Each distinct XSAVE feature has a number assigned to it. Among other things, the number determines the ordering of features in the XSAVE buffer and is also used to generate XSAVE bitmasks like the value for XCR0. AMX state is dynamically enabled by the architecture-specific prctl(). This prctl() takes one XSAVE feature number as an argument. However, the feature numbers are not defined in any readily available userspace headers. The means that each userspace app trying to use dynamic feature prctl()s will likely end up defining their own constants for each feature. Since these feature numbers are a part of the uabi, expose them in the prctl() uabi header. Save everyone the trouble of looking them up and defining their own.

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.
