[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 00/46] Add nanoMIPS support - core functionality


From: Aleksandar Markovic
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 00/46] Add nanoMIPS support - core functionality and system mode
Date: Mon, 20 Aug 2018 20:16:08 +0200

From: Aleksandar Markovic <address@hidden>

v10->v11:

  - all user-mode patches removed (separate series will be
      created for them)
  - added capability to implement availability control via CP0
      Config3 and Config5 bits
  - refactored accordingly availability control via XNP and MT
  - added availability control via NMS
  - fix for wrong mode switch to M16 now in a separate patch
  - moderate cleanup of disassembler code
  - rebased to the latest code

v9->v10:

  - first 15 patches removed since they are applied now to the
    main tree
  - completely removed connections to and dependance on
      MIPS_HFLAG_M16 in nanoMIPS code
  - completed reworking of nanoMIPS branch handling
  - some fixes and improvements in DSP ASE patches
  - other fixes and improvements that originate from code reviews
  - rebased to the latest code

v8->v9:

  - reoganized (moved/squashed) patches so that clang build bisect
     works (as the result, number of patches dropped from 87 to 84)
  - re-examined and reworked 32-bit nanoMIPS branch instructions
  - minor improvements in commit messages  
  - rebased to the latest code

v7->v8:

  - the series is slightly reorganized so that:
      - patches 1-19 are fixes and improvements that are not
      dependent on the existence of nanoMIPS (even though most
      of them are logicaly connected to (and necessary for)
      nanoMIPS support) - they fix and improve pre-nanoMIPS code
      - patches 20-65 introduce core nanoMIPS functionality, but
      do not contain any dependence on or reference to nanoMIPS
      Linux ABI
      - patches 66-87 mostly deal with Linux user mode-related
      nanoMIPS functionality, therefore dependent on nanoMIPS
      Linux ABI
  - the series will probably be split into three (corresponding
      to the organization mentioned above) in near future
  - added support for availability control via bit config XNP
  - fixed availabitily control for LLWP/SCWP
  - added support for availability control via bit config MT
  - fixed availabitily control for pre-nanoMIPS MT ASE
  - fixed availabitily control for nanoMIPS MT ASE
  - completely removed case-statements defined by integer range
      from translate.c
  - patch on nanoMIPS specifics in ELF headers split into two
  - patch on GT64120-related functionality in nanoMIPS bootloader
      updated with comments and reorganizes with respect to
      endianness
  - replaced one instance of shift/mask with extract32()
  - fixed one instance of missing default case in decoding engine
  - removed several instances of unnecessary default case in
    decoding engine
  - minor tweaks related to variable scope and naming
  - fixed several spelling mistakes in commit messages
  - rebased to the latest code

v6->v7:

  - found a better place for MIPS_ARCH in elf.h
  - improved patch for LLWP and SCWP
  - fixed missing availability control, alignment, usage
    of extract32() in DSP patches
  - added disassembler support for microMIPS and nanoMIPS
  - removed unnecessary addition of one empty line in the
    patch on WR bit
  - improved statx() syscall translation
  - improved nanoMIPS items in binfmt script
  - amended pre-nanoMIPS items in qemu-doc.texi
  - added nanoMIPS items in qemu-doc.texi
  - changed slightly patch order to be logicaly more
    comprehensive 
  - rebased to the latest code
  - NOTE: there will be some sheckpatch.pl errors and warning
    for this series; however, we think those are flase positives
    in these particular circumstances - therefore we will not
    change any patch related to these checkpatch.pl messages

v5->v6:

  - used names offset and imm instead of rd and rs when
    appropriate
  - used gen_op_addr_addi when appropriate in one more place
  - avoided usage of tcg_temp_local_new
  - avoided unnecessary sign extension related to addr_add
  - fixed unprotected storing to cpu_gpr[0]
  - removed some unnecessary testing for ISA_NANOMIPS
  - updated patch for LLWP and SCWP
  - extract32 inserted instead of shift/mask in DSP patches
  - removed useless casts from DSP patches
  - reorganized functions to eliminated duplicated loading of
    gpr values into tcg variables in DSP patches
  - check Config1.WR bit for Watch registers only when using
    in runtime
  - removed duplicated check for bad address in PC register
  - added support for statx system call
  - updated script qemu-binfmt-conf.sh for nanoMIPS
  - rebased to the latest code

v4->v5:

  - merged series "Mips maintenance and misc fixes and improvements"
    and this one for easier handling (there are build dependencies)
  - eliminated shadow variables from translate.c
  - replaced shift/mask combination with extract32()
  - added new function gen_op_addr_addi()
  - added patch for LLWP and SCWP
  - added "fall through" comments at appropriate places
  - eliminated micromips flag from I7200 definition
  - numerous other enhancements originating from reviewer's
    comments
  - some of the patches split into two or more for easier
    handling and review
  - rebased to the latest code

v3->v4:

  - added support for nanoMIPS user mode functionality and
    configuration
  - DSP patch split into three for easier review and handling
  - corrected indentation in all decoding engine patches
  - shift/mask replaced with equivalent extract32() in some
    patches
  - added missing default cases in some patches
  - refactored invocation logic aroung decode_nanomips_opc()
  - improved comments before decode_gpr_XXX() utilities
  - all four decode_gpr_XXX() are now in a single patch
  - two patches on updating BadInstr and related registers
    are now merged, and execution logic improved
  - minor formatting corrections
  - rebased to the latest code

v2->v3:

  - added support for nanoMIPS-specifics in ELF headers
  - added support for CP0 Config0.WR bit
  - updated I7200 definition
  - improved indentation of some switch statements
  - slight reorganization of patches (splitting, order)
  - rebased to the latest code

v1->v2:

  - added DSP ASE support
  - added MT ASE support
  - added GDB XML support
  - order of patches changed
  - commit messages and patch title improved across the board
  - obsolete email addresses for authors and cosigners replaced
    with the right ones
  - some functions renamed to reflect better the documentation
  - some macros renamed to reflect better their nanoMIPS nature
  - streamlined formatting
  - some of other reviewer's comments addressed, but the majority
    was not; this is because the focus of this version was on
    completing the functionality as much as possible; remaining
    comments will be addressed in the subsequent versions of this
    series

This series of patches implements recently announced nanoMIPS on QEMU.
nanoMIPS is a variable length ISA containing 16, 32 and 48-bit wide
instructions. It is designed to be portable at assembly level with
other MIPS and microMIPS code, but contains a number of changes that
enhance code density and efficiency. The largest portion of patches
is nanoMIPS decoding engine.
