From fea10622c25d5ff26702a86007bcd517b3c455b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Rutland Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2024 16:42:20 +0000 Subject: arm64: Kconfig: Make SME depend on BROKEN for now commit 81235ae0c846e1fb46a2c6fe9283fe2b2b24f7dc upstream. Although support for SME was merged in v5.19, we've since uncovered a number of issues with the implementation, including issues which might corrupt the FPSIMD/SVE/SME state of arbitrary tasks. While there are patches to address some of these issues, ongoing review has highlighted additional functional problems, and more time is necessary to analyse and fix these. For now, mark SME as BROKEN in the hope that we can fix things properly in the near future. As SME is an OPTIONAL part of ARMv9.2+, and there is very little extant hardware, this should not adversely affect the vast majority of users.
