ThreadX Context Save/Restore of Floating Point Registers for Cortex-R5
Opened this issue · 2 comments
I'm working on setting up ThreadX with Cortex-R5F on Xilinx Ultrascale+ R5F. I've noticed some data corruption associated with using floating point registers on memcpy and now looking at _tx_thread_context_save for R5 port, it seems like it doesn't save context floating point registers.
There are some references to VFP support on other processor ports but isn't much documentation to go off.
Is it possible to use hard floating point math on R5 with ThreadX?
Some of the other ARM ports seem to have support for using TX_ENABLE_VFP_SUPPORT then using tx_thread_vfp_enable to enable it, but the R5 is missing is the extension define here:

Like for the A9:
