[v2,0/2] target/riscv: Add support for Zaamo & Zalrsc

Message

Rob Bradford Jan. 19, 2024, 11:21 a.m. UTC

Introduce support for the proposed new (fast-track) Zaamo and Zalrsc
extensions [1] which represent the AMO and LR/SC subsets of the A
extension.  

The motivation for the subsets being available separately is that
certain classes of CPUs may choose to only implement a subset for
architectural convenience.

Since this extension is not frozen these are advertised by "x-zaamo" and
"x-zalrsc" options. Beyond adding the extension infrastructure the only
changes required are to allow the atomic instructions under either A or
the appropriate subset extension.  To ensure compatibility enabling the
A instruction does not enable these two extensions - future hardware may
choose to advertise support for A and both these extensions for maximum
software support.

This patch is based off riscv-to-apply.next due to conflicts with
existing patches.

Cheers,

Rob
