2SparcV8 backend skeleton
3------------------------
4
5This directory houses a 32-bit SPARC V8 backend employing an expander-based
6instruction selector.  It is not yet functionally complete.  Watch
7this space for more news coming soon!

9Current expected test failures
10------------------------------

12All SingleSource/Benchmarks tests are expected to pass.  Currently, all
13C++ tests and all tests involving varargs intrinsics (use of
14va_start/va_end) are expected to fail.  Here are the known SingleSource
15failures:

32To-do
33-----
34
35* support setcc on longs
36* support basic binary operations on longs
37  - use libc procedures instead of open-coding for:
38    __div64 __mul64 __rem64 __udiv64 __umul64 __urem64
39* support casting 64-bit integers to FP types
40* support varargs intrinsics (va_start et al.)
