Subject: [PATCH v1 4/5] arm64: cpufeature: Test 'matches' pointer to find the end of the list
Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2016 17:03:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1454432611-21333-5-git-send-email-james.morse@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1454432611-21333-1-git-send-email-james.morse@arm.com>
CPU feature code uses the desc field as a test to find the end of the list,
this means every entry must have a description. This generates noise for
entries in the list that aren't really features, but combinations of them.
e.g.
> CPU features: detected feature: Privileged Access Never
> CPU features: detected feature: PAN and not UAO
These combination features are needed for corner cases with alternatives,
where cpu features interact.
Change all walkers of the arm64_features[] and arm64_hwcaps[] lists to test
'matches' not 'desc', and only print 'desc' if it is non-NULL.
