[PATCH 3/5] nds32: support denormalized result through FP emulator

From: Vincent Chen
Date: Wed Sep 19 2018 - 22:47:09 EST


For current nds32 FPU, arithmetic for denormalized number is unsupported.
When nds32 FPU finds the result of floating pointer instruction is a
denormlized number, nds32 FPU thinks an underflow condition is happened
and round the result to an appropriate number. It may cause precision
loss. This commit supposes to support the arithmetic which result is a
denormalized number through re-executing the instructions by FP emulator
in kernel. Hence the underflow trapped shall be enabled by default. Enable
this feature may cause some side effects:
1. Performance loss due to extra FPU exception
2. Need another scheme to control real underflow trap
A new parameter, UDF_trap, which is belong to FPU context is used
to control underflow trap.

User can though CONFIG_SUPPORT_DENORMAL_ARITHMETIC to configure this
feature.
