ReadTaskContext SPE specifc registers

Post by migthymax »

Hi all here,

I'm currently trying/in progress to port a newer version of the gdb. In this process I say that gdb has support to read SPE specific register.
Reading the current public AutoDocs it doesn't seem that these can be queried with ReadTaskContext.
But now having the Tabor/A1222+ in hands or normal users, is there a plan to update the SDK to support SPE specific stuff, like reading the registers?

Kind regards

Max

Just to have answer for my question, i figured it out by myself.

The SPE doesn't have an specific registers like a FPU. The SPE just uses the already present general registers.
Thus no there is no need to have any changed to ReadTaskContext
