            Bug ID: 28241
           Summary: crosscompilation of the kernel for MIPS fails with
                    binutils-2_37
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.37
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: sudipm.mukherjee at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

I reported this initially in gcc bugzilla thinking it to be a bug with
the gcc update. (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=101946)
but it was actually caused by updating to binutils-2_37 from
binutils-2_36_1.

To give more context, the kernel build for mips
"decstation_r4k_defconfig" fails with the error:

arch/mips/dec/prom/locore.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/dec/prom/locore.S:29: Error: opcode not supported on this
processor: r4600 (mips3) `rfe'

Both the binutils version has similar configuration:
--target=mips-linux' '--prefix=/src/local' '--enable-64-bit-bfd'
'--disable-nls' '--disable-werror' '--disable-gdb'
'target_alias=mips-linux

Also sent this to "bug-binutils@gnu.org" as the README was saying about sending
reports to that list.
