27 * The hal_do_switch() function is an assembly level code called by the
28 * hal_cpu_context_switch() function to make the actual context swich.
29 * The hal_cpu_context_t structure used to store a core context is defined
30 * in the TSAR specific hal_context.c file.
31 * The following core registers are saved in the old context & and restored
32 * from the new context:
33 * - GPR : all, but (zero, k0, k1), plus (hi, lo)
34 * - CP0 : c0_th , c0_sr
35 * - CP2 : c2_ptpr , C2_mode, C2_epc
36 * When the switch is completed, it jumps to address contained in register $31
37 * of the new context.
38 *************************************************************************************
39 * @ ctx_old  : local pointer on the old thread context.
40 * @ ctx_new  : local pointer on the new thread context.
