Assembler Syntax

The SunOS 5.x SPARC assembler takes assembly language programs, as specified in this document, and produces relocatable object files for processing by the SunOS 5.x SPARC link editor. The assembly language described in this document corresponds to the SPARC instruction set defined in the SPARC Architecture Manual (Version 8 and Version 9) and is intended for use on machines that use the SPARC architecture.

This chapter is organized into the following sections:
