Commit Message

Bill Schmidt May 22, 2019, 5:51 p.m. UTC 
Hi,

This patch introduces the infrastructure to support -mcpu=future, used for features
in a future architecture, as yet unnamed.

Bootstrapped and tested on powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu with no regressions.  Is
this okay for trunk?

Thanks,
Bill


Add infrastructure to support -mcpu=future to represent a future
architecture level, as yet unnamed.

Let's not use that?  I removed HAVE_AS_* (for ISA version support) in
r264675:

"""
rs6000: Delete many HAVE_AS_* (PR87149)

This deletes most HAVE_AS_* that determine if the assembler supports
some ISA level (and also HAVE_AS_MFPGPR and HAVE_AS_DFP).

These are not useful: we will only generate an instruction that requires
some newer ISA if the user specifically asked for it (with -mcpu=, say).
If the assembler cannot handle that, it is fine if it gives an error.

They also hurt: it increases the number of possible situations that all
need handling and all need testing.  We do not handle all cases, and
obviously do not test all either.
"""

So, just generate FUTURE insns when the user asked for that, don't worry
about checking if the assembler can handle that -- the user will find out
soon enough if not, and on any normal install everything will work fine.

This list is alphabetic.  Well, was alphabetic :-)

Please don't reformat mixed with other (non-random) changes.

Maybe *not* documenting this would be less confusing?

Drop this last line, use -mdejagnu-cpu=future instead?

Yep, agreed.  This was refactored from old patches prior to that.

Well, this was refactored from your patch. ;-)

I disagree, simply because at some point this will be renamed, and
having the place-holder will ensure we don't forget to add the new
name.  So I'd like to keep this.

rs6000_register_move_cost needs similar tweaks.

Does it?  I don't believe the slow LR/CTR move applies.  However, the cost
for direct moves probably should be treated the same as POWER9, I think...
I will plan to make that change.

Thanks!
