There's still a lot of irrelevant\ngarbage lying around that will be cleaned up in time.  Documentation\nis scarce, as are logs of the changes made since the last gas release.\nMy apologies, and I'll try to get something useful.\n\nUnpacking and Installation - Summary\n====================================\n\nSee ../binutils/README.\n\nTo build just the assembler, make the target all-gas.\n\nDocumentation\n=============\n\nThe GAS release includes texinfo source for its manual, which can be processed\ninto `info' or `dvi' forms.\n\nThe DVI form is suitable for printing or displaying; the commands for doing\nthis vary from system to system.  On many systems, `lpr -d' will print a DVI\nfile.  On others, you may need to run a program such as `dvips' to convert the\nDVI file into a form your system can print.\n\nIf you wish to build the DVI file, you will need to have TeX installed on your\nsystem.  You can rebuild it by typing:\n\n\tcd gas/doc\n\tmake as.dvi\n\nThe Info form is viewable with the GNU Emacs `info' subsystem, or the\nstand-alone `info' program, available as part of the GNU Texinfo distribution.\nTo build the info files, you will need the `makeinfo' program.  Type:\n\n\tcd gas/doc\n\tmake info\n\nSpecifying names for hosts and targets\n======================================\n\n   The specifications used for hosts and targets in the `configure'\nscript are based on a three-part naming scheme, but some short\npredefined aliases are also supported.  The full naming scheme encodes\nthree pieces of information in the following pattern:\n\n     ARCHITECTURE-VENDOR-OS\n\n   For example, you can use the alias `sun4' as a HOST argument or in a\n`--target=TARGET' option.  The equivalent full name is\n`sparc-sun-sunos4'.\n\n   The `configure' script accompanying GAS does not provide any query\nfacility to list all supported host and target names or aliases.\n`configure' calls the Bourne shell script `config.sub' to map\nabbreviations to full names; you can read the script, if you wish, or\nyou can use it to test your guesses on abbreviations--for example:\n\n     % sh config.sub i386v\n     i386-unknown-sysv\n     % sh config.sub i786v\n     Invalid configuration `i786v': machine `i786v' not recognized\n\n\n`configure' options\n===================\n\n   Here is a summary of the `configure' options and arguments that are\nmost often useful for building GAS.  `configure' also has several other\noptions not listed here.\n\n     configure [--help]\n               [--prefix=DIR]\n               [--srcdir=PATH]\n               [--host=HOST]\n               [--target=TARGET]\n               [--with-OPTION]\n               [--enable-OPTION]\n\nYou may introduce options with a single `-' rather than `--' if you\nprefer; but you may abbreviate option names if you use `--'.\n\n`--help'\n     Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.\n\n`-prefix=DIR'\n     Configure the source to install programs and files under directory\n     `DIR'.\n\n`--srcdir=PATH'\n     Look for the package's source code in directory DIR.  Usually\n     `configure' can determine that directory automatically.\n\n`--host=HOST'\n     Configure GAS to run on the specified HOST.  Normally the\n     configure script can figure this out automatically.\n\n     There is no convenient way to generate a list of all available\n     hosts.\n\n`--target=TARGET'\n     Configure GAS for cross-assembling programs for the specified\n     TARGET.  Without this option, GAS is configured to assemble .o files\n     that run on the same machine (HOST) as GAS itself.\n\n     There is no convenient way to generate a list of all available\n     targets.\n\n`--enable-OPTION'\n     These flags tell the program or library being configured to\n     configure itself differently from the default for the specified\n     host/target combination.  See below for a list of `--enable'\n     options recognized in the gas distribution.\n\n`configure' accepts other options, for compatibility with configuring\nother GNU tools recursively; but these are the only options that affect\nGAS or its supporting libraries.\n\nThe `--enable' options recognized by software in the gas distribution are:\n\n`--enable-targets=...'\n     This causes one or more specified configurations to be added to those for\n     which BFD support is compiled.  Currently gas cannot use any format other\n     than its compiled-in default, so this option is not very useful.\n\n`--enable-bfd-assembler'\n     This causes the assembler to use the new code being merged into it to use\n     BFD data structures internally, and use BFD for writing object files.\n     For most targets, this isn't supported yet.  For most targets where it has\n     been done, it's already the default.  So generally you won't need to use\n     this option.\n\nCompiler Support Hacks\n======================\n\nOn a few targets, the assembler has been modified to support a feature\nthat is potentially useful when assembling compiler output, but which\nmay confuse assembly language programmers.  If assembler encounters a\n.word pseudo-op of the form symbol1-symbol2 (the difference of two\nsymbols), and the difference of those two symbols will not fit in 16\nbits, the assembler will create a branch around a long jump to\nsymbol1, and insert this into the output directly before the next\nlabel: The .word will (instead of containing garbage, or giving an\nerror message) contain (the address of the long jump)-symbol2.  This\nallows the assembler to assemble jump tables that jump to locations\nvery far away into code that works properly.  If the next label is\nmore than 32K away from the .word, you lose (silently); RMS claims\nthis will never happen.  If the -K option is given, you will get a\nwarning message when this happens.\n\n\nREPORTING BUGS IN GAS\n=====================\n\nBugs in gas should be reported to:\n\n   bug-binutils@gnu.org.\n\nThey may be cross-posted to gcc-bugs@gnu.org if they affect the use of\ngas with gcc.  They should not be reported just to gcc-bugs, since not\nall of the maintainers read that list.\n\nSee ../binutils/README for what we need in a bug report.\n\f\nCopyright (C) 2012-2017 Free Software Foundation, Inc.\n\nCopying and distribution of this file, with or without modification,\nare permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright\nnotice and this notice are preserved.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgitgnu%2Fgnu_as","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fgitgnu%2Fgnu_as","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgitgnu%2Fgnu_as/lists"}
