Re: [9fans] 5i floating point?
They do different things. the ?i series is mainly intended to debug and improve the compilers: it emulates only so much of the architecture and system, enough to get the compiler and libc going. 5e's a nice bit of work (except for the limitation to little-endian host). the emulation of /proc was interesting. 5e is more useful if you're trying to debug an arm program on an Intel, hence the interest in emulating system calls. it's probably not as useful for compiler debugging. when debugging the compilers it's convenient to run 5i with $ti :r and just let it go, rather than interacting with it by setting breakpoints etc through /proc.

aiju wrote an arm emulator for 9front some time ago and i remember he implemented floating point on it. might have a look there: http://code.google.com/p/plan9front/source/browse/sys/src/cmd/5e -- cinap
Re: [9fans] 5i floating point?
yes. the instructions are not implemented. unfortunately abort()
was called without flushing the output, so the error message wasn't
printed.
; diffy -c /sys/src/cmd/5i/run.c
/n/dump/2012/0509/sys/src/cmd/5i/run.c:260,265 - /sys/src/cmd/5i/run.c:260,266
{
Bprint(bioout, "undefined instruction trap pc #%lux inst %.8lux class
%d\n",
reg.r[REGPC], inst, reg.class);
+ Bflush(bioout);
abort();
longjmp(errjmp, 0);
}
; 5i 5.armfloat
5i
:r

[9fans] 5i floating point?
>From 9vx.OSX if I compile this
#include
#include
void main(void)
{
float f = 99.99;
exits(0);
}
with 5c/5l and then 5i it, it gives:
undefined instruction trap pc #102c inst ed9b0100 class 92
Is floating point supported with 5i?
