However, the recommended way to select vector lengths is to explicitly enable each desired length. Therefore only example's (1), (4), and (6) exhibit recommended uses of the properties. +SVE User-mode Default Vector Length Property +-------------------------------------------- + +For qemu-aarch64, the cpu property ``sve-default-vector-length=N`` is +defined to mirror the Linux kernel parameter file +``/proc/sys/abi/sve_default_vector_length``. The default length, ``N``, +is in units of bytes and must be between 16 and 8192. +If not specified, the default vector length is 64. + +If the default length is larger than the maximum vector length enabled, +the actual vector length will be reduced. Note that the maximum vector +length supported by QEMU is 256. + +If this property is set to ``-1`` then the default vector length +is set to the maximum possible length. |
