Ah, hadn't realised that the original version had no EXTEND instruction. Which TinyRISC iteration was that? The LR4102 had it AFAIK. FWIW GCC and binutils always assume that EXTEND is available and just make a distinction between "original MIPS16" (which sounds like it might not be as original as I'd thought) and "MIPS16e". The VR4121 and VR4131 were also in the "original MIPS16" category (no compact jumps, SAVE/RESTORE, etc.). But they also had no FPU. > These stubs are I believe not really covered in our testing, because they > require a mixed standard-MIPS/MIPS16 environment. What's the barrier to testing a mixed environment? The normal *-linux-gnu configurations have no MIPS16 multilibs, so you should be able to test it on a plain mips-linux-gnu configuration using --target_flags unix/-mips16. FWIW I've been using the mips64-linux-gnu equivalent (--target_flags unix/-mabi=32/-mips16) without problems. Or if you don't want to test on GNU/Linux, you should be able to use something like mips64-elf configured with whichever --with-arch= you like (and an appropriate simulator). Long time since I tried that though. I prefer testing on GNU/Linux because it also covers libgcc.so symbol visibility and has better libgfortran support. > libgcc/ > * config/mips/mips16.S (DELAYf): Alias to DELAYt for the MIPS IV > ISA and up. OK, thanks, but please do run it through the testsuite first. Richard
