Armv8.7 introduces single-copy atomic 64-byte loads and stores
instructions and its variants named under FEAT_{LS64, LS64_V}.
These features are identified by ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.LS64 and the
use of such instructions in userspace (EL0) can be trapped.
As st64bv (FEAT_LS64_V) and st64bv0 (FEAT_LS64_ACCDATA) can not be tell
apart, FEAT_LS64 and FEAT_LS64_ACCDATA which will be supported in later
patch will be exported to userspace, FEAT_LS64_V will be enabled only
in kernel.
In order to support the use of corresponding instructions in userspace:
- Make ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.LS64 visbile to userspace
- Add identifying and enabling in the cpufeature list
- Expose these support of these features to userspace through HWCAP3
and cpuinfo
ld64b/st64b (FEAT_LS64) and st64bv (FEAT_LS64_V) is intended for
special memory (device memory) so requires support by the CPU, system
and target memory location (device that support these instructions).
The HWCAP3_LS64, implies the support of CPU and system (since no
identification method from system, so SoC vendors should advertise
support in the CPU if system also support them).
Otherwise for ld64b/st64b the atomicity may not be guaranteed or a
DABT will be generated, so users (probably userspace driver developer)
should make sure the target memory (device) also have the support.
For st64bv 0xffffffffffffffff will be returned as status result for
unsupported memory so user should check it.
Document the restrictions along with HWCAP3_LS64.
