Subject: [V2 PATCH 0/3] powerpc: Fix Little Endian Bugs in Single Step Code
Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 13:38:55 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383244738-5986-1-git-send-email-tommusta@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Tom Musta <tommusta@gmail.com>
This patch series addresses bugs in the PowerPC single-step emulation
code (arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c) pertaining to Little Endian.
The existing code has a chicken switch for little endian. The first
patch softens the restriction so that only cross-endian modes are not
supported.
There is a general problem with unaligned little endian loads and stores.
This is addressed by the second patch.
Finally, there is a problem with unaligned single precision floating point
loads and stores which is addressed by the third patch.
V2: fixed bug in MSR[LE] check identified by Andreas Schwab and
Geert Uytterhoeven.
Tom Musta (3):
powerpc: Enable emulate_step In Little Endian Mode
powerpc: Fix Unaligned Fixed Point Loads and Stores
powerpc: Fix Unaligned LE Floating Point Loads and Stores
