Description Dmitry Selyutin 2023-11-05 10:53:10 GMT 
We don't have tests for binutils which check the most essential SVP64. At least assembly and disassembly as present in openpower-isa tests must be covered.
Comment 1 Dmitry Selyutin 2023-11-05 10:55:33 GMT 
Initially I was thinking to cross-check binutils/libopid/insndb. But I think I't be much better to migrate binutils to libopid, because we will never manage to keep in sync 3 subsystems.

true... but we still have to have the transition. a good workaround
would be to actually use binutils as an option to the unit tests,
there is now a "config" bugreport which makes this easy. bug #1174
