This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled MIPS: cp1emu: Fix ISA restrictions for cop1x_op instructions to the 3.17-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: mips-cp1emu-fix-isa-restrictions-for-cop1x_op-instructions.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.17 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From a5466d7bba9af83a82cc7c081b2a7d557cde3204 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2014 10:21:54 +0100 Subject: MIPS: cp1emu: Fix ISA restrictions for cop1x_op instructions From: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@xxxxxxxxxx> commit a5466d7bba9af83a82cc7c081b2a7d557cde3204 upstream. Commit 08a07904e1828 ("MIPS: math-emu: Remove most ifdefery") removed the #ifdef ISA conditions and switched to runtime detection. However, according to the instruction set manual, the cop1x_op instructions are available in >=MIPS32r2 as well. This fixes a problem on MIPS32r2 with the ntpd package which failed to execute with a SIGILL exit code due to the fact that a madd.d instruction was not being emulated.
