2015-11-02properly access mcontext_t program counter in cancellation handlerRich Felker-2/+1
using the actual mcontext_t definition rather than an overlaid pointer array both improves correctness/readability and eliminates some ugly hacks for archs with 64-bit registers bit 32-bit program counter. also fix UB due to comparison of pointers not in a common array object.
2015-10-15prevent reordering of or1k and powerpc thread pointer loadsRich Felker-0/+1
other archs use asm for the thread pointer load, so making that asm volatile is sufficient to inform the compiler that it has a "side effect" (crashing or giving the wrong result if the thread pointer was not yet initialized) that prevents reordering. however, powerpc and or1k have dedicated general purpose registers for the thread pointer and did not need to use any asm to access it; instead, "local register variables with a specified register" were used. however, there is no specification for ordering constraints on this type of usage, and presumably use of the thread pointer could be reordered across its initialization. to impose an ordering, I have added empty volatile asm blocks that produce the "local register variable with a specified register" as an output constraint.
2014-07-18add or1k (OpenRISC 1000) architecture portStefan Kristiansson-0/+17
With the exception of a fenv implementation, the port is fully featured. The port has been tested in or1ksim, the golden reference functional simulator for OpenRISC 1000. It passes all libc-test tests (except the math tests that requires a fenv implementation). The port assumes an or1k implementation that has support for atomic instructions (l.lwa/l.swa). Although it passes all the libc-test tests, the port is still in an experimental state, and has yet experienced very little 'real-world' use.
