[PATCH v3 0/4] aarch64: Allow overriding HWCAP_CPUID feature check


Hi,

Here is another take at the remaining patches to allow overriding HWCAP_CPUID
feature check.  Changes from the previous version:

 - Added convenience macro to get dl_hwcap_mask
 - Disable reading LD_HWCAP_MASK in static binaries when tunables are disabled
 - Enable reading LD_HWCAP_MASK in static binaries when tunables are enabled
 - Fix x86 exponential behaviour with ld_hwcap_mask set to a high value on
   static binaries
 - Add patch to write hwcap strings to LD_SHOW_AUXV and for ldconfig

I have not reposted the earlier 1/5, 2/5 and 4/5 since they have been acked.
I'll push them in together with all these patches since it did not make sense to
put them in isolation.

Tested on x86_64 and aarch64.


Siddhesh Poyarekar (4):
  tunables: Use glibc.tune.hwcap_mask tunable instead of _dl_hwcap_mask
  aarch64: Allow overriding HWCAP_CPUID feature check using HWCAP_MASK
  Make LD_HWCAP_MASK usable for static binaries
  aarch64: Add hwcap string routines
