在 GNU Assembler - AS - 列表中显示宏扩展。 仅预处理？

Question

I can't seem to find any command switch to show me the expansions of my macro definitions.

Is there a way to do this with the GNU Assembler?

For example, if I have a macro like this:

.macro MACROA a
    mov \a,%rax
.endm

MACROA $10

I'd like to see the expansions of this like so:

; MACROA $10
mov $10, %rax

I vaguely remember seeing this but don't know where anymore.

I tried the -a switch but it doesn't generate expansions, only opcodes are printed next to the macro

   5                .macro MACROA a
   6                    mov \a, %rax
   7                .endm
   8                
   9                _start:

as -a -am enables listings with macro expansion.

...
   5                    MACROA 10
   5 0000 488B0425      >  mov 10,%rax
   5      0A000000 
       # load from absolute address 10, not mov $10, %rax.
       # That's why as -Os doesn't optimize it to a 5-byte mov to eax
...

The man page implies that -am alone would turn on listings, as well as set the listing style to include macro expansion. But in current versions of GAS (eg Binutils 2.36.1 on my system), that is not the case. A separate listing option like bare -a is necessary to actually turn on listings.

This is a bug in GAS's option parsing; feel free to report it. I think they use https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/
