Subject: [PATCH] Emulate more instructions in software
Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2007 11:26:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070418055638.GA16650@in.ibm.com> (raw)

Emulate a few more instructions in software - especially useful during
singlestepping (xmon/kprobes).

Instructions emulated with this patch are mfcr/mtcr rX, mfxer/mtxer rX,
mflr/mtlr rX, mfctr/mtctr rX and mr rA,rB.
