Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] arm64: Support FEAT_LSFE (Large System Float Extension)
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2025 20:21:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250818-arm64-lsfe-v3-0-af6f4d66eb39@kernel.org> (raw)
FEAT_LSFE is optional from v9.5, it adds new instructions for atomic
memory operations with floating point values. We have no immediate use
for it in kernel, provide a hwcap so userspace can discover it and allow
the ID register field to be exposed to KVM guests.
