@ -181,3 +254,46 @@ in which it will assemble instructions for the MIPS 16 processor. Use
@samp{.set nomips16} to return to normal 32 bit mode.
Traditional @sc{mips} assemblers do not support this directive.
@node MIPS autoextend
@section Directives for extending MIPS 16 bit instructions
@kindex @code{.set autoextend}
@kindex @code{.set noautoextend}
By default, MIPS 16 instructions are automatically extended to 32 bits
when necessary. The directive @samp{.set noautoextend} will turn this
off. When @samp{.set noautoextend} is in effect, any 32 bit instruction
must be explicitly extended with the @samp{.e} modifier (e.g.,
@samp{li.e $4,1000}). The directive @samp{.set autoextend} may be used
to once again automatically extend instructions when necessary.
This directive is only meaningful when in MIPS 16 mode. Traditional
@sc{mips} assemblers do not support this directive.
@node MIPS insn
@section Directive to mark data as an instruction
@kindex @code{.insn}
The @code{.insn} directive tells @code{@value{AS}} that the following
data is actually instructions. This makes a difference in MIPS 16 mode:
when loading the address of a label which precedes instructions,
@code{@value{AS}} automatically adds 1 to the value, so that jumping to
the loaded address will do the right thing.
@node MIPS option stack
@section Directives to save and restore options
@cindex MIPS option stack
@kindex @code{.set push}
@kindex @code{.set pop}
The directives @code{.set push} and @code{.set pop} may be used to save
and restore the current settings for all the options which are
controlled by @code{.set}. The @code{.set push} directive saves the
current settings on a stack. The @code{.set pop} directive pops the
stack and restores the settings.
These directives can be useful inside an macro which must change an
option such as the ISA level or instruction reordering but does not want
to change the state of the code which invoked the macro.
Traditional @sc{mips} assemblers do not support these directives.
