DESCRIPTION
GNU as 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 pseudo-ops) and assembler syntax.
as is primarily intended to assemble the output of the GNU C
compiler "gcc" for use by the linker "ld". Nevertheless,
we've tried to make as assemble correctly everything that
other assemblers for the same machine would assemble. Any
exceptions are documented explicitly. This doesn't mean as
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 as it assembles exactly one source
program. The source program is made up of one or more
files. (The standard input is also a file.)
You give as a command line that has zero or more input file
names. The input files are read (from left file name to
right). A command line argument (in any position) that has
no special meaning is taken to be an input file name.
If you give as no file names it attempts to read one input
file from the as standard input, which is normally your
terminal. You may have to type ctl-D to tell as there is no
more program to assemble.
Use -- if you need to explicitly name the standard input
file in your command line.
If the source is empty, as produces a small, empty object
file.
as may write warnings and error messages to the standard
error file (usually your terminal). This should not happen
when a compiler runs as automatically. Warnings report an
assumption made so that as could keep assembling a flawed
program; errors report a grave problem that stops the
assembly.
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 5
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
If you are invoking as via the GNU C compiler, you can use
the -Wa option to pass arguments through to the assembler.
The assembler arguments must be separated from each other
(and the -Wa) by commas. For example:
gcc -c -g -O -Wa,-alh,-L file.c
This passes two options to the assembler: -alh (emit a
listing to standard output with high-level and assembly
source) and -L (retain local symbols in the symbol table).
Usually you do not need to use this -Wa mechanism, since
many compiler command-line options are automatically passed
to the assembler by the compiler. (You can call the GNU
compiler driver with the -v option to see precisely what
options it passes to each compilation pass, including the
assembler.)
OPTIONS
@file
Read command-line options from file. The options read
are inserted in place of the original @file option. If
file does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option
will be treated literally, and not removed.
Options in file are separated by whitespace. A
whitespace character may be included in an option by
surrounding the entire option in either single or double
quotes. Any character (including a backslash) may be
included by prefixing the character to be included with
a backslash. The file may itself contain additional
@file options; any such options will be processed
recursively.
-a[cdghlmns]
Turn on listings, in any of a variety of ways:
-ac omit false conditionals
-ad omit debugging directives
-ag include general information, like as version and
options passed
-ah include high-level source
-al include assembly
-am include macro expansions
-an omit forms processing
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 6
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
-as include symbols
=file
set the name of the listing file
You may combine these options; for example, use -aln for
assembly listing without forms processing. The =file
option, if used, must be the last one. By itself, -a
defaults to -ahls.
--alternate
Begin in alternate macro mode.
--compress-debug-sections
Compress DWARF debug sections using zlib. The debug
sections are renamed to begin with .zdebug, and the
resulting object file may not be compatible with older
linkers and object file utilities.
--nocompress-debug-sections
Do not compress DWARF debug sections. This is the
default.
-D Ignored. This option is accepted for script
compatibility with calls to other assemblers.
--debug-prefix-map old=new
When assembling files in directory old, record debugging
information describing them as in new instead.
--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. The value of the
symbol can be overridden inside a source file via the
use of a ".set" pseudo-op.
-f "fast"---skip whitespace and comment preprocessing
(assume source is compiler output).
-g
--gen-debug
Generate debugging information for each assembler source
line using whichever debug format is preferred by the
target. This currently means either STABS, ECOFF or
DWARF2.
--gstabs
Generate stabs debugging information for each assembler
line. This may help debugging assembler code, if the
debugger can handle it.
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 7
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
--gstabs+
Generate stabs debugging information for each assembler
line, with GNU extensions that probably only gdb can
handle, and that could make other debuggers crash or
refuse to read your program. This may help debugging
assembler code. Currently the only GNU extension is the
location of the current working directory at assembling
time.
--gdwarf-2
Generate DWARF2 debugging information for each assembler
line. This may help debugging assembler code, if the
debugger can handle it. Note---this option is only
supported by some targets, not all of them.
--size-check=error
--size-check=warning
Issue an error or warning for invalid ELF .size
directive.
--help
Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
--target-help
Print a summary of all target specific options and exit.
-I dir
Add directory dir to the search list for ".include"
directives.
-J Don't warn about signed overflow.
-K Issue warnings when difference tables altered for long
displacements.
-L
--keep-locals
Keep (in the symbol table) local symbols. These symbols
start with system-specific local label prefixes,
typically .L for ELF systems or L for traditional a.out
systems.
--listing-lhs-width=number
Set the maximum width, in words, of the output data
column for an assembler listing to number.
--listing-lhs-width2=number
Set the maximum width, in words, of the output data
column for continuation lines in an assembler listing to
number.
--listing-rhs-width=number
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 8
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
Set the maximum width of an input source line, as
displayed in a listing, to number bytes.
--listing-cont-lines=number
Set the maximum number of lines printed in a listing for
a single line of input to number + 1.
-o objfile
Name the object-file output from as objfile.
-R Fold the data section into the text section.
Set the default size of GAS's hash tables to a prime
number close to number. Increasing this value can
reduce the length of time it takes the assembler to
perform its tasks, at the expense of increasing the
assembler's memory requirements. Similarly reducing
this value can reduce the memory requirements at the
expense of speed.
--reduce-memory-overheads
This option reduces GAS's memory requirements, at the
expense of making the assembly processes slower.
Currently this switch is a synonym for --hash-size=4051,
but in the future it may have other effects as well.
--statistics
Print the maximum space (in bytes) and total time (in
seconds) used by assembly.
--strip-local-absolute
Remove local absolute symbols from the outgoing symbol
table.
-v
-version
Print the as version.
--version
Print the as version and exit.
-W
--no-warn
Suppress warning messages.
--fatal-warnings
Treat warnings as errors.
--warn
Don't suppress warning messages or treat them as errors.
-w Ignored.
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 9
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
-x Ignored.
-Z Generate an object file even after errors.
-- | files ...
Standard input, or source files to assemble.
The following options are available when as is configured
for the 64-bit mode of the ARM Architecture (AArch64).
-EB This option specifies that the output generated by the
assembler should be marked as being encoded for a big-
endian processor.
-EL This option specifies that the output generated by the
assembler should be marked as being encoded for a
little-endian processor.
The following options are available when as is configured
for an Alpha processor.
-mcpu
This option specifies the target processor. If an
attempt is made to assemble an instruction which will
not execute on the target processor, the assembler may
either expand the instruction as a macro or issue an
error message. This option is equivalent to the ".arch"
directive.
The following processor names are recognized: 21064,
"21064a", 21066, 21068, 21164, "21164a", "21164pc",
21264, "21264a", "21264b", "ev4", "ev5", "lca45", "ev5",
"ev56", "pca56", "ev6", "ev67", "ev68". The special
name "all" may be used to allow the assembler to accept
instructions valid for any Alpha processor.
In order to support existing practice in OSF/1 with
respect to ".arch", and existing practice within MILO
(the Linux ARC bootloader), the numbered processor names
(e.g. 21064) enable the processor-specific PALcode
instructions, while the "electro-vlasic" names (e.g.
"ev4") do not.
-mdebug
-no-mdebug
Enables or disables the generation of ".mdebug"
encapsulation for stabs directives and procedure
descriptors. The default is to automatically enable
".mdebug" when the first stabs directive is seen.
-relax
This option forces all relocations to be put into the
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 10
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
object file, instead of saving space and resolving some
relocations at assembly time. Note that this option
does not propagate all symbol arithmetic into the object
file, because not all symbol arithmetic can be
represented. However, the option can still be useful in
specific applications.
-replace
-noreplace
Enables or disables the optimization of procedure calls,
both at assemblage and at link time. These options are
only available for VMS targets and "-replace" is the
default. See section 1.4.1 of the OpenVMS Linker
Utility Manual.
-g This option is used when the compiler generates debug
information. When gcc is using mips-tfile to generate
debug information for ECOFF, local labels must be passed
through to the object file. Otherwise this option has
no effect.
-Gsize
A local common symbol larger than size is placed in
".bss", while smaller symbols are placed in ".sbss".
-F
-32addr
These options are ignored for backward compatibility.
The following options are available when as is configured
for an ARC processor.
-marc[5|6|7|8]
This option selects the core processor variant.
-EB | -EL
Select either big-endian (-EB) or little-endian (-EL)
output.
The following options are available when as is configured
for the ARM processor family.
-mcpu=processor[+extension...]
Specify which ARM processor variant is the target.
-march=architecture[+extension...]
Specify which ARM architecture variant is used by the
target.
-mfpu=floating-point-format
Select which Floating Point architecture is the target.
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 11
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
-mfloat-abi=abi
Select which floating point ABI is in use.
-mthumb
Enable Thumb only instruction decoding.
-mapcs-32 | -mapcs-26 | -mapcs-float | -mapcs-reentrant
Select which procedure calling convention is in use.
-EB | -EL
Select either big-endian (-EB) or little-endian (-EL)
output.
-mthumb-interwork
Specify that the code has been generated with
interworking between Thumb and ARM code in mind.
-k Specify that PIC code has been generated.
The following options are available when as is configured
for the Blackfin processor family.
-mcpu=processor[-sirevision]
This option specifies the target processor. The
optional sirevision is not used in assembler. It's here
such that GCC can easily pass down its "-mcpu=" option.
The assembler will issue an error message if an attempt
is made to assemble an instruction which will not
execute on the target processor. The following
processor names are recognized: "bf504", "bf506",
"bf512", "bf514", "bf516", "bf518", "bf522", "bf523",
"bf524", "bf525", "bf526", "bf527", "bf531", "bf532",
"bf533", "bf534", "bf535" (not implemented yet),
"bf536", "bf537", "bf538", "bf539", "bf542", "bf542m",
"bf544", "bf544m", "bf547", "bf547m", "bf548", "bf548m",
"bf549", "bf549m", "bf561", and "bf592".
-mfdpic
Assemble for the FDPIC ABI.
-mno-fdpic
-mnopic
Disable -mfdpic.
See the info pages for documentation of the CRIS-specific
options.
The following options are available when as is configured
for a D10V processor.
-O Optimize output by parallelizing instructions.
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 12
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
The following options are available when as is configured
for a D30V processor.
-O Optimize output by parallelizing instructions.
-n Warn when nops are generated.
-N Warn when a nop after a 32-bit multiply instruction is
generated.
The following options are available when as is configured
for an Epiphany processor.
-mepiphany
Specifies that the both 32 and 16 bit instructions are
allowed. This is the default behavior.
-mepiphany16
Restricts the permitted instructions to just the 16 bit
set.
The following options are available when as is configured
for an i386 processor.
--32 | --x32 | --64
Select the word size, either 32 bits or 64 bits. --32
implies Intel i386 architecture, while --x32 and --64
imply AMD x86-64 architecture with 32-bit or 64-bit
word-size respectively.
These options are only available with the ELF object
file format, and require that the necessary BFD support
has been included (on a 32-bit platform you have to add
--enable-64-bit-bfd to configure enable 64-bit usage and
use x86-64 as target platform).
-n By default, x86 GAS replaces multiple nop instructions
used for alignment within code sections with multi-byte
nop instructions such as leal 0(%esi,1),%esi. This
switch disables the optimization.
--divide
On SVR4-derived platforms, the character / is treated as
a comment character, which means that it cannot be used
in expressions. The --divide option turns / into a
normal character. This does not disable / at the
beginning of a line starting a comment, or affect using
# for starting a comment.
-march=CPU[+EXTENSION...]
This option specifies the target processor. The
assembler will issue an error message if an attempt is
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 13
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
made to assemble an instruction which will not execute
on the target processor. The following processor names
are recognized: "i8086", "i186", "i286", "i386", "i486",
"i586", "i686", "pentium", "pentiumpro", "pentiumii",
"pentiumiii", "pentium4", "prescott", "nocona", "core",
"core2", "corei7", "l1om", "k1om", "k6", "k6_2",
"athlon", "opteron", "k8", "amdfam10", "bdver1",
"bdver2", "bdver3", "btver1", "btver2", "generic32" and
"generic64".
In addition to the basic instruction set, the assembler
can be told to accept various extension mnemonics. For
example, "-march=i686+sse4+vmx" extends i686 with sse4
and vmx. The following extensions are currently
supported: 8087, 287, 387, "no87", "mmx", "nommx",
"sse", "sse2", "sse3", "ssse3", "sse4.1", "sse4.2",
"sse4", "nosse", "avx", "avx2", "adx", "rdseed",
"prfchw", "noavx", "vmx", "vmfunc", "smx", "xsave",
"xsaveopt", "aes", "pclmul", "fsgsbase", "rdrnd",
"f16c", "bmi2", "fma", "movbe", "ept", "lzcnt", "hle",
"rtm", "invpcid", "clflush", "lwp", "fma4", "xop",
"syscall", "rdtscp", "3dnow", "3dnowa", "sse4a", "sse5",
"svme", "abm" and "padlock". Note that rather than
extending a basic instruction set, the extension

--no-construct-floats
The --no-construct-floats option disables the
construction of double width floating point constants by
loading the two halves of the value into the two single
width floating point registers that make up the double
width register. By default --construct-floats is
selected, allowing construction of these floating point
constants.
--emulation=name
This option causes as to emulate as configured for some

other target, in all respects, including output format
(choosing between ELF and ECOFF only), handling of
pseudo-opcodes which may generate debugging information
or store symbol table information, and default
endianness. The available configuration names are:
mipsecoff, mipself, mipslecoff, mipsbecoff, mipslelf,
mipsbelf. The first two do not alter the default
endianness from that of the primary target for which the
assembler was configured; the others change the default
to little- or big-endian as indicated by the b or l in
the name. Using -EB or -EL will override the endianness
selection in any case.
This option is currently supported only when the primary
target as is configured for is a MIPS ELF or ECOFF
target. Furthermore, the primary target or others
specified with --enable-targets=... at configuration
time must include support for the other format, if both
are to be available. For example, the Irix 5
configuration includes support for both.
Eventually, this option will support more
configurations, with more fine-grained control over the
assembler's behavior, and will be supported for more
processors.
-nocpp
as ignores this option. It is accepted for
compatibility with the native tools.
--trap
--no-trap

"c64x", "c64x+", "c67x", "c67x+", "c674x".
-mdsbt
-mno-dsbt
The -mdsbt option causes the assembler to generate the
"Tag_ABI_DSBT" attribute with a value of 1, indicating
that the code is using DSBT addressing. The -mno-dsbt
option, the default, causes the tag to have a value of
0, indicating that the code does not use DSBT
addressing. The linker will emit a warning if objects
of different type (DSBT and non-DSBT) are linked
together.
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 26
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
-mpid=no
-mpid=near
-mpid=far
The -mpid= option causes the assembler to generate the
"Tag_ABI_PID" attribute with a value indicating the form
of data addressing used by the code. -mpid=no, the
default, indicates position-dependent data addressing,
-mpid=near indicates position-independent addressing
with GOT accesses using near DP addressing, and
-mpid=far indicates position-independent addressing with
GOT accesses using far DP addressing. The linker will
emit a warning if objects built with different settings
of this option are linked together.
-mpic
-mno-pic
The -mpic option causes the assembler to generate the
"Tag_ABI_PIC" attribute with a value of 1, indicating
that the code is using position-independent code
addressing, The "-mno-pic" option, the default, causes
the tag to have a value of 0, indicating position-
dependent code addressing. The linker will emit a
warning if objects of different type (position-dependent
and position-independent) are linked together.
-mbig-endian
-mlittle-endian
Generate code for the specified endianness. The default
is little-endian.
The following options are available when as is configured
for a TILE-Gx processor.

little-endian (-EL).
The following options are available when as is configured
for an Xtensa processor.
--text-section-literals | --no-text-section-literals
Control the treatment of literal pools. The default is
--no-text-section-literals, which places literals in
separate sections in the output file. This allows the
literal pool to be placed in a data RAM/ROM. With
--text-section-literals, the literals are interspersed
in the text section in order to keep them as close as
possible to their references. This may be necessary for
large assembly files, where the literals would otherwise
binutils-2.23.1 Last change: 2012-11-13 27
GNU Development Tools AS(1)
be out of range of the "L32R" instructions in the text
section. These options only affect literals referenced
via PC-relative "L32R" instructions; literals for
absolute mode "L32R" instructions are handled
separately.
--absolute-literals | --no-absolute-literals
Indicate to the assembler whether "L32R" instructions
use absolute or PC-relative addressing. If the
processor includes the absolute addressing option, the
default is to use absolute "L32R" relocations.
Otherwise, only the PC-relative "L32R" relocations can
be used.
--target-align | --no-target-align
Enable or disable automatic alignment to reduce branch
penalties at some expense in code size. This
optimization is enabled by default. Note that the
assembler will always align instructions like "LOOP"
that have fixed alignment requirements.
--longcalls | --no-longcalls
Enable or disable transformation of call instructions to
allow calls across a greater range of addresses. This
option should be used when call targets can potentially
be out of range. It may degrade both code size and
performance, but the linker can generally optimize away
the unnecessary overhead when a call ends up within
range. The default is --no-longcalls.
--transform | --no-transform
Enable or disable all assembler transformations of
Xtensa instructions, including both relaxation and
optimization. The default is --transform;
--no-transform should only be used in the rare cases
when the instructions must be exactly as specified in
the assembly source. Using --no-transform causes out of
range instruction operands to be errors.
--rename-section oldname=newname
Rename the oldname section to newname. This option can
be used multiple times to rename multiple sections.
The following options are available when as is configured
for a Z80 family processor.
