Merge patch series "RISC-V: Test th.sxstatus.MAEE bit before enabling MAEE"
Christoph Müllner <[email protected]> says:
Currently, the Linux kernel suffers from a boot regression when running
on the c906 QEMU emulation. Details have been reported here by Björn Töpel:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2024-01/msg04766.html
The main issue is, that Linux enables XTheadMae for CPUs that have a T-Head
mvendorid but QEMU maintainers don't want to emulate a CPU that uses
reserved bits in PTEs. See also the following discussion for more
context:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2024-02/msg00775.html
This series renames "T-Head PBMT" to "MAE"/"XTheadMae" and only enables
it if the th.sxstatus.MAEE bit is set.
The th.sxstatus CSR is documented here:
https://github.com/T-head-Semi/thead-extension-spec/blob/master/xtheadsxstatus.adoc
XTheadMae is documented here:
https://github.com/T-head-Semi/thead-extension-spec/blob/master/xtheadmae.adoc
The QEMU patch to emulate th.sxstatus with the MAEE bit not set is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
After applying the referenced QEMU patch, this patchset allows to
successfully boot a C906 QEMU system emulation ("-cpu thead-c906").
