CPUCFG is the instruction for querying processor characteristics on newer Loongson processors, much like CPUID of x86. Since the instruction is supposedly designed to provide a unified way to do feature detection (without having to, for example, parse /proc/cpuinfo which is too heavyweight), it is important to provide compatibility for older cores without native support. Fortunately, most of the fields can be synthesized without changes to semantics. Performance is not really big a concern, because feature detection logic is not expected to be invoked very often in typical userland applications. The instruction can't be emulated on LOONGSON_2EF cores, according to FlyGoat's experiments. Because the LWC2 opcode is assigned to other valid instructions on 2E and 2F, no RI exception is raised for us to intercept. So compatibility is only extended back furthest to Loongson-3A1000. Loongson-2K is covered too, as it is basically a remix of various blocks from the 3A/3B models from a kernel perspective. This is lightly based on Loongson's work on their Linux 3.10 fork, for being the authority on the right feature flags to fill in, where things aren't otherwise discoverable.
