Re: [RFA] H8/300sx port for gas, sim, and opcodes (1/5)


Hi Michael,

In the future please do not do this.  Please submit the diffs
instead.  You can zip/compress/gzip/bzip2 them if necessary, but in
order to check these patches I had to save out each file, run diff by
hand and then check the output to see what was happening.

Also - was it really necessary to make such sweeping changes, just in
order to make a new architecture variant ?  I realise that you
probably were not the one who made all of these changes, but they do
seem quite extensive and an explanation of why they were necessary
would have been nice.

Approved - please apply.

Note - please also add an entry in the gas/NEWS file mentioning the
support for this new architecture.

Will there be a further contribution with an extension to the gas
testsuite for cover the new instructions and addressing modes
supported by the h8300sx ?

Cheers
