The various VSX Convert to Integer instructions should truncate the mantissa. This fix forces the softfloat rounding mode to "round to zero" prior to performing the conversion. After the conversion is completed, the internal rounding mode is restored from the PowerPC FPSCR bits.
Signed-off-by: Tom Musta <tommu...@gmail.com> --- V2: Restored rounding mode prior to checking exceptions per Peter Maydell's review. This bug was discovered when running wget, which does this: double maxtime; struct timeval tmout; ... tmout.tv_usec = 1000000 * (maxtime - (long) maxtime); The newest PowerPC 64-bit gcc's are now using xscvdpsxds to perform the cast of the double to long. A timeout of 0.95 was erroneously rounding up to 1 and hence computing a negative timeout value. It would be great if we could still get this into 2.0. target-ppc/fpu_helper.c | 4 ++++ 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/target-ppc/fpu_helper.c b/target-ppc/fpu_helper.c index fd91239..9b3a6f7 100644 --- a/target-ppc/fpu_helper.c +++ b/target-ppc/fpu_helper.c @@ -2568,7 +2568,11 @@ void helper_##op(CPUPPCState *env, uint32_t opcode) \ fload_invalid_op_excp(env, POWERPC_EXCP_FP_VXCVI, 0); \ xt.tfld = rnan; \ } else { \ + /* force round to zero mode (truncation) */ \ + set_float_rounding_mode(float_round_to_zero, &env->fp_status); \ xt.tfld = stp##_to_##ttp(xb.sfld, &env->fp_status); \ + /* restore rounding mode from FPSCR */ \ + fpscr_set_rounding_mode(env); \ if (env->fp_status.float_exception_flags & float_flag_invalid) { \ fload_invalid_op_excp(env, POWERPC_EXCP_FP_VXCVI, 0); \ } \ -- 1.7.1
