Thanks the response David , but I was looking for a more inclusive list. For
example some assembler I have written for the IBM PPC 405 has icbst, mtdcr
and quite a few other 4xx only operations. Obviously the as has this
information when passed 'mcpu=405'. I was just hoping I could find a single
source of documentation containing the superset of all IBM
(POWER(2),4xx,6xx,7xx(x), PPC64) and Motorola (8xx(x), 7xx, G3/G4). Also
book E based processors are in development which will soon only complicate
this matter more for anyone who is not a PPC assembler expert.
Would be nice if http://www.gnu.org/manual/gas/html_mono/as.html was updated
to include a PPC section. It currently is dated Jan '94.
