Supported legacy instructions
-----------------------------
* SWP{B}
Node: /proc/sys/abi/cp15_barrier
Status: Deprecated
Default: Emulate (1)
+
+* SETEND
+Node: /proc/sys/abi/setend
+Status: Deprecated
+Default: Emulate (1)*
+Note: All the cpus on the system must have mixed endian support at EL0
+for this feature to be enabled. If a new CPU - which doesn't support mixed
+endian - is hotplugged in after this feature has been enabled, there could
+be unexpected results in the application.
If unsure, say Y
+config SETEND_EMULATION
+ bool "Emulate SETEND instruction"
+ help
+ The SETEND instruction alters the data-endianness of the
+ AArch32 EL0, and is deprecated in ARMv8.
+
+ Say Y here to enable software emulation of the instruction
+ for AArch32 userspace code.
+
+ Note: All the cpus on the system must have mixed endian support at EL0
