jdp 97/03/28 18:16:51 Modified: gnu/usr.bin/as read.c Log: Support the ".p2align" directive, which is standard in newer versions of binutils. For all architectures and object file formats, ".p2align n" aligns to the next multiple of 2**n. Thus for FreeBSD, it does exactly the same thing as the traditional ".align". The old ".align" directive has different meanings in different object formats, and even in different variants of a.out. Sometimes is aligns to a multiple of n, and other times it aligns to a multiple of 2**n. ".p2align" is preferable for use in assembly language sources, since it makes them more portable to object formats other than a.out. Revision Changes Path 1.10 +2 -1 src/gnu/usr.bin/as/read.c
