SPARC Assembly

This page is going to discuss SPARC Pseudo-Ops.

Pseudo-Ops

In addition to the SPARC instructions and synthetic instructions, there are a number of assembler-provided "Pseudo-Ops" that create convenience for the programmer.

.ascii
.asciz
.text
.data
.bss
.skip
.align
.byte
.half
.word
.single
.double
.quad
.global
.common
.empty

This chapter will (hopefully) discuss each of these.
