   2
   3         * Use one active frag and one obstack per frag chain:
   4         * frags.c (frags): Variable deleted.
   5         (frag_alloc): New function.
   6         (frag_grow, frag_more, frag_variant, frag_now_fix,
   7         frag_append_1_char): Refer to frchain_now->frch_obstack instead of
   8         frags variable.
   9         (frag_new): Ditto.  Verify that frch_last and frag_now match on
  10         entry and exit, and that old frag_now has non-zero type.  Replace
  11         "know" uses with "assert".  Use frag_alloc instead of mucking with
  12         obstack alignment.
  13         * frags.h (frags): Declaration deleted.
  14         * subsegs.h (struct frchain): Add new field frch_frag_now.
  15         * subsegs.c (frchains, dummy_frag, absolute_frchain): New static
  16         variables.
  17         (subsegs_begin): Initialize frchains obstack.  Under gcc, don't
  18         give it any stricter alignment than frchainS structures need.  Do
  19         not initialize frags obstack.  Set frag_now to point to
  20         dummy_obstack.  Initialize absolute_frchain.
  21         (subseg_set_rest): Save and restore frag_now in frch_frag_now
  22         field of frchainS.  Don't create new frags on section switch, and
  23         use frag_alloc when creating a new frag chain.  For absolute
  24         section, set frchain_now to absolute_frchain.  Verify that
  25         frch_last and frag_now match on entry and exit.  Initialize
  26         per-chain obstack, and under gcc, set required alignment to that
  27         needed by fragS structure.
  28         * write.c (chain_frchains_together_1): Verify fr_type is nonzero.
  29
  30         * stabs.c (get_stab_string_offset): Only copy input string if a
  31         fresh copy is needed, not if the section already exists.
  32         (s_stab_generic): Cache stab section name to bypass lookups, since
  33         usually it will match.  Could be made faster still by changing the
  34         memory allocation rules.
  35         (s_xstab): Cache section name to bypass repeated string
  36         allocation.
  37
  38         * frags.c (frag_new): Deleted register declarations.
  39
  40         * listing.c (frag_now): Don't declare.
  41
  42         * as.c (chunksize): New variable.
  43         (debug_memory): New variable.
  44         (main): If debug_memory is set, reduce chunksize and
  45         _bfd_chunksize.
  46         * as.h (chunksize): Declare it.
  47         * read.c (read_begin): Use it.
  48
  49         * config/tc-alpha.c (md_shortopts): Include 'g'.
  50         (md_parse_option): Ignore it.
  51
  52         * Makefile.in (distclean): Remove Makefile and config.status from
  53         testsuite directory.
  54         (clean-here): Don't delete testsuite.  Instead, delete only the
  55         files within it that would be generated by running tests.
  56
  57         * config/tc-hppa.c (hppa_elf_mark_end_of_function): Call
  58         frag_now_fix instead of accessing obstack info directly.
  59         * config/tc-arm.c (s_ltorg): Ditto.
  60         (md_assemble): Ditto.
  61
  62         * config/tc-i386.c (md_assemble): Call frag_grow instead of
  63         obstack_room.
  64
  65 Wed Oct 18 12:22:59 1995  Ken Raeburn  <raeburn@cygnus.com>
  66
  67         * stabs.c (aout_process_stab): Insert debug symbol into symbol
  68         chain after parsing value expression, if any, to avoid separating
  69         continued .stabs lines.
  70
  71 Mon Oct 16 10:56:41 1995  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@cygnus.com>
  72
  73         * config/tc-mips.c (mips_elf_pseudo_table): Remove.
  74         (mips_pop_insert): Don't call pop_insert on mips_elf_pseudo_table.
  75
  76 Mon Oct 16 07:07:37 1995  Michael Meissner  <meissner@wogglebug.tiac.net>
  77
  78         * config/tc-ppc.c (md_begin): Use new flags PPC_OPCODE_COMMON for
  79         -mcom support and PPC_OPCODE_ANY for -many.
  80         (md_parse_option): Ditto.
  81         (ppc_arch): Ditto.
  82         (md_begin): For duplicate instructions, print all duplicates
  83         before aborting.
  84
  85 Sun Oct 15 22:06:14 1995  Michael Meissner  <meissner@cygnus.com>
  86
  87         * config/tc-ppc.c (md_parse_option): Support for -mcom to turn on
  88         common mode operation.
  89         (md_show_usage): Add -mcom to usage message.
  90

  94         * expr.h (operatorT): Add O_symbol_rva.
  95         * read.c (cons_worker): Set O_symbol_rva when necessary.

 108         the fix_line field.
 109         * config/obj-coff.c (coff_n_line_nos): Rename from n_line_nos, and
 110         make non-static.  Change all users.

 140         despite its being commented out for now.
 141         * doc/c-ns32k.texi: New file.
 142
 143         * sb.c, macro.c: Include string.h.
 144
 145         * Makefile.in (comparison): Only check *.o; we don't care if

 147
 148         * config/tc-alpha.c (alpha_align): Only fill with a no-op pattern

 158
 159         * config/tc-ppc.c (parse_toc_entry): New function to parse [toc]
 160         qualifiers and detect errors if present.
 161         (md_assemble): Add call to parse_toc_entry. Also added some support

 172         * config/tc-m68k.c (isbyte): Accept all values from -65536 to
