Subject: [PATCH 03/18] arm64: elf: advertise 8.1 atomic instructions as new hwcap
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 10:25:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436779519-2232-4-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1436779519-2232-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com>

The ARM v8.1 architecture introduces new atomic instructions to the A64
instruction set for things like cmpxchg, so advertise their availability
to userspace using a hwcap.
