The .module directive allows command-line options to be set directly
from assembly. The format of the directive matches the .set
directive but only those options which are relevant to a whole module are
supported. The effect of a .module directive is the same as the
corresponding command-line option. Where .set directives support
returning to a default then the .module directives do not as they
define the defaults.
These module-level directives must appear first in assembly.
Traditional MIPS assemblers do not support this directive.
The directive .set insn32 makes the assembler only use 32-bit
instruction encodings when generating code for the microMIPS processor.
This directive inhibits the use of any 16-bit instructions from that
point on in the assembly. The .set noinsn32 directive allows
16-bit instructions to be accepted.
Traditional MIPS assemblers do not support this directive.
