This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled powerpc: Add AT_HWCAP2 to indicate V.CRYPTO category support to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 46d42cda06a35b738d2d4c49450b69ce06b27d81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2014 15:04:40 +1000 Subject: powerpc: Add AT_HWCAP2 to indicate V.CRYPTO category support commit dd58a092c4202f2bd490adab7285b3ff77f8e467 upstream. The Vector Crypto category instructions are supported by current POWER8 chips, advertise them to userspace using a specific bit to properly differentiate with chips of the same architecture level that might not have them.
