Re: ARM: lib1funcs.asm tidy up


Hi Richard,

: ! 	cmpLO	divisor, dividend
: ! 	movLO	divisor, divisor, lsl #4
: ! 	movLO	curbit,  curbit,  lsl #4
: ! 	bLO	Loop1
: 
: Yuck!!  Please don't use mixed-case mnemonics like this;

:-(  I rather liked them.  I felt that it made it clear that these
were condition codes and not part of the real instruction's mnemonic.

: the fact that they are recognized at all is a nasty side effect of
: the way that the ARM/gas parser handles the mnemonics.  Support for
: it would go away if we ever moved to having a complete hash table of
: the mnemonics. 

Oh well, in that case I will fix it.  I have checked in the obvious
patch.  The ChangeLog is:

2000-08-23  Nick Clifton  <nickc@redhat.com>

	* config/arm/lib1funcs.asm: Replace upper case condition codes
	with lower case versions.

Cheers
	Nick
