    "content": "The EFI runtime services ABI allows EFI to make free use of the\nFPSIMD registers during EFI runtime service calls, subject to the\ncallee-save requirements of the AArch64 procedure call standard.\n\nHowever, the SVE architecture allows upper bits of the SVE vector\nregisters to be zeroed as a side-effect of FPSIMD V-register\nwrites.  This means that the SVE vector registers must be saved in\ntheir entirety in order to avoid data loss: non-SVE-aware EFI\nimplementations cannot restore them correctly.\n\nThe non-IRQ case is already handled gracefully by\nkernel_neon_begin().  For the IRQ case, this patch allocates a\nsuitable per-CPU stash buffer for the full SVE register state and\nuses it to preserve the affected registers around EFI calls.  It is\ncurrently unclear how the EFI runtime services ABI will be\nclarified with respect to SVE, so it safest to assume that the\npredicate registers and FFR must be saved and restored too.\n\nNo attempt is made to restore the restore the vector length after\na call, for now.  It is deemed rather insane for EFI to change it,\nand contemporary EFI implementations certainly won't.\n\nSigned-off-by: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com>\nCc: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>\n\n---\n\nChanges since v1\n----------------\n\nRequested by Ard Biesheuvel:\n\n* Fix unbalanced ifelse bracing to conform to the kernel coding style.\n\n* Make efi_sve_state_used static.\n\nChanges related to Alex Bennée's comments:\n\n* Migrate away from magic numbers for SVE_VQ_BYTES.\n\nOther:\n\n* Rename sve_kernel_mode_neon_setup() to sve_efi_setup().\nThe EFI FPSIMD code is something semi-independent from kernel-mode NEON\nnow, so the \"neon\" in the names no longer really makes sense.\n\n* Make the EFI FPSIMD setup code dependent on CONFIG_EFI (it's not\nsupposed to work with CONFIG_EFI=n anyway).\n---\n arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c | 60 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----\n 1 file changed, 54 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)",
