But the AArch64 registers are called x0 through x30. They are x
registers. So calling the SIMD registers X registers is both incorrect
and highly confusing. It is not general, it is specific to x86's notion
of SIMD.
Naming is hard (c) especially for non-native :),
I just need an avx registers test to fix golang issues in the Linuxulator.
Feel free to join D40410, D40384, propose you naming variant, may be
x->ext or ngprs
What was wrong with SIMD (simd)?
Strictly speaking test is about the fact that signal context properly
saves/restores machine context including gprs, simd registers, on x86
xsave area including many things, whch can be added later
For example, PKRU on x86 is a non-simd register that this test could be
verifying.
