In fsys call, pUStk is never equal to thread.on_ustack. Here is the code in
fsys_bubble_down() in fsys.S.
....
st1 [r16]=r0 // M2|3 clear current->thread.on_ustack flag
....
cmp.ne pKStk,pUStk=r0,r0 // A set pKStk <- 0, pUStk <- 1
....
The code shows that thread.on_ustack=0 and pUStk=1 during fsys setup phase. The
two should be equal in other cases than fsys. Seems the two similar names cause
confusion.
Thanks.
