Subject: [PATCH] [AArch64] Expose the BTI BTYPE more explicitly in the registers
Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2021 10:05:21 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211117130521.2034729-1-luis.machado@linaro.org> (raw)

Augment the register description XML to expose the BTI BTYPE field contained
in the CPSR register. It will be displayed like so:

cpsr           0x60001000          [ EL=0 BTYPE=0 SSBS C Z ]
