The instruction database (machine-generation) for binutils needs continuation particularly for CR and Branch operations. The task is a continuation of bug #976. -- * DONE: bug #1068 Adding instructions from ls012 not currently implemented in binutils. * WIP: bug #1079 make LD/ST-with-update EXTRA3 * WIP: bug #1083 update to DD FFirst Mode binutils PowerDecoder * DONE: bug #1094 insndb instruction database visitor-walker is needed
Luke, could you please elaborate a bit on the scope of this task? It's overlaps somewhat with 976, and I'm unsure where to draw the border line.
