Maciej W. Rozycki 0674ee5dad MIPS16: Handle non-extensible instructions correctly
Identify non-extensible instructions in the MIPS16 opcode table and
disallow their use with the `.e' instruction size suffix in assembly and
do not interpret any EXTEND prefix present as a part of the instruction
in disassembly.

According to all versions of the MIPS16 ASE specifications the following
instructions encodings are not extensible [1][2][3][4][5][6]: I8/MOV32R,
I8/MOVR32, all RRR minor opcodes, all RR minor opcodes except from DSRA
and DSRL, and EXTEND itself, and as from revision 2.50 of the MIPS16e
ASE specifications it has been further clarified what was previously
implied, that non-extesiable instructions when preceded with an EXTEND
prefix must cause a Reserved Instruction exception [3][5].

Therefore in the presence of an EXTEND prefix none of these instructions
are supposed to be handled as extended instructions and supporting these
forms in disassembly causes confusion, and in the case of the RRR major
opcode it also clashes with the ASMACRO encoding.

README

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
