Power10 bignum operands
When built on a 32-bit host without --enable-64-bit-bfd, powerpc-linux and other 32-bit powerpc targeted binutils fail to assemble some power10 prefixed instructions with 34-bit fields. A typical error seen when running the testsuite is .../gas/testsuite/gas/ppc/prefix-pcrel.s:10: Error: bignum invalid In practice this doesn't matter for addresses: 32-bit programs don't need or use the top 2 bits of a d34 field when calculating addresses. However it may matter when loading or adding 64-bit constants with paddi. A power10 processor in 32-bit mode still has 64-bit wide GPRs. So this patch enables limited support for O_big PowerPC operands, and corrects sign extension of 32-bit constants using X_extrabit. * config/tc-ppc.c (insn_validate): Use uint64_t for operand values. (md_assemble): Likewise. Handle bignum operands. (ppc_elf_suffix): Handle O_big. Remove unnecessary input_line_pointer check. * expr.c: Delete unnecessary forward declarations. (generic_bignum_to_int32): Return uint32_t. (generic_bignum_to_int64): Return uint64_t. Compile always. (operand): Twiddle X_extrabit for unary '~'. Set X_unsigned and clear X_extrabit for unary '!'. * expr.h (generic_bignum_to_int32): Declare. (generic_bignum_to_int64): Declare. * testsuite/gas/ppc/prefix-pcrel.s, * testsuite/gas/ppc/prefix-pcrel.d: Add more instructions.
