- <a name="index-floating-point_002c-x86_002d64"></a>
- <p>All 80387 floating point types except packed BCD are supported.
- (BCD support may be added without much difficulty). These data
- types are 16-, 32-, and 64- bit integers, and single (32-bit),
- double (64-bit), and extended (80-bit) precision floating point.
- Each supported type has an instruction mnemonic suffix and a constructor
- associated with it. Instruction mnemonic suffixes specify the operand’s
- data type. Constructors build these data types into memory.

- <a name="index-tfloat-directive_002c-x86_002d64"></a>
- <ul>
- <li> Floating point constructors are ‘<samp>.float</samp>’ or ‘<samp>.single</samp>’,
- ‘<samp>.double</samp>’, and ‘<samp>.tfloat</samp>’ for 32-, 64-, and 80-bit formats.
- These correspond to instruction mnemonic suffixes ‘<samp>s</samp>’, ‘<samp>l</samp>’,
- and ‘<samp>t</samp>’. ‘<samp>t</samp>’ stands for 80-bit (ten byte) real. The 80387
- only supports this format via the ‘<samp>fldt</samp>’ (load 80-bit real to stack
- top) and ‘<samp>fstpt</samp>’ (store 80-bit real and pop stack) instructions.

- <a name="index-long-directive_002c-x86_002d64"></a>
- <a name="index-int-directive_002c-x86_002d64"></a>
- <a name="index-quad-directive_002c-x86_002d64"></a>
- Integer constructors are ‘<samp>.word</samp>’, ‘<samp>.long</samp>’ or ‘<samp>.int</samp>’, and
- ‘<samp>.quad</samp>’ for the 16-, 32-, and 64-bit integer formats. The
- corresponding instruction mnemonic suffixes are ‘<samp>s</samp>’ (single),
- ‘<samp>l</samp>’ (long), and ‘<samp>q</samp>’ (quad). As with the 80-bit real format,
- the 64-bit ‘<samp>q</samp>’ format is only present in the ‘<samp>fildq</samp>’ (load
- quad integer to stack top) and ‘<samp>fistpq</samp>’ (store quad integer and pop
- stack) instructions.
- </li></ul>
-
- <p>Register to register operations should not use instruction mnemonic suffixes.
- ‘<samp>fstl %st, %st(1)</samp>’ will give a warning, and be assembled as if you
- wrote ‘<samp>fst %st, %st(1)</samp>’, since all register to register operations
- use 80-bit floating point operands. (Contrast this with ‘<samp>fstl %st, mem</samp>’,
- which converts ‘<samp>%st</samp>’ from 80-bit to 64-bit floating point format,
- then stores the result in the 4 byte location ‘<samp>mem</samp>’)
