+/* This is the kernel's entry point into the floating point emulator.
+It is called from the kernel with code similar to this:
+
+	mov	fp, #0
+	teqp	pc, #I_BIT | MODE_SVC
+	ldr	r4, .LC2
+	ldr	pc, [r4]		@ Call FP module USR entry point
+
+The kernel expects the emulator to return via one of two possible
+points of return it passes to the emulator.  The emulator, if
+successful in its emulation, jumps to ret_from_exception and the
+kernel takes care of returning control from the trap to the user code.
+If the emulator is unable to emulate the instruction, it returns to
+fpundefinstr and the kernel halts the user program with a core dump.
+
+This routine does four things:
+
+1) It saves SP into a variable called userRegisters.  The kernel has
+created a struct pt_regs on the stack and saved the user registers
+into it.  See /usr/include/asm/proc/ptrace.h for details.  The
+emulator code uses userRegisters as the base of an array of words from
+which the contents of the registers can be extracted.
+
+2) It locates the FP emulator work area within the TSS structure and
+points `fpa11' to it.
+
+3) It calls EmulateAll to emulate a floating point instruction.
+EmulateAll returns 1 if the emulation was successful, or 0 if not.
+
+4) If an instruction has been emulated successfully, it looks ahead at
+the next instruction.  If it is a floating point instruction, it
+executes the instruction, without returning to user space.  In this
+way it repeatedly looks ahead and executes floating point instructions
+until it encounters a non floating point instruction, at which time it
+returns via _fpreturn.
+
+This is done to reduce the effect of the trap overhead on each
+floating point instructions.  GCC attempts to group floating point
+instructions to allow the emulator to spread the cost of the trap over
+several floating point instructions.  */
