of the fp save area to all the process_read_fpregs() and
process_write_fpregs() functions.
None of the functions have been modified to use the new parameters.
The size is set for all the writes, but some of the arch-specific reads
just pass NULL.
The amd64 (and i386) need variable sized fp register save areas in order
to support AVX and other enhanced register areas.
These functions are rarely called - so the extra argument won't matter.
from 'void *' to the actual type 'struct coredump_iostate *'.
In most of the code the contents of the structure are still unknown.
This just stops the wrong type of pointer being passed to the 'void *'
parameter.
I hope I've found everything, amd64 GENERIC and i386 GENERIC & ALL compile.
text section. GCC 4.8 ofppc kernels now boot, though they are
unable to load the symbol table correctly.
also tested with GCC 4.5 and ofppc (pegasosII.)
- remove some set but unused variables
- move some variables inside their usage #ifdef's
- cast to (void) instead of using a dummy return variable
(there are more to come, but this one is now tested with gcc 4.5)
If PPC_OEA64_BRIDGE is defined, add code so that when OEACPU_64_BRIDGE is not
present, it replaces the rfid with rfi and mfmsr/rldicl/mtmsrd sequence
with NOPs. This allows plain OEA kernels to work. (tested on PMPPC with
PPC_OEA64_BRIDGE option added).
current CPU, and use it if a CPU is taken offline
-add a bool argument to pcu_discard which tells whether the internal
"LWP has used the coprocessor" flag should be set or reset. The flag
is reported by pcu_used_p(). If set, future accesses should use the
state stored in the PCB. If reset, it should be reset to default.
The former case is useful for setmcontext().
With that, it should not be necessary anymore to manage the "FPU used"
state by an additional MD variable.
