Public bug reported:
valgrind fails on Ubuntu 15.10 Wily when debugging threaded
applicatoins. The issue is the TM instructions in the pthread lock
elision code:
dis_proc_ctl(ppc)(mfspr,SPR)(0x83)
disInstr(ppc): unhandled instruction: 0x7D2322A6
primary 31(0x1F), secondary 678(0x2A6)

==94927== Your program just tried to execute an instruction that Valgrind
==94927== did not recognise. There are two possible reasons for this.
==94927== 1. Your program has a bug and erroneously jumped to a non-code
==94927== location. If you are running Memcheck and you just saw a
==94927== warning about a bad jump, it's probably your program's fault.
==94927== 2. The instruction is legitimate but Valgrind doesn't handle it,
==94927== i.e. it's Valgrind's fault. If you think this is the case or
==94927== you are not sure, please let us know and we'll try to fix it.
==94927== Either way, Valgrind will now raise a SIGILL signal which will
==94927== probably kill your program.

The instruction hex code for the unhandled instruction is 7D2322A6. You say it
is a Transactional Memory instruction (TM). The format of the TM instructions
has a primary opcode of 31, which matches your instruction.
The secondary instruction identifier for the TM instruction is in bits 21:30
which for you instruction is 0x153 = 339 decimal, assuming I didn't screw it up.
Looking at the Power ISA v2.07 I find the following TM instructions and
corresponding secondary identifiers:
tbegin. 654
tend. 686
tabort. 910
tabortwc. 782
tabortwci. 846
tabortdci. 878
tsr. 750
tcheck 718
I am not seeing a TM instruction with a secondary identifier of 339.
I did find the move instruction mfspr RT,SPR which has a primary opcode
of 31 and a secondary opcode of 339. The spr number is in bits 11:20
which is 0x245 = 581 decimal. Figure 17 in the ISA 2.07, page 881 does
not list an SPR of 581.
The registers used with the TM instructions and spr numbers are:
TFHAR 128
TFIAR 129
TEXASR 130
TEXASRU 121
So, this doesn't seem to match either.
Can you send me the assembly code for the instruction so I can figure
out which TM instruction it is? Thanks for the help.

That message comes out of the default case when handling the mfspr
register number.
looks like valgrind in Wily is missing this patch:

Add support for the TEXASRU register.
