38 68060 FLOATING-POINT SOFTWARE PACKAGE (Kernel version)
39 -------------------------------------------------------
40
41 The file fpsp.sa contains the 68060 Floating-Point Software
42 Package. This package is essentially a set of exception handlers
43 that can be integrated into an operating system.
44 These exception handlers emulate Unimplemented FP instructions,
45 instructions using unimplemented data types, and instructions
46 using unimplemented addressing modes. In addition, this package
47 includes exception handlers to provide full IEEE-754 compliant
48 exception handling.
49
50 Release file format:
51 --------------------
52 The file fpsp.sa is essentially a hexadecimal image of the
53 release package. This is the ONLY format which will be supported.
54 The hex image was created by assembling the source code and
55 then converting the resulting binary output image into an
56 ASCII text file. The hexadecimal numbers are listed
57 using the Motorola Assembly Syntax assembler directive "dc.l"
58 (define constant longword). The file can be converted to other
59 assembly syntaxes by using any word processor with a global
60 search and replace function.
61
62 To assist in assembling and linking this module with other modules,
63 the installer should add a symbolic label to the top of the file.
64 This will allow calling routines to access the entry points
65 of this package.
66
67 The source code fpsp.s has also been included but only for
68 documentation purposes.

70 Release file structure:
71 -----------------------
72
73 (top of module)
74 -----------------
75 | | - 128 byte-sized section
76 (1) | Call-Out | - 4 bytes per entry (user fills these in)
77 | | - example routines in fskeleton.s
78 -----------------
79 | | - 8 bytes per entry
80 (2) | Entry Point | - user does "bra" or "jmp" to this address
81 | |
82 -----------------
83 | | - code section
84 (3) ~ ~
85 | |
86 -----------------
87 (bottom of module)
88
89 The first section of this module is the "Call-out" section. This section
90 is NOT INCLUDED in fpsp.sa (an example "Call-out" section is provided at
91 the end of the file fskeleton.s). The purpose of this section is to allow
92 the FPSP routines to reference external functions that must be provided
93 by the host operating system. This section MUST be exactly 128 bytes in
94 size. There are 32 fields, each 4 bytes in size. Each field corresponds
95 to a function required by the FPSP (these functions and their location are
96 listed in "68060FPSP call-outs" below). Each field entry should contain
97 the address of the corresponding function RELATIVE to the starting address
98 of the "call-out" section. The "Call-out" section must sit adjacent to the
99 fpsp.sa image in memory.
100
101 The second section, the "Entry-point" section, is used by external routines
102 to access the functions within the FPSP. Since the fpsp.sa hex file contains
103 no symbol names, this section contains function entry points that are fixed
104 with respect to the top of the package. The currently defined entry-points
105 are listed in section "68060 FPSP entry points" below. A calling routine
106 would simply execute a "bra" or "jmp" that jumped to the selected function
107 entry-point.
108
109 For example, if the 68060 hardware took a "Line-F Emulator" exception
110 (vector #11), the operating system should execute something similar to:
111
112 bra _060FPSP_TOP+128+48
113
114 (_060FPSP_TOP is the starting address of the "Call-out" section; the "Call-out"
115 section is 128 bytes long; and the F-Line FPSP handler entry point is located
116 48 bytes from the top of the "Entry-point" section.)
117
118 The third section is the code section. After entering through an "Entry-point",
119 the entry code jumps to the appropriate emulation code within the code section.
