(parse_args): Add --no-warn, --warn, --fatal-warnings, which become 'W', OPTION_WARN, and OPTION_WARN_FATAL. (parse_args): Parse the new options. (main): If there were warnings, and --fatal-warnings was specified, print an error. * as.h: New variable, flag_fatal_warnings, for new option.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
GNU \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& is really a family of assemblers.
|
|
If you use (or have used) the GNU assembler on one architecture, you
|
|
should find a fairly similar environment when you use it on another
|
|
architecture. Each version has much in common with the others,
|
|
including object file formats, most assembler directives (often called
|
|
\c
|
|
.I pseudo-ops)\c
|
|
\& and assembler syntax.
|
|
|
|
For information on the syntax and pseudo-ops used by GNU \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\&, see `\|\c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\|' entry in \c
|
|
.B info \c
|
|
(or the manual \c
|
|
.I
|
|
.I
|
|
Using as: The GNU Assembler\c
|
|
\&).
|
|
|
|
\c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& is primarily intended to assemble the output of the GNU C
|
|
compiler \c
|
|
.B gcc\c
|
|
\& for use by the linker \c
|
|
.B ld\c
|
|
\&. Nevertheless,
|
|
we've tried to make \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& assemble correctly everything that the native
|
|
assembler would.
|
|
This doesn't mean \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& always uses the same syntax as another
|
|
assembler for the same architecture; for example, we know of several
|
|
incompatible versions of 680x0 assembly language syntax.
|
|
|
|
Each time you run \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& it assembles exactly one source
|
|
program. The source program is made up of one or more files.
|
|
(The standard input is also a file.)
|
|
|
|
If \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& is given no file names it attempts to read one input file
|
|
from the \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& standard input, which is normally your terminal. You
|
|
may have to type \c
|
|
.B ctl-D\c
|
|
\& to tell \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& there is no more program
|
|
to assemble. Use `\|\c
|
|
.B \-\^\-\c
|
|
\|' if you need to explicitly name the standard input file
|
|
in your command line.
|
|
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& may write warnings and error messages to the standard error
|
|
file (usually your terminal). This should not happen when \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& is
|
|
run automatically by a compiler. Warnings report an assumption made so
|
|
that \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& could keep assembling a flawed program; errors report a
|
|
grave problem that stops the assembly.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR \-a
|
|
Turn on assembly listings. There are various suboptions.
|
|
.B d
|
|
omits debugging directives.
|
|
.B h
|
|
includes the high level source code; this is only available if the
|
|
source file can be found, and the code was compiled with
|
|
.B \-g.
|
|
.B l
|
|
includes an assembly listing.
|
|
.B n
|
|
omits forms processing.
|
|
.B s
|
|
includes a symbol listing.
|
|
.B =
|
|
.I file
|
|
sets the listing file name; this must be the last suboption.
|
|
The default suboptions are
|
|
.B hls.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-D
|
|
This option is accepted only for script compatibility with calls to
|
|
other assemblers; it has no effect on \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\&.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-defsym SYM=VALUE
|
|
Define the symbol SYM to be VALUE before assembling the input file.
|
|
VALUE must be an integer constant. As in C, a leading 0x indicates a
|
|
hexadecimal value, and a leading 0 indicates an octal value.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-f
|
|
``fast''--skip preprocessing (assume source is compiler output).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-I\ " path
|
|
Add
|
|
.I path
|
|
to the search list for
|
|
.B .include
|
|
directives.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-gstabs
|
|
Generate stabs debugging information for each assembler line. This
|
|
may help debugging assembler code, if the debugger can handle it.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-K
|
|
Issue warnings when difference tables altered for long displacements.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-L
|
|
Keep (in symbol table) local symbols, starting with `\|\c
|
|
.B L\c
|
|
\|'
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-M, \-\-mri
|
|
Assemble in MRI compatibility mode.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-o\ " objfile
|
|
Name the object-file output from \c
|
|
.B as
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-R
|
|
Fold data section into text section
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-traditional\-format
|
|
Use same format as native assembler, when possible.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-v
|
|
Announce \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& version
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-W, \-\-no-warn
|
|
Suppress warning messages.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-fatal\-warnings
|
|
Consider warnings to be fatal.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-\-warn
|
|
Just warn on warnings.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.IR "\-\^\-" "\ |\ " "files\|.\|.\|."
|
|
Source files to assemble, or standard input (\c
|
|
.BR "\-\^\-" ")"
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-A var
|
|
.I
|
|
(When configured for Intel 960.)
|
|
Specify which variant of the 960 architecture is the target.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-b
|
|
.I
|
|
(When configured for Intel 960.)
|
|
Add code to collect statistics about branches taken.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-no-relax
|
|
.I
|
|
(When configured for Intel 960.)
|
|
Do not alter compare-and-branch instructions for long displacements;
|
|
error if necessary.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-l
|
|
.I
|
|
(When configured for Motorola 68000).
|
|
.br
|
|
Shorten references to undefined symbols, to one word instead of two.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-mc68000" "\||\|" "\-mc68010" "\||\|" "\-mc68020"
|
|
.I
|
|
(When configured for Motorola 68000).
|
|
.br
|
|
Specify what processor in the 68000 family is the target (default 68020)
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
Options may be in any order, and may be
|
|
before, after, or between file names. The order of file names is
|
|
significant.
|
|
|
|
`\|\c
|
|
.B \-\^\-\c
|
|
\|' (two hyphens) by itself names the standard input file
|
|
explicitly, as one of the files for \c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\& to assemble.
|
|
|
|
Except for `\|\c
|
|
.B \-\^\-\c
|
|
\|' any command line argument that begins with a
|
|
hyphen (`\|\c
|
|
.B \-\c
|
|
\|') is an option. Each option changes the behavior of
|
|
\c
|
|
.B as\c
|
|
\&. No option changes the way another option works. An
|
|
option is a `\|\c
|
|
.B \-\c
|
|
\|' followed by one or more letters; the case of
|
|
the letter is important. All options are optional.
|
|
|
|
The `\|\c
|
|
.B \-o\c
|
|
\|' option expects exactly one file name to follow. The file
|
|
name may either immediately follow the option's letter (compatible
|
|
with older assemblers) or it may be the next command argument (GNU
|
|
standard).
|
|
|
|
These two command lines are equivalent:
|
|
.br
|
|
.B
|
|
as\ \ \-o\ \ my\-object\-file.o\ \ mumble.s
|
|
.br
|
