 /* 
- * LOADADDR( rn, name )
- *   loads the address of 'name' into 'rn'
+ * LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(rn, expr)
+ *   Loads the value of the constant expression 'expr' into register 'rn'
+ *   using immediate instructions only.  Use this when it's important not
+ *   to reference other data (i.e. on ppc64 when the TOC pointer is not
+ *   valid).
  *
- * LOADBASE( rn, name )
- *   loads the address (possibly without the low 16 bits) of 'name' into 'rn'
- *   suitable for base+disp addressing
+ * LOAD_REG_ADDR(rn, name)
+ *   Loads the address of label 'name' into register 'rn'.  Use this when
+ *   you don't particularly need immediate instructions only, but you need
+ *   the whole address in one register (e.g. it's a structure address and
+ *   you want to access various offsets within it).  On ppc32 this is
+ *   identical to LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE.
+ *
+ * LOAD_REG_ADDRBASE(rn, name)
+ * ADDROFF(name)
+ *   LOAD_REG_ADDRBASE loads part of the address of label 'name' into
+ *   register 'rn'.  ADDROFF(name) returns the remainder of the address as
+ *   a constant expression.  ADDROFF(name) is a signed expression < 16 bits
+ *   in size, so is suitable for use directly as an offset in load and store
+ *   instructions.  Use this when loading/storing a single word or less as:
+ *      LOAD_REG_ADDRBASE(rX, name)
+ *      ld      rY,ADDROFF(name)(rX)
