description |
Observed for example running ffplay to decode H.264 video on Babbage 2.0
This needs to be worked around by a separate kernel image for the affected platforms, or the ability to enable or disable CONFIG_NEON at boot.
Note that the principal problem here is the reporting of neon in the auxv AT_HWCAP word and /proc/cpuinfo which may mislead userspace apps into using NEON.
The NEON context-switching code enabled by CONFIG_NEON should not itself cause problems. |

TEST CASE
=======
1) Download the neon-checker.tar.gz attachment
2) Build this with the following:
$ gcc -g -march=armv7 -mfpu=neon -o neon-check neon-check.s
$ gcc -g -march=armv7 -mfpu=neon -o neon-probe neon-probe.s
3) Run each of neon-check and neon-probe
$ ./neon-check &
$ ./neon-probe &
Result if bug is present:
neon-check will exit immediately with SIGILL or print error messages
Result if bug is addressed:
both programs run without error endlessly
(this can be considered satisfied aftern an hour or so for SRU verification purposes)
