Suggested by Dale P. Smith.
* module/system/base/target.scm (cpu-endianness): Add cases for
"arm.*eb", "^aarch64.*be", and "aarch64". Change "arm" case to
"arm.*".
(triplet-pointer-size): Allow underscore as in 'aarch64_be'.
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test ("cross-compilation")["armeb-unknown-linux-gnu",
"aarch64-linux-gnu", "aarch64_be-linux-gnu"]: New tests.
Reported by Sylvain Beucler <beuc@beuc.net>.
* module/system/base/target.scm (cpu-endianness): Add case where CPU is
"arm".
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test ("cross-compilation")["arm-unknown-linux-androideabi"]:
New test.
* module/system/base/target.scm (triplet-pointer-size): Fix typo in the
x32 triplet name.
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test (native-os): New procedure.
(test-target): Use (native-word-size) only when both the CPU and OS
match.
* module/system/base/target.scm (triplet-pointer-size): Add case for
"^x64_64-.*-gnux32".
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test ("cross-compilation"):
["x86_64-unknown-linux-gnux32"]: New test.
* module/system/base/target.scm (cpu-word-size): Rename to...
(triplet-pointer-size): ... this. Update caller. Take a triplet as
the argument. Check the `triplet-os' part when checking for equality
with the host. Add support "mips64.*-gnuabi64".
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test ("cross-compilation")
[ "mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabi64"]: New test.
* module/system/base/target.scm (cpu-word-size): Consider MIPS64 to
default to n32 or o32.
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test ("cross-compilation")
["mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu"]: New test.
* module/system/base/target.scm (%target-endianness, %target-word-size):
New fluids.
(%native-word-size): New variable.
(with-target): Set these fluids.
(cpu-endianness, cpu-word-size, triplet-cpu, triplet-vendor,
triplet-os): New procedures.
(target-cpu, target-vendor, target-os): Use them.
(target-endianness, target-word-size): Refer to the corresponding
fluid.
* libguile/objcodes.c (target_endianness_var, target_word_size_var): New
global variables.
(NATIVE_ENDIANNESS): New macro.
(target_endianness, target_word_size, to_native_order): New functions.
(make_objcode_from_file): Use `scm_bytecode_to_native_objcode' instead
of `scm_bytecode_to_objcode'.
(bytecode_to_objcode): New function, based on `scm_bytecode_to_objcode',
with the addition of an `endianness' and `word_size' parameters.
(scm_bytecode_to_objcode): Use it.
(scm_bytecode_to_native_objcode): New function.
(scm_write_objcode): Use `target_word_size' and `target_endianness'.
Convert OBJCODE's len and meta-len to native byte order.
(scm_init_objcodes): Initialize `target_endianness_var' and
`target_word_size_var'.
* libguile/objcodes.h (scm_bytecode_to_native_objcode): New declaration.
* libguile/vm.c (really_make_boot_program): Use
`scm_bytecode_to_native_objcode' instead of `scm_bytecode_to_objcode'.
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test (%objcode-cookie-size): New
variable.
(test-target): New procedure.
("cross-compilation"): Add `test-target' calls and the "unknown
target" test.
* module/system/base/target.scm (validate-target): Accept any tuple with
at least 3 parts.
* test-suite/tests/asm-to-bytecode.test (test-triplet): New procedure.
("cross-compilation"): New test prefix.
* module/Makefile.am:
* module/system/base/target.scm: Add a minimal module to parameterize
the target system type and inspect properties on it like cpu, vendor,
os, endianness, and word size.
