2017-08-09arm64: Expose DC CVAP to userspaceRobin Murphy1-0/+2
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.

2017-03-20arm64: v8.3: Support for weaker release consistencySuzuki K Poulose1-0/+2
ARMv8.3 adds new instructions to support Release Consistent processor consistent (RCpc) model, which is weaker than the RCsc model. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2017-03-20arm64: v8.3: Support for complex number instructionsSuzuki K Poulose1-0/+2
ARM v8.3 adds support for new instructions to aid floating-point multiplication and addition of complex numbers. Expose the support via HWCAP and MRS emulation Signed-off-by: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2017-03-20arm64: v8.3: Support for Javascript conversion instructionSuzuki K Poulose1-0/+8
ARMv8.3 adds support for a new instruction to perform conversion from double precision floating point to integer to match the architected behaviour of the equivalent Javascript conversion. Expose the availability via HWCAP and MRS emulation. Signed-off-by: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
