Merge patch series "Add support to handle misaligned accesses in S-mode"
Clément Léger <cleger@rivosinc.com> says:
Since commit 61cadb9 ("Provide new description of misaligned load/store
behavior compatible with privileged architecture.") in the RISC-V ISA
manual, it is stated that misaligned load/store might not be supported.
However, the RISC-V kernel uABI describes that misaligned accesses are
supported. In order to support that, this series adds support for S-mode
handling of misaligned accesses as well support for prctl(PR_UNALIGN).
Handling misaligned access in kernel allows for a finer grain control
of the misaligned accesses behavior, and thanks to the prctl() call,
can allow disabling misaligned access emulation to generate SIGBUS. User
space can then optimize its software by removing such access based on
SIGBUS generation.
This series is useful when using a SBI implementation that does not
handle misaligned traps as well as detecting misaligned accesses
generated by userspace application using the prctrl(PR_SET_UNALIGN)
feature.
This series can be tested using the spike simulator[1] and a modified
openSBI version[2] which allows to always delegate misaligned load/store to
S-mode. A test[3] that exercise various instructions/registers can be
executed to verify the unaligned access support.
