The memory copy/set instructions added as part of FEAT_MOPS can take an exception (e.g. page fault) part-way through their execution and resume execution afterwards. If however the task is re-scheduled and execution resumes on a different CPU, then the CPU may take a new type of exception to indicate this. This is because the architecture allows two options (Option A and Option B) to implement the instructions and a heterogeneous system can have different implementations between CPUs. In this case the OS has to reset the registers and restart execution from the prologue instruction. The algorithm for doing this is provided as part of the Arm ARM. Add an exception handler for the new exception and wire it up for userspace tasks.

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.
