[PATCH 0/3] arm64: Open code .arch_extension

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

 



Currently several assembler files override the default architecture to
enable extensions in order to allow them to implement optimised routines
for systems with those extensions. Since inserting BTI landing pads into
assembler functions will require us to change the default architecture we
need a way to enable extensions without hard coding the architecture.
The assembler has the .arch_extension feature but this was introduced
for arm64 in gas 2.26 which is too modern for us to rely on it.

We could just update the base architecture used by these assembler files
but this would mean the assembler would no longer catch attempts to use
newer instructions so instead introduce a macro which sets the default
architecture centrally.  Doing this will also make our use of .arch and
.cpu to select the base architecture more consistent.

Mark Brown (3):
  arm64: asm: Provide macro to control enabling architecture extensions
  arm64: lib: Use ARM64_EXTENSIONS()
  arm64: crypto: Use ARM64_EXTENSIONS()
