Subject: [PATCH 3/3] tso: aarch64: allow userspace to set tso bit using prctl
Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2024 14:16:41 -0700
Message-id: <20240410211652.16640-4-zayd_qumsieh@apple.com>
In-reply-to: <20240410211652.16640-1-zayd_qumsieh@apple.com>
References: <20240410211652.16640-1-zayd_qumsieh@apple.com>

Add a new prctl to allow userspace to change the TSO bit. This is
useful for emulators that recompile x86_64 to ARM64. Such programs used
to need to emulate TSO by hand, which has massive performance
ramifications. With this change, emulators can now use prctl to set the
TSO bit at will, and avoid emulating TSO.
