6.58.3 Altera Nios II Built-in Functions

These built-in functions are available for the Altera Nios II family of processors.

The following built-in functions are always available. They all generate the machine instruction that is part of the name.

     int __builtin_ldbio (volatile const void *)
     int __builtin_ldbuio (volatile const void *)
     int __builtin_ldhio (volatile const void *)
     int __builtin_ldhuio (volatile const void *)
     int __builtin_ldwio (volatile const void *)
     void __builtin_stbio (volatile void *, int)
     void __builtin_sthio (volatile void *, int)
     void __builtin_stwio (volatile void *, int)
     void __builtin_sync (void)
     int __builtin_rdctl (int)
     void __builtin_wrctl (int, int)

The following built-in functions are always available. They all generate a Nios II Custom Instruction. The name of the function represents the types that the function takes and returns. The letter before the n is the return type or void if absent. The n represents the first parameter to all the custom instructions, the custom instruction number. The two letters after the n represent the up to two parameters to the function.

The letters represent the following data types:

<no letter>

void for return type and no parameter for parameter types.

i

int for return type and parameter type

f

float for return type and parameter type

p

void * for return type and parameter type

And the function names are:
