The following built-in functions are supported on the SH1, SH2, SH3 and SH4 families of processors:
Sets the ‘GBR’ register to the specified value ptr. This is usually used by system code that manages threads and execution contexts. The compiler normally does not generate code that modifies the contents of ‘GBR’ and thus the value is preserved across function calls. Changing the ‘GBR’ value in user code must be done with caution, since the compiler might use ‘GBR’ in order to access thread local variables.
Returns the value that is currently set in the ‘GBR’ register. Memory loads and stores that use the thread pointer as a base address are turned into ‘GBR’ based displacement loads and stores, if possible. For example:
struct my_tcb { int a, b, c, d, e; }; int get_tcb_value (void) { // Generate ‘mov.l @(8,gbr),r0’ instruction return ((my_tcb*)__builtin_thread_pointer ())->c; }
Returns the value that is currently set in the ‘FPSCR’ register.
Sets the ‘FPSCR’ register to the specified value val, while preserving the current values of the FR, SZ and PR bits.
