[fpc-devel] Some Opcodes missing in internal assembler for mips32r2

[Michael Ring]

Thank you Sergei, I will have a look at that code.

I have just finished inserting ugly .long 0xxxxxx statements in my code 
to hardcode the missing pieces, I am really glad you answered ;-) ;-)

I also found some statements that get translated wrong:

and     $a0,$a0,0

and     $a1,$a1,0

li      $t2,0

the statements are missing the last param in the generated assembler file:

pic32mx1xxfxxxb.s:87: Error: absolute expression required `li $t2,'
pic32mx1xxfxxxb.s:102: Error: absolute expression required `and $a0,$a0,'

I guess this needs to be fixed in mips/aasmcpu.pas
