[AArch64][SVE 20/32] Add support for tied operands
SVE has some instructions in which the same register appears twice in the assembly string, once as an input and once as an output. This patch adds a general mechanism for that. The patch needs to add new information to the instruction entries. One option would have been to extend the flags field of the opcode to 64 bits (since we already rely on 64-bit integers being available on the host). However, the *_INSN macros mean that it's easy to add new information as top-level fields without affecting the existing table entries too much. Going for that option seemed to give slightly neater code. include/ * opcode/aarch64.h (aarch64_opcode): Add a tied_operand field. (AARCH64_OPDE_UNTIED_OPERAND): New aarch64_operand_error_kind. opcodes/ * aarch64-tbl.h (CORE_INSN, __FP_INSN, SIMD_INSN, CRYP_INSN) (_CRC_INSN, _LSE_INSN, _LOR_INSN, RDMA_INSN, FP16_INSN, SF16_INSN) (V8_2_INSN, aarch64_opcode_table): Initialize tied_operand field. * aarch64-opc.c (aarch64_match_operands_constraint): Check for tied operands. gas/ * config/tc-aarch64.c (output_operand_error_record): Handle AARCH64_OPDE_UNTIED_OPERAND.
