[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v7 0/3] target-mips: Add support for misaligned acce


From: Yongbok Kim
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v7 0/3] target-mips: Add support for misaligned accesses
Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2015 12:13:21 +0100

This patch set adds support for misaligned memory accesses in MIPS architecture
Release 6 and MIPS SIMD Architecture.

The behaviour, semantics, and architecture specifications of misaligned memory
accesses are described in:
MIPS Architecture For Programmers Volume I-A: Introduction to the MIPS64
Architecture, Appendix B Misaligned Memory Accesses.
Available at http://www.imgtec.com/mips/architectures/mips64.asp

Yongbok

v7:
* Rephrased comments (Peter)
* Reverted changes for LDPC/LWPC (Leon)
* Fixed cosmetic issues (Leon)

v6:
* Rephrased comments (Peter)

v5:
* Rewrote R6 patch to use new MO_UNALIN (Richard)
* Further cleanup to pass caculated address for MSA LD/ ST (Richard)

v4: 
* Removed the work-around per the recent TCG change for misaligned accesses
* Added probe_write() (Richard)
* Used helper_ret_*_mmu directly (Richard)
* Removed TLB checking for MSA LD (Richard)
* Removed unnecessary save_cpu_state() calls

v3:
* Rewrote MSA patch
* Work-around is using byte-to-byte accesses and endianness corrections for 
  R5+MSA. (This replaces the misaligned flag from v2.) (Leon)
* Bug fixes (Leon)
* Separate helper functions for each data formats

v2:
* Removed re-translation in the mips_cpu_do_unaligned_access() (Peter)
* Checks validity only if an access is spanning into two pages in MSA (Leon)
* Introduced misaligned flag to indicate MSA ld/st is ongoing, is used to
  allow misaligned accesses in the mips_cpu_do_unaligned_access() callback.
  This is crucial to support MSA misaligned accesses in Release 5 cores.
