Kaushik Phata 856ea05ccf This adds support for marking RL78 binaries as either supporting 32-bit
or 64-bit doubles.  It also makes the linker complain if the user attempts
to link together binaries with different sized doubles.

	* elf32-rl78.c (rl78_elf_merge_private_bfd_data): Complain if
	64-bit doubles objects mix with 32-bit doubles objects.
	(rl78_elf_print_private_bfd_data): Describe 64-bit doubles flag.

	* readelf.c (get_machine_flags): Handle RL78 64-bit doubles flag.

	* config/tc-rl78.c (enum options): Add OPTION_32BIT_DOUBLES
	and OPTION_64BIT_DOUBLES.
	(md_longopts): Add -m32bit-doubles and -m64bit-doubles.
	(md_parse_option): Parse -m32bit-doubles and -m64bit-doubles.
	(md_show_usage): Show all of the RL78 options.
	(rl78_float_cons): New static functions.
	(md_pseudo_table): Update handler for "double".

@cindex RL78 modifiers
@cindex syntax, RL78
The RL78 has three modifiers that adjust the relocations used by the
linker:
@table @code
@item %lo16()
When loading a 20-bit (or wider) address into registers, this modifier
selects the 16 least significant bits.
@smallexample
movw ax,#%lo16(_sym)
@end smallexample
@item %hi16()
When loading a 20-bit (or wider) address into registers, this modifier
selects the 16 most significant bits.
@smallexample
movw ax,#%hi16(_sym)
@end smallexample
@item %hi8()
When loading a 20-bit (or wider) address into registers, this modifier
selects the 8 bits that would go into CS or ES (i.e. bits 23..16).
@smallexample
mov es, #%hi8(_sym)
@end smallexample

@section Assembler Directives

@cindex RL78 assembler directives
In addition to the common directives, the RL78 adds these:
@table @code
@item .double
Output a constant in ``double'' format, which is either a 32-bit
or a 64-bit floating point value, depending upon the setting of the
@option{-m32bit-doubles}|@option{-m64bit-doubles} command line
option.
@item .bss
Select the BSS section.
@item .3byte
Output a constant value in a three byte format.
@item .int
@itemx .word
Output a constant value in a four byte format.

@subsection Special Characters
@cindex line comment character, RL78
@cindex RL78 line comment character
The presence of a @samp{;} appearing anywhere on a line indicates the
start of a comment that extends to the end of that line.
If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line then the whole
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line can also be a
logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).
@cindex line separator, RL78
@cindex statement separator, RL78
@cindex RL78 line separator
The @samp{|} character can be used to separate statements on the same
line.
