Hi,
This patch series adds support for all M-profile Vector Extension(MVE)
instructions to GAS and Objdump. Their specifications can be found on
Arm Developer (see https://developer.arm.com/docs/ddi0553/latest).
The patch series is split into three main groups:
- patches 1-36 are GAS patches
- patches 37-56 are OBJDUMP patches
- patch 57 contains all positive testing
The reason to split the testing is because we use assembly macros to
generate extensive testing, which leads to massive 'expected result'
files. Which would require zipping most of the patches to be able to
send them over email. So instead we decided to collate all positive
testing into one patch and only zip that one. The negative tests are
smaller and have been included per relevant patch.
The expected value for positive tests have been compared to a different,
internal implementation.
Cheers,
Andre
