|
|
<p>The <em>output template</em> is a string which specifies how to output the
|
|
assembler code for an instruction pattern. Most of the template is a
|
|
fixed string which is output literally. The character ‘<samp>%</samp>’ is used
|
|
to specify where to substitute an operand; it can also be used to
|
|
identify places where different variants of the assembler require
|
|
different syntax.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>In the simplest case, a ‘<samp>%</samp>’ followed by a digit <var>n</var> says to output
|
|
operand <var>n</var> at that point in the string.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%</samp>’ followed by a letter and a digit says to output an operand in an
|
|
alternate fashion. Four letters have standard, built-in meanings described
|
|
below. The machine description macro <code>PRINT_OPERAND</code> can define
|
|
additional letters with nonstandard meanings.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%c<var>digit</var></samp>’ can be used to substitute an operand that is a
|
|
constant value without the syntax that normally indicates an immediate
|
|
operand.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%n<var>digit</var></samp>’ is like ‘<samp>%c<var>digit</var></samp>’ except that the value of
|
|
the constant is negated before printing.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%a<var>digit</var></samp>’ can be used to substitute an operand as if it were a
|
|
memory reference, with the actual operand treated as the address. This may
|
|
be useful when outputting a “load address” instruction, because often the
|
|
assembler syntax for such an instruction requires you to write the operand
|
|
as if it were a memory reference.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%l<var>digit</var></samp>’ is used to substitute a <code>label_ref</code> into a jump
|
|
instruction.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%=</samp>’ outputs a number which is unique to each instruction in the
|
|
entire compilation. This is useful for making local labels to be
|
|
referred to more than once in a single template that generates multiple
|
|
assembler instructions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>‘<samp>%</samp>’ followed by a punctuation character specifies a substitution that
|
|
does not use an operand. Only one case is standard: ‘<samp>%%</samp>’ outputs a
|
|
‘<samp>%</samp>’ into the assembler code. Other nonstandard cases can be
|
|
defined in the <code>PRINT_OPERAND</code> macro. You must also define
|
|
which punctuation characters are valid with the
|
|
<code>PRINT_OPERAND_PUNCT_VALID_P</code> macro.
|
|
</p>

|
|
<p>The template may generate multiple assembler instructions. Write the text
|
|
for the instructions, with ‘<samp>\;</samp>’ between them.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="index-matching-operands"></a>
|
|
<p>When the RTL contains two operands which are required by constraint to match
|
|
each other, the output template must refer only to the lower-numbered operand.
|
|
Matching operands are not always identical, and the rest of the compiler
|
|
arranges to put the proper RTL expression for printing into the lower-numbered
|
|
operand.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>One use of nonstandard letters or punctuation following ‘<samp>%</samp>’ is to
|
|
distinguish between different assembler languages for the same machine; for
|
|
example, Motorola syntax versus MIT syntax for the 68000. Motorola syntax
|
|
requires periods in most opcode names, while MIT syntax does not. For
|
|
example, the opcode ‘<samp>movel</samp>’ in MIT syntax is ‘<samp>move.l</samp>’ in Motorola
|
|
syntax. The same file of patterns is used for both kinds of output syntax,
|
|
but the character sequence ‘<samp>%.</samp>’ is used in each place where Motorola
|
|
syntax wants a period. The <code>PRINT_OPERAND</code> macro for Motorola syntax
|
|
defines the sequence to output a period; the macro for MIT syntax defines
|
|
it to do nothing.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="index-_0023-in-template"></a>
|
|
<p>As a special case, a template consisting of the single character <code>#</code>
|
|
instructs the compiler to first split the insn, and then output the
|
|
resulting instructions separately. This helps eliminate redundancy in the
|
|
output templates. If you have a <code>define_insn</code> that needs to emit
|
|
multiple assembler instructions, and there is a matching <code>define_split</code>
|
|
already defined, then you can simply use <code>#</code> as the output template
|
|
instead of writing an output template that emits the multiple assembler
|
|
instructions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If the macro <code>ASSEMBLER_DIALECT</code> is defined, you can use construct
|
|
of the form ‘<samp>{option0|option1|option2}</samp>’ in the templates. These
|
|
describe multiple variants of assembler language syntax.
