Non-comprehensive list of changes in this release ================================================= +Changes to the MIPS Target +-------------------------- + +* A large number of bugs have been fixed for big-endian Mips targets using the + N32 and N64 ABI's. Please note that some of these bugs will still affect + LLVM-IR generated by LLVM 3.5 since correct code generation depends on + appropriate usage of the ``inreg``, ``signext``, and ``zeroext`` attributes + on all function arguments and returns. + +* The registers used to return a structure containing a single 128-bit floating + point member on the N32/N64 ABI's have been changed from those specified by + the ABI documentation to match those used by GCC. The documentation specifies + that ``$f0`` and ``$f2`` should be used but GCC has used ``$f0`` and ``$f1`` + for many years. + +* Returning a zero-byte struct no longer causes incorrect code generation when + using the O32 ABI. + +* The exception personality has been changed for 64-bit Mips targets to + eliminate warnings about relocations in a read-only section. + +* Incorrect usage of odd-numbered single-precision floating point registers + has been fixed when the fastcc calling convention is used with 64-bit FPU's + and -mno-odd-spreg. + +* For inline assembly, the 'z' print-modifier print modifier can now be used on + non-immediate values. + +* Attempting to disassemble l[wd]c[23], s[wd]c[23], cache, and pref no longer + triggers an assertion. + +Non-comprehensive list of changes in 3.5 +======================================== + * All backends have been changed to use the MC asm printer and support for the non MC one has been removed.
