Aliasing

IAS supports aliasing of symbol names and section names. Aliasing is implemented as follows:

symbol names

Aliased by an .alias directive. The alias name appears in the symbol table of the output file.

section names

Aliased by a .secalias directive. The alias name appears in the symbol table of the output file. See the .secalias Directive section for more information.

  Aliasing is fully defined in the IntelŪ ItaniumŪ Architecture Assembly Language Reference Guide.
