PowerPC VLE
VLE is an encoding, not a particular processor architecture, so it isn't really proper to select insns based on PPC_OPCODE_VLE. For example {"evaddw", VX (4, 512), VX_MASK, PPCSPE|PPCVLE, PPCNONE, {RS, RA, RB}}, {"vaddubs", VX (4, 512), VX_MASK, PPCVEC|PPCVLE, PPCNONE, {VD, VA, VB}}, shows two insns that have the same encoding, both available with VLE. Enabling both with VLE means we can't disassemble the second variant even if -Maltivec is given rather than -Mspe. Also, we don't check user assembly against the processor type as well as we could. Another problem is that when using the VLE encoding, insns from the main ppc opcode table are not available, except those using opcode 4 and 31. Correcting this revealed two errors in the ld testsuite, use of "nop" and "rfmci" when -mvle. This patch fixes those problems in the opcode table, and removes PPCNONE. I find a plain 0 distracts less from other values. In addition, I've implemented code to recognize some machine values from the apuinfo note present in ppc32 objects. It's not a complete disambiguation since we're lacking info to detect newer chips, but what we have should help with disassembly. include/ * elf/ppc.h (APUINFO_SECTION_NAME, APUINFO_LABEL, PPC_APUINFO_ISEL, PPC_APUINFO_PMR, PPC_APUINFO_RFMCI, PPC_APUINFO_CACHELCK, PPC_APUINFO_SPE, PPC_APUINFO_EFS, PPC_APUINFO_BRLOCK, PPC_APUINFO_VLE: Define. opcodes/ * ppc-dis.c (ppc_opts): Delete extraneous parentheses.
