The sc_used_math field of struct sigcontext & its variants has
traditionally been used as a boolean value indicating only whether or
not floating point context is saved within the sigcontext. With various
supported FP modes & the ability to switch between them this information
will no longer be enough to decode the meaning of the data stored in the
sc_fpregs fields of struct sigcontext.
To make that possible 3 bits are defined within sc_used_math:
- Bit 0 (USED_FP) represents whether FP was used, essentially
providing the boolean flag which sc_used_math as a whole provided
previously.
- Bit 1 (USED_FR1) provides the value of the Status.FR bit at the time
the FP context was saved.
- Bit 2 (USED_HYBRID_FPRS) indicates whether the FP context was saved
under the hybrid FPR scheme. Essentially, when set the odd singles
are located in bits 63:32 of the preceding even indexed sc_fpregs
element.
Any userland that tests whether the sc_used_math field is zero or
non-zero will continue to function as expected. Having said that, I
could not find any userland which uses the sc_used_math field at all.
