+
+68060 FLOATING-POINT SOFTWARE PACKAGE (Library version)
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+The file fplsp.sa contains the "Library version" of the
+68060SP Floating-Point Software Package. The routines
+included in this module can be used to emulate the
+FP instructions not implemented in 68060 hardware. These
+instructions normally take exception vector #11
+"FP Unimplemented Instruction".
+
+By re-compiling a program that uses these instructions, and
+making subroutine calls in place of the unimplemented
+instructions, a program can avoid the overhead associated
+with taking the exception.
+
+Release file format:
+--------------------
+The file fplsp.sa is essentially a hexadecimal image of the
+release package. This is the ONLY format which will be supported.
+The hex image was created by assembling the source code and
+then converting the resulting binary output image into an
+ASCII text file. The hexadecimal numbers are listed
+using the Motorola Assembly Syntax assembler directive "dc.l"
+(define constant longword). The file can be converted to other
+assembly syntaxes by using any word processor with a global
+search and replace function.
+
+To assist in assembling and linking this module with other modules,
+the installer should add a symbolic label to the top of the file.
+This will allow calling routines to access the entry points
+of this package.
+
+The source code fplsp.s has also been included but only for
+documentation purposes.
+
+Release file structure:
+-----------------------
+The file fplsp.sa contains an "Entry-Point" section and a
+code section. The FPLSP has no "Call-Out" section. The first section
+is the "Entry-Point" section. In order to access a function in the
+package, a program must "bsr" or "jsr" to the location listed
+below in "68060FPLSP entry points" that corresponds to the desired
+function. A branch instruction located at the selected entry point
+within the package will then enter the correct emulation code routine.
+
+The entry point addresses at the beginning of the package will remain
+fixed so that a program calling the routines will not have to be
+re-compiled with every new 68060FPLSP release.
+
+There are 3 entry-points for each instruction type: single precision,
+double precision, and extended precision.
+
+As an example, the "fsin" library instruction can be passed an
+extended precision operand if program executes:
+
+# fsin.x fp0
+
+ fmovm.x &0x01,-(%sp) # pass operand on stack
+ bsr.l _060FPLSP_TOP+0x1a8 # branch to fsin routine
+ add.l &0xc,%sp # clear operand from stack
+
+Upon return, fp0 holds the correct result. The FPSR is
+set correctly. The FPCR is unchanged. The FPIAR is undefined.
+
+Another example. This time, a dyadic operation:
+
+# frem.s %fp1,%fp0
+
+ fmov.s %fp1,-(%sp) # pass src operand
+ fmov.s %fp0,-(%sp) # pass dst operand
+ bsr.l _060FPLSP_TOP+0x168 # branch to frem routine
+ addq.l &0x8,%sp # clear operands from stack
+
+Again, the result is returned in fp0. Note that BOTH operands
+are passed in single precision format.
+
+Exception reporting:
+--------------------
+The package takes exceptions according to the FPCR value upon subroutine
+entry. If an exception should be reported, then the package forces
+this exception using implemented floating-point instructions.
+For example, if the instruction being emulated should cause a
+floating-point Operand Error exception, then the library routine
+executes an FMUL of a zero and an infinity to force the OPERR
+exception. Although the FPIAR will be undefined for the enabled
+Operand Error exception handler, the user will at least be able
+to record that the event occurred.
+
+Miscellaneous:
+--------------
+The package does not attempt to correctly emulate instructions
+with Signalling NAN inputs. Use of SNANs should be avoided with
+this package.
+
+The fabs/fadd/fdiv/fint/fintrz/fmul/fneg/fsqrt/fsub entry points
+are provided for the convenience of older compilers that make
+subroutine calls for all fp instructions. The code does NOT emulate
+the instruction but rather simply executes it.
