Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/3] signal: Add FPE_FLTUNK si_code for undiagnosable fp exceptions
Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2018 18:50:41 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1517338243-9749-2-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1517338243-9749-1-git-send-email-Dave.Martin-5wv7dgnIgG8@public.gmane.org>
Some architectures cannot always report accurately what kind of
floating-point exception triggered a floating-point exception trap.
This can occur with fp exceptions occuring on lanes in a vector
instruction on arm64 for example.
Rather than have every architecture come up with its own way of
descrbing such a condition, this patch adds a common FPE_FLTUNK do
report that an fp exception caused a trap but we cannot be certain
which kind of fp exception it was.
