<h5 class="subsubsection">9.20.2.2 Relocatable Expression Modifiers</h5>
<p><a name="index-LM32-modifiers-1254"></a><a name="index-syntax_002c-LM32-1255"></a>
The assembler supports several modifiers when using relocatable addresses
in LM32 instruction operands. The general syntax is the following:
<pre class="smallexample"> modifier(relocatable-expression)
</pre>
<a name="index-symbol-modifiers-1256"></a>
<dl>
<dt><code>lo</code><dd>
This modifier allows you to use bits 0 through 15 of
an address expression as 16 bit relocatable expression.
<br><dt><code>hi</code><dd>
This modifier allows you to use bits 16 through 23 of an address expression
as 16 bit relocatable expression.
<p>For example
<pre class="smallexample"> ori r4, r4, lo(sym+10)
orhi r4, r4, hi(sym+10)
</pre>
<br><dt><code>gp</code><dd>
This modified creates a 16-bit relocatable expression that is
the offset of the symbol from the global pointer.
<pre class="smallexample"> mva r4, gp(sym)
</pre>
<br><dt><code>got</code><dd>
This modifier places a symbol in the GOT and creates a 16-bit
relocatable expression that is the offset into the GOT of this
symbol.
<pre class="smallexample"> lw r4, (gp+got(sym))
</pre>
<br><dt><code>gotofflo16</code><dd>
This modifier allows you to use the bits 0 through 15 of an
address which is an offset from the GOT.
<br><dt><code>gotoffhi16</code><dd>
This modifier allows you to use the bits 16 through 31 of an
address which is an offset from the GOT.
<pre class="smallexample"> orhi r4, r4, gotoffhi16(lsym)
addi r4, r4, gotofflo16(lsym)
</pre>
</dl>
