MIPS: Emulate the new MIPS R6 B{L,G}Ε{Z,}{AL,}C instructions
MIPS R6 added the following four instructions which share the BLEZ and BLEZL opcodes: BLEZALC: Compact branch-and-link if GPR rt is <= to zero BGEZALC: Compact branch-and-link if GPR rt is >= to zero BLEZC : Compact branch if GPR rt is <= to zero BGEZC : Compact branch if GPR rt is >= to zero BGEC : Compact branch if GPR rs is less than or equal to GPR rt BGEUC : Similar to BGEC but unsigned.
