-If your target defines any fundamental types, or any types your target

-to return the appropriate encoding for these types as part of a C++

-Target-specific fundamental types might be new fundamental types or

 @hook TARGET_PREFERRED_RELOAD_CLASS
-A target hook that places additional restrictions on the register class
-to use when it is necessary to copy value @var{x} into a register in class
-@var{rclass}.  The value is a register class; perhaps @var{rclass}, or perhaps
-another, smaller class.
-
-The default version of this hook always returns value of @code{rclass} argument.
-
-Sometimes returning a more restrictive class makes better code.  For
-example, on the 68000, when @var{x} is an integer constant that is in range
-for a @samp{moveq} instruction, the value of this macro is always
-@code{DATA_REGS} as long as @var{rclass} includes the data registers.
-Requiring a data register guarantees that a @samp{moveq} will be used.
-
-One case where @code{TARGET_PREFERRED_RELOAD_CLASS} must not return
-@var{rclass} is if @var{x} is a legitimate constant which cannot be
-loaded into some register class.  By returning @code{NO_REGS} you can
-force @var{x} into a memory location.  For example, rs6000 can load
-immediate values into general-purpose registers, but does not have an
-instruction for loading an immediate value into a floating-point
-register, so @code{TARGET_PREFERRED_RELOAD_CLASS} returns @code{NO_REGS} when
-@var{x} is a floating-point constant.  If the constant can't be loaded
-into any kind of register, code generation will be better if
-@code{TARGET_LEGITIMATE_CONSTANT_P} makes the constant illegitimate instead

-
-If an insn has pseudos in it after register allocation, reload will go
-through the alternatives and call repeatedly @code{TARGET_PREFERRED_RELOAD_CLASS}
-to find the best one.  Returning @code{NO_REGS}, in this case, makes

 @hook TARGET_SECONDARY_RELOAD
-Many machines have some registers that cannot be copied directly to or
-from memory or even from other types of registers.  An example is the
-@samp{MQ} register, which on most machines, can only be copied to or
-from general registers, but not memory.  Below, we shall be using the
-term 'intermediate register' when a move operation cannot be performed
-directly, but has to be done by copying the source into the intermediate
-register first, and then copying the intermediate register to the
-destination.  An intermediate register always has the same mode as
-source and destination.  Since it holds the actual value being copied,
-reload might apply optimizations to re-use an intermediate register
-and eliding the copy from the source when it can determine that the
-intermediate register still holds the required value.
-
-Another kind of secondary reload is required on some machines which
-allow copying all registers to and from memory, but require a scratch
-register for stores to some memory locations (e.g., those with symbolic
-address on the RT, and those with certain symbolic address on the SPARC
-when compiling PIC)@.  Scratch registers need not have the same mode
-as the value being copied, and usually hold a different value than
-that being copied.  Special patterns in the md file are needed to
-describe how the copy is performed with the help of the scratch register;
-these patterns also describe the number, register class(es) and mode(s)
-of the scratch register(s).
-
-In some cases, both an intermediate and a scratch register are required.
-
-For input reloads, this target hook is called with nonzero @var{in_p},
-and @var{x} is an rtx that needs to be copied to a register of class
-@var{reload_class} in @var{reload_mode}.  For output reloads, this target
-hook is called with zero @var{in_p}, and a register of class @var{reload_class}
-needs to be copied to rtx @var{x} in @var{reload_mode}.
-
-If copying a register of @var{reload_class} from/to @var{x} requires
-an intermediate register, the hook @code{secondary_reload} should
-return the register class required for this intermediate register.
-If no intermediate register is required, it should return NO_REGS.
-If more than one intermediate register is required, describe the one
-that is closest in the copy chain to the reload register.
-
-If scratch registers are needed, you also have to describe how to
-perform the copy from/to the reload register to/from this
-closest intermediate register.  Or if no intermediate register is
-required, but still a scratch register is needed, describe the
-copy  from/to the reload register to/from the reload operand @var{x}.
-
-You do this by setting @code{sri->icode} to the instruction code of a pattern
-in the md file which performs the move.  Operands 0 and 1 are the output
-and input of this copy, respectively.  Operands from operand 2 onward are
-for scratch operands.  These scratch operands must have a mode, and a
-single-register-class
-@c [later: or memory]
-output constraint.
-
-When an intermediate register is used, the @code{secondary_reload}
-hook will be called again to determine how to copy the intermediate
-register to/from the reload operand @var{x}, so your hook must also
-have code to handle the register class of the intermediate operand.
-
-@c [For later: maybe we'll allow multi-alternative reload patterns -
-@c   the port maintainer could name a mov<mode> pattern that has clobbers -
-@c   and match the constraints of input and output to determine the required
-@c   alternative.  A restriction would be that constraints used to match
-@c   against reloads registers would have to be written as register class
-@c   constraints, or we need a new target macro / hook that tells us if an
-@c   arbitrary constraint can match an unknown register of a given class.
-@c   Such a macro / hook would also be useful in other places.]
-
-
-@var{x} might be a pseudo-register or a @code{subreg} of a
-pseudo-register, which could either be in a hard register or in memory.
-Use @code{true_regnum} to find out; it will return @minus{}1 if the pseudo is
-in memory and the hard register number if it is in a register.
-
-Scratch operands in memory (constraint @code{"=m"} / @code{"=&m"}) are
-currently not supported.  For the time being, you will have to continue
-to use @code{SECONDARY_MEMORY_NEEDED} for that purpose.
-
-@code{copy_cost} also uses this target hook to find out how values are
-copied.  If you want it to include some extra cost for the need to allocate
-(a) scratch register(s), set @code{sri->extra_cost} to the additional cost.
-Or if two dependent moves are supposed to have a lower cost than the sum

 @hook TARGET_ASM_OUTPUT_MI_THUNK
-A function that outputs the assembler code for a thunk
-function, used to implement C++ virtual function calls with multiple
-inheritance.  The thunk acts as a wrapper around a virtual function,
-adjusting the implicit object parameter before handing control off to
-the real function.
-
-First, emit code to add the integer @var{delta} to the location that
-contains the incoming first argument.  Assume that this argument
-contains a pointer, and is the one used to pass the @code{this} pointer
-in C++.  This is the incoming argument @emph{before} the function prologue,
-e.g.@: @samp{%o0} on a sparc.  The addition must preserve the values of
-all other incoming arguments.
-
-Then, if @var{vcall_offset} is nonzero, an additional adjustment should be
-made after adding @code{delta}.  In particular, if @var{p} is the
-adjusted pointer, the following adjustment should be made:
-
-@smallexample
-p += (*((ptrdiff_t **)p))[vcall_offset/sizeof(ptrdiff_t)]
-@end smallexample
-
-After the additions, emit code to jump to @var{function}, which is a
-@code{FUNCTION_DECL}.  This is a direct pure jump, not a call, and does
-not touch the return address.  Hence returning from @var{FUNCTION} will
-return to whoever called the current @samp{thunk}.
-
-The effect must be as if @var{function} had been called directly with
-the adjusted first argument.  This macro is responsible for emitting all
-of the code for a thunk function; @code{TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_PROLOGUE}
-and @code{TARGET_ASM_FUNCTION_EPILOGUE} are not invoked.
-
-The @var{thunk_fndecl} is redundant.  (@var{delta} and @var{function}
-have already been extracted from it.)  It might possibly be useful on
-some targets, but probably not.
-
-If you do not define this macro, the target-independent code in the C++

-Legitimate addresses are defined in two variants: a strict variant and a

-
-The strict variant is used in the reload pass.  It must be defined so

-kind of register is required, a pseudo-register with no hard register
-must be rejected.  For non-hard registers, the strict variant should look

-The non-strict variant is used in other passes.  It must be defined to
-accept all pseudo-registers in every context where some kind of
-register is required.
-
-Normally, constant addresses which are the sum of a @code{symbol_ref}

-For most CISC machines, the default cost is a good approximation of the

-
-For example, suppose an address that is equal to the sum of a register

-is not defined, the address will be computed in a register and memory
-references will be indirect through that register.  On machines where

-Select a replacement for a machine specific built-in function that
-was set up by @samp{TARGET_INIT_BUILTINS}.  This is done

-implement a crude form of function overloading.  @var{fndecl} is the

+\n\
+The strict variant is used in the reload pass.  It must be defined so\n\

+@samp{MQ} register, which on most machines, can only be copied to or\n\

+term 'intermediate register' when a move operation cannot be performed\n\
+directly, but has to be done by copying the source into the intermediate\n\
+register first, and then copying the intermediate register to the\n\
+destination.  An intermediate register always has the same mode as\n\

+reload might apply optimizations to re-use an intermediate register\n\
+and eliding the copy from the source when it can determine that the\n\
+intermediate register still holds the required value.\n\
+\n\
+Another kind of secondary reload is required on some machines which\n\
+allow copying all registers to and from memory, but require a scratch\n\
+register for stores to some memory locations (e.g., those with symbolic\n\
+address on the RT, and those with certain symbolic address on the SPARC\n\
+when compiling PIC)@.  Scratch registers need not have the same mode\n\
+as the value being copied, and usually hold a different value than\n\
+that being copied.  Special patterns in the md file are needed to\n\
+describe how the copy is performed with the help of the scratch register;\n\
+these patterns also describe the number, register class(es) and mode(s)\n\
+of the scratch register(s).\n\
+\n\
+In some cases, both an intermediate and a scratch register are required.\n\
+\n\
+For input reloads, this target hook is called with nonzero @var{in_p},\n\

+@var{reload_class} in @var{reload_mode}.  For output reloads, this target\n\
+hook is called with zero @var{in_p}, and a register of class @var{reload_class}\n\
+needs to be copied to rtx @var{x} in @var{reload_mode}.\n\
+\n\
+If copying a register of @var{reload_class} from/to @var{x} requires\n\
+an intermediate register, the hook @code{secondary_reload} should\n\
+return the register class required for this intermediate register.\n\
+If no intermediate register is required, it should return NO_REGS.\n\
+If more than one intermediate register is required, describe the one\n\
+that is closest in the copy chain to the reload register.\n\
+\n\
+If scratch registers are needed, you also have to describe how to\n\
+perform the copy from/to the reload register to/from this\n\
+closest intermediate register.  Or if no intermediate register is\n\
+required, but still a scratch register is needed, describe the\n\
+copy  from/to the reload register to/from the reload operand @var{x}.\n\
+\n\
+You do this by setting @code{sri->icode} to the instruction code of a pattern\n\
+in the md file which performs the move.  Operands 0 and 1 are the output\n\
+and input of this copy, respectively.  Operands from operand 2 onward are\n\
+for scratch operands.  These scratch operands must have a mode, and a\n\
+single-register-class\n\
+@c [later: or memory]\n\
+output constraint.\n\
+\n\
+When an intermediate register is used, the @code{secondary_reload}\n\

+register to/from the reload operand @var{x}, so your hook must also\n\
+have code to handle the register class of the intermediate operand.\n\
+\n\
+@c [For later: maybe we'll allow multi-alternative reload patterns -\n\
+@c   the port maintainer could name a mov<mode> pattern that has clobbers -\n\
+@c   and match the constraints of input and output to determine the required\n\
+@c   alternative.  A restriction would be that constraints used to match\n\
+@c   against reloads registers would have to be written as register class\n\
+@c   constraints, or we need a new target macro / hook that tells us if an\n\
+@c   arbitrary constraint can match an unknown register of a given class.\n\
+@c   Such a macro / hook would also be useful in other places.]\n\
+\n\
+\n\
+@var{x} might be a pseudo-register or a @code{subreg} of a\n\
+pseudo-register, which could either be in a hard register or in memory.\n\
+Use @code{true_regnum} to find out; it will return @minus{}1 if the pseudo is\n\
