Test asm file containing every MIPS16 instruction
It would appear that LLVM does not recognize many MIPS16 instructions.
The attached assembly file is a test I made that contains, as far as I can
tell, every MIPS16 instruction. I can build it with GCC 9.3 without any issues
using the following command on Ubuntu 20.04 64-bit (Windows 10 WSL).
mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc -march=mips32r2 -mips16 <source> -o <obj file>
However, trying to build it with Clang or LLVM-MC fails with many "instruction
requires a CPU feature not currently enabled" or "invalid operand for
instruction" errors. I have not yet verified that the instructions that do not
cause errors are correctly encoded, but a cursory look suggests that they are
not (they might be using the MIPS32 forms instead).
llvm-mc -arch=mipsel -mcpu=mips32r2 -mattr=+mips16 -show-encoding
-show-inst <source>
--OR--
clang -target mipsel-linux-gnu-musl -march=mips32r2 -mips16 -c <source> -o
<obj file>
I cloned and built my version of LLVM and Clang on 27 July, 2021; however, I
believe this issue has been present for a long time. It is present on LLVM 10
that is available on Ubuntu 20.04.</pre>
