1 9.29.4 MSP 430 Machine Directives
1 ---------------------------------
1 
1 '.file'
1      This directive is ignored; it is accepted for compatibility with
1      other MSP 430 assemblers.
1 
1           _Warning:_ in other versions of the GNU assembler, '.file' is
1           used for the directive called '.app-file' in the MSP 430
1           support.
1 
1 '.line'
1      This directive is ignored; it is accepted for compatibility with
1      other MSP 430 assemblers.
1 
1 '.arch'
1      Sets the target microcontroller in the same way as the '-mmcu'
1      command line option.
1 
1 '.cpu'
1      Sets the target architecture in the same way as the '-mcpu' command
1      line option.
1 
1 '.profiler'
1      This directive instructs assembler to add new profile entry to the
1      object file.
1 
1 '.refsym'
1      This directive instructs assembler to add an undefined reference to
1      the symbol following the directive.  The maximum symbol name length
1      is 1023 characters.  No relocation is created for this symbol; it
1      will exist purely for pulling in object files from archives.  Note
1      that this reloc is not sufficient to prevent garbage collection;
1      use a KEEP() directive in the linker file to preserve such objects.
