=== Context === This patch is part of a patch series to add support for ARMv8-R architecture. Its purpose is to keep the distinction between architecture feature bits and extension ones after parsing has occured. === Motivation === This distinction is necessary to allow the Tag_CPU_arch build attribute value to be exactly as per the architecture of the selected CPU. With mixed architecture and extension feature bit, it is impossible to find an architecture with an exact match of feature bit and the build attribute value logic must then select the closest match which might not be the right architecture. The previous patch in the patch series makes the distinction possible when parsing -mcpu and .cpu directives but the distinction gets lost after. Similarly feature bits contributed by extensions in -march or .arch_extensions directive are mixed together with architecture extensions. === Patch description === The patch adds new feature bit pointer for extension feature bits. Information from the parsing regarding extensions can then be kept separate in those. This requires adapting arm_parse_extension to deal with two feature bits, allowing the architecture bits to be marked as const. It also requires extra care when setting cpu_variant and selected_cpu because the extension bits are optional since there might not be any extension in use. Note that contrary to cpu feature bits, the extension feature bits are made read/write and are always dynamically allocated. This allows to unconditionally free them in arm_md_post_relax added for this occasion, thereby fixing a longstanding memory leak when arm_parse_extension was invoked (XNEW of ext_fset without corresponding XDELETE). Introduction of arm_md_post_relax is necessary to only free the extension feature bits after aeabi_set_attribute_string has been called for the last time. 2017-06-21 Thomas Preud'homme <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com> gas/ * config/tc-arm.c (dyn_mcpu_ext_opt): New static variable. (dyn_march_ext_opt): Likewise. (md_begin): Copy extension feature bits alongside architecture ones. Merge extensions feature bits in selected_cpu and cpu_variant if there is some. (arm_parse_extension): Pass architecture and extension feature bits in separate parameters, with architecture bits being read only. Update **opt_p directly rather than *ext_set and initialize it if needed. (arm_parse_cpu): Stop merging architecture and extension feature bits and instead use mcpu_cpu_opt and dyn_mcpu_ext_opt to memorize them respectively. Adapt to change in parameters of arm_parse_extension. (arm_parse_arch): Adapt to change in parameters of arm_parse_extension. (aeabi_set_attribute_string): Make function static. (arm_md_post_relax): New function. (s_arm_cpu): Stop merging architecture and extension feature bits and instead use mcpu_cpu_opt and dyn_mcpu_ext_opt to memorize them respectively. Merge extension feature bits in cpu_variant if there is any. (s_arm_arch): Reset extension feature bit. Set selected_cpu from *mcpu_cpu_opt and cpu_variant from selected_cpu and *mfpu_opt for consistency with s_arm_cpu. (s_arm_arch_extension): Update *dyn_mcpu_ext_opt rather than selected_cpu, allocating it before hand if needed. Set selected_cpu from it and then cpu_variant. (s_arm_fpu): Merge *mcpu_ext_opt feature bits if any in cpu_variant. * config/tc-arm.h (md_post_relax_hook): Set to arm_md_post_relax. (aeabi_set_public_attributes): Delete external declaration. (arm_md_post_relax): Declare externally. |

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
