In SME the use of both streaming SVE mode and ZA are tracked through PSTATE.SM and PSTATE.ZA, visible through the system register SVCR. In order to context switch the floating point state for SME we need to context switch the contents of this register as part of context switching the floating point state. Since changing the vector length exits streaming SVE mode and disables ZA we also make sure we update SVCR appropriately when setting vector length, and similarly ensure that new threads have streaming SVE mode and ZA disabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
