RISC-V: Add pause hint instruction.
Add support for the pause hint instruction, as specified in the Zihintpause extension. The pause instruction is encoded as a special form of a memory fence (which is available as part of the base instruction set). The chosen encoding does not mandate any particular memory ordering and therefore is a true hint. bfd/ * elfxx-riscv.c (riscv_std_z_ext_strtab): Added zihintpause. gas/ * config/tc-riscv.c (riscv_multi_subset_supports): Added INSN_CLASS_ZIHINTPAUSE. * testsuite/gas/riscv/pause.d: New testcase. Adding coverage for the pause hint instruction. * testsuite/gas/riscv/pause.s: Likewise. include/ * opcode/riscv-opc.h: Added MATCH_PAUSE, MASK_PAUSE and DECLARE_INSN for pause hint instruction. * opcode/riscv.h (enum riscv_insn_class): Added INSN_CLASS_ZIHINTPAUSE. opcodes/ * riscv-opc.c (riscv_opcodes): Add pause hint instruction.
