The new options are:
+aes: Enables the AES instructions of Armv8-a,
enabled by default with +crypto.
+sha2: Enables the SHA1 and SHA2 instructions of Armv8-a,
enabled by default with +crypto.
These options have been turned on by default when +crypto
is used, as such no breakage is expected.
The reason for the split is because with the introduction of Armv8.4-a
the implementation of AES has explicitly been made independent of the
implementation of the other crypto extensions. Backporting the split does
not break any of the previous requirements and so is safe to do.

binutils has lacked proper pluralization of output messages for a long
time, for example, readelf will display information about a section
that "contains 1 entries" or "There are 1 section headers". Fixing
this properly requires us to use ngettext, because other languages
have different rules to English.
This patch defines macros for ngettext and friends to handle builds
with --disable-nls, and tidies the existing nls support. I've
redefined gettext rather than just defining "_" as dgettext in bfd and
opcodes in case someone wants to use gettext there (which might
conceivably happen with generated code).

FT32B is a new FT32 family member. It has a code
compression scheme, which requires the use of linker
relaxations. The change is quite large, so submission

Part 1 adds a 15-bit instruction field, and CPU-specific functions for
the code compression that are used in binutils and GDB.

From PR 22123:
The common opcodes of emac and mac seem to be only implemented for mac.
To reproduce:
echo "macw %d3l,%a0l" > /tmp/dummy.S
m68k-unknown-elf-as -m5208 /tmp/dummy.S
Outputs something like:
/tmp/dummy.S: Assembler messages:
/tmp/dummy.S:1: Error: operands mismatch -- statement `macw %d3l,%a0l' ignored
This behavior occurs only if the CPU supports only emac but not explicitly mac (but emac is a superset of mac).
Hi,
While compiling GDB using a mingw compiler from Fedora 26:
../gdb/configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --target=x86_64-w64-mingw32 \
--disable-binutils --disable-ld --disable-gold --disable-gas --disable-sim \
--disable-gprof --enable-targets=all
I stumbled upon a simple occurrence of -Werror=maybe-uninitialized:
../../gdb/opcodes/aarch64-opc.c: In function 'expand_fp_imm':
../../gdb/opcodes/aarch64-opc.c:2880:10: error: 'imm' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
return imm;
^~~
It is the compiler's fault, because this function always assigns to
'imm' if the necessary conditions are met, and it calls "assert (0)"
otherwise, but I thought it'd be clearer to have 'imm' explicitly set
to zero anyway.

Since the NOTRACK prefix is no longer required to be the last prefix
before the REX prefix, restriction on the NOTRACK prefix position is

it before other prefixes. Disassembler displays prefixes in the order
they appear.

According to ARMv8-A architecture manual, REG_SP is allowed in CRC32
instructions in Thumb mode. It is REG_PC that will cause unpredictable
behaviours on both ARM and Thumb.

address range is kernel space for PowerPC. Now let's try to disassemble
do_sys_open() using /proc/kcore.
$ cat /proc/kallsyms | grep -A1 -w do_sys_open
c00000000036c000 T do_sys_open
c00000000036c2d0 T SyS_open
Before patch:
$ objdump -d --start-address=0xc00000000036c000 --stop-address=0xc00000000036c2d0 /proc/kcore
/proc/kcore: file format elf64-powerpcle
Disassembly of section load2:
c00000000036c000 <load2+0x36c000>:
c00000000036c000: Address 0xc00000000036c000 is out of bounds.
Fix this by changing type of 'buffer_length' from unsigned int to
size_t. After patch:
$ objdump -d --start-address=0xc00000000036c000 --stop-address=0xc00000000036c2d0 /proc/kcore
/proc/kcore: file format elf64-powerpcle
Disassembly of section load2:
c00000000036c000 <load2+0x36c000>:
c00000000036c000: fc 00 4c 3c addis r2,r12,252
c00000000036c004: 00 53 42 38 addi r2,r2,21248
c00000000036c008: a6 02 08 7c mflr r0
include/
* dis-asm.h (struct disassemble_info): Change type of buffer_length
field to size_t.
opcodes/
* dis-buf.c (buffer_read_memory): Change type of end_addr_offset,
max_addr_offset and octets variables to size_t.
