Re: [patch] Arm SVC instruction


Hi Paul,

As part of their unified assembly language Arm changed the name of the SWI instruction to SVC (Supervisor Call). It's exactly the same instruction, just with a new name.

In which case shouldn't the disassembler default to using the SVC mnemonic rather than the SWI mnemonic ?


2006-01-27  Paul Brook  <paul@codesourcery.com>
gas/
	* config/tc-arm.c (insns): Add "svc".
gas/testsuite/
	* gas/arm/svc.d: New test.
	* gas/arm/svc.s: New test.

Approved - please apply - but you may want to update opcodes/arm-dis.c.


Cheers
  Nick
