Ah good point. Should be syntax errors. > Is one of these functions which just returns a constant > from no input bits still a "static int func(DisasContext *s, int x)" > taking a pointless input argument, or is it now a > "static int func(DisasContext *s)" ? I guess from the fact > this code doesn't change the way a call is output that it > is the former, but would the latter be cleaner ? Right on both counts. Because of how the loop in MultiField is set up, x will always be given 0. I'll see about cleaning this up. In the meantime, fyi, this is used for setting the S bit for thumb1 insns, where S=0 iff the insn is within an IT block. r~
