Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 2/2] MIPS: make FPU emulator optional
 | 
						|
Date:   Mon,  7 Apr 2014 12:57:04 +0200
 | 
						|
Message-Id: <1396868224-252888-2-git-send-email-manuel.lauss@gmail.com>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This small patch makes the MIPS FPU emulator optional. The kernel
 | 
						|
kills float-users on systems without a hardware FPU by sending a SIGILL.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Disabling the emulator shrinks vmlinux by about 54kBytes (32bit,
 | 
						|
optimizing for size).

v4: rediffed because of patch 1/2, should now work with micromips as well
 | 
						|
v3: updated patch description with size savings.
 | 
						|
v2: incorporated changes suggested by Jonas Gorski
 | 
						|
    force the fpu emulator on for micromips: relocating the parts
 | 
						|
    of the mmips code in the emulator to other areas would be a
 | 
						|
    much larger change; I went the cheap route instead with this.

+	  This option lets you disable the built-in MIPS FPU (Coprocessor 1)
 | 
						|
+	  emulator, which handles floating-point instructions on processors
 | 
						|
+	  without a hardware FPU.  It is generally a good idea to keep the
 | 
						|
+	  emulator built-in, unless you are perfectly sure you have a
 | 
						|
+	  complete soft-float environment.  With the emulator disabled, all
 | 
						|
+	  users of float operations will be killed with an illegal instr-
 | 
						|
+	  uction exception.
 | 
						|
+
 | 
						|
