<p>This release has seen major new work on just about every aspect of the MIPS
backend. Some of the major new features include:</p>
New features and major changes in the MIPS target include:</p>
<ul>
<li>....</li>
<li>MIPS32 little-endian direct object code emission is functional.</li>
<li>MIPS64 little-endian code generation is largely functional for N64 ABI in assembly printing mode with the exception of handling of long double (f128) type.</li>
<li>Support for new instructions has been added, which includes swap-bytes
instructions (WSBH and DSBH), floating point multiply-add/subtract and
negative multiply-add/subtract instructions, and floating
point load/store instructions with reg+reg addressing (LWXC1, etc.)</li>
<li>Various fixes to improve performance have been implemented.</li>
<li>Post-RA scheduling is now enabled at -O3.</li>
<li>Support for soft-float code generation has been added.</li>
</ul>
