Hi all, A user has requested that we support the -mtp= option in aarch64 GCC for changing the TPIDR register to read for TLS accesses. I'm not a big fan of the option name, but we already support it in the arm port and Clang supports it for AArch64 already [1], where it accepts the 'el0', 'el1', 'el2', 'el3' values.
This patch implements the same functionality in GCC. Bootstrapped and tested on aarch64-none-linux-gnu. Confirmed with godbolt that the sequences and options are the same as what Clang accepts/generates. Pushing to trunk. Thanks, Kyrill [1] https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangCommandLineReference.html#cmdoption-clang-mtp gcc/ChangeLog: PR target/108779 * config/aarch64/aarch64-opts.h (enum aarch64_tp_reg): Define. * config/aarch64/aarch64-protos.h (aarch64_output_load_tp): Define prototype. * config/aarch64/aarch64.cc (aarch64_tpidr_register): Declare.
