MIPS16/GAS: Improve non-constant operand error diagnostics
Improve operand error diagnostics for non-constant expressions used for a 16-bit immediate, making the message more descriptive and indicating the offending operand, e.g.: foo.s:1: Error: invalid operands `lui $2,foo-bar' will show as: foo.s:1: Error: operand 2 must be constant `lui $2,foo-bar' This case does not currently trigger however, for two reasons. First, for regular MIPS and microMIPS assembly in the case of no match caused by `match_int_operand' here, the function is always called again from `mips_ip' via `match_insns', `match_insn' and then `match_operand' for the same opcode table's entry with `lax_match' set to TRUE, in which case the attempt to match succeeds and no error is issued. Second, in the case of MIPS16 assembly no call to `match_int_operand' is made at all for 16-bit immediates, because such immediates are currently only matched with extensible instructions, and these are handled in `match_mips16_insn' via `match_expression' directly rather than via `match_operand'. This will change for MIPS16 code with MIPS16e2 support introduced, where non-extensible instructions accepting 16-bit immediates will be added, so make the case work well right from the start. gas/ * config/tc-mips.c (match_int_operand): Call `match_not_constant' before returning failure for a non-constant 16-bit immediate conditionally allowed.
