Hi,
This is a resubmission of the patch to skip tests that make calls to
variables, which are incompatible with compressed MIPS ISAs (microMIPS
and MIPS16). As requested, I have added documentation for the new
effective target `mips_compressed` in `doc/sourcebuild.texi`.
The patch now includes:
- Skipping of affected tests for MIPS16/microMIPS.
- Addition of `check_effective_target_mips_compressed` in
`target-supports.exp`.
- Documentation of `mips_compressed` in `sourcebuild.texi`.
IIRC mips16 isn't really meant to be used standalone, so in the real
world this really isn't a problem, it's really an artifact of trying to
run the entire testsuite in mips16 mode? Or am I missing something.
Just want to make sure I understand the motivation here.
