# This patch changes all cases where the ARM assembler mov pc,rx # instructions are used to ensure that the thumb/arm interwork change of # process more works - in essence mov pc,rx needs to become bx rc. # # The ldr pc or ldm rx, {pc} instructions are not changed - this is # fine on ARM >=v5 but will fail to restore thumb mode on ARM v4T, # i.e. this code will not provide support for thumb on ARM v4T. # # One mov pc is left in resolve.S, this is fixed in a different patch - # thumb-resolve.patch # # The changes are protected by __THUMB_INTERWORK__ - the original # mov instruction will work on newer architectures and is required on # arch v4 (not v4t) and earlier - those which did not support thumb - # so this is safe. See gcc lib1asmfuncs for a more exact test. # --- uClibc-0.9.28/.pc/thumb-mov-pc-bx.patch/ldso/ldso/arm/dl-startup.h 2005-08-17 15:49:41.000000000 -0700 +++ uClibc-0.9.28/ldso/ldso/arm/dl-startup.h 2005-09-16 23:38:34.266546180 -0700 @@ -4,6 +4,7 @@ * Copyright (C) 2000-2004 by Erik Andersen */ +#if !
