Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Use symbolic constants for the ccmp NZCV immediates
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 08:21:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261009072147.474952-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
The ccmp instructions in the EL2 setup code, reset_pmuserenr_el0 and
the hyp vectors give the flags to set when their condition fails as a
raw NZCV immediate, #4 or #8. Which condition that leaves true for the
branch that follows has to be worked out from the pseudocode each time.
Define CCMP_NZCV_EQ and CCMP_NZCV_LT from the PSR bits, named for the
condition each leaves true, and pass those instead.
No functional change intended.
