25/* This is the kernel's entry point into the floating point emulator.
26It is called from the kernel with code similar to this:
27
28	sub	r4, r5, #4
29	ldrt	r0, [r4]			@ r0  = instruction
30	adrsvc	al, r9, ret_from_exception	@ r9  = normal FP return
31	adrsvc	al, lr, fpundefinstr		@ lr  = undefined instr return
32
33	get_current_task r10
34	mov	r8, #1
35	strb	r8, [r10, #TSK_USED_MATH]	@ set current->used_math
36	add	r10, r10, #TSS_FPESAVE		@ r10 = workspace
37	ldr	r4, .LC2
38	ldr	pc, [r4]			@ Call FP emulator entry point
39
40The kernel expects the emulator to return via one of two possible
41points of return it passes to the emulator.  The emulator, if
42successful in its emulation, jumps to ret_from_exception (passed in
43r9) and the kernel takes care of returning control from the trap to
44the user code.  If the emulator is unable to emulate the instruction,
45it returns via _fpundefinstr (passed via lr) and the kernel halts the
46user program with a core dump.
47
48On entry to the emulator r10 points to an area of private FP workspace
49reserved in the thread structure for this process.  This is where the
50emulator saves its registers across calls.  The first word of this area
51is used as a flag to detect the first time a process uses floating point,
52so that the emulator startup cost can be avoided for tasks that don't
53want it.
54
55This routine does three things:
56
571) The kernel has created a struct pt_regs on the stack and saved the
58user registers into it.  See /usr/include/asm/proc/ptrace.h for details.
59
602) It calls EmulateAll to emulate a floating point instruction.
61EmulateAll returns 1 if the emulation was successful, or 0 if not.
62
633) If an instruction has been emulated successfully, it looks ahead at
64the next instruction.  If it is a floating point instruction, it
65executes the instruction, without returning to user space.  In this
66way it repeatedly looks ahead and executes floating point instructions
67until it encounters a non floating point instruction, at which time it
68returns via _fpreturn.
69
70This is done to reduce the effect of the trap overhead on each
71floating point instructions.  GCC attempts to group floating point
72instructions to allow the emulator to spread the cost of the trap over
73several floating point instructions.  */
