[PATCH v5 0/5] riscv: Add support to no-FPU systems
From: Alan Kao
Date: Thu Aug 09 2018 - 02:27:11 EST
This patchset adds an option, CONFIG_FPU, to enable/disable floating-
point procedures.
Kernel's new behavior will be as follows:
* with CONFIG_FPU=y
All FPU codes are reserved. If no FPU is found during booting, a
global flag will be set, and those functions will be bypassed with
condition check to that flag.
* with CONFIG_FPU=n
No floating-point instructions in kernel and all related settings
are excluded.
Changes in v5:
- Invert the polarity of checking flag from no_fpu to has_fpu.
Changes in v4:
- Append a new patch to detect existence of FPU and followups.
- Add SPDX header to newly created fpu.S.
- Fix a build error, sorry for that.
- Fix wording, style, etc.
Changes in v3:
- Refactor the whole patch into independent ones.
Changes in v2:
- Various code cleanups and style fixes.
Alan Kao (5):
Extract FPU context operations from entry.S
Refactor FPU code in signal setup/return procedures
Cleanup ISA string setting
Allow to disable FPU support
Auto-detect whether a FPU exists
