Hi Renato,
Thanks for your comment. I was using the top-of-tree binutils when I was developing this patch. As the result, the behavior of `llvm-mc` should match with the latest `arm-linux-gnueabi-as` (or `arm-linux-gnueabihf-as`) in most cases. There is only one exception: the default Tag_CPU_name for iwmmxt/iwmmxt2 will be capitalized.
After reading your comments, I tried to compare the result with binutils 4.6 as well. I found that binutils 4.6 will emit (Tag_DIV_use, Not_Allowed) for many architectures, including armv7-a. However, I feel that this behavior is very confusing. IMO, we should not emit Tag_DIV_use.
These are the differences as far as I can tell. Do you have further comments? Thanks.
