 - <a name="index-register-names_002c-IA_002d64"></a>
 - 
 - <p>The 128 integer registers are referred to as ‘<samp>r<var>n</var></samp>’.
 - The 128 floating-point registers are referred to as ‘<samp>f<var>n</var></samp>’.
 - The 128 application registers are referred to as ‘<samp>ar<var>n</var></samp>’.
 - The 128 control registers are referred to as ‘<samp>cr<var>n</var></samp>’.
 - The 64 one-bit predicate registers are referred to as ‘<samp>p<var>n</var></samp>’.
 - The 8 branch registers are referred to as ‘<samp>b<var>n</var></samp>’.
 - In addition, the assembler defines a number of aliases:
 - ‘<samp>gp</samp>’ (‘<samp>r1</samp>’), ‘<samp>sp</samp>’ (‘<samp>r12</samp>’), ‘<samp>rp</samp>’ (‘<samp>b0</samp>’),
 - ‘<samp>ret0</samp>’ (‘<samp>r8</samp>’), ‘<samp>ret1</samp>’ (‘<samp>r9</samp>’), ‘<samp>ret2</samp>’ (‘<samp>r10</samp>’),
 - ‘<samp>ret3</samp>’ (‘<samp>r9</samp>’), ‘<samp>farg<var>n</var></samp>’ (‘<samp>f8+<var>n</var></samp>’), and
 - ‘<samp>fret<var>n</var></samp>’ (‘<samp>f8+<var>n</var></samp>’).
 - </p>
 - <p>For convenience, the assembler also defines aliases for all named application
 - and control registers.  For example, ‘<samp>ar.bsp</samp>’ refers to the register
 - backing store pointer (‘<samp>ar17</samp>’).  Similarly, ‘<samp>cr.eoi</samp>’ refers to
 - the end-of-interrupt register (‘<samp>cr67</samp>’).
