+ * messages.c Moved as_perror from input-scrub.c Modified the
+ error messages to look better.
+
+ * output-file.c Don't call as_fatal, just call exit()
+
+ expr.c Slightly improve checking for foo-foo case in
+ clean_up_expression(). Detect foo: bar: ... foo-bar...
+
+Tue Dec 4 16:29:20 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * m68k.c Fixed an obscure bug involving AOFF mode with a
+ large constant displacement (Was forgetting to output the
+ extension word.)
+
+ make-gas.com Added a three line patch from Eric Youngdale that
+ makes it possible to submit make-gas.com to a batch queue.
+
+Wed Nov 21 15:07:51 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * vms.c (VMS_TBT_Routine_END) Add a four line patch from
+ Eric Youngdale.
+
+Tue Nov 13 14:02:15 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mti.edu)
+
+ * vms-dbg.c (VMS_DBG_record()) Another one character patch from
+ Eric Youngdale.
+
+Mon Oct 29 15:49:21 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * read.c Replace some as_warn calls with as_bad.
+
+Fri Oct 26 15:21:15 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * i386.c, i860.c, ns32k.c Add const changes.
+
+Mon Oct 22 14:04:26 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * sparc.c Add const changes.
+
+ * make-gas.com define const= for VMS, since many older versions of
+ GCC don't work correctly with const under VMS.
+
+Thu Oct 18 12:44:11 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * i860.c i860-opcode.h Added patches from rgb@mcc.com
+
+ * read.c, symbols.c, vms.c, + new_file vms-dbg-module.c
+ Added Eric Youngdale's <YOUNGDALE@v6550c.nrl.navy.mil> VMS debugging
+ patches, so debugging GCC output now works.
+
+ * hash.c (hash_grow) Remember to blank out the wall entry in the new
+ hash table. This is important on systems where malloc() returns
+ non-zero storage. . .
+
+Tue Oct 16 10:11:35 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * output-file.c (output_file_create) if output filename is given as
+ '-', write to stdout.
+
+ * m68k.c Finally get the PCREL code to work right. Add relaxation of
+ PCREL stuff This small fix from Ken Woodland
+ (kenny%datacube.uucp@uunet.uu.net).
+
+ * m68k.c Added some const declarations to constants. (md_relax_table,
+ md_pseudo_table, etc. . .)
+
+Thu Oct 11 11:15:10 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * Makefile, read.c, write.c Include the i860 port.
+ (New files i860.c i860-opcode.h i860.h)
+
+ * m68k.c Fix some addressing modes, (AOFF, AINDEX, etc) to work in
+ PC relative mode.
+
+ * (all over) Raeburn's const hacking. This reduces the data-space size by
+ declaring many tables, etc, as 'const'.
+
+Mon Oct 22 22:48:22 1990 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint)
+
+ Make gas work if you turn on the know() checks.
+
+ * app.c: Only pass a single space through: the one after
+ the opcode. All other whitespace is removed, to match the
+ expectations of the parser in read.c.
+
+ * as.h: Remove obsolete comments. Remove JF's NDEBUG so
+ that know() can really work if you turn it on. Make
+ SEG_MAXIMUM_ORDINAL == SEG_REGISTER.
+
+ * expr.c (operand): Change BITS_PER_INT to 8*sizeof(int).
+
+ * input-scrub.c: strlen("\0") doesn't return 1...
+ (as_where): Add space after line number in errors, like gcc.
+
+ * m68k.c (s_bss): Fake .bss into data section 255.
+ We can't cope with a real "BSS section" yet, but we can at
+ least do the right thing less efficiently (with lots of
+ zeroes).
+
+ * read.c: Turn lots of as_warn()'s into as_bad()'s.
+
+ * read.h (SKIP_WHITESPACE): Replace last instance of ASSERT()
+ with know().
+
+ * sparc.c (s_seg): We can't put frags into the BSS segment
+ yet, so just fake bss seg as 255th data segment.
+
+ * vax.c: Remove \'s from continued macro *parameters*. These
+ must have been added after the last time someone turned on
+ know() checking...
+
+ * write.c (relax_segment): Refine what we know() about the
+ symbols referenced during relaxation.
+
+ * Makefile (OTHER_ALIGN): Remove, handled in tables now.
+ Flip options a bit. These options really ought to go
+ elsewhere.
+
+Sun Oct 21 03:57:21 1990 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint)
+
+ Sun-3 fixes.
+
+ * expr.c, write.c: Missing semicolon after know().
+
+ * write.c (fixup_segment): Allow pc-relative accesses to undefined
+ external symbols. Previously this would turn off pc-rel calc
+ of displacement, while leaving pc-rel opcode alone, botching.
+
+ * m68k.c (m68k_ip): Allow pc-relative effective addresses
+ for source operands. "pea" instructions are a good example
+ where we can shorten from abs long to pc+16bit.
+ (md_convert_frag): Fix "JBSR" comments to refer to "JSR", the
+ actual instruction. Insert comments about bug in 68000 bcc
+ and dbcc long code (that doesn't get exercised much). Add
+ comments about long pcrel displacements for -pic. Remove
+ "this code has not been tested" comment.
+ (md_estimate_size_before_relax): Now that fixup_segment
+ doesn't shortcircuit pc-relative fixups for undefined symbols,
+ only output them if -pic; else turn them absolute, which is
+ slightly faster. More JBSR->JSR comments.
+ (md_parse_options): Parse -pic.
+
+Fri Oct 19 14:35:20 1990 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint)
+
+ * Make sparc assembler more compatible with Sun assembler.
+ sparc.c: reformat pseudo-op table to match main table.
+ (md_assemble): Add SPECIAL_CASE_FDIV to assemble FDIV*
+ instructions as fdiv followed by fmovs to get around chip bug.
+ (s_common, s_seg): Accept "bss" section name.
+ (md_assemble): Handle "set" instructions with absolute
+ operands, that only take one instruction rather than two.
+ sparc-opcode.h (fdiv*): Mark instructions "S"pecial.
+ subsegs.c (subseg_change): Move tail pointer too.
+ symbols.c (colon): Allow new definitions to override .comm symbols,
+ as in VMS. Sun CC depends on this.
+ write.c (new_fix): Always take r_type argument, not just on sparc.
+ Chain fixP's in order, using tail pointer, so relocation
+ records come out in forward order like Sun as. Remove SPARC
+ ifdefs.
+ write.h: Add seg_fix_tailP, data_fix_tailP, text_fix_tailP.
+
+ * am29k.c: Use s_align_bytes rather than a local copy.
+
+ * read.c (s_align): Rather than ifdef it, make two functions,
+ s_align_bytes and s_align_ptwo. Individual pseudo-op tables
+ can call whichever one they like.
+
+ * write.c (append): Move from append.c to here.
+ append.c: Remove file.
+
+ * Makefile (MDSRC, mdsrc): Easy way to edit all md.c's.
+ Fix options. Add option for -DDEBUG for know() and assert().
+ Remove append.c, am29k.h. Don't build special read-sparc.o.
+ Remove sparc.h. "make clean" removes am29k .o's. Add
+ dependencies on reloc.h.
+
+Thu Oct 18 17:56:34 1990 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint)
+
+ * Generalize sparc extensions to relocation info. Gas now
+ keeps relocation information internally in a different format
+ than how it is stored in the resulting .o. md_ri_to_bytes()
+ converts to external format. md_reloc_size says how large
+ each relocation record is in external format.
+ sparc.h: Remove this file. Rename to reloc.h. Rename struct
+ to reloc_info_generic.
+ reloc.h: Add relocation types for AMD 29000.
+ read.c, write.c: Always call fix_new with reloc-type argument.
+ write.c (emit_relocations): Make md_ri_to_bytes write directly
+ to output area rather than overwriting its argument then
+ bcopying it.
+ md.h: Declare md_reloc_size and md_ri_to_bytes.
+ i386.c, am29k.c, vax.c, ms32k.c, m68k.c, sparc.c: include reloc.h.
+ (md_reloc_size): Specify correct value.
+ (md_ri_to_bytes): Convert format from internal to external.
+
+ write.c (write_object_file): Call md_section_align() which
+ rounds section sizes up if desired.
+ sparc.c (md_section_align): Round to 8 byte boundary.
+ i386.c, am29k.c, vax.c, ns32k.c, m68k.c (md_section_align): Nop.
+
+Mon Oct 15 22:06:11 1990 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint)
+
+ Changes in support of the AMD 29000 version of gas.
+
+ * am29k-opcode.h: Add dummy entry to end so we can examine
+ item N+1 without exceeding table.
+
+ * am29k.h: New include file, derived from sparc.h. Kludged
+ together, still needs major work to get relocation working.
+
+ * am29k.c: New file, derived from sparc.c.
+ Put 29k-specific ASM29K pseudo-ops into table.
+ Change comment_chars to ASM29K.
+ Change s_seg to s_use.
+ Change s_sparc_align to s_29k_align, default operand to 4.
+ (define_some_regs): Define special register names.
+ (md_begin): Preprocess opcode table to mash together all
+ the variants of single opcodes. This simplifies later handling.
+ Call define_some_regs to preset special reg names.
+ (parse_operand): Add, parses out an operand from a stmt.
+ (machine_ip): Simplify, since 29K is simpler asm language.
+ Handle the various keyletters in the opcode table.
+
+
+ Handle include files in the assembler, with a .include
+ pseudo-op.
+ * as.h (input_scrub_include_file): declare.
+ * as.c (perform_an_assembly_pass): Avoid buffer hacking.
+ Start us off in text segment.
+ * read.c (read_a_source_file): Take a name as argument,
+ internalize all buffer handling. Don't start a new text
+ subsegment on each entry. Actually use the start and end
+ pointers returned by input_scrub_next_buffer.
+ (s_include): Call input_scrub_include_file for .include.
+ * input-scrub.c: Fix comments.
+ (struct input_save): Add, for saving state at .include.
+ (input_scrub_push, input_scrub_pop): Add, push & pop state.
+ (input_scrub_begin): Initialize next_saved_file.
+ (input_scrub_end): Free buffer.
+ (input_scrub_include_file): Add, to include a file.
+ (input_scrub_close): Add, to close a file.
+ (input_scrub_next_buffer): Set buffer-start address for
+ caller. If we hit EOF and were included, pop to previous file.
+ * input-file.c: Remove old includes. Remove old file-descriptor
+ hacking code, that was commented out.
+ (struct saved_file): Add, for saving state at .include.
+ (input_file_push, input_file_pop): Add, push & pop state.
+ (input_file_open): Don't buffer all files in one place.
+ (input_file_close): Add, close input file.
+ * input-file.h: Declare new functions.
+ * app.c: (struct app_save): Add, for saving state at .include.
+ (app_push, app_pop): Add, push and pop state.
+ (do_scrub_next_char): Move its static state variables out so
+ they can be saved and restored.
+
+
+ * app.c: Allow overriding of character meanings by machine
+ dependent strings. Avoid wiring character constants into app.c.
+ (do_scrub_begin): New meanings override old ones, not "OR" them.
+ Only handle /* comments if / is not already in use.
+ (do_scrub_next_char): Reorganize mass of nested if's
+ into a switch for speed. Don't assume ';' is line terminator.
+ Reorganize switch on characters, into a switch on their (machine-
+ dependent) lexer table meanings.
+
+
+ Encapsulate knowledge of segment types in fewer places.
+ This allows us to add the "SEG_REGISTER" type, as well as
+ providing flexibility for eventual COFF/ELF support.
+ * struc-symbol.h (symbol_to_segment, symbol_to_segment_type,
+ set_symbol_segment, set_symbol_segment_keep_ext,
+ segment_name): Define macros to encapsulate this info.
+ * as.h: Remove externs for seg_name, seg_N_TYPE, N_TYPE_seg.
+ * symbols.c (symbol_new): Change 'type' arg to 'seg'.
+ * expr.c, i386.c, m68k.c, ns32k.c, read.c, symbols.c, vax.c,
+ write.c: Use macros.
+ * i386.c, m68k.c, ns32k.c, vax.c, write.c: Change 2nd arg type of
+ md_estimate_size_before_relax.
+ * expr.c, read.c: Change 'type' arg to symbol_new.
+ * read.c, symbols.c, vax.c, write.c: Move md.h to end of includes.
+
+
+ Allow expressions to evaluate to registers.
+ * as.h: Add SEG_REGISTER.
+ * struc-symbol.h: Add fake N_REGISTER type.
+ * subseg.c: Add types to tables.
+ * expr.c (operand): Symbols of SEG_REGISTER type are
+ immediately evaluated like those of SEG_ABSOLUTE.
+ (clean_up_expression): Clean up SEG_REGISTER exprs.
+
+
+ Allow machine descriptions to cleanly extend the set of
+ possible operands.
+ * expr.c (operand): Call md_operand before rejecting an
+ operand as unacceptable.
+ * md.h: declare.
+ * i386.c, ns32k.c, m68k.c, sparc.c, vax.c: Define null function.
+ * am29k.c (md_operand): Use this for %% and & prefix operators.
+
+
+ Allow machine descriptions to cleanly permit symbols to be
+ predefined upon first usage.
+ * symbols.c (symbol_find_or_make): Call md_undefined_symbol
+ before making an undefined symbol.
+ * md.h: declare.
+ * i386.c, ns32k.c, m68k.c, sparc.c, vax.c: Define null function.
+ * am29k.c (md_undefined_symbol): use this for the local and
+ global register names; since there are hundreds of them, it
+ only defines them upon their first use.
+ * expr.c (operand): Call symbol_find_or_make rather than
+ roll our own undefined symbols.
+
+
+ Miscellaneous changes:
+
+ * as.h (know): Make this useful if DEBUG defined.
+
+ * write.h: Support SPARC-like relocation throughout all
+ versions.
+
+ * read.c (read_a_source_file): Report the name of invalid
+ pseudo-ops. Don't double-report junk characters. Close the
+ input file, which gas never used to do.
+ (ignore_rest_of_line): Report junk chars in ascii if
+ printable.
+ (s_ignore): Ignore entire statement; used for 'listing
+ control' statements from ASM29K, e.g. .eject.
+
+ * read.c (s_lsym): Handle register equates too.
+
+ * read.c: Add most ASM29K pseudo-ops to the master table.
+ Not all are implemented yet.
+
+ * cond.c: New file, for functions implementing conditional
+ assembly pseudo-ops: .ifdef, .ifndef, .else, .endif, .ifseq,
+ .ifsne, .end. So far, they are just stubbed out.
+
+ * read.c (pobegin): Allow the machine dependent pseudo-op
+ table to override the generic one. Remove #ifdef SPARC
+ on .word, since it can now be overridden.
+
+ * expr.c (operand): Support radix-2 constants. Kill off
+ support for octals with digits '8' and '9'. Initial steps
+ toward more general support for local-labels.
+
+ * symbols.h (symbol_table_lookup): Remove macro, change all
+ occurrences (in read.c, expr.c, symbols.c) to symbol_find.
+
+ * read.h (is_end_of_line): Define for external use.
+
+ * i386.c (alloca): Use builtin_alloca or include or extern.
+
+ * Makefile: Add ALL and all: entries. Add asm29k entries.
+ Add cond.c and cond.o. Remove special handling for messages.o.
+ Add lint entry.
+
+Thu Sep 27 13:43:49 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

+
+Tue Sep 25 15:50:36 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * sparc.c (md_number_to_imm) Fix so that RELOC_32 locations contain
+ zero, so that it will work with some sparc loaders which don't assume
+ that the locations in question do. A xix line patch from Michael Bloom
+ (usc!srhqla!quad1!psivax!ttidca!mb@zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu)
+
+Mon Sep 24 11:43:15 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * as.c #include <sys/types.h> if _POSIX_SOURCE defined. This because
+ <signal.h> uses pid_t that's defined in it.
+
+ * m68k.c reverse the sense of -l option, and allow :w and :l to
+ override the default size of AOFF indexes.
+
+ Also, allow -l to shorten branches to unknown labels from LONG to WORD.
+
+Thu Sep 13 17:05:09 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

+Tue Sep 4 11:40:21 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason
+
+ * read.c (pseudo_set) Compain if we're setting the symbol to the
+ difference of two symbols which are in different frags. (We can't
+ find out how far apart they are.)
+
+Wed Aug 15 12:18:58 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason
+
+ * m68k.c (m68k_ip_op) Dyke out the code that deals with parsing
+ :[wl] at the end of expressions since it is handled in get_num()
+ and this was putting the result in the wrong place anyway.
+ Corrected a couple of other references to ->isiz instead of con?->e_siz
+
+Mon Aug 13 15:53:46 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason
+
+ * read.c Handle .align specially on the sparc, or any other machine
+ where OTHER_ALIGN is defined. Added option and comments about it
+ to Makefile.
+
+Fri Aug 10 12:24:33 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason
+
+ * m68k.c (get_num) Handle SEG_PASS1 expressions.

+
+ * write.c (fixup_segment) Added two patches for the NS32k
+ and SEQUENT A six line patch from Ian Dall
+ (asgard!aegir!hugin!augean!sibyl!ian@munnari.oz.au)
+
+Wed Aug 1 13:30:48 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

+
+Mon Jul 16 11:44:14 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+

+ * i386.c (md_assemble) Get bitfields correct when doing cross
+ assembly to 386. A two line patch from Michael Bloom.

+ imull foo,%eax no longer gets assembled into the 32-64 bit
+ multiply, which clobbers %edx behind gcc's back
+
+ jcxz/jecxz were backwards
+
+ There was a bug when using %ebp as a base register with no
+ displacement
+
+ Instructions like andb $0xffffff, %al used to put out too many
+ immediate bytes
+
+ The splitting jump instructions across frags could happen when
+ obstack_room()==6 too.
