[PATCH 3.16 04/19] MIPS: preserve scalar FP CSR when switching vector context

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.16.43-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul Burton <paul.burton@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b83406735a4ae0aff4b614664d6a64a0fd6b9917 upstream.

Switching the vector context implicitly saves & restores the state of
the aliased scalar FP data registers, however the scalar FP control
& status register is distinct from the MSA control & status register.
In order to allow scalar FP to function correctly in programs using
MSA, the scalar CSR needs to be saved & restored along with the MSA
vector context.
