+68060 FLOATING-POINT SOFTWARE PACKAGE (Kernel version)
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+The file fpsp.sa contains the 68060 Floating-Point Software
+Package. This package is essentially a set of exception handlers
+that can be integrated into an operating system.
+These exception handlers emulate Unimplemented FP instructions,
+instructions using unimplemented data types, and instructions
+using unimplemented addressing modes. In addition, this package
+includes exception handlers to provide full IEEE-754 compliant
+exception handling.
+
+Release file format:
+--------------------
+The file fpsp.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 fpsp.s has also been included but only for
+documentation purposes.
+
+Release file structure:
+-----------------------
+
+(top of module)
+ -----------------
+ | | - 128 byte-sized section
+ (1) | Call-Out | - 4 bytes per entry (user fills these in)
+ | | - example routines in fskeleton.s
+ -----------------
+ | | - 8 bytes per entry
+ (2) | Entry Point | - user does "bra" or "jmp" to this address
+ | |
+ -----------------
+ | | - code section
+ (3) ~ ~
+ | |
+ -----------------
+(bottom of module)
+
+The first section of this module is the "Call-out" section. This section
+is NOT INCLUDED in fpsp.sa (an example "Call-out" section is provided at
+the end of the file fskeleton.s). The purpose of this section is to allow
+the FPSP routines to reference external functions that must be provided
+by the host operating system. This section MUST be exactly 128 bytes in
+size. There are 32 fields, each 4 bytes in size. Each field corresponds
+to a function required by the FPSP (these functions and their location are
+listed in "68060FPSP call-outs" below). Each field entry should contain
+the address of the corresponding function RELATIVE to the starting address
+of the "call-out" section. The "Call-out" section must sit adjacent to the
+fpsp.sa image in memory.
+
+The second section, the "Entry-point" section, is used by external routines
+to access the functions within the FPSP. Since the fpsp.sa hex file contains
+no symbol names, this section contains function entry points that are fixed
+with respect to the top of the package. The currently defined entry-points
+are listed in section "68060 FPSP entry points" below. A calling routine
+would simply execute a "bra" or "jmp" that jumped to the selected function
+entry-point.
+
+For example, if the 68060 hardware took a "Line-F Emulator" exception
+(vector #11), the operating system should execute something similar to:
+
+ bra _060FPSP_TOP+128+48
+
+(_060FPSP_TOP is the starting address of the "Call-out" section; the "Call-out"
+section is 128 bytes long; and the F-Line FPSP handler entry point is located
+48 bytes from the top of the "Entry-point" section.)
+
+The third section is the code section. After entering through an "Entry-point",
+the entry code jumps to the appropriate emulation code within the code section.
