[PATCH v3 32/42] arm64/sme: Disable streaming mode and ZA when flushing CPU state

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

 



Both streaming mode and ZA may increase power consumption when they are
enabled and streaming mode makes many FPSIMD and SVE instructions undefined
which will cause problems for any kernel mode floating point so disable
both when we flush the CPU state. This covers both kernel_neon_begin() and
idle and after flushing the state a reload is always required anyway.
