<code>as</code> now supports assembly using Intel assembler syntax.
<code>.intel_syntax</code> selects Intel mode, and <code>.att_syntax</code> switches
back to the usual AT&amp;T mode for compatibility with the output of
<code>gcc</code>. Either of these directives may have an optional
argument, <code>prefix</code>, or <code>noprefix</code> specifying whether registers
require a <span class="samp">%</span> prefix. AT&amp;T System V/386 assembler syntax is quite
different from Intel syntax. We mention these differences because
almost all 80386 documents use Intel syntax. Notable differences
between the two syntaxes are:

<ul>
<li>AT&amp;T immediate operands are preceded by <span class="samp">$</span>; Intel immediate
operands are undelimited (Intel <span class="samp">push 4</span> is AT&amp;T <span class="samp">pushl $4</span>).
AT&amp;T register operands are preceded by <span class="samp">%</span>; Intel register operands
are undelimited. AT&amp;T absolute (as opposed to PC relative) jump/call
operands are prefixed by <span class="samp">*</span>; they are undelimited in Intel syntax.
<p><a name="index-i386-source_002c-destination-operands-869"></a><a name="index-source_002c-destination-operands_003b-i386-870"></a><a name="index-x86_002d64-source_002c-destination-operands-871"></a><a name="index-source_002c-destination-operands_003b-x86_002d64-872"></a><li>AT&amp;T and Intel syntax use the opposite order for source and destination
operands. Intel <span class="samp">add eax, 4</span> is <span class="samp">addl $4, %eax</span>. The
<span class="samp">source, dest</span> convention is maintained for compatibility with
previous Unix assemblers. Note that <span class="samp">bound</span>, <span class="samp">invlpga</span>, and
instructions with 2 immediate operands, such as the <span class="samp">enter</span>
instruction, do <em>not</em> have reversed order. <a href="i386_002dBugs.html#i386_002dBugs">i386-Bugs</a>.

character of the instruction mnemonic. Mnemonic suffixes of <span class="samp">b</span>,
<span class="samp">w</span>, <span class="samp">l</span> and <span class="samp">q</span> specify byte (8-bit), word (16-bit), long
(32-bit) and quadruple word (64-bit) memory references. Intel syntax accomplishes
this by prefixing memory operands (<em>not</em> the instruction mnemonics) with
<span class="samp">byte ptr</span>, <span class="samp">word ptr</span>, <span class="samp">dword ptr</span> and <span class="samp">qword ptr</span>. Thus,
Intel <span class="samp">mov al, byte ptr </span><var>foo</var> is <span class="samp">movb </span><var>foo</var><span class="samp">, %al</span> in AT&amp;T
syntax.

<span class="samp">lcall/ljmp $</span><var>section</var><span class="samp">, $</span><var>offset</var> in AT&amp;T syntax; the
Intel syntax is
<span class="samp">call/jmp far </span><var>section</var><span class="samp">:</span><var>offset</var>. Also, the far return
instruction
is <span class="samp">lret $</span><var>stack-adjust</var> in AT&amp;T syntax; Intel syntax is
<span class="samp">ret far </span><var>stack-adjust</var>.

programs. Unix style systems expect all programs to be single sections.
