Bug with division in MIPS interpreter

roganov opened this issue · comments

addi $t0, $0, 1
addi $t1, $0, 2
div $t0, $t1   # HI register must be 1
add $t0, $0, $0
mfhi $v0 # but actualy it's 0 ($v0 === 0)

If we comment out last but one line:

addi $t0, $0, 1
addi $t1, $0, 2
div $t0, $t1   # HI register must be 1
# add $t0, $0, $0
mfhi $v0 # $v0 == 1

it works as expected.
