Description Dmitry Selyutin 2022-10-14 18:14:10 BST 
Besides introducing prefixed instructions, SVP64 extensions also introduce many word instructions. Some simply extend vanilla PPC with the new functionality and can be used even outside of SVP64 extensions (for example, a new set of math functions). Others manipulate on SVP64 context and manipulate control flow. The support for all these instructions must also be present in binutils.

Changed the title so that it includes anything else we're missing for now (not only av.mdwn).
Comment 4 Dmitry Selyutin 2022-11-06 11:02:49 GMT 
Kind reminder on MoU.
