Hi,
As discussed in https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-09/msg01334.html
The construct
(clobber (match_scratch 0 "r"))
is invalid - operand 0 must be marked either write or read/write.
Likewise
(match_* 0 "&r")
is invalid, marking an operand earlyclobber does not remove the need to
also mark it write or read/write.
This patch adds checking for these two error conditions to the generator
programs and documents the restriction.
Bootstrapped on x86, ARM and AArch64 with no new issues.
Ok?
Thanks,
James

nomenclature rather than "input/output".

Isn't "seen_input" poorly named here? ISTM what we're checking for is
if we've seen an operand that will be written to.
Doesn't it make sense to use read/write nomenclature in the comments and
variable names too?
So with those nits fixed, this patch is OK.
