Subject: [PATCH 04/10] arm64: mops: document boot requirements for MOPS
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2023 16:00:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230216160012.272345-5-kristina.martsenko@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230216160012.272345-1-kristina.martsenko@arm.com>

FEAT_MOPS introduces new instructions, we require that these
instructions not execute as UNDEFINED when we identify that the feature
is supported. Additionally, the instructions may generate a Memory Copy
or Memory Set exception, we require that the exception be taken to EL1
in case EL2 is not able to correctly handle it.
