Assemblers for the new instructionsets

Hi there, 

Last year I ported the Vector Pascal compiler to the AVX instructionsets, and would like to do a port to the Xeon Phi instructions, but before I do that I need to know what assemblers are available for the new instructions. I know that NASM is not yet available for it, but is there a Gnu Assembler for it, or any other open source assembler?

gnu binutils for linux evidently has supported AVX for quite some time, including the versions supplied with current linux distros.

The forum specific to Intel(c) Xeon Phi(tm) is the place to ask about that. Cross-binutils components for that architecture are available in an optional download associated with the Intel64 linux compilers, as well as from gnu binutils sites.
