| Testsuite for the i860 version of the GNU assembler |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| This is a simple testsuite for the i860 assembler. It currently |
| consists mostly of testcases for checking that every instruction is |
| parsed correctly and that correct object code is generated (these |
| are called "blah.s"). The files called "blah-err.s" test for error |
| conditions. |
| |
| The suite includes testcases for the base i860XR instruction set as well |
| as the enhanced i860XP instructions and control registers. |
| |
| The expected results files were generated using the UNIX System V/i860 |
| Release 4 vendor assembler (/usr/ccs/bin/as -V reports version |
| "Standard C Development Environment (SCDE) 5.0 12/08/89"). This |
| way GAS/i860 is tested against a known good assembler. |
| |
| TODO: |
| - Relocation testing is basically non-existent. |
| - pst.d (pixel store) is the only instruction with no testcase. |
| - Some pseudo instructions need testcases (mov, all pfmov, etc.). |
| - More tests for dual instruction mode: check that dual mode has a |
| proper pair (FLOP/core) of instructions, and other error conditions. |
| - Most current testcases use the default AT&T/SVR4 syntax; a few simple |
| tests of the Intel syntax should be added to prevent bitrot (including |
| relocatable expression syntax, etc). Test file dual03.s uses Intel |
| syntax lightly (i.e., register names without '%' prefix). |

| Known testsuite failures: |
| - none. |
