Subject: [PATCH 0/3] gas/x86: displacement handling adjustments
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2022 14:06:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0806b8f1-b463-41e8-1980-b511bdb451ff@suse.com> (raw)
The primary goal here is the last patch, increasing the headroom
we have in the operand type structure for future additions, while
at the same time also reducing code size a little. When initially
validating the concept as viable, I stumbled across two issues
which the first two patches deal with. Unfortunately this leads
to a little back and forth in lex_got()'s internal lookup table
(and i386-gen's underlying macros); This would be avoidable only
if folding the last two patches, which I don't think is desirable.
1: x86-64: improve handling of branches to absolute addresses
2: x86: restore masking of displacement kinds
3: x86: fold Disp32S and Disp32
