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 Intel® Itanium(TM) Architecture Assembly Language Reference Guide.
