[v4, 1/6] riscv: Add support for kernel mode vector

Andy Chiu andy.chiu at sifive.com
Wed Dec 13 05:13:16 PST 2023


From: Greentime Hu <greentime.hu at sifive.com>

Add kernel_vector_begin() and kernel_vector_end() function declarations
and corresponding definitions in kernel_mode_vector.c

These are needed to wrap uses of vector in kernel mode.

Changelog v4:
 - Use kernel_v_flags and helpers to track vector context. Thus remove
   A-b from Cornor.
Changelog v3:
 - Reorder patch 1 to patch 3 to make use of
   {get,put}_cpu_vector_context later.
 - Export {get,put}_cpu_vector_context.
 - Save V context after disabling preemption. (Guo)
 - Fix a build fail. (Conor)
 - Remove irqs_disabled() check as it is not needed, fix styling. (Björn)
Changelog v2:
 - 's/kernel_rvv/kernel_vector' and return void in kernel_vector_begin
   (Conor)
 - export may_use_simd to include/asm/simd.h
