From 7f65afb97f279d9d02d0779384e8bd5ace064dea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Burton Date: Mon, 27 Jan 2014 15:23:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Add MSA register definitions & access This patch introduces definitions for the MSA control registers and functions which allow access to both the control & vector registers. If the toolchain being used to build the kernel includes support for MSA then this patch will make use of that support & use MSA instructions directly. However toolchain support for MSA is very new & far from a point where it can be reasonably expected that everyone building the kernel uses a toolchain with support. Thus fallbacks using .word assembler directives are also provided for now as a temporary measure.
