For this reason, the best choice depends on the repertoire of userspace software in use and is thus best left up to distro maintainers, sysadmins and developers. If CONFIG_SYSCTL and CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL are enabled, this patch exposes the default vector length in /proc/sys/abi/sve_default_vector_length, where boot scripts or the adventurous can poke it. In common with other arm64 ABI sysctls, this control is currently global: setting it requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the root user namespace, but the value set is effective for subsequent execs in all namespaces. The control only affects _new_ processes, however: changing it does not affect the vector length of any existing process. The intended usage model is that if userspace is known to be fully SVE-tolerant (or a developer is curious to find out) then this parameter can be cranked up during system startup.
