This patch adds AArch32 support for -march=armv8.9-a and
-march=armv9.4-a. The behaviour of the new options can be
expressed using a combination of existing feature flags
and tables.
The cpu_arch_ver entries for ARM_ARCH_V9_4A and ARM_ARCH_V8_9A
are technically redundant but it including them for macro code
consistency across architectures.
Adds two new external authors to etc/update-copyright.py to cover
bfd/ax_tls.m4, and adds gprofng to dirs handled automatically, then
updates copyright messages as follows:
1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights.
2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external
author I haven't committed, 'Kalray SA.', to cover gas testsuite
files (which should have their copyright message removed).
3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes.
4) Check out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
Hi,
This patch adds support for the Cortex-X3 CPU to binutils.
Gas regression testing for aarch64-none-linux-gnu target and found no regressions.
Ok for binutils-master? I don't have commit access so I need someone to commit on my behalf.
Regards,
Matthieu.

This patch makes the BPF assembler to support double-slash line
comments, like the llvm BPF assembler does. At this point both
assemblers support the same commenting styles:
- Line comments preceded by # or //.
- Non-nestable block comments delimited by /* and */.
This patch also adds a couple of tests to make sure all the comment
styles work in both normal and pseudoc syntax. The manual is also
updated to mention double-slash line comments.
While for some of the macro insns using x0 is kind of okay, as they
would merely resolve to a sequence of hint insns (and hence not cause
misbehavior at runtime), several of them have the degenerate AUIPC
followed by a load, store, or branch using other than the designated
symbol as address and hence causing runtime issues. Refuse to assemble
those, leveraging that the matching function so far wasn't really used
for macro insns: NULL is now allowed, indicating a match (which imo is
preferable over converting match_never() to match_always()), while
other matching functions now (also) used for macro insns need to avoid
calling match_opcode().
Note that for LA the restriction is slightly too strict: In non-PIC mode
using x0 would be okay-ish as per above (as it's just LLA there). Yet
libopcodes doesn't know what mode gas is presently assembling for, so we
want to err on the safe side.

T-Head has a range of vendor-specific instructions ([2]).
Therefore it makes sense to group them into smaller chunks
in form of vendor extensions.
This patch adds the "XTheadVector" extension, a collection of
T-Head-specific vector instructions. The 'th' prefix and the
"XTheadVector" extension are documented in a PR for the RISC-V
toolchain conventions ([1]).
Here are some things that need to be explained:
The "XTheadVector" extension is not a custom-extension, but
a non-standard non-conforming extension. The encoding space
of the "TheadVector" instructions overlaps with those of
the 'V' extension. This encoding space conflict is not on
purpose, but the result of issues in the past that have
been resolved since. Therefore, the "XTheadVector" extension
and the 'V' extension are in conflict.

This patch also adds support for:
1. FEAT_RASv2 feature and "ERXGSR_EL1" system register.
RASv2 feature is enabled by passing +rasv2 to -march
(eg: -march=armv8-a+rasv2).
2. FEAT_SCTLR2 and following system registers.
SCTLR2_EL1, SCTLR2_EL12, SCTLR2_EL2 and SCTLR2_EL3.
3. FEAT_FGT2 and following system registers.
HDFGRTR2_EL2, HDFGWTR2_EL2, HFGRTR2_EL2, HFGWTR2_EL2
4. FEAT_PFAR and following system registers.
PFAR_EL1, PFAR_EL2 and PFAR_EL12.
FEAT_RASv2, FEAT_SCTLR2, FEAT_FGT2 and FEAT_PFAR features are by default
enabled from Armv9.4-A architecture.
This patch also adds support for two read only system registers
id_aa64mmfr3_el1 and id_aa64mmfr4_el1, which are available from
Armv8-A Architecture.
This patch adds for Guarded Control Stack Extension (GCS) extension. GCS feature is
optional from Armv9.4-A architecture and enabled by passing +gcs option to -march
(eg: -march=armv9.4-a+gcs) or using ".arch_extension gcs" directive in the assembly file.
Also this patch adds support for GCS instructions gcspushx, gcspopcx, gcspopx,
gcsss1, gcsss2, gcspushm, gcspopm, gcsstr and gcssttr.
This patch adds support for Check Feature Status Extension (CHK) which
is mandatory from Armv8.0-A. Also this patch supports "chkfeat" instruction
(hint #40).
Recognize "/<number>" suffixes on both -march=+avx10.1 and the
corresponding .arch directive, setting an upper bound on the vector size
that insns may use. Such a restriction can be reset by setting a new base
architecture, by using a suffix-less form, by disabling AVX10, or by
enabling any other VEX/EVEX-based vector extension.
While for most insns we can suppress their use with too wide operands
via registers becoming unavailable (or in Intel syntax memory operand
size specifiers not being recognized), mask register insns have to have
their minimum required vector size specified in a new attribute. (Of
course this new attribute could also be used on other insns.)
Note that .insn continues to be permitted to emit EVEX{512,256} (and
VEX256 ones) encodings regardless of vector size restrictions in place.
Of course these can't be expressed using zmm (or ymm) operands then,
but need using the EVEX.512.* forms (broadcast forms may be usable right
now, but this may go away so shouldn't be relied upon). This is why no
assertions should be added to build_{e,}vex_prefix().
