Linux kernel source tree
b93e685ecf
The SME ptrace ABI is written around the incorrect assumption that SVE_PT_REGS_FPSIMD and SVE_PT_REGS_SVE are independent bit flags, where it is possible for both to be clear. In reality they are different values for bit 0 of the header flags, where SVE_PT_REGS_FPSIMD is 0 and SVE_PT_REGS_SVE is 1. In cases where code was written expecting that neither bit flag would be set, the value is equivalent to SVE_PT_REGS_FPSIMD. One consequence of this is that reads of the NT_ARM_SVE or NT_ARM_SSVE will erroneously present data from the other mode: * When PSTATE.SM==1, reads of NT_ARM_SVE will present a header with SVE_PT_REGS_FPSIMD, and FPSIMD-formatted data from streaming mode. * When PSTATE.SM==0, reads of NT_ARM_SSVE will present a header with SVE_PT_REGS_FPSIMD, and FPSIMD-formatted data from non-streaming mode. The original intent was that no register data would be provided in these cases, as described in commit: |

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.
