According to MPC8260UM/D Rev.0, there are some leftovers still available, i.e. 32 FPRs, which can be accessed if MSR[FP] = 1 via FP load & store instructions. "No arithmetic instructions are supported in hardware". The FPRs may be used "for systems that require emulation of FP instructions and for increasing data throughput". gm -- Gunter Magin magin[AT]skil.camelot.de ------ Want more information?
