Subject: [patch, MIPS] Update -mvirt option description
Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2017 20:25:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6D39441BF12EF246A7ABCE6654B0235380BE22A2@HHMAIL01.hh.imgtec.org> (raw)

Hi Catherine,

I'm following up on PR target/80057 to update the description of -mvirt.

I agree with Roland that the description is inconsistent and should not
state 'application specific' as none of the other ASE options include
it. Instead I suggest we put the shortened form of (VZ) in like (XPA)
is shown for -mxpa. The short form of virtualization ASE is usually VZ
not VIRT which has always irritated me about this option name but that
is history.

What do you think?

gcc/
	PR target/80057
	* config/mips/mips.opt (-mvirt): Update description.

Thanks,
Matthew
