Subject: [PATCH 0/2] arm64: introduce run-time detection of aarch32 support
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2015 17:41:10 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1441118472-3513-1-git-send-email-ynorov@caviumnetworks.com> (raw)

This is needed to avoid loading aarch32 binaries if COMPAT is enabled, but
aarch32 is not supported by specific platform.

First patch fixes hidden header dependencies in arch/arm64/include/asm/cpufeature.h.
It's not related to the issue, but helps to avoid build failure that happens
if one applies second patch only.

Second patch adds run-time detection of aarch32 support, and rejects kernel to
load such binaries, if not supported.

Tested on ThunderX.
