[Qemu-devel] [PULL v2 19/38] linux-user: Set r14 on exit from microblaze


From: riku . voipio
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL v2 19/38] linux-user: Set r14 on exit from microblaze syscall
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 16:00:10 +0300

From: Peter Maydell <address@hidden>

All syscall exits on microblaze result in r14 being equal to the
PC we return to, because the kernel syscall exit instruction "rtbd"
does this. (This is true even for sigreturn(); note that r14 is
not a userspace-usable register as the kernel may clobber it at
any point.)

Emulate the setting of r14 on exit; this isn't really a guest
visible change for valid guest code because r14 isn't reliably
observable anyway. However having the code and the comment helps
to explain why it's ok for the ERESTARTSYS handling not to undo
the changes to r14 that happen on syscall entry.
