2005-05-06 Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> * macro.c (new_formal, del_formal): New. (do_formals): Use new_formal. Check for and parse qualifier. Warn if required argument has default value. Stop looking for more formal when there was a vararg one. (macro_expand_body): Use new_formal and del_formal. (macro_expand): Likewise. Initialize local variable err. Don't return immediately when encountering an error. Warn when keyword argument already had a value assigned. Eliminate duplicate clearing of argument value. When current positional argument matches parameter of vararg type, assign to it all the remaining arguments. Issue error when required parameter does not have value. (free_macro): Use del_formal. (expand_irp): Initialize formal type. Free buffers associated with formal prior to returning. * macro.h (struct formal_struct): Add new field 'type' with new enumeration type 'formal_type'. * doc/as.texinfo: Document macro parameter qualifiers. * NEWS: Mention new functionality. gas/testsuite/ 2005-05-06 Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> * gas/macros/badarg.s: Add check for bad qualifier specification. * gas/macros/badarg.l: Adjust. * gas/macros/vararg.[sd]: New. * gas/macros/macros.exp: Run new test.

+* Macros with a variable number of arguments are now supported. See the
+ documentation for how this works.

* Added --reduce-memory-overheads switch to reduce the size of the hash
tables used, at the expense of longer assembly times, and
--hash-size=<NUMBER> to set the size of the hash tables used by gas.
