Nit: ^ also still not used? (I think you caught <asm/ptrace.h> already.)

(Hmm, there must be a tool for weeding #includes somewhere...)

Same from here up to the fclose().


Although this looks like it might have been based on code I wrote
previously(?), I guess it might be better to move all the
post-child-exit code out of the loop, since it really only executes
once, and any mishap is treated as fatal anyway.  It looks kind of
weird to have close() in the loop (even if hidden now in fclose())
with pipe() outside.

There's only one child anyway, and we treat !WIFEXITED() as an error
(without WUNTRACED or similar and since we are not a tracer,
WIFSIGNALED is the only other possbility IIUC.)

Is it still worth slurping the newline here?  That's the only way to
tell the difference between complete line and truncation of the stream.

The "%d%*1[\n]*n" trick from my previous reply would probably work for
that.  Or maybe just checking for the '\n' with an fgetc() after the
fscanf() would work.  I don't remember offhand whether scanf is allowed
to silently consume trailing whitespace after a conversion, which would
be a problem for the fgetc() approach.  Maybe not though.

OTOH this is a pipe, and with my suggestion on the sve-rdvl patch,
the child should report nonzero exit status if something goes wrong on
its end.  So there's not a lot that can actually go wrong that we
wouldn't detect somehow.

Either way, this still looks a lot like file_read_integer() and the
error detection discussion applies to both.

Could the code be factored out as

int ffile_read_integer(int *val, FILE *f) {
	...
}

int file_read_integer(const char *name, int val) {
	fopen() ... ffile_read_integer() ... fclose()
}

This can be static const too come to think of it, and every function
except main() can be static...

Did we commit to never defining hwcaps beyond bit 31?  It sort of looks
this way from arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/hwcap.h, but I can't remember
the reason.  I'd say something to do with compat, only of course that
has its own hwcaps.

Since getauxval() returns an unsigned long, would it be a good idea to
make this:

		int supported = (getauxval(data->hwcap_type) & data->hwcap) != 0;

or

		unsigned long supported_hwcaps = getauxval(data->hwcap_type);

		/* ... */

			if (supported_hwcaps & data->hwcap)

just to avoid future surprises?

[...]
