							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								core instruction set, but including a few additional instructions at
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								each version.  There are exceptions to this however.  For details on what
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								instructions each variant supports, please see the chip's architecture
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								reference manual.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>By default, <code>as</code> assumes the core instruction set (SPARC
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								v6), but “bumps” the architecture level as needed: it switches to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								successively higher architectures as it encounters instructions that
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								only exist in the higher levels.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>If not configured for SPARC v9 (<code>sparc64-*-*</code>) GAS will not bump
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								past sparclite by default, an option must be passed to enable the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								v9 instructions.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>GAS treats sparclite as being compatible with v8, unless an architecture
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								is explicitly requested.  SPARC v9 is always incompatible with sparclite.

						||

								<!-- The order here is the same as the order of enum sparc_opcode_arch_val -->
