It seems that the proposed target independent thread pointer stuff made it into

mainline.  I guess the SH specific built-ins can be removed now.  I will check

it out.



Another thing that I'm not sure about is whether 'ldc  rn,gbr'  and 'stc 

gbr,rn' instructions can go in the delay slot, or whether they will cause a

slot illegal exception.  Currently this 



void* test (void)

{

  return __builtin_thread_pointer ();

}



will result in



  rts

  stc   gbr,r0



I've looked in the source of the GDB sim and it seems that the sim will not

detect this as a slot illegal instruction.  However, the sim will also not

detect 'stc  sgr,rn' as a slot illegal instruction, but in my older

interrupt/exception code I was doing:



  stc  sgr,r15

  rte

  nop



because otherwise it would cause trouble.

The HW manuals unfortunately don't mention any details.  Basically all of them

say: stc, stc.l, ldc, ldc.l instructions might cause a slot illegal exception. 

But it doesn't say which register combinations are slot illegal and which are

legal.



Kaz, do you happen to know something regarding this matter?
