There looks like a copy & paste error in this function, and caused PR
target/20666.

+convert_bfc_to_bfm (aarch64_inst *inst)
+{
+  int64_t lsb, width;
+
+  /* Insert XZR.  */
+  copy_operand_info (inst, 3, 2);
+  copy_operand_info (inst, 2, 1);
+  copy_operand_info (inst, 2, 0);
                               ^~~~~~~ should be "0".
Why 0? That makes this particular copy_operand_info() invocation
a no-op afaict. Aiui you mean 1 here instead.
    I mean 0 there.  as  "BFC Xd, lsb, width" is the simplified form of
"BFI Xd, XZR, lsb, width".

    Operands 1 is forced to XZR by the following code:
        inst->operands[1].reg.regno = 0x1f;
No, that only changes the register number, not the actual operand
type (which is still an immediate). The  copy_operand_info() with 1
as the second argument would clone operand 0 (which already is a
register) and then update the register number. Only that will
guarantee a full fledged register operand (in case any other entity
cares to look at it).
Hmm.. The types update might be fine, as there will be a aarch64_replace_opcode call for all such opcode conversion, but the qualifier is not handled so there might be hiding issues.

Do you mind sending a patch for this?

Thanks.

Jiong
