Nick Clifton - Re: [AArch64] Let aliased instructions be their preferred form.
This is the mail archive of the binutils@sourceware.org mailing list for the binutils project.
I don't there's any test that could be done using the existing instructions. The aliasing change is needed for the REV64 alias of the REV instruction (https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2015-11/msg00222.html) patch. That includes tests that check that the instruction REV is preferred over its aliases so are also a test of this patch (which should probably have been sent as part of the BFM, REV patch set).
