hbono@chromium.orgc960eb12012-11-14 05:27:29 +0000[diff] [blame]28The standard Yasm distribution includes a number of modules for different parsers (assembler syntaxes)\&.

Yasm is nearly 100% compatible with NASM for 16\-bit and 32\-bit x86 code\&. Yasm additionally supports 64\-bit AMD64 code with Yasm extensions to the NASM syntax; see

42.PP
hbono@chromium.orgc960eb12012-11-14 05:27:29 +0000[diff] [blame]43The GNU Assembler (GAS) is the de\-facto cross\-platform assembler for modern Unix systems, and is used as the backend for the GCC compiler\&. Yasm\'s support for GAS syntax is moderately good, although immature: not all directives are supported, and only 32\-bit x86 and AMD64 architectures are supported\&. Nearly all of the GAS preprocessor is also supported\&. Yasm\'s GAS syntax support is good enough to handle essentially all x86 and AMD64 GCC compiler output\&. The GAS parser can be selected with
44\fB\-p gas\fR\&.
