  2. Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 2/2] MIPS: make FPU emulator optional
  3. Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 12:57:04 +0200
  4. Message-Id: <1396868224-252888-2-git-send-email-manuel.lauss@gmail.com>
  5. This small patch makes the MIPS FPU emulator optional. The kernel
  6. kills float-users on systems without a hardware FPU by sending a SIGILL.
  7. Disabling the emulator shrinks vmlinux by about 54kBytes (32bit,
  8. optimizing for size).

  11. v4: rediffed because of patch 1/2, should now work with micromips as well
  12. v3: updated patch description with size savings.
  13. v2: incorporated changes suggested by Jonas Gorski
  14. force the fpu emulator on for micromips: relocating the parts
  15. of the mmips code in the emulator to other areas would be a
  16. much larger change; I went the cheap route instead with this.

  30. + This option lets you disable the built-in MIPS FPU (Coprocessor 1)
  31. + emulator, which handles floating-point instructions on processors
  32. + without a hardware FPU. It is generally a good idea to keep the
  33. + emulator built-in, unless you are perfectly sure you have a
  34. + complete soft-float environment. With the emulator disabled, all
  35. + users of float operations will be killed with an illegal instr-
