Specify Blocking for a Section
.sblock["]section name["][,["]section name["],...
The .sblock directive designates sections for blocking. Blocking is an address alignment mechanism similar to page alignment, but weaker. A blocked section does not cross a page boundary (64 words) if it is smaller than a page, and it starts on a page boundary if it is larger than a page. The section names may optionally be enclosed in quotation marks.
This example designates the .text and .data sections for blocking.
