Re: What does this character mean in DLX's md file?


(define_insn ""
  [(set (match_operand:CCFP 0 "register_operand" "=z")
        (match_operator:SF 1 "signed_comparison_operator"
         [(match_operand:SF 2 "register_operand" "f")
          (match_operand:SF 3 "register_operand" "f")]))]
  ""
  "%C1f\\t%2,%3"
  [(set_attr "type" "fp")
   (set_attr "mode" "SF")])

This pattern outputs float compare instruction. "%C" in the output template is defined in dlx.c to
be one of eq, ne, gt, lt, le and neq. DLX's assembly code for float compare has the format of "*f
op1, op2", where * is to be substituted by eq, ne, gt, ....  I don't know the meaning of the
numeric character "1" between "%C" and "f" in the output template.

It means that operand 1 (the signed_comparison_operator) is passed to the dlx.c routine. Likewise for %2 and %3.


Attached is DLX's md file.

The whole content of the file is not relevant.
