MIPS/GAS: Split Loongson MMI Instructions from loongson2f/3a
The MMI instruction set has been implemented in many Loongson processors. There is a lot of software optimized for MMI. This patch splits MMI from loongson2f/3a, and adds GAS and disassembler options for MMI instructions. 2018-07-20 Chenghua Xu <paul.hua.gm@gmail.com> Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@mips.com> bfd/ * elfxx-mips.c (print_mips_ases): Add MMI extension. binutils/ * readelf.c (print_mips_ases): Add MMI extension. gas/ * NEWS: Mention MultiMedia extensions Instructions (MMI) support. * config/tc-mips.c (options): Add OPTION_LOONGSON_MMI and OPTION_NO_LOONGSON_MMI.
