[AArch64][PATCH 1/14] Support ARMv8.2 FP16 Adv.SIMD instructions.
ARMv8.2 adds 16-bit floating point operations as an optional extension to floating point and Adv.SIMD support. This patch set adds the 16-bit Adv.SIMD vector and scalar instructions to binutils, making them available when both +simd and +fp16 architecture extensions are enabled. The series also adds support for a new vector type, 2H, used by the FP16 scalar pairwise instructions. The patches in this series: - Add a FP16 Adv.SIMD feature macro for use by the encoding/decoding routines. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Vector Three Register Same. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Scalar Three Register Same. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Vector Two Register Misc. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Scalar Two Register Misc. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Vector Indexed Element. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Scalar Indexed Element. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Adv.SIMD Across Lanes. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Adv.SIMD Modified Immediate. - Rework some code for handling vector types to weaken its assumptions about available vector-types. - Add support for the 2H vector type. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Adv.SIMD Scalar Pairwise. - Add FP16 instructions in the group Adv.SIMD Shift By Immediate. - Add a FP16 instructions in the group Adv.SIMD Scalar Shift By Immediate. This patch adds the feature macro SIMD_F16 to the AArch64 encoding/decoding routines. It is used to decide when the new instructions are available to the assembler and is true when both +simd and +fp16 are selected. opcodes/ 2015-12-14 Matthew Wahab <matthew.wahab@arm.com> * aarch64-tbl.h (aarch64_feature_simd_f16): New.
