I still dislike the idea of importing so much code in particular for something that is incomplete: as far as I can see, AdvSIMD instructions are not supported. The very least that should be done would be to add a file that gives a rough status of what is and what is not implemented. And what if the vixl authors never implement AdvSIMD? This is the most difficult part of Aarch64 to disassemble (integer and FP instructions are really easy to disassemble). Will someone add these and will vixl authors accept the changes or will we then start diverging from vixl implementation? Is vixl even still supported or in development (no commit for 6 months)? We need an Aarch64 disassembler, but IMHO these questions should be answered before proceeding.
