This option specifies the target processor. The assembler will issue
an error message if an attempt is made to assemble an instruction which
In addition to the basic instruction set, the assembler can be told to
accept some extention mnemonics. For example,
@code{-march=z180+sli+infc} extends @var{z180} with @var{SLI} instructions and
-@var{IN F,(C)}. The following instructions are currently supported:
+@var{IN F,(C)}. The following extentions are currently supported:
@code{full} (all known instructions),
-@code{adl} (ADL CPU mode by default),
+@code{adl} (ADL CPU mode by default, eZ80 only),
@code{sli} (instruction known as @var{SLI}, @var{SLL} or @var{SL1}),
@code{xyhl} (instructions with halves of index registers: @var{IXL}, @var{IXH},
@var{IYL}, @var{IYH}),
@code{-march=z80-full+xyhl} first removes all default extentions and adds
support for index registers halves only.
+If this option is not specified then @code{-march=z80+xyhl+infc} is assumed.

@node Z80 Directives
@section Z80 Assembler Directives
+@cindex Z80-only directives
@command{@value{AS}} for the Z80 supports some additional directives for
compatibility with other assemblers.
-@cindex Z80-only directives
These are the additional directives in @code{@value{AS}} for the Z80:
@table @code
-@item assume @var{ADL}@samp{=}@var{expression}
+@item @code{.assume ADL = @var{expression}}
+@cindex @code{.assume} directive, Z80
Set ADL status for eZ80. Non-zero value enable compilation in ADL mode else
used Z80 mode. ADL and Z80 mode produces incompatible object code. Mixing
both of them within one binary may lead problems with disassembler.
-@item db @var{expression}|@var{string}[,@var{expression}|@var{string}...]
-@itemx defb @var{expression}|@var{string}[,@var{expression}|@var{string}...]
-@itemx defm @var{string}...]
+@item @code{db @var{expression}|@var{string}[,@var{expression}|@var{string}...]}
+@cindex @code{db} directive, Z80
+@itemx @code{defb @var{expression}|@var{string}[,@var{expression}|@var{string}...]}
+@cindex @code{defb} directive, Z80
+@itemx @code{defm @var{string}[,@var{string}...]}
+@cindex @code{defm} directive, Z80
For each @var{string} the characters are copied to the object file, for
each other @var{expression} the value is stored in one byte.
A warning is issued in case of an overflow.
Backslash symbol in the strings is generic symbol, it cannot be used as
-escape character (for this purpose use @code{.ascii} or @code{.asciiz}
-directives).

-@item dw @var{expression}[,@var{expression}...]
-@itemx defw @var{expression}[,@var{expression}...]
+@item @code{dw @var{expression}[,@var{expression}...]}
+@cindex @code{dw} directive, Z80
+@itemx @code{defw @var{expression}[,@var{expression}...]}
+@cindex @code{defw} directive, Z80
For each @var{expression} the value is stored in two bytes, ignoring
overflow.

+@item @code{d24 @var{expression}[,@var{expression}...]}

+@itemx @code{def24 @var{expression}[,@var{expression}...]}

For each @var{expression} the value is stored in three bytes, ignoring
overflow.

For each @var{expression} the value is stored in four bytes, ignoring
overflow.

+@cindex @code{defs} directive, Z80
@c Synonyms for @code{ds.b},
@c which should have been described elsewhere
Fill @var{count} bytes in the object file with @var{value}, if
@var{value} is omitted it defaults to zero.
-@item @var{symbol} equ @var{expression}
-@itemx @var{symbol} defl @var{expression}
-These directives set the value of @var{symbol} to @var{expression}. If
-@code{equ} is used, it is an error if @var{symbol} is already defined.
-Symbols defined with @code{equ} are not protected from redefinition.

+
+@item @code{@var{symbol} equ @var{expression}}
+@cindex @code{equ} directive, Z80
+The @code{equ} directive is like @code{.equiv} but with different syntax (@xref{Equiv,,@code{.equiv}}).
