6.3.1 General Format

The format of the main listing is in the form shown in the figure below.

The line numbers purely relate to the assembly list file and are not associated with the lines numbers in the C or assembly source files. Any assembly that begins with a semicolon indicates it is a comment added by the code generator. Such comments contain either the original source code, which corresponds to the generated assembly, or is a comment inserted by the code generator to explain some action taken.

Before the output for each function, there is detailed information regarding that function summarized by the code generator. This information relates to register usage, local variable information, functions called, and the calling function.
