[Mono-dev] [PATCHES] MIPS backend fixes, #3

[Damien Diederen]

Hi,

I have uploaded a third series of patches targeting Mono's MIPS32
backend to GitHub:

    https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/86

Announcements about the first and second series, which have already been
integrated into the master branch, are archived at:

    http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-devel-list/2011-February/036896.html

    http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-devel-list/2011-March/037198.html

With these changes, Mono can run its "corlib" test suite to completion
(4.0 profile), provided the patch below is applied and NotWorkingOnMIPS
is added to the list of excluded categories:

    https://github.com/ztzg/mono/commit/e30621fcde8fc855442d8de3443e19a1d4e89c2a

The results are as follows:

    Tests run: 9081, Failures: 37, Not run: 66, Time: 877.627 seconds

All but seven of these failures are due to missing culture information
and resources (the test DLL was transferred from another environment).

As always, comments/suggestions are more than welcome.

Cheers,
Damien
