[PATCH 3.16 04/86] MIPS: jump_label.c: Correct the span of the J instruction

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

 



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

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

From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 99436f7d69045800ffd1d66912f85d37150c7e2b upstream.

Correct the check for the span of the 256MB segment addressable by the J
instruction according to this instruction's semantics.  The calculation
of the jump target is applied to the address of the delay-slot
instruction that immediately follows.  Adjust the check accordingly by
adding 4 to `e->code' that holds the address of the J instruction
itself.
