Dave Martin Oct. 27, 2017, 10:51 a.m. UTC
  This patch adds two arm64-specific prctls, to permit userspace to
control its vector length:

 * PR_SVE_SET_VL: set the thread's SVE vector length and vector
   length inheritance mode.

 * PR_SVE_GET_VL: get the same information.

Although these prctls resemble instruction set features in the SVE
architecture, they provide additional control: the vector length
inheritance mode is Linux-specific and nothing to do with the
architecture, and the architecture does not permit EL0 to set its
own vector length directly.  Both can be used in portable tools
without requiring the use of SVE instructions.

FYI there is a minor conflict applying this on current master.

There are some trivial conflicts with one or two patches that already
went into arm64/for-next/core, so I based on that for this posting, not
torvalds/master.

There's a note in the cover letter giving the precise commit I based
on, though the branch doesn't seem to have moved yet since I posted.

Otherwise, I don't see any conflict -- can you give details?

Cheers
---Dave

Ahh probably those. It was only a few header file shuffles. I was
rushing to apply before my flight back I failed to note the change in
base commit.

Only that #endif _ASM_ had been dropped from the header file.

The #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ ... #endif is added by another in-flight patch,
so it depends on whether that patch (from arm64/for-next/core) is already
applied.
