Andy Chiu <andy.chiu@sifive.com> says: The series composes of two parts. The first part Specifically, patch 1 adds a comment at a callsite of riscv_setup_vsize to clarify how vlenb is observed by the system. Patch 2 fixes the issue by failing the boot process of a secondary core if vlenb mismatches. Here is the organization of the series: - Patch 1, 2 provide a fix for mismatching vlen problem [1]. The solution is to fail secondary cores if their vlenb is not the same as the boot core. - Patch 3 is a cleanup for introducing ZVE* Vector subextensions. It gives the obsolete ISA parser the ability to expand ISA extensions for sigle letter extensions. - Patch 4, 5, 6 introduce Zve32x, Zve32f, Zve64x, Zve64f, Zve64d for isa parsing and hwprobe, and document about it. - Patch 7 makes has_vector() check against ZVE32X instead of V, so most userspace Vector supports will be available for bare ZVE32X. - Patch 8 updates the prctl test so that it runs on ZVE32X. The series is tested on a QEMU and verified that booting, Vector programs context-switch, signal, ptrace, prctl interfaces works when we only report partial V from the ISA. * b4-shazam-lts: selftest: run vector prctl test for ZVE32X riscv: vector: adjust minimum Vector requirement to ZVE32X riscv: hwprobe: add zve Vector subextensions into hwprobe interface riscv: cpufeature: add zve32[xf] and zve64[xfd] isa detection dt-bindings: riscv: add Zve32[xf] Zve64[xfd] ISA extension description riscv: cpufeature: call match_isa_ext() for single-letter extensions riscv: vector: add a comment when calling riscv_setup_vsize() riscv: smp: fail booting up smp if inconsistent vlen is detected [Palmer: reorder the first two patches so I can merge the fix, and rebase this on v6.10-rc1 so it's a little easier to manage.] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240510-zve-detection-v5-0-0711bdd26c12@sifive.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
