Re: need MIPS expert help

I need help in clarification of what an NEC MIPS vr5432 should be defined as. I had thought that it was a MIPS32 compliant part, but binutils/gcc think that it can support a few instructions that it cannot (as MIPS32):

The NEC VR5432 is NOT an MIPS32 compliant part. It was produced before
MIPS came out with the MIPS32 and MIPS64 cores. You should be using
the '-mcpu=r5000' and '-mips2' flags to gcc. Please read the kernel
sources next time. Cheers.
