Description
On uni-processor configurations the post-switch actions (e.g. signal handlers) and context switch extensions may silently corrupt the floating point context. Set test sptests/spcontext01.
This problem exists for many years and might be working as intended. It is possible to fix this issue using the SPARC_USE_SAFE_FP_SUPPORT option. This is already used for the SMP configurations. The disadavantage is that this disables the deferred floating point support.
