@node SH-Chars
@subsection Special Characters

@cindex line comment character, SH
@cindex SH line comment character
@samp{!} is the line comment character.

@cindex line separator, SH
@cindex statement separator, SH
@cindex SH line separator
You can use @samp{;} instead of a newline to separate statements.

If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line then the whole
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line could also be
a logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).

@cindex symbol names, @samp{$} in
@cindex @code{$} in symbol names
Since @samp{$} has no special meaning, you may use it in symbol names.

@node SH-Regs
@subsection Register Names

@cindex SH registers
@cindex registers, SH
You can use the predefined symbols @samp{r0}, @samp{r1}, @samp{r2},
@samp{r3}, @samp{r4}, @samp{r5}, @samp{r6}, @samp{r7}, @samp{r8},
@samp{r9}, @samp{r10}, @samp{r11}, @samp{r12}, @samp{r13}, @samp{r14},
and @samp{r15} to refer to the SH registers.

The SH also has these control registers:

@table @code
@item pr
procedure register (holds return address)

@item pc
program counter

@item mach
@itemx macl
high and low multiply accumulator registers

@item sr
status register

@item gbr
global base register

@item vbr
vector base register (for interrupt vectors)
@end table

@node SH-Addressing
@subsection Addressing Modes

@cindex addressing modes, SH
@cindex SH addressing modes
@code{@value{AS}} understands the following addressing modes for the SH.
@code{R@var{n}} in the following refers to any of the numbered
registers, but @emph{not} the control registers.

@table @code
@item R@var{n}
Register direct

@item @@R@var{n}
Register indirect

@item @@-R@var{n}
Register indirect with pre-decrement

@item @@R@var{n}+
Register indirect with post-increment

@item @@(@var{disp}, R@var{n})
Register indirect with displacement

@item @@(R0, R@var{n})
Register indexed

@item @@(@var{disp}, GBR)
@code{GBR} offset

@item @@(R0, GBR)
GBR indexed

@item @var{addr}
@itemx @@(@var{disp}, PC)
PC relative address (for branch or for addressing memory).  The
@code{@value{AS}} implementation allows you to use the simpler form
@var{addr} anywhere a PC relative address is called for; the alternate
form is supported for compatibility with other assemblers.

@item #@var{imm}
Immediate data
@end table

@node SH Floating Point
@section Floating Point

@cindex floating point, SH (@sc{ieee})
@cindex SH floating point (@sc{ieee})
SH2E, SH3E and SH4 groups have on-chip floating-point unit (FPU). Other
SH groups can use @code{.float} directive to generate @sc{ieee}
floating-point numbers.

SH2E and SH3E support single-precision floating point calculations as
well as entirely PCAPI compatible emulation of double-precision
floating point calculations. SH2E and SH3E instructions are a subset of
the floating point calculations conforming to the IEEE754 standard.

In addition to single-precision and double-precision floating-point
operation capability, the on-chip FPU of SH4 has a 128-bit graphic
engine that enables 32-bit floating-point data to be processed 128
bits at a time. It also supports 4 * 4 array operations and inner
product operations. Also, a superscalar architecture is employed that
enables simultaneous execution of two instructions (including FPU
instructions), providing performance of up to twice that of
conventional architectures at the same frequency.

@node SH Directives
@section SH Machine Directives

@cindex SH machine directives
@cindex machine directives, SH
@cindex @code{uaword} directive, SH
@cindex @code{ualong} directive, SH
@cindex @code{uaquad} directive, SH

@table @code
@item uaword
@itemx ualong
@itemx uaquad
@code{@value{AS}} will issue a warning when a misaligned @code{.word},
@code{.long}, or @code{.quad} directive is used.  You may use
@code{.uaword}, @code{.ualong}, or @code{.uaquad} to indicate that the
value is intentionally misaligned.

@node SH Opcodes
@section Opcodes

@cindex SH opcode summary
@cindex opcode summary, SH
@cindex mnemonics, SH
@cindex instruction summary, SH
For detailed information on the SH machine instruction set, see
@cite{SH-Microcomputer User's Manual} (Renesas) or
@cite{SH-4 32-bit CPU Core Architecture} (SuperH) and
@cite{SuperH (SH) 64-Bit RISC Series} (SuperH).

@code{@value{AS}} implements all the standard SH opcodes.  No additional
pseudo-instructions are needed on this family.  Note, however, that
because @code{@value{AS}} supports a simpler form of PC-relative
addressing, you may simply write (for example)

@example
mov.l  bar,r0
@end example

@noindent
where other assemblers might require an explicit displacement to
@code{bar} from the program counter:

@example
mov.l  @@(@var{disp}, PC)
@end example

@ifset SMALL
@c this table, due to the multi-col faking and hardcoded order, looks silly
@c except in smallbook.  See comments below "@set SMALL" near top of this file.

Here is a summary of SH opcodes:
