Subject: [PATCH 0/2] target/riscv: Cleanup exposed CPU properties
Date: Tue, 17 May 2022 14:10:58 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220517041100.93045-1-alistair.francis@opensource.wdc.com> (raw)
From: Alistair Francis <alistair.francis@wdc.com>
The RISC-V CPUs have been incorrectly enabling features in the named vendor
CPUs that aren't enabled in hardware. This patchset changes this so that
named vendor CPUs are not runtime configurable.
I was torn for the best approach here. The other idea I had was to disable
features by default and instead enable them in CPUs. I ended up going
this approach as I felt it made more sense to not expose configuration
options for vendor CPUs, it just seems difficult to support now that we have
a large list of CPUs

target/riscv: Don't expose the CPU properties on names CPUs
target/riscv: Run extension checks for all CPUs
