Re: [PATCH v8 00/20] ILP32 for ARM64

Hi Catalin, all

(Exclude Bamvor as his email became invalid)

This is 4.15-based kernel.
https://github.com/norov/linux/commits/ilp32-4.15

I tested it with LTP, no regressions found.

Kernel v4.15 incorporates SVE series from Dave Martin, so I updated ILP32
patches to agree with it. SVE-related changes are mostly in patches:
arm64: ilp32: introduce ilp32-specific handlers for sigframe and ucontext
arm64: signal32: move ilp32 and aarch32 common code to separated file
arm64: signal: share lp64 signal structures and routines to ilp32
arm64: ilp32: add sys_ilp32.c and a separate table (in entry.S) to use it

Dave kindly reviewed that patches and proposed improvements:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg629221.html

There's no ABI-related changes proposed, or urgent fixes; so I'll rework
signal subsystem during 4.16 cycle.

Are there any news with upstreaming this series?

Thanks,
Yury
