Question

The gcc -S option will generate assembly code in AT&T syntax, is there a way to generate files in Intel syntax? Or is there a way to convert between the two?

Answer 1

Use -masm=intel

gcc -S -masm=intel -Og -fverbose-asm test.c 

That works with GCC, and Clang 3.5 and later. GCC manual:

• -masm=dialect
  Output asm instructions using selected dialect. Supported choices are intel or att (the default one). Darwin does not support intel.

For macOS, note that by default, the gcc command actually runs Clang unless you’ve installed actual GCC (e.g. from Brew). Modern clang supports -masm=intel as a synonym for this, but this always works with clang:

clang++ -S -mllvm --x86-asm-syntax=intel test.cpp 

Note that until clang 14, this does not change how clang processes inline asm() statements, unlike for GCC.

These are the options used by Matt Godbolt’s Compiler Explorer site by default: https://godbolt.org/
