|
||
|
<a name="index-MIPS-coprocessor_002ddefinition-macros"></a>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The MIPS specification allows MIPS implementations to have as many as 4
|
||
|
coprocessors, each with as many as 32 private registers. GCC supports
|
||
|
accessing these registers and transferring values between the registers
|
||
|
and memory using asm-ized variables. For example:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
||
|
<pre class="smallexample"> register unsigned int cp0count asm ("c0r1");
|
||
|
unsigned int d;
|
||
|
|
||
|
d = cp0count + 3;
|
||
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>(“c0r1” is the default name of register 1 in coprocessor 0; alternate
|
||
|
names may be added as described below, or the default names may be
|
||
|
overridden entirely in <code>SUBTARGET_CONDITIONAL_REGISTER_USAGE</code>.)
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>Coprocessor registers are assumed to be epilogue-used; sets to them will
|
||
|
be preserved even if it does not appear that the register is used again
|
||
|
later in the function.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>Another note: according to the MIPS spec, coprocessor 1 (if present) is
|
||
|
the FPU. One accesses COP1 registers through standard mips
|
||
|
floating-point support; they are not included in this mechanism.
|
||
|
</p>
