: * Kernel bcopy operation in case where no process switch occurs
: (i.e. current process was using the FP and while we went into
: kernel mode, we have not yet saved the FP state anywhere).
:
: if (process-A-using-FP) {
: push FP state for process A on stack
: push process-A-using-FP flag
: }
: set process-A-using-FP flag
: use FP registers to do bcopy
:
: restore process-A-using-FP flag from stack
: restore FP state from stack
Oops. I meant:
if (process-A-using-FP) {
push FP state for process A on stack
}
push process-A-using-FP flag
set process-A-using-FP flag
use FP registers to do bcopy
restore process-A-using-FP flag from stack
if (process-A-using-FP) {
restore FP state from stack
}
