Moving TIF_32BIT to use bit 20 instead of 4 in the task flag field. This change is making room for an upcoming new task macro (_TIF_SYSCALL_EMU) which is preferred to set a bit in the lower 16-bits part of the word. This upcoming flag macro will take part in a composed macro (_TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE) which will contain other flags as well, and it is preferred that the whole _TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE macro only sets the lower 16 bits of a word, so, it could be handled using immediate operations (as load immediate, add immediate, ...) where the immediate operand (SI) is limited to 16-bits. Another possible solution would be using the LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() macro to load a full 64-bits word immediate, but it takes 5 operations instead of one. Having TIF_32BITS being redefined to use an upper bit is not a problem since there is only one place in the assembly code where TIF_32BIT is being used, and it could be replaced with an operation with right shift (addis), since it is used alone, i.e. not being part of a composed macro, which has different bits set, and would require LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(). Tested on a 64 bits Big Endian machine running a 32 bits task. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |
