AArch64: Fix Atomic LD64/ST64 classification.
Patch 1: Fix diagnostics for exclusive load/stores and reclassify Armv8.7-A ST/LD64 Atomics. Following upstream pointing out some inconsistencies in diagnostics, https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2021-February/115356.html attached is a patch set that fixes the issues. I believe a combination of two patches mainly contributed to these bugs: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2020-November/113961.html https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2018-June/103322.html A summary of what this patch set fixes: For instructions STXR w0,x2,[x0] STLXR w0,x2,[x0] The warning we emit currently is misleading: Warning: unpredictable: identical transfer and status registers --`stlxr w0,x2,[x0]' Warning: unpredictable: identical transfer and status registers --`stxr w0,x2,[x0]' it ought to be: Warning: unpredictable: identical base and status registers --`stlxr w0,x2,[x0]' Warning: unpredictable: identical base and status registers --`stxr w0,x2,[x0]' For instructions: ldaxp x0,x0,[x0] ldxp x0,x0,[x0] The warning we emit is incorrect Warning: unpredictable: identical transfer and status registers --`ldaxp x0,x0,[x0]' Warning: unpredictable: identical transfer and status registers --`ldxp x0,x0,[x0]' it ought to be: Warning: unpredictable load of register pair -- `ldaxp x0,x0,[x0]' Warning: unpredictable load of register pair -- `ldxp x0,x0,[x0]' For instructions stlxp w0, x2, x2, [x0] stxp w0, x2, x2, [x0] We don't emit any warning when it ought to be: Warning: unpredictable: identical base and status registers --`stlxp w0,x2,x2,[x0]' Warning: unpredictable: identical base and status registers --`stxp w0,x2,x2,[x0]' For instructions: st64bv x0, x2, [x0] st64bv x2, x0, [x0] We incorrectly warn when its not necessary. This is because we classify them incorrectly as ldstexcl when it should be lse_atomics in the opcode table. The incorrect classification makes it pick up the warnings from warning on exclusive load/stores. Patch 2: Reclassify Armv8.7-A ST/LD64 Atomics. This patch reclassifies ST64B{V,V0}, LD64B as lse_atomics rather than ldstexcl according to their encoding class as specified in the architecture. This also has the fortunate side-effect of spurious unpredictable warnings getting eliminated. For eg. For instruction: st64bv x0, x2, [x0] We incorrectly warn when its not necessary: Warning: unpredictable: identical transfer and status registers --`st64bv x0,x2,[x0]' This is because we classify them incorrectly as ldstexcl when it should be lse_atomics in the opcode table. The incorrect classification makes it pick up the warnings from warning on exclusive load/stores. This patch fixes it by reclassifying it and no warnings are issued for this instruction. opcodes/ChangeLog: 2021-04-09 Tejas Belagod <tejas.belagod@arm.com> * aarch64-tbl.h (struct aarch64_opcode aarch64_opcode_table): Reclassify LD64/ST64 instructions to lse_atomic instead of ldstexcl.
