Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] target-arm/translate.c: fix movs pc, lr exception return on ARMv7
Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2016 16:13:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161014151336.31418-1-alex.bennee@linaro.org> (raw)
This was broken by the fix for 9b6a3ea7a699594162ed3d11e4e04b98568dc5c0.
Specifically a movs pc,lr in the kernels ret_fast_syscall returning to
some thumb mode user space code but store_reg unconditionally aligned
the return PC instead of treating the return as an "interworking"
branch.
I suspect we need to audit all calls to store_reg that might involve the
PC to ensure "interworking" branches are correctly handled. Also I'm not
quite sure how the code worked before 9b6a3e as the store_reg path
wouldn't have triggered the store_cpu_field(var, thumb) to set the
processor mode back to thumb.
