Hi,
Thank you for your comments. I edited my patch accordingly. As for some of your
doubts:
- REX is the opcode prefix to access 64-bit register extensions introduced in
IA-32e mode.
- EVEX is the encoding prefix which applies to SIMD operating instructions
operating on XMM, YMM and ZMM registers. It was introduced with AVX-512
instructions.
- "number factor of four" that means that sources start in a multiple of 4
boundary. This is used for some of instructions.
Also I'd like to add that this whole patch is strictly based on docstring parts
of constraints that are present in config/i386/constraints.md but not in
documentation (md.texi file). There is no new (new as in nonexistent in code)
content.
I'm also adding Kirill Yukhin to CC, because I believe he is the correct person
that can catch any technical errors if any has slipped-in.
The grammar/markup/etc are OK now, but I can't comment on technical
correctness of the information.
