Hybrid FPRs is a scheme where scalar FP registers are 64b wide, but accesses to odd indexed single registers use bits 63:32 of the preceeding even indexed 64b register. In this mode all FP code except that built for the plain FP64 ABI can execute correctly. Most notably a combination of FP64A & FP32 code can execute correctly, allowing for existing FP32 binaries to be linked with new FP64A binaries that can make use of 64 bit FP & MSA. Hybrid FPRs are implemented by setting both the FR & FRE bits, trapping & emulating single precision FP instructions (via Reserved Instruction exceptions) whilst allowing others to execute natively. It therefore has a penalty in terms of execution speed, and should only be used when no fully native mode can be. As more binaries are recompiled to use either the FPXX or FP64(A) ABIs, the need for hybrid FPRs should diminish. However in the short to mid term it allows for a gradual transition towards that world, rather than a complete ABI break which is not feasible for some users & not desirable for many. A task will be executed using the hybrid FPR scheme when its TIF_HYBRID_FPREGS flag is set & TIF_32BIT_FPREGS is clear. A further patch will set the flags as necessary, this patch simply adds the infrastructure necessary for the hybrid FPR mode to work. Signed-off-by:

Starting with version 2.24.51.20140728 MIPS binutils complain loudly about mixing soft-float and hard-float object files, leading to this build failure since GCC is invoked with "-msoft-float" on MIPS: {standard input}: Warning: .gnu_attribute 4,3 requires `softfloat' LD arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu-ld: Warning: arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/alchemy/common/prom.o), arch/mips/alchemy/common/sleeper.o uses -mhard-float To fix this, we detect if GAS is new enough to support "-msoft-float" command option, and if it does, we can let GCC pass it to GAS; but then we also need to sprinkle the files which make use of floating point registers with the necessary ".set hardfloat" directives.

Preemption must be disabled throughout the process of enabling the FPU, enabling MSA & initialising the vector registers. Without doing so it is possible to lose the FPU or MSA whilst initialising them causing that initialisation to fail. Signed-off-by:

The kernel depends upon MSA never being enabled when the FPU is not, a condition which is currently violated in a few places (whilst saving sigcontext, following mips_cpu_save). Catch all the problem cases by disabling MSA in lose_fpu, after saving context if necessary. Signed-off-by:

This patch replaces the fpureg_t typedef with a "union fpureg" enabling easier access to 32 & 64 bit values. This allows the access macros used in cp1emu.c to be simplified somewhat. It will also make it easier to expand the width of the FP registers as will be done in a future patch in order to support the 128 bit registers introduced with MSA. No behavioural change is intended by this patch. Signed-off-by:

CPUs implementing MIPS32 R2 may include a 64-bit FPU, just as MIPS64 CPUs do. In order to preserve backwards compatibility a 64-bit FPU will act like a 32-bit FPU (by accessing doubles from the least significant 32 bits of an even-odd pair of FP registers) when the Status.FR bit is zero, again just like a mips64 CPU. The standard O32 ABI is defined expecting a 32-bit FPU, however recent toolchains support use of a 64-bit FPU from an O32 MIPS32 executable. When an ELF executable is built to use a 64-bit FPU a new flag (EF_MIPS_FP64) is set in the ELF header. With this patch the kernel will check the EF_MIPS_FP64 flag when executing an O32 binary, and set Status.FR accordingly. The addition of O32 64-bit FP support lessens the opportunity for optimisation in the FPU emulator, so a CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT Kconfig option is introduced to allow this support to be disabled for those that don't require it. Inspired by an earlier patch by Leonid Yegoshin, but implemented more cleanly & correctly. Signed-off-by:

The save_fp_context()/restore_fp_context() might sleep on accessing user stack and therefore might lose FPU ownership in middle of them. If these function failed due to "in_atomic" test in do_page_fault, touch the sigcontext area in non-atomic context and retry these save/restore operation. This is a replacement of a (broken) fix which was titled "Allow CpU exception in kernel partially". Signed-off-by:

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
