@cindex PowerPC architectures
The PowerPC chip family includes several successive levels, using the same
core instruction set, but including a few additional instructions at
each level. There are exceptions to this however. For details on what
instructions each variant supports, please see the chip's architecture
reference manual.
The following table lists all available PowerPC options.
@table @code

@section PowerPC Assembler Directives
@cindex directives for PowerPC
@cindex PowerPC directives
A number of assembler directives are available for PowerPC. The
following table is far from complete.
@table @code
@item .machine "string"
This directive allows you to change the machine for which code is
generated. @code{"string"} may be any of the -m cpu selection options
(without the -m) enclosed in double quotes, @code{"push"}, or
@code{"pop"}. @code{.machine "push"} saves the currently selected
cpu, which may be restored with @code{.machine "pop"}.
@end table

* PowerPC-Chars:: Special Characters
@end menu
@node PowerPC-Chars
@subsection Special Characters
@cindex line comment character, PowerPC
@cindex PowerPC line comment character
The presence of a @samp{#} on a line indicates the start of a comment
that extends to the end of the current line.
If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line then the whole
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line could also be
a logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).
If the assembler has been configured for the ppc-*-solaris* target
then the @samp{!} character also acts as a line comment character.
This can be disabled via the @option{-mno-solaris} command line
option.
@cindex line separator, PowerPC
@cindex statement separator, PowerPC
@cindex PowerPC line separator
The @samp{;} character can be used to separate statements on the same
line.
