YASM_PARSERS(7) 					      Yasm Supported Parsers						   YASM_PARSERS(7)

NAME

       yasm_parsers - Yasm Supported Parsers (Assembler Syntaxes)

SYNOPSIS

       yasm -p parser [-r preproc] ...

DESCRIPTION

       The standard Yasm distribution includes a number of modules for different parsers (assembler syntaxes).

       The parser is selected on the yasm(1) command line by use of the -p parser command line option.

NASM PARSER

       NASM syntax, selected with -p nasm, is the most full-featured syntax supported by Yasm. 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 yasm_arch(7) for details.
       NASM syntax is the Yasm default.

GAS PARSER

       The 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. There is also no support for the GAS preprocessor. Despite these limitations, 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 -p gas.

NAME

       binfmtasm-interpreter - binfmt_misc Assembly handler

SYNOPSIS

       binfmtasm-interpreter Assembly-source-file-name [command-line opions ...]

DESCRIPTION

       binfmtasm-interpreter compiles an assembly source file specified on the command-line using gas compiler, and executes the resulting file.

       It  is  designed  to be used as a handler for binfmt_misc handler, which is a system used in Linux for handling arbitrary files as executa-
       bles.

       The command-line options are passed on to the compiled binary.

FILE MAGIC

       There is a requirement for C++ source files to have the magic characters /*BINFMTASMCPP: at the beginning of the file.

       That line also is used to specify the additional command-line options for the assmebler.

ENVIRONMENT

       GAS    The compiler used.  The default is to use gcc

       AS     The compiler used, if GAS variable is not set.

	      Will fall back to using GCC and CC

       BINFMTCTMPDIR

	      Temporary directory used for binary and execution.

	      Falls back to $TMPDIR $TEMPDIR or /tmp

       BINFMTC_DEBUG
	      enables debug output if set.

       BINFMTASM_GAS_OPTS
	      Additional G++ options.  Use BINFMTC_DEBUG to verify the options being passed on to g++.

	      The default is  -O2 -Wall
