[RFC PATCH 12/13] selftests/powerpc: Add DEXCR status utility lsdexcr

Mon Nov 28 13:44:57 AEDT 2022


Add a utility 'lsdexcr' to print the current DEXCR status. Useful for
quickly checking the status when debugging test failures, using the
sysctl interfaces manually, or just wanting to check it.

Example output:

          Requested: 84000000 (SBHE, NPHIE)
Hypervisor enforced: 00000000
          Effective: 84000000 (SBHE, NPHIE)

        SBHE * (0): set, prctl editable  	(Speculative branch hint enable)
      IBRTPD   (3): clear, prctl editable  	(Indirect branch recurrent target prediction disable)
       SRAPD   (4): clear, prctl editable  	(Subroutine return address prediction disable)
       NPHIE * (5): set  	(Non-privileged hash instruction enable)

Global SBHE override: 1 (set)
