[PATCH, BINUTILS, AARCH64, 7/9] Add BTI instruction
This patch is part of the patch series to add support for ARMv8.5-A extensions. (https://developer.arm.com/products/architecture/cpu-architecture/a-profile/docs/ddi0596/a/a64-base-instructions-alphabetic-order/bti-branch-target-identification) The Branch Target Identification instructions (BTI) are allocated to existing HINT space, using HINT numbers 32, 34, 36, 38, such that bits[7:6] of the instruction identify the compatibility of the BTI instruction to different branches. BTI {<targets>} where <targets> one of the following, specifying which type of indirection is allowed: j : Can be a target of any BR Xn isntruction. c : Can be a target of any BLR Xn and BR {X16|X17}. jc: Can be a target of any free branch. A BTI instruction without any <targets> is the strictest of all and can not be a target of nay free branch. *** include/ChangeLog *** 2018-10-09 Sudakshina Das <sudi.das@arm.com> * opcode/aarch64.h (AARCH64_FEATURE_BTI): New. (AARCH64_ARCH_V8_5): Add AARCH64_FEATURE_BTI by default. (aarch64_opnd): Add AARCH64_OPND_BTI_TARGET. (HINT_OPD_CSYNC, HINT_OPD_C, HINT_OPD_J): New macros to define HINT #imm values.

(aarch64_print_operand): Add case for AARCH64_OPND_BTI_TARGET while checking for HINT_OPD_F_NOPRINT flag. * aarch64-dis.c (aarch64_ext_hint): Use new HINT_VALUE to extract value. * aarch64-tbl.h (aarch64_feature_bti, BTI, BTI_INSN): New.
