[PATCH] selftests: vDSO: check cpu caps before running chacha test

From: Jason A. Donenfeld
Date: Sat Sep 14 2024 - 19:13:11 EST


Some archs -- arm64 and s390x -- implemented chacha using instructions
that are available most places, but aren't always available. The kernel
handles this just fine, but the selftest does not. Check the hwcaps
before running, and skip the test if the cpu doesn't support it. As
well, on s390x, always emit the fallback instructions of an alternative
block, to ensure maximum compatibility.
