MIPS: kernel: mips-r2-to-r6-emul: Add R2 emulator for MIPS R6
MIPS R6 removed quite a few R2 instructions. However, there is plenty of <R6 userland code so we add an in-kernel emulator so we can still be able to execute all R2 userland out there. The emulator comes with a handy debugfs under /mips/ directory (r2-emul-stats) to provide some basic statistics of the instructions that are being emulated. Below are some statistics from booting a minimal buildroot image: Instruction Total BDslot ------------------------------ movs 236969 0 hilo 56686 0 muls 55279 0 divs 10941 0 dsps 0 0 bops 1 0 traps 0 0 fpus 0 0 loads 214981 17 stores 103364 0 llsc 56898 0 dsemul 150418 0 jr 370158 bltzl 43 bgezl 1594 bltzll 0 bgezll 0 bltzal 39 bgezal 39 beql 14503 bnel 138741 blezl 0 bgtzl 3988 Signed-off-by: Leonid Yegoshin <Leonid.Yegoshin@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com>
