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
