Recommended Simplified Mnemonics - IBM PowerPC 604 User Manual

Because the presence and exact semantics of the TLB management instructions is
implementation-dependent, system software should incorporate uses of these instructions
into subroutines to minimize compatibility problems.
2.3. 7 Recommended Simplified Mnemonics
To simplify assembly language coding, a set of alternative mnemonics is provided for some -
frequently used operations (such as no-op, load immediate, load address, move register, and
complement register). Programs written to be portable across the various assemblers for the
PowerPC architecture should not assume the existence of mnemonics not
described
in this
document.
For a complete list of simplified mnemonics, see Appendix F, "Simplified Mnemonics,'' in
The Programming Environments Manual .
