This patch will allow me to group the 7 patches I have for GCC 10 to test the
various -mcpu=future features.
There are 7 patches in this patch set:
Patch #1: Add target support for -mpcrel and -mprefixed.
Patch #2: Test that PLI/PADDI is generated to load or add large constants.
Patch #3: Add a test to make sure a prefixed load/store is generated in the
case where an offset is invalid for a DS/DQ memory instruction.
Patch #4: Add a test to make sure we do not generate the invalid prefixed
load/store instruction with update.
Patch #5: Add tests to insure prefixed loads or stores are generated when the
offset is a numeric value larger than 16 bits.
Patch #6: Add tests to insure that the PC-relative instructions are generated
to access static data items.
Patch #7: Add a test to check that we generate appropriate code when stack
checking is on and we have a large stack frame.
Versions of all of these patches have been submitted before, but some of them
neeed the -mpcrel support to be enabled before the test would succeed. All of
these patches run on a little endian power8 computer running Linux.
