OK, thanks. What you said sound reasonable to me. I shall send patch v3
if no any additiona reply for patch v2 within 3 days (2015-02-20).

And excuse me, I still want to know, is there a real world register as a
PC register for tile (e.g. just like 'rip' for x86_64) which can be used
by software programer? (is it in SPR?)

Thanks.
