Chapter 3 Introduction to Operation

Basic Operation of Assembler and Linker 29

The contents of the final list file program2.lst are as follows.

Here is a simple explanation of how to read the list files. A list file shows four items of information.

Source statements and machine language code

• Source statements and machine language code

• Symbol table

Source statements and their corresponding machine language code are further divided into Loc, Object,

Line, and Source headings.

The Loc heading gives location counter values, which show execution addresses in the final list files.

program1.lst starts from location 40000000 (hex.), and program2.lst starts from location 40000016

(hex.).

The Object heading shows the codes of instructions converted to machine language by the assembler.

Instructions consist of one to four bytes (1 byte=8 bits), shown as two to eight hex digits. After some

machine language code, the symbol 'M' will be added. The 'M' indicates an instruction that was

expanded from a macro instruction.

The Line heading shows line numbers added by the assembler. The Source heading shows the source

statements as coded.
