From c658eac628aa8df040dfe614556d95e6da3a9ffb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Zankel Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2008 13:17:07 -0800 Subject: [XTENSA] Add support for configurable registers and coprocessors The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch or during interrupt handling. This patch adds support for these additional states: - save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon interrupt entry and exit. - context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor - 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor - ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers - update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel --- include/asm-xtensa/sigcontext.h | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'include/asm-xtensa/sigcontext.h') diff --git a/include/asm-xtensa/sigcontext.h b/include/asm-xtensa/sigcontext.h index dff3c54a3c12..03383af8c3b7 100644 --- a/include/asm-xtensa/sigcontext.h +++ b/include/asm-xtensa/sigcontext.h @@ -22,6 +22,7 @@ struct sigcontext { unsigned long sc_acclo; unsigned long sc_acchi; unsigned long sc_a[16]; + void *sc_xtregs; }; #endif /* _XTENSA_SIGCONTEXT_H */ -- cgit v1.2.3
