[PATCH] MIPS: R2-on-R6 emulation bugfix of BLEZL and BGTZL instructions

Show all headers | View raw

MIPS R2 emulation doesn't take into account that BLEZL and BGTZL instructions
require register RT = 0. If it is not zero it can be some legitimate MIPS R6
instruction.

Problem happens after emulation optimization then emulation routine tries
to pipeline emulation and after emulation of one instruction it picks up
a next candidate. In single pass strategy it does not happen because CPU
doesn't trap on branch-compacts which share opcode space with BLEZL/BGTZL
(but has RT != 0, of course).
