Subject: [PATCH 03/15] arm64: implement thread identity handoff
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 09:40:53 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911154148.644489-4-axboe@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911154148.644489-1-axboe@kernel.dk>

Implement the arch_thread_handoff_*() hooks and select
ARCH_HAS_THREAD_HANDOFF.

The source is inside a syscall, so only the FPSIMD view of the vector
registers needs to move. Tasks with SME streaming mode or ZA enabled,
compat tasks, tasks with a guarded control stack and tasks trapping
counter-timer access are refused.
