Hi All,
Please review the patch-set that adds the functionality in RMM to manage Scalable Matrix Extension (SME) context. If the CPU supports SME and if Realm accesses FPU/SVE functionality then NS SME state is saved to allow Realm to use FPU/SVE register state. https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22rmm_sme%22+(status:open%20OR%2...)
Brief summary of changes made in different components:
RMM: - Introduces SIMD context and exports APIs to the runtime component of RMM to initialize, save, restore, and switch SIMD context. - Adds SME support in RMM to manage NS SME context. Supports SVE+SME config and SME only config. - Handles SVE hint bit passed in RMI SMCs - Handles SME exceptions from Realms https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22rmm_sme%22+(status:open%20OR%2...
TF-A: - Enables FEAT_SME for RMM - Passes SMCCCv1.3 SVE hint bit in SMC function ID to RMM
tf-a-tests: - There are changes in common lib routines for sve, sme so that testcases running in NS-EL2, S-EL1, R-EL1 can use these helper routines. - Adds helper routines to read, write, compare FPU and SVE Z, P, FFR registers - Adds SMCCCv1.3 SVE hint bit support in TFTF framework - Enables SME/SME2 during arch init - Adds SME helper routines and extends SVE lib routines to support streaming SVE mode. https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22rmm_sme%22+(status:open%20OR%2...
