Does linux "as" assembler support intel format assembly language?

Question

The default assembler under linux is "as". I know gdb supports disassembly using both AT&T and Intel syntax.

My question is, I know "as" supports AT&T format, does it support Intel format? E.g. I've "b.s" file

.global _start
_start:
mov ax,0

Then

as b.s
b.s: Assembler messages:
b.s:3: Error： too many memory references for `mov'

How to make "as" compile this .s file? Thanks.

Add `.intel_syntax noprefix` to the top of the assembly file. — Michael Petch, Sep 18 '16 at 05:02

See this answer for some pointers of gcc/gas with Intel syntax.

I personally have used NASM for the occasional pure assembly projects (which is Intel syntax native) or Intel's icc for C programs with inlines.

Thanks, I've added ".intel_syntax noprefix" in my .s file to solve this problem. – Hind Forsum Sep 18 '16 at 07:14
