<h5 class="subsubsection">9.17.4.1 <code>callj</code></h5>

<p><a name="index-g_t_0040code_007bcallj_007d_002c-i960-pseudo_002dopcode-1199"></a><a name="index-i960-_0040code_007bcallj_007d-pseudo_002dopcode-1200"></a>You can write <code>callj</code> to have the assembler or the linker determine
the most appropriate form of subroutine call: &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">call</span></samp>&rsquo;,
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">bal</span></samp>&rsquo;, or &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">calls</span></samp>&rsquo;.  If the assembly source contains
enough information&mdash;a &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.leafproc</span></samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.sysproc</span></samp>&rsquo; directive
defining the operand&mdash;then <code>as</code> translates the
<code>callj</code>; if not, it simply emits the <code>callj</code>, leaving it
for the linker to resolve.
