Hello,
This patchset contains i18n enablement.
When extensions are missing for an instruction, it will print an error
message like this:
Error: unrecognized opcode `fence.i', extension `zifencei' required
This is formatted in gas/config/tc-riscv.c:
as_bad ("%s `%s', extension `%s' required", error.msg,
error.statement, error.missing_ext);
error.missing_ext is a return value from the function
`riscv_multi_subset_supports_ext' in bfd/elfxx-riscv.c.
If required "extension" IS simple, that's fine. All we have to do
with i18n is to translate "%s `%s', extension `%s' required".
But if requirementS get complex, that's not that simple. There are
13 complex strings representing required extensions:
return "f' and `c";
return "d' and `c";
return "f' or `zfinx";
return "d' or `zdinx";
return "q' or `zqinx";
return "zbb' or `zbkb";
return "zbc' or `zbkc";
return "zknd' or `zkne";
return "v' or `zve64x' or `zve32x";
return "v' or `zve64d' or `zve64f' or `zve32f";
return "zfh' or 'zhinx";
return "('d' and 'zfh') or 'zhinx";
return "('q' and 'zfh') or 'zhinx";
For i18n, we have to translate words like "and" and "or". In Japanese,
we should translate:
"f' and `c"
to:
"f' および `c"
This is simple (I replaced "and" with equivalent Japanese word "および").
But more complex requirements (e.g. involving V or Zfh) will need
natural sentense (that would depend on each language).
This patch wraps such 13 strings with _() for i18n enablement.
It will be a prerequisite to my future submission of quick Zhinx fixes
and larger Z{h,f,d,q}inx fixes.
Thanks,
Tsukasa
