+ * character has special meaning in cpp macros, so we use @function like
+ * other architectures. The assembler seems to accept both.
+ * The assembler also accepts a .proc pseudo-op, which is used by the

+ * value. Since this is difficult to predict and its expected that
+ * assembler code is already optimized, we leave it out.
