      target-mips: Add abs2008 flavor of <ABS|NEG>.<S|D> · 6be77480
      Aleksandar Markovic 提交于
      Updated handling of instructions <ABS|NEG>.<S|D>. Note that legacy
      (pre-abs2008) ABS and NEG instructions are arithmetic (and, therefore,
      any NaN operand causes signaling invalid operation), while abs2008
      ones are non-arithmetic, always and only changing the sign bit, even
      for NaN-like operands. Details on these instructions are documented
      in [1] p. 35 and 359.
      
      Implementation-wise, abs2008 versions are implemented without helpers,
      for simplicity and performance sake.

      softfloat: Implement run-time-configurable meaning of signaling NaN bit · af39bc8c
      Aleksandar Markovic 提交于
      This patch modifies SoftFloat library so that it can be configured in
      run-time in relation to the meaning of signaling NaN bit, while, at the
      same time, strictly preserving its behavior on all existing platforms.
      
      Background:
      
      In floating-point calculations, there is a need for denoting undefined or
      unrepresentable values. This is achieved by defining certain floating-point
      numerical values to be NaNs (which stands for "not a number"). For additional
      reasons, virtually all modern floating-point unit implementations use two
      kinds of NaNs: quiet and signaling. The binary representations of these two
      kinds of NaNs, as a rule, differ only in one bit (that bit is, traditionally,
      the first bit of mantissa).
      
      Up to 2008, standards for floating-point did not specify all details about
      binary representation of NaNs. More specifically, the meaning of the bit
      that is used for distinguishing between signaling and quiet NaNs was not
      strictly prescribed. (IEEE 754-2008 was the first floating-point standard
      that defined that meaning clearly, see [1], p. 35) As a result, different
      platforms took different approaches, and that presented considerable
      challenge for multi-platform emulators like QEMU.
      
      Mips platform represents the most complex case among QEMU-supported
      platforms regarding signaling NaN bit. Up to the Release 6 of Mips
      architecture, "1" in signaling NaN bit denoted signaling NaN, which is
      opposite to IEEE 754-2008 standard. From Release 6 on, Mips architecture
      adopted IEEE standard prescription, and "0" denotes signaling NaN. On top of
      that, Mips architecture for SIMD (also known as MSA, or vector instructions)
      also specifies signaling bit in accordance to IEEE standard. MSA unit can be
      implemented with both pre-Release 6 and Release 6 main processor units.
      
      QEMU uses SoftFloat library to implement various floating-point-related
      instructions on all platforms. The current QEMU implementation allows for
      defining meaning of signaling NaN bit during build time, and is implemented
      via preprocessor macro called SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
      
      On the other hand, the change in this patch enables SoftFloat library to be
      configured in run-time. This configuration is meant to occur during CPU
      initialization, at the moment when it is definitely known what desired
      behavior for particular CPU (or any additional FPUs) is.
      
      The change is implemented so that it is consistent with existing
      implementation of similar cases. This means that structure float_status is
      used for passing the information about desired signaling NaN bit on each
      invocation of SoftFloat functions. The additional field in float_status is
      called snan_bit_is_one, which supersedes macro SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
      
      IMPORTANT:
      
      This change is not meant to create any change in emulator behavior or
      functionality on any platform. It just provides the means for SoftFloat
      library to be used in a more flexible way - in other words, it will just
      prepare SoftFloat library for usage related to Mips platform and its
      specifics regarding signaling bit meaning, which is done in some of
      subsequent patches from this series.
      
      Further break down of changes:
      
        1) Added field snan_bit_is_one to the structure float_status, and
           correspondent setter function set_snan_bit_is_one().
      
        2) Constants <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan
           (used both internally and externally) converted to functions
           <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan(float_status*).
           This is necessary since they are dependent on signaling bit meaning.
           At the same time, for the sake of code cleanup and simplicity, constants
           <floatx80|float128>_default_nan_<low|high> (used only internally within
           SoftFloat library) are removed, as not needed.
      
        3) Added a float_status* argument to SoftFloat library functions
           XXX_is_quiet_nan(XXX a_), XXX_is_signaling_nan(XXX a_),
           XXX_maybe_silence_nan(XXX a_). This argument must be present in
           order to enable correct invocation of new version of functions
           XXX_default_nan(). (XXX is <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>
           here)
      
        4) Updated code for all platforms to reflect changes in SoftFloat library.
           This change is twofolds: it includes modifications of SoftFloat library
           functions invocations, and an addition of invocation of function
           set_snan_bit_is_one() during CPU initialization, with arguments that
           are appropriate for each particular platform. It was established that
           all platforms zero their main CPU data structures, so snan_bit_is_one(0)
           in appropriate places is not added, as it is not needed.

      target-mips: indicate presence of IEEE 754-2008 FPU in R6/R5+MSA CPUs · ba5c79f2
      Leon Alrae 提交于
      MIPS Release 6 and MIPS SIMD Architecture make it mandatory to have IEEE
      754-2008 FPU which is indicated by CP1 FIR.HAS2008, FCSR.ABS2008 and
      FCSR.NAN2008 bits set to 1.
      
      In QEMU we still keep these bits cleared as there is no 2008-NaN support.
      However, this now causes problems preventing from running R6 Linux with
      the v4.5 kernel. Kernel refuses to execute 2008-NaN ELFs on a CPU
      whose FPU does not support 2008-NaN encoding:
      
        (...)
        VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 8:0.
        devtmpfs: mounted
        Freeing unused kernel memory: 256K (ffffffff806f0000 - ffffffff80730000)
        request_module: runaway loop modprobe binfmt-464c
        Starting init: /sbin/init exists but couldn't execute it (error -8)
        request_module: runaway loop modprobe binfmt-464c
        Starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it (error -8)
        Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel. See Linux Documentation/init.txt for guidance.
      
      Therefore always indicate presence of 2008-NaN support in R6 as well as in
      R5+MSA CPUs, even though this feature is not yet supported by MIPS in QEMU.

      tcg: Add type for vCPU pointers · 1bcea73e
      Lluís Vilanova 提交于
      Adds the 'TCGv_env' type for pointers to 'CPUArchState' objects. The
      tracing infrastructure later needs to differentiate between regular
      pointers and pointers to vCPUs.
      
      Also changes all targets to use the new 'TCGv_env' type instead of the
      generic 'TCGv_ptr'. As of now, the change is merely cosmetic ('TCGv_env'
      translates into 'TCGv_ptr'), but that could change in the future to
      enforce the difference.
      
      Note that a 'TCGv_env' type (for 'CPUState') is not added, since all
      helpers currently receive the architecture-specific
      pointer ('CPUArchState').
