<h5 class="subsubsection">9.3.2.4 NEON Alignment Specifiers</h5>
<p><a name="index-alignment-for-NEON-instructions-601"></a>Some NEON load/store instructions allow an optional address
alignment qualifier.
The ARM documentation specifies that this is indicated by
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">@ </span><var>align</var></samp>&rsquo;. However GAS already interprets
the &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">@</span></samp>&rsquo; character as a "line comment" start,
so &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">: </span><var>align</var></samp>&rsquo; is used instead. For example:
<pre class="smallexample"> vld1.8 {q0}, [r0, :128]
</pre>
