Description Hans-Peter Nilsson 2018-04-17 00:52:07 UTC 
(Sorry, doesn't seem worthwhile to split into separate binutils and gas reports.)

At master c77852c (HEAD as of this writing), binutils configured with --target=mipsisa32r2el-linux-gnu with no other tools in $PATH (e.g. no target-gcc), gets these errors in the gas and binutils test-suites with "make check", respectively:

gas:
Running /xx/src/gas/testsuite/gas/mips/mips.exp ...
FAIL: MIPS MIPS64 MIPS-3D ASE instructions (-mips3d flag)
FAIL: MIPS MIPS64 MDMX ASE instructions (-mdmx flag)
FAIL: mips module-defer-warn2

binutils:
Running /xx/src/binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/mips/mips.exp ...
FAIL: MIPS XPA and Virtualization ASE instruction disassembly 1
FAIL: MIPS XPA and Virtualization ASE instruction disassembly 2
FAIL: MIPS XPA and Virtualization ASE instruction disassembly 3

There are error messages in gas/testsuite/gas.log apparently due to
the level defaulted by the "mipsisa32r2el" in the configure-tuple.  In
biutils/binutils.log, disassembly is different compared to the
test-suite template.  Maybe best to force a certain architecture in
the assembly options and disassembly options, as applicable.

Not seen if configured with --target=mipsel-linux-gnu.
