Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] KVM: arm64: nv: Reduce FP/SVE overhead on exception/exception return
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 09:50:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520085036.541666-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
This is the second version of this short series optimising away a lot
of unnecessary FPSIMD/SVE context switch with NV.
* From v1 [1]:
- New commit message on patch #2 (Mark)
- Additional comments and WARN_ON_ONCE() (Mark)
If nobody screams, I'll stick that into -next.
Thanks,
M.
