[PATCH 1/4] Add generic ARM instruction set condition code checks.

Leif Lindholm leif.lindholm at arm.com
Fri Dec 9 13:54:29 EST 2011


This patch breaks the ARM condition checking code out of nwfpe/fpopcode.{ch}
into a standalone file for opcode operations. It also modifies the code
somewhat for coding style adherence, and adds some temporary variables for
increased readability.
