Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] arm: vfp: Bounce undefined instructions in vectored mode
Date: Tue, 14 Oct 2014 06:48:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1413294539-22069-4-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1413294539-22069-1-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org>
From: Stepan Moskovchenko <stepanm@codeaurora.org>
Certain ARM CPU implementations (e.g. Cortex-A15) may not raise a
floating- point exception whenever deprecated short-vector VFP
instructions are executed. Instead these instructions are treated
as UNALLOCATED. Change the VFP exception handling code to emulate
short-vector instructions even if FPEXC exception bits are not
set.
