In the future please do not do this. Please submit the diffs instead. You can zip/compress/gzip/bzip2 them if necessary, but in order to check these patches I had to save out each file, run diff by hand and then check the output to see what was happening. Also - was it really necessary to make such sweeping changes, just in order to make a new architecture variant ? I realise that you probably were not the one who made all of these changes, but they do seem quite extensive and an explanation of why they were necessary would have been nice. > 2003-05-14 Michael Snyder > and Bernd Schmidt > and Alexandre Oliva > * opcode/h8300.h: Add h8300sx insns, addressing modes, etc. Approved - please apply. Note - please also add an entry in the gas/NEWS file mentioning the support for this new architecture. Will there be a further contribution with an extension to the gas testsuite for cover the new instructions and addressing modes supported by the h8300sx ? Cheers Nick
