Mark Rutland fbedc599e9 arm64: docs: document pointer authentication
Now that we've added code to support pointer authentication, add some
documentation so that people can figure out if/how to use it.

Suzuki K Poulose 7206dc93a5 arm64: Expose Arm v8.4 features
Expose the new features introduced by Arm v8.4 extensions to
Arm v8-A profile.

These include :

 1) Data indpendent timing of instructions. (DIT, exposed as HWCAP_DIT)
 2) Unaligned atomic instructions and Single-copy atomicity of loads
    and stores. (AT, expose as HWCAP_USCAT)
 3) LDAPR and STLR instructions with immediate offsets (extension to
    LRCPC, exposed as HWCAP_ILRCPC)
 4) Flag manipulation instructions (TS, exposed as HWCAP_FLAGM).

Suzuki K Poulose 847ecd3fa3 arm64: Documentation: cpu-feature-registers: Remove RES0 fields
Remove the invisible RES0 field entries from the table, listing
fields in CPU ID feature registers, as :
 1) We are only interested in the user visible fields.
 2) The field description may not be up-to-date, as the
    field could be assigned a new meaning.
 3) We already explain the rules of the fields which are not
    visible.

Dongjiu Geng 3b3b681097 arm64: v8.4: Support for new floating point multiplication instructions
ARM v8.4 extensions add new neon instructions for performing a
multiplication of each FP16 element of one vector with the corresponding
FP16 element of a second vector, and to add or subtract this without an
intermediate rounding to the corresponding FP32 element in a third vector.

This patch detects this feature and let the userspace know about it via a
HWCAP bit and MRS emulation.

Dave Martin 43994d824e arm64/sve: Detect SVE and activate runtime support
This patch enables detection of hardware SVE support via the
cpufeatures framework, and reports its presence to the kernel and
userspace via the new ARM64_SVE cpucap and HWCAP_SVE hwcap
respectively.

Userspace can also detect SVE using ID_AA64PFR0_EL1, using the
cpufeatures MRS emulation.

When running on hardware that supports SVE, this enables runtime
kernel support for SVE, and allows user tasks to execute SVE
instructions and make of the of the SVE-specific user/kernel
interface extensions implemented by this series.

Suzuki K Poulose f5e035f869 arm64: Expose support for optional ARMv8-A features
ARMv8-A adds a few optional features for ARMv8.2 and ARMv8.3.
Expose them to the userspace via HWCAPs and mrs emulation.

SHA2-512  - Instruction support for SHA512 Hash algorithm (e.g SHA512H,
	    SHA512H2, SHA512U0, SHA512SU1)
SHA3 	  - SHA3 crypto instructions (EOR3, RAX1, XAR, BCAX).
SM3	  - Instruction support for Chinese cryptography algorithm SM3
SM4 	  - Instruction support for Chinese cryptography algorithm SM4
DP	  - Dot Product instructions (UDOT, SDOT).

Robin Murphy 7aac405ebb arm64: Expose DC CVAP to userspace
The ARMv8.2-DCPoP feature introduces persistent memory support to the
architecture, by defining a point of persistence in the memory
hierarchy, and a corresponding cache maintenance operation, DC CVAP.
Expose the support via HWCAP and MRS emulation.
