target-ppc/fpu_helper: Fix efscmp* instructions handling
With specification at hand from the reference manual from Freescale http://cache.nxp.com/files/32bit/doc/ref_manual/SPEPEM.pdf , I have found a fix to efscmp* instructions handling in QEMU. efscmp* instructions in QEMU set crD (Condition Register nibble) values as (0b0100 << 2) = 0b10000 (consider the HELPER_SINGLE_SPE_CMP macro which left shifts the value returned by efscmp* handler by 2 bits). A value of 0b10000 is not correct according the to the reference manual. The reference manual expects efscmp* instructions to return a value of 0bx1xx. Please find attached a patch which disables left shifting in HELPER_SINGLE_SPE_CMP macro. This macro is used by efscmp* and efstst* instructions only. efstst* instruction handlers, in turn, call efscmp* handlers too. *Explanation:* Traditionally, each crD (condition register nibble) consist of 4 bits, which is set by comparisons as follows: crD = W X Y Z where W = Less than X = Greater than Y = Equal to However, efscmp* instructions being a special case return a binary result. (efscmpeq will set the crD = 0bx1xx iff when op1 == op2 and 0bx0xx otherwise; i.e. there is no notion of different crD values based on Less than, Greater than and Equal to). This effectively means that crD will store a "Greater than" comparison result iff efscmp* instruction comparison is TRUE. Compiler exploits this feature by checking for "Branch if Less than or Equal to" (ble instruction) OR "Branch if Greater than" (bgt instruction) for Branch if FALSE OR Branch if TRUE respectively after an efscmp* instruction. This can be seen in a assembly code snippet below: 27 if (__real__ x != 3.0f || __imag__ x != 4.0f) 10000498: lwz r10,8(r31) 1000049c: lis r9,16448 100004a0: efscmpeq cr7,r10,r9 100004a4: ble- cr7,0x100004b8 <bar+60> //jump to abort() call 100004a8: lwz r10,12(r31) 100004ac: lis r9,16512 100004b0: efscmpeq cr7,r10,r9 100004b4: bgt- cr7,0x100004bc <bar+64> //skip abort() call 28 abort (); 100004b8: bl 0x10000808 <abort> Signed-off-by: Talha Imran <talha_imran@mentor.com> Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
