11 * This file contains exception handler for address error exception with the
12 * special capability to execute faulting instructions in software. The
13 * handler does not try to handle the case when the program counter points
14 * to an address not aligned to a word boundary.
16 * Putting data to unaligned addresses is a bad practice even on Intel where
17 * only the performance is affected. Much worse is that such code is non-
18 * portable. Due to several programs that die on MIPS due to alignment
19 * problems I decided to implement this handler anyway though I originally
20 * didn't intend to do this at all for user code.
22 * For now I enable fixing of address errors by default to make life easier.
23 * I however intend to disable this somewhen in the future when the alignment
24 * problems with user programs have been fixed. For programmers this is the
27 * Fixing address errors is a per process option. The option is inherited
28 * across fork(2) and execve(2) calls. If you really want to use the
29 * option in your user programs - I discourage the use of the software
30 * emulation strongly - use the following code in your userland stuff:
32 * #include <sys/sysmips.h>
35 * sysmips(MIPS_FIXADE, x);
38 * The argument x is 0 for disabling software emulation, enabled otherwise.
40 * Below a little program to play around with this feature.
43 * #include <sys/sysmips.h>
46 * unsigned char bar[8];
49 * main(int argc, char *argv[])
51 * struct foo x = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7};
52 * unsigned int *p = (unsigned int *) (x.bar + 3);
56 * sysmips(MIPS_FIXADE, atoi(argv[1]));
58 * printf("*p = %08lx\n", *p);
62 * for(i = 0; i <= 7; i++)
63 * printf("%02x ", x.bar[i]);
67 * Coprocessor loads are not supported; I think this case is unimportant
70 * TODO: Handle ndc (attempted store to doubleword in uncached memory)
71 * exception for the R6000.
72 * A store crossing a page boundary might be executed only partially.
73 * Undo the partial store in this case.
