Weijie Gao 6e9281b559 mips: start.S: avoid overwriting outside gd when clearing global data in stack ... When setting up initial stack, global data will also be put in the stack, and being cleared. The assembler instructions for clearing gd is as follows: move t0, k0 1: PTR_S zero, 0(t0) blt t0, t1, 1b PTR_ADDIU t0, PTRSIZE t0 is the start address of gd, t1 is the end address of gd (t0 + GD_SIZE). [PTR_ADDIU t0, PTRSIZE] is in the delay slot of [blt t0, t1, 1b], so it will be executed before the branch operation. However the comparison for the BLT instruction is done before executing the delay slot. This means when the last word just before k1 is cleared, the loop will continue to run once. This will clear an extra word at k1, which is outside the global data. Global data is placed at the top of the stack. If the initial stack is a SRAM or locked cache, the area outside them may be inaccessible. A write operation performed in this area may cause an exception. To solve this, [PTR_ADDIU t0, PTRSIZE] should be placed before the BLT instruction.
