Hi Kumar, I think enabling SPEFSCR[FINXE] or SPEFSCR[FRMC]=0b10/0b11 to enable FP round interrupt will cause the exception occurring very often, which will dramatically decrease the performance of SPE instructions. Do you think putting an option in menuconfig to let user choose whether to enable FP round simulation is a reasonable idea?
I don't see any issue with it, but I have to believe if you want full IEEE results, you want full IEEE results for everything. - k
