* Documentation: RISC-V: uabi: Only scalar misaligned loads are supportedPalmer Dabbelt2 days1-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | We're stuck supporting scalar misaligned loads in userspace because they were part of the ISA at the time we froze the uABI. That wasn't the case for vector misaligned accesses, so depending on them unconditionally is a userspace bug. All extant vector hardware traps on these misaligned accesses.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell. This is unfortunate and unnecessary. Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True). This also makes the code shorter. This is analogous to commit 3231dd586277 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce the first flag for the hwprobe syscall. The flag basically reverses its behavior, i.e. instead of populating the values of keys for a given set of cpus, the set of cpus after the call is the result of finding a set which supports the values of the keys. In order to do this, we implement a pair compare function which takes the type of value (a single value vs. a bitmask of booleans) into consideration. We also implement vdso support for the new flag.

| * | RISC-V: hwprobe: Clarify cpus size parameterAndrew Jones2024-01-031-7/+8
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "count" parameter associated with the 'cpus' parameter of the hwprobe syscall is the size in bytes of 'cpus'. Naming it 'cpu_count' may mislead users (it did me) to think it's the number of CPUs that are or can be represented by 'cpus' instead. This is particularly easy (IMO) to get wrong since 'cpus' is documented to be defined by CPU_SET(3) and CPU_SET(3) also documents a CPU_COUNT() (the number of CPUs in set) macro. CPU_SET(3) refers to the size of cpu sets with 'setsize'. Adopt 'cpusetsize' for the hwprobe parameter and specifically state it is in bytes in Documentation/riscv/hwprobe.rst to clarify.
