Maciej W. Rozycki 602b88e3ab MIPS16/GAS: Improve non-constant operand error diagnostics
Improve operand error diagnostics for non-constant expressions used for
a 16-bit immediate, making the message more descriptive and indicating
the offending operand, e.g.:

foo.s:1: Error: invalid operands `lui $2,foo-bar'

will show as:

foo.s:1: Error: operand 2 must be constant `lui $2,foo-bar'

This case does not currently trigger however, for two reasons.

First, for regular MIPS and microMIPS assembly in the case of no match
caused by `match_int_operand' here, the function is always called again
from `mips_ip' via `match_insns', `match_insn' and then `match_operand'
for the same opcode table's entry with `lax_match' set to TRUE, in which
case the attempt to match succeeds and no error is issued.

Second, in the case of MIPS16 assembly no call to `match_int_operand' is
made at all for 16-bit immediates, because such immediates are currently
only matched with extensible instructions, and these are handled in
`match_mips16_insn' via `match_expression' directly rather than via
`match_operand'.

This will change for MIPS16 code with MIPS16e2 support introduced, where
non-extensible instructions accepting 16-bit immediates will be added,
so make the case work well right from the start.

	* config/tc-mips.c (match_int_operand): Call
	`match_not_constant' before returning failure for a non-constant
	16-bit immediate conditionally allowed.

		   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.
