[AArch64] Support RAS extension for ARMv8 onwards.
The RAS extension was introduced as part of the ARMv8.2 architecture where it is a required feature. It is also available as an optional feature for ARMv8 and ARMv8.1. In binutils, the RAS extension is currently enabled by default for -march=armv8.2-a but is not available for -march=armv8 or -march=armv8.1-a. This patch adds the feature extension '+ras' to enable the RAS extension for ARMv8 and ARMv8.1, it is disabled by default. gas/ 2016-04-20 Matthew Wahab <matthew.wahab@arm.com> * config/tc-aarch64.c (aarch64_features): Add "ras". * doc/c-aarch64.texi (AArch64 Extensions): Add "ras". * testsuite/gas/aarch64/armv8-ras-1.d: New. * testsuite/gas/aarch64/armv8-ras-1.s: New. * testsuite/gas/aarch64/illegal-ras-1.d: New. * testsuite/gas/aarch64/illegal-ras-1.s: New.
