[off topic] imaginary PowerPC instructions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

After looking at some -S powerpc assembly I started wondering:

Should the powerpc have had:

bcrr[l]   branch register relative
bcra[l]   branch register absolute (like bcctr only not requiring mtctr)?

Anyone know off the top of their head if powerx (x>4; 4 ~= 970) has
something similar?

Off the top of your head can anyone think of any other compiler
friendly instructions that would have been nice?

Thanks! (and sorry for the noise).
