# run_dump_test FILE
# Copied from gas testsuite, tweaked and further extended.
#
# Assemble a .s file, then run some utility on it and check the output.
#
# There should be an assembly language file named FILE.s in the test
# suite directory, and a pattern file called FILE.d.  `run_dump_test'
# will assemble FILE.s, run some tool like `objdump', `objcopy', or
# `nm' on the .o file to produce textual output, and then analyze that
# with regexps.  The FILE.d file specifies what program to run, and
# what to expect in its output.
#
# The FILE.d file begins with zero or more option lines, which specify
# flags to pass to the assembler, the program to run to dump the
# assembler's output, and the options it wants.  The option lines have
# the syntax:
#
#         # OPTION: VALUE
#
# OPTION is the name of some option, like "name" or "objdump", and
# VALUE is OPTION's value.  The valid options are described below.
# Whitespace is ignored everywhere, except within VALUE.  The option
# list ends with the first line that doesn't match the above syntax
# (hmm, not great for error detection).
#
# The interesting options are:
#
#   name: TEST-NAME
#	The name of this test, passed to DejaGNU's `pass' and `fail'
#       commands.  If omitted, this defaults to FILE, the root of the
#       .s and .d files' names.
#
#   as: FLAGS
#	When assembling, pass FLAGS to the assembler.
#       If assembling several files, you can pass different assembler
#       options in the "source" directives.  See below.
#
#   ld: FLAGS
#       Link assembled files using FLAGS, in the order of the "source"
#       directives, when using multiple files.
#
#   ld_after_inputfiles: FLAGS
#       Similar to "ld", but put after all input files.
#
#   objcopy_linked_file: FLAGS
#	Run objcopy on the linked file with the specified flags.
#	This lets you transform the linked file using objcopy, before the
#	result is analyzed by an analyzer program specified below (which
#	may in turn *also* be objcopy).
#
#   PROG: PROGRAM-NAME
#       The name of the program to run to analyze the .o file produced
#       by the assembler or the linker output.  This can be omitted;
#       run_dump_test will guess which program to run by seeing which of
#       the flags options below is present.
#
#   objdump: FLAGS
#   nm: FLAGS
#   objcopy: FLAGS
#	Use the specified program to analyze the assembler or linker
#       output file, and pass it FLAGS, in addition to the output name.
#	Note that they are run with LC_ALL=C in the environment to give
#	consistent sorting of symbols.
#
#   source: SOURCE [FLAGS]
#	Assemble the file SOURCE.s using the flags in the "as" directive
#       and the (optional) FLAGS.  If omitted, the source defaults to
#       FILE.s.
#       This is useful if several .d files want to share a .s file.
#       More than one "source" directive can be given, which is useful
#       when testing linking.
#
#   xfail: TARGET
#       The test is expected to fail on TARGET.  This may occur more than
#       once.
#
#   target: TARGET
#       Only run the test for TARGET.  This may occur more than once; the
#       target being tested must match at least one.  You may provide target
#       name "cfi" for any target supporting the CFI statements.
#
#   notarget: TARGET
#       Do not run the test for TARGET.  This may occur more than once;
#       the target being tested must not match any of them.
#
#   error: REGEX
#	An error with message matching REGEX must be emitted for the test
#	to pass.  The PROG, objdump, nm and objcopy options have no
#	meaning and need not supplied if this is present.
#
#   warning: REGEX
#	Expect a linker warning matching REGEX.  It is an error to issue
#	both "error" and "warning".
#
# Each option may occur at most once unless otherwise mentioned.
#
# After the option lines come regexp lines.  `run_dump_test' calls
# `regexp_diff' to compare the output of the dumping tool against the
# regexps in FILE.d.  `regexp_diff' is defined later in this file; see
# further comments there.
#
