Subject: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc: sstep: Fix store and update instructions
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2020 11:11:39 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201119054139.244083-2-sandipan@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201119054139.244083-1-sandipan@linux.ibm.com>

The Power ISA says that the fixed-point store and update
instructions must not use R0 for the base address (RA).
In this case, the instruction is invalid. This applies
to the following instructions.
  * Store Byte with Update (stbu)
  * Store Byte with Update Indexed (stbux)
  * Store Halfword with Update (sthu)
  * Store Halfword with Update Indexed (sthux)
  * Store Word with Update (stwu)
  * Store Word with Update Indexed (stwux)
  * Store Doubleword with Update (stdu)
  * Store Doubleword with Update Indexed (stdux)

To remove any inconsistencies, this adds an additional check
for the aforementioned instructions to make sure that they
are treated as unknown by the emulation infrastructure when
RA = 0. The kernel will then fallback to executing the
instruction on hardware.
