This patch changes the default for -mcpu=future to turn on pc-relative addressing by default.
I have built each of the patches in turn on a little endian power8 system doing a bootstrap and make check. There were no regressions. Can I check this patch into the trunk once the previous patches are checked in? 2019-08-14 Michael Meissner <meiss...@linux.ibm.com> * config/rs6000/rs6000-cpus.def (ISA_FUTURE_MASKS_SERVER): Enable pc-relative support by default on 'future' systems.
