H.J. Lu <hjl@gnu.org>         * config/tc-mips.c (mips_arch): New. Use mips_arch instead         of mips_cpu for the ISA selection.         (md_longopts): Add OPTION_MARCH and OPTION_MTUNE.         (md_parse_option): Handle OPTION_MARCH and OPTION_MTUNE. (mips_tune): New. Use mips_tune for scheduling and optimization issues. (append_insn): Use mips_tune and mips_arch. (macro_build): Ditto. (mips_ip): Ditto. (md_begin): Handle mips_arch, mips_tune and mips_cpu. For backwards compatability mips_cpu generates arch and tune. (md_show_usage): Document new behavior. * doc/c-mips.texi (MIPS Opts): Document -march and -mtune. Deprecate -mcpu. * NEWS: Update. 2001-06-28 Eric Christopher <echristo@redhat.com> * gas/mips/usd.d: Change for march/mtune. * gas/mips/ulh-xgot.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/uld.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/trunc.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/rol.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/nodelay.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mul.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mul-ilocks.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/trap20.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mips4.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mips16.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/lif-xgot.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/lif-svr4pic.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/ld-xgot.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/ld-svr4pic.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/ld-ilocks-addr32.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/lb-xgot.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/jal-xgot.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/jal-svr4pic.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/delay.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/lb-xgot-ilocks.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/div.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/break20.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/delay.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/elf_e_flags3.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/elf_e_flags4.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/lineno.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mips16.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mips4.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mips4010.d: Ditto. * gas/mips/mips4650.d: Ditto.
