[PATCH 16/21] MIPS: main_entry: remove exception vector array

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

 



This code must have been taken from Linux, where such a mechanism allows
for an efficient exception vector replacement for board-specific code.
We don't really need that. If some extensions for exception vector are
to be required, this may be done inside the generic handler code anyway.
As we are not using this code, it seems reasonable to just remove it.

Also properly calculate the size of the handler that we are copying into
the designated vectors. Originally, we just made a copy of a fixed size,
copying more than actually needed. We could have just hardcoded this
value there, as the code to copy now consists of just two instructions.
However it feels more safe to calculate that in code instead, so that we
don't have to update this value if some code is added there in the
future.
