The last one just removes the now redundant crc32 SIMD driver, and Herbert could pick that up separately, i.e., it should be totally independent. >> #endif /* __ASM_CPUCAPS_H */ >> diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c >> index e238b7932096..7626b80128f5 100644 >> --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c >> +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c >> @@ -1222,6 +1222,15 @@ static const struct arm64_cpu_capabilities arm64_features[] = { >> .cpu_enable = cpu_enable_hw_dbm, >> }, >> #endif >> + { >> + .desc = "CRC32 instructions", >> + .capability = ARM64_HAS_CRC32, >> + .type = ARM64_CPUCAP_SYSTEM_FEATURE, >> + .matches = has_cpuid_feature, >> + .sys_reg = SYS_ID_AA64ISAR0_EL1, >> + .field_pos = ID_AA64ISAR0_CRC32_SHIFT, >> + .min_field_value = 1, >> + }, >> {}, >> }; >> >> -- >> 2.18.0 >>
