|
|
The <code>dn</code> and <code>qn</code> directives are used to create typed
|
|
and/or indexed register aliases for use in Advanced SIMD Extension
|
|
(Neon) instructions. The former should be used to create aliases
|
|
of double-precision registers, and the latter to create aliases of
|
|
quad-precision registers.
|
|
|
|
<p>If these directives are used to create typed aliases, those aliases can
|
|
be used in Neon instructions instead of writing types after the mnemonic
|
|
or after each operand. For example:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> x .dn d2.f32
|
|
y .dn d3.f32
|
|
z .dn d4.f32[1]
|
|
vmul x,y,z
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>This is equivalent to writing the following:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> vmul.f32 d2,d3,d4[1]
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>Aliases created using <code>dn</code> or <code>qn</code> can be destroyed using
|
|
<code>unreq</code>.

all remaining, un-empty literal pools will automatically be dumped.

<p>Note - older versions of <code>GAS</code> would dump the current literal

pool any time a section change occurred. This is no longer done, since

it prevents accurate control of the placement of literal pools.

|
|
Thumb encoded function. This information is necessary in order to allow
|
|
the assembler and linker to generate correct code for interworking
|
|
between Arm and Thumb instructions and should be used even if
|
|
interworking is not going to be performed. The presence of this
|
|
directive also implies <code>.thumb</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>This directive is not neccessary when generating EABI objects. On these
|
|
targets the encoding is implicit when generating Thumb code.

<p><a name="index-g_t_0040code_007b_002ethumb_005fset_007d-directive_002c-ARM-768"></a><br><dt><code>.thumb_set</code><dd>This performs the equivalent of a <code>.set</code> directive in that it
|
|
creates a symbol which is an alias for another symbol (possibly not yet
|
|
defined). This directive also has the added property in that it marks
|
|
the aliased symbol as being a thumb function entry point, in the same
|
|
way that the <code>.thumb_func</code> directive does.

|
|
trampoline. Normally the trampoline is provided by the linker, and
|
|
this directive is not needed.

|
|
<code>req</code>, <code>dn</code> or <code>qn</code> directives. For example:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> foo .req r0
|
|
.unreq foo
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>An error occurs if the name is undefined. Note - this pseudo op can
|
|
be used to delete builtin in register name aliases (eg 'r0'). This
|
|
should only be done if it is really necessary.

|
|
the stack pointer by <var>offset</var> bytes.
|
|
|
|
<p>For example <code>.unwind_raw 4, 0xb1, 0x01</code> is equivalent to
|
|
<code>.save {r0}</code>

using FLDMD. Also works for VFPv3 registers

that are to be restored using VLDM.

used in favour of <code>.save</code> for saving VFP registers for ARMv6 and above.
