The libs/sysdeps/linux/m68k/bits/byteswap.h has a code block with the
assembler instructions not available to MCF 5307 processor. The compiler
gives this error:
main.s: Assembler messages:
main.s:1093: Error: invalid instruction for this architecture; needs 68000
or higher -- statement `ror.w #8,%d0' ignored
main.s:1093: Error: invalid instruction for this architecture; needs 68000
or higher -- statement `ror.w #8,%d0' ignored
Does it make sense to kill the conditional use of assembler instructions?
I couldn't find the code of the __builtin_constant_p(x) function which
comes into play besides the tests of the __GNUC__ symbol.
The only relevant bit shifting instruction I was able to find in the
Coldfire Programming Manual was "asr.l" with a long operand only. Is there
any bit rotating instruction in Coldfire processors?
