.TH NS_ASS VI

.SH NAME
 | 
						|
ns_as \- National Semiconductor 16032 assembler/linker
 | 
						|
.SH SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
\&..../lib/ns/as [options] argument ...
 | 
						|
.SH DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
The assembler for the National Semiconductor 16032 is based
 | 
						|
on the universal assembler \fIuni_ass\fP(VI).
 | 
						|
The mnemonics for the instructions are taken from the NS-16000
 | 
						|
Programmers Reference Manual.
 | 
						|
The syntax of the instruction operands is similar to the syntax used
 | 
						|
in that manual,
 | 
						|
although the meaning is sometimes quite different.
 | 
						|
The cross assembler issued by National Semiconductor
 | 
						|
associates a type (sb,..) with each symbol
 | 
						|
and automatically generates sb offset mode for symbols of type sb.
 | 
						|
This assembler does not record the types,
 | 
						|
each symbol simply produces an untyped value.
 | 
						|
.sp 1
 | 
						|
The possible operands are:
 | 
						|
.IP "general registers
 | 
						|
These are called r0, r1, r2, r3, r4, r5, r6 and r7.
 | 
						|
The symbol REG is used to indicate use of any of these 8 registers
 | 
						|
in other operands.
 | 
						|
.IP "floating point registers
 | 
						|
These are called f0, f1, f2, f3, f4, f5, f6 and f7.
 | 
						|
.IP "dedicated registers
 | 
						|
All types of dedicated registers can be used with the appropriate instructions.
 | 
						|
Examples: sb, fp, intbase, ptb1.
 | 
						|
.IP expr(REG)
 | 
						|
register relative
 | 
						|
.IP expr(fp)
 | 
						|
frame pointer relative
 | 
						|
.IP expr(sb)
 | 
						|
static base relative
 | 
						|
.IP expr(sp)
 | 
						|
stack pointer relative
 | 
						|
.IP expr(pc)
 | 
						|
program counter relative,
 | 
						|
the expression indicates a location in memory from which the current value
 | 
						|
of '.' is subtracted by the assembler.
 | 
						|
E.g. "movw label(pc),r0; label: .word ..." moves the contents of the word
 | 
						|
at \fIlabel\fP to r0.
 | 
						|
.IP expr(expr(fb))
 | 
						|
.IP expr(expr(sb))
 | 
						|
.IP expr(expr(sp))
 | 
						|
memory relative
 | 
						|
.IP @expr
 | 
						|
absolute
 | 
						|
.IP external(expr)+expr
 | 
						|
The external mode is provided, although this assembler
 | 
						|
does not build a module table.
 | 
						|
.IP tos
 | 
						|
top of stack.
 | 
						|
.PD 0
 | 
						|
.sp 1
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
Usage of the scaled index operands is allowed.
 | 
						|
.br
 | 
						|
The convention used to indicate offset length by appending :B, :W or :D
 | 
						|
to offsets is not implemented.
 | 
						|
The assembler tries to find out the minimal size needed for any constant
 | 
						|
in an operand of the instruction placed in the text segment.
 | 
						|
Offsets in instructions outside \fI.text\fP are always four bytes.
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
All special operands, e.g. register list, configuration list, have
 | 
						|
the same format as in the Programmers Reference Manual.
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
Whenever possible the assembler automatically uses the short(quick) opcodes for
 | 
						|
jsr(jsb), jump(br), add(addq), cmp(cmpq) and mov(movq).
 | 
						|
.SH BUGS
 | 
						|
The data types floating and packed-decimal are not supported.
 | 
						|
.br
 | 
						|
Initialization of floating-point numbers is not possible.
 | 
						|
.br
 | 
						|
The mnemonics of the slave processor instructions are poorly documented,
 | 
						|
the format of the NS-16032S-6 data sheet is used.
 | 
						|
.br
 | 
						|
The documentation gave contradictory information on the format
 | 
						|
of a few instructions.
 | 
						|
.IP -
 | 
						|
Three different schemes are presented for the encoding
 | 
						|
of the last operand of the block instructions.
 | 
						|
.IP -
 | 
						|
Two different values are specified for
 | 
						|
the encoding of the msr register in smr and lmr instructions.
 | 
						|
.IP -
 | 
						|
Two different possibilities are given for the encoding of
 | 
						|
the instructions movsu and movus.
 |
