The standard Motorola syntax for this chip differs from the syntax
already discussed (see Syntax). as
can
accept Motorola syntax for operands, even if mit syntax is used for
other operands in the same instruction. The two kinds of syntax are
fully compatible.
In the following table apc stands for any of the address registers (`%a0' through `%a7'), the program counter (`%pc'), the zero-address relative to the program counter (`%zpc'), or a suppressed address register (`%za0' through `%za7'). The use of size means one of `w' or `l', and it may always be omitted along with the leading dot. The use of scale means one of `1', `2', `4', or `8', and it may always be omitted along with the leading asterisk.
The following additional addressing modes are understood:
%a6
is also known as `%fp', the Frame Pointer.
The number may also appear within the parentheses, as in
`(number,%a0)'. When used with the pc, the
number may be omitted (with an address register, omitting the
number produces Address Register Indirect mode).
The number may be omitted, or it may appear within the
parentheses. The apc may be omitted. The register and the
apc may appear in either order. If both apc and
register are address registers, and the size and scale
are omitted, then the first register is taken as the base register, and
the second as the index register.
The onumber, or the register, or both, may be omitted.
Either the number or the apc may be omitted, but not both.
The number, or the apc, or the register, or any two of them, may be omitted. The onumber may be omitted. The register and the apc may appear in either order. If both apc and register are address registers, and the size and scale are omitted, then the first register is taken as the base register, and the second as the index register.
