From 8e17f07c295cec854d89cbf427bbd2f8dd915eda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Giacomo Travaglini Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2018 15:53:43 +0000 Subject: arch-arm: Arch regs and pseudo regs distinction A new identifier has been introduced: NUM_PHYS_MISCREGS, which is used as a boundary for the number of physical (real) Misc registers in the system. Pseudo registers (like CP15_UNIMPL) have been moved after the NUM_PHYS_MISCREGS identifier, so that their enum number is (NUM_PHYS_MISCREGS < number < NUM_MISCREGS). Moving away those registers has created some free slots that can be used for future Misc register implementation. SERIALIZE and UNSERIALIZE now only save/restore PHYSICAL Misc Registers. This allows us to define as many pseudo registers as we want without being concerned about checkpoint compatibility.
