ra == 0, narrow mode, will crash, due to write into constant 0.
Obviously 0 does not need extending, so this could be
if (!a->ra) {
ea = constant 0;
} else if (narrow mode) {
ea = tcg_temp_new();
tcg_gen_ext32u_tl(ea, cpu_gpr[a->ra]);
} else {
ra = cpu_gpr[a->ra];
}
^ Thank you Richard, will take care in v2.
Aren't there existing helper functions for computing this address?
And if not, better to create one.
^
The calculation of effective address in these instructions is slightly
different than the others,
for which helper function exist :
EA for these insns : EA ← (RA=0) ? 0 : GPR[RA]
EA for rest storage access insns : EA ← ((RA=0) ? 0 : GPR[RA]) + GPR[RB]
This is why I could not reuse that function. Also, this calculation of
EA is limited to these
4 insns above, and only 2 others (prefixed insns), which is why I did
not create a new function
for this, considering it won't be reused for any other insn.
Please let me know if I should create a new function in this case as well.
Thanks and Regards,
Chinmay
