From: Michael Clark Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2017 04:08:46 +0000 (+1200) Subject: RISC-V: Change CALL macro to use ra as the temporary address register X-Git-Tag: binutils-2_29~606 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=43e379d74c994fe431368b5f25f778bf601a2981;p=external%2Fbinutils.git RISC-V: Change CALL macro to use ra as the temporary address register e.g. 1: auipc ra, %pcrel_hi(symbol) jalr ra, %pcrel_lo(1b)(ra) The use of ra instead of t1 for address construction provides an opportunity for a microarchitecture to elide the write of the destination address, and instead read the target address as an immediate spread across the fused auipc+jalr pair. The link register ra in the jalr overwrites the target address temporary. 2017-05-01 Michael Clark * riscv-opc.c (riscv_opcodes) : Use RA not T1 as a temporary register. --- diff --git a/opcodes/ChangeLog b/opcodes/ChangeLog index dcde282..355a162 100644 --- a/opcodes/ChangeLog +++ b/opcodes/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ +2017-05-01 Michael Clark + + * riscv-opc.c (riscv_opcodes) : Use RA not T1 as a temporary + register. + 2017-05-02 Maciej W.
