Subject: [PATCH] gas/x86: .arch / -march= enhancements
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2022 14:52:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01f502ff-5b51-86d3-ed54-646df7d22037@suse.com> (raw)

The lack of being able to go back to certain known state has bothered
me for quite a while. As did the seemingly arbitrary set of ".no*"
options available to turn off certain features. Finally I did find
time to make an attempt at adding the missing functionality.

1: don't leak sub-architecture accumulated strings
2: de-duplicate sub-architecture strings accumulation
3: permit "default" with .arch
4: macro-ize cpu_arch[] entries
5: introduce fake processor type to mark sub-arch entries in cpu_arch[]
6: generalize disabling of sub-architectures
7: introduce a state stack for .arch
