There was an issue revealed in gdb testing where C++ virtual tables
were not getting properly initialized. This seems to be due to the
c++ global constructors moving from ctors to init_array.
This fix makes sure we call the proper method for initializing the
constructors in all places.
Allow exceptions to be nested, which is especially useful with urgent
interrupts while processing an exception.
The implementation counts up the nesting level with each call to an
exception. In the outer exception (level 1), the exception stack is
started. All nested exceptions just reserve the redzone (scratch
memory that may be used by compiler) and exception context on the
stack, but then process on the same scratch.
Restriction: Impure pointers are shared among all exceptions. This may
be solved by creating an impure data structure in the stack frame with
each nested exception.
* or1k/crt0.S: Add exception nesting
* or1k/exceptions-asm.S: ditto
* or1k/util.c: ditto
- We do not need a red zone here, as we do not operate on the current
stack, but always use the clear exception stack. Also reserve two
extra words for the context to store EPCR and ESR.
* or1k/crt0.S: Fix exception stack frame
* or1k/exception-asm.S: ditto
