Been there, done that. It was just a missing case statement that got lost during
the merge :-)
For the records (Sharp Mobilon HC-4500):
Philips PR31700 (identical to Toshiba TMPR3912) @ 73.7 MHz, Implementation 0x22
(same as R46[45]0), Revision 0x10 (does anybody know what R46[45]0 have?).
Based on an R300A core with some ISA-II extensions, 1KB instruction cache, and
4KB write-through data cache, 32 TLB entries.
Back on topic:
My Mobilon dies horribly with the screen going blank and even a soft reset
doesn't revive it. All that helps is to remove all batteries. No error messages
can be seen.
My DS 5000/133 (R3000A) with FPU disabled and FPU emulation shows:
Illegal instruction 00000034 at 801ce924, ...
System.map shows:
801ce920 b dsemul_insns
801ce928 b dsemul_cpc
Looks like your trick in mips_dsemul() doesn't work too well for ISA-I CPUs. Do
you have an idea for an alternative?
