 - <a name="index-D30V-line-comment-character"></a>
 - <p>A semicolon (‘<samp>;</samp>’) can be used anywhere on a line to start a
 - comment that extends to the end of the line.
 - </p>
 - <p>If a ‘<samp>#</samp>’ appears as the first character of a line, the whole line
 - is treated as a comment, but in this case the line could also be a
 - logical line number directive (see <a href="Comments.html#Comments">Comments</a>) or a preprocessor
 - control command (see <a href="Preprocessing.html#Preprocessing">Preprocessing</a>).
 - </p>
 - <a name="index-sub_002dinstruction-ordering_002c-D30V"></a>
 - <a name="index-D30V-sub_002dinstruction-ordering"></a>
 - <p>Sub-instructions may be executed in order, in reverse-order, or in parallel.
 - Instructions listed in the standard one-per-line format will be executed
 - sequentially unless you use the ‘<samp>-O</samp>’ option.
 - </p>
 - <p>To specify the executing order, use the following symbols:
 - </p><dl compact="compact">
 - <dt>‘<samp>-></samp>’</dt>
 - <dd><p>Sequential with instruction on the left first.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt>‘<samp><-</samp>’</dt>
 - <dd><p>Sequential with instruction on the right first.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt>‘<samp>||</samp>’</dt>
 - <dd><p>Parallel
 - </p></dd>
 - </dl>
 - 
 - <p>The D30V syntax allows either one instruction per line, one instruction per line with
 - the execution symbol, or two instructions per line.  For example
 - </p><dl compact="compact">
 - <dt><code>abs r2,r3 -> abs r4,r5</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Execute these sequentially.  The instruction on the right is in the right
 - container and is executed second.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt><code>abs r2,r3 <- abs r4,r5</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Execute these reverse-sequentially.  The instruction on the right is in the right
 - container, and is executed first.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt><code>abs r2,r3 || abs r4,r5</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Execute these in parallel.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt><code>ldw r2,@(r3,r4) ||</code></dt>
 - <dt><code>mulx r6,r8,r9</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Two-line format. Execute these in parallel.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt><code>mulx a0,r8,r9</code></dt>
 - <dt><code>stw r2,@(r3,r4)</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Two-line format. Execute these sequentially unless ‘<samp>-O</samp>’ option is
 - used.  If the ‘<samp>-O</samp>’ option is used, the assembler will determine if
 - the instructions could be done in parallel (the above two instructions
 - can be done in parallel), and if so, emit them as parallel instructions.
 - The assembler will put them in the proper containers.  In the above
 - example, the assembler will put the ‘<samp>stw</samp>’ instruction in left
 - container and the ‘<samp>mulx</samp>’ instruction in the right container.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt><code>stw r2,@(r3,r4) -></code></dt>
 - <dt><code>mulx a0,r8,r9</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Two-line format.  Execute the ‘<samp>stw</samp>’ instruction followed by the
 - ‘<samp>mulx</samp>’ instruction sequentially.  The first instruction goes in the
 - left container and the second instruction goes into right container.
 - The assembler will give an error if the machine ordering constraints are
 - violated.
 - </p>
 - </dd>
 - <dt><code>stw r2,@(r3,r4) <-</code></dt>
 - <dt><code>mulx a0,r8,r9</code></dt>
 - <dd><p>Same as previous example, except that the ‘<samp>mulx</samp>’ instruction is
 - executed before the ‘<samp>stw</samp>’ instruction.
 - </p></dd>

 - <p>Since ‘<samp>$</samp>’ has no special meaning, you may use it in symbol names.
