--- Comment #9 from ahashmi <assad.has...@linaro.org> --- Thanks for the SIGILL warning. I forgot the erratum/kernel dependencies! I don't know how often that's an issue in practical terms but it's best to be safe. Alex Benee also pointed me to the MRS CPU features register method when reviewing https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=413547 for the reason that you don't have to rely on the latest libc to ship if there's a lag in s/w support for new h/w. However, in recent practice it appears that by the time new Arm h/w becomes available, s/w support is up-to-date. Which brings me back to the question I asked in a previous posting: why not just use getauxval(), especially if you know the kernel, compiler and libraries support the features you're checking for and implementing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
