[PATCH v5 1/8] riscv: vector: add a comment when calling riscv_setup_vsize()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function would fail when it detects the calling hart's vlen doesn't
match the first one's. The boot hart is the first hart calling this
function during riscv_fill_hwcap, so it is impossible to fail here. Add
a comment about this behavior.
