Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86: math-emu: limit MATH_EMULATION to 486SX compatibles
Date: Tue,  1 Oct 2019 16:23:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191001142344.1274185-2-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191001142344.1274185-1-arnd@arndb.de>

The fpu emulation code is old and fragile in places, try to limit its
use to builds for CPUs that actually use it. As far as I can tell,
this is only true for i486sx compatibles, including the Cyrix 486SLC,
AMD Am486SX and ÉLAN SC410, UMC U5S amd DM&P VortexSX86, all of which
were relatively short-lived and got replaced with i486DX compatible
processors soon after introduction, though the some of the embedded
versions remained available much longer.
