OpenRISC floating point state is not so expensive to save as OpenRISC uses general purpose registers for floating point instructions. We need to save only the floating point status and control register, FPCSR. Add support to maintain the FPCSR unconditionally upon exceptions and switches. On machines that do not support FPU this will always just store 0x0 and restore is a no-op. On FPU systems this adds an additional special purpose register read/write and read/write to memory (already cached). Signed-off-by: Stafford Horne <shorne@gmail.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
