Hi Gabe,

the instruction at address 0x10b194 is movg, but it is using a FP state
register:

movg  %fcc3, 0, %g1

I was taking a look at the decoder implementation, and it seems the
simulation stops when the following function is executed:

inline Movccfcc::Movccfcc(ExtMachInst machInst)
: Trap("movccfcc", machInst, IntAluOp)
{

 _numSrcRegs = 0;
 _numDestRegs = 0;
 _numFPDestRegs = 0;
 _numIntDestRegs = 0;;
}

I don't know much about the SPARC ISA, so any help would be appreciated.

I'm using the stable version of m5, and a SPARC_SE platform.
The MPGenc from ALPBench was cross-compiled with gcc-4.5.0, binutils-2.20.1
and glibc-2.3.6.

Thanks.
