Note 1: using an older AS might fail anyway if the amount of sections is too high (like in packages\odata\src\sharepoint.pp)
Note 2: it might be an idea to keep track of the created sections in the asmlists and only enable the option if *really* necessary (like with the internal COFF output generator), though this might lead to false positives due to multiple sections with the same name (since I'd prefer to use the KISS principle only a counter would be used)

* It is now only used to select size of vector instructions (i.e. 128 or 256 bits)
* Scalar instructions reverted to use attsufINT suffix (selecting between 32 or 64 bits).
* Additionally, vcvtsi2sd and vcvtsi2ss with rm64 operand are x86_64 only.

o "Intel instruction set reference" states that source operand can be XMM register or memory, so GAS behavior
is correct. If any other assembler expects an YMM register, it must be fixed elsewhere.
o x86ins.dat does not allow YMM register as source operand for VCVTDQ2PD, and instructions are checked for validity
before writing them out, therefore this code was simply never executed.

for all non-ppc(32/64) Darwin platforms
o pass the macosx-version-min/iphoneos-version-min to clang as an assembler,
so that it properly sets this information starting with Xcode 7 (solves
errors when targeting the iOS simulator, and warnings about object files
being compiled for a different OS X version when targeting (Mac) OS X)
o the old assembler is still selectable via -Aas-darwin (required with
Xcode 3.1.x and older)
o since the first Xcode version that shipped with Clang is Xcode 3.2, which
is available for Mac OS X 10.6, most users should not encounter any issues
with the new default (in fact, it fixes some tests for x86 because Clang
supports some instructions that "as" doesn't). Clang does not support
Stabs however, so -gs does require the use of -Aas-darwin

GNU as from binutils for Darwin, and Apple's "as" is based on an old
version of GNU as)
o this will not cause any backward compatibility problems, as the
previous identifier for as_darwin was "AS-Darwin" and the compiler
compared the uppercase value of the -A parameter to the identifier,
so it was not explicitly selectable earlier. The new name is "AS",
so it is explicitly selectable via -Aas like on other platforms.

that we can use assembler writers with different conventions from the
currently set target_asm (e.g. an x86 assembler writer for inline assembly
in LLVM IR)
git-svn-id: trunk@31628 -
of the AVR-specific ifdef'ed variant
o since the only special character we use in mangled names on all platforms
is $, added a new field to tasminfo called "dollarsign" that holds the
character $'s should be replaced with (if it doesn't have to be replaced,
leave it at $)
git-svn-id: trunk@20801 -
* Don't generate rex.w for "CALL|JMP|LCALL|LJMP regmem", they are 64-bit by default.
* LCALL,LJMP flagged as calljump instructions.
* LCALL,LJMP encode only far jumps and don't accept register operands.
* GAS writer: fixed writing rip-relative operands of calljump instructions.
+ test.
git-svn-id: trunk@19413 -
* eliminate warnings in compiler (i386 & i368->x86_64) and minor refactorings
- comment out unused vars and types
- comment out unneeded comparisons (Longword <=> 0)
- suppress some "comparison always true|false" warnings
- tweak visiblity sections
git-svn-id: trunk@19385 -
later: the same as i386/darwin, except
a) uses the non-fragile Objective-C ABI/runtime
b) does not require stubs for direct calls/jumps (not required for
i386/darwin under 10.6 and later either, but still generated
there for backwards compatibility)
c) only the same packages are enabled as for ARM/Darwin
d) MacOSAll is compiled specifically for the iPhoneSimulator SDK
This target also defines the symbol "darwin" apart from the target
name "iphonesim" for source code compatibility reasons.

the opposite meaning, af_stabs_use_function_absolute_addresses), because it
is different on Darwin for the internal and external assembler)
git-svn-id: trunk@14342 -
* the objc unit links against the Foundation instead of against the Cocoa
framework, and inludes an interface to either the fragile or non-fragile
obj-c run time depending on the target platform
+ support for the non-fragile Objective-C runtime/ABI, as used on Mac OS X
for ARM (iPhone) 64 bit (PowerPC/64, x86_64) -- all these targets now
are now also supported for the objectivec1 modeswitch
+ support for private_extern symbol bindings, required for the above
* mark objcclasses that are declared in the implementation section of a
unit as "hidden" (not sure what the effect is, since the Objective-C
runtime does not seem to do anything with this flag)
* enabled all obj-c tests for the newly supported platforms
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13763 -
a) it's unnecessary
b) it's slower than "direct" RIP-relative accessing
c) it's not supported on darwin/x86_64 in certain cases
* never use absolute addressing on darwin/x86_64 (like on win64)
* when not generating PIC, make sure that a_loadaddr_ref_reg on x86_64
also uses RIP-relative addressing for darwin/x86_64 and win64
git-svn-id: trunk@13760 -
to be made pic-safe (mainly accesses to the global default8087cw)
* At the same time also made the non-pic code abi-compliant (access
external data via indirect symbol pointers etc)
Darwin/i386 also puts the got into a virtual register (like
Darwin/ppc), a.o. because the register allocator fails to colour
a routine in aasmcpu.pas if we take away ebx from it.
