Add descriptions for four extensions: Za64rs, Ziccamoa, Ziccif, and
Zicclsm. These extensions are ratified in RISC-V Profiles Version 1.0
(commit b1d806605f87 "Updated to ratified state.").
They are introduced as new extension names for existing features and
regulate implementation details for RISC-V Profile compliance. According
to RISC-V Profiles Version 1.0 and RVA23 Profiles Version 1.0, they are
mandatory for the following profiles:
- za64rs: Mandatory in RVA22U64, RVA23U64
- ziccamoa: Mandatory in RVA20U64, RVA22U64, RVA23U64
- ziccif: Mandatory in RVA20U64, RVA22U64, RVA23U64
- zicclsm: Mandatory in RVA20U64, RVA22U64, RVA23U64
Since Ziccamoa depends on the 'A' extension, add a schema check to
enforce this dependency.

I think stating the RISC-V profiles commit ID here (in the commit
header) is good.
I do *not* think it's necessary to include it in the descriptions
for the extensions, below, but I seem to be late to the party in
expressing this opinion...
That commit ID is related to this repository:
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-profiles.git
I have a few other comments below but generally I think what you
did looks good. I have one overall question though.

I did not verify your statements about where these are
optional and mandatory, but I assume they're correct.

All of these extensions are related to atomic operations, right?
Don't *all* of them (not just Ziccamoa) depend on the A extension?
Furthermore, the A extension is already mandated by RVA23U64, so
is it really necessary to add this logic?

The more complete description says:
Reservation sets are contiguous, naturally aligned, and a maximum
of 64 bytes.
But as I read on (below) I suppose using the more succinct description
from the glossary might be best, forcing people who care to go look
at the reference documents.

Similar comment here (but also with a similar caveat):
Main memory regions with both the cacheability and coherence PMAs
must support all atomics in A.
And I might say "the A extension", but maybe that's a bad idea.

Thank you for the review.
Together with the filenames, I also listed the Version numbers.
These are officially released versions of profile documents. I mean they
won't be changed without modifying the version number.

Yes they are correct. As far as what stated in the two profile documents.

Za64rs and Zicclsm: no, they are not 'A'. They are cache related.
Ziccrse and Ziccamoa: yes, they are 'A' related.
Ziccrse specifies the main memory must support "RsrvEventual", which is one
(totally there are four) of the support level for Load-Reserved/
Store-Conditional (LR/SC) atomic instructions.
And in RVA profiles, two named features (exts) are added:
Ziccrse: which further define the level of LR/SC operations being supported.
Ziccamoa: which further define the level of AMOs instructions being supported.
We already know that "A" = Zaamo + Zalrsc;
In summary, the dependencies among these extensions are:
Ziccrse -> Zalrsc -> A;
Ziccamoa -> Zaamo -> A;

Hi, Conor
What do you think? I am kind of agree with Alex to remove the schema
checking logic.
Leaving the dependency check to riscv/cpufeature.c, let the .validate call
do the job. If you agree, I can remove the schema checking logic on Ziccamoa
and A in my next version.
Btw, cpufeature.c validate() deserves another patch/patchset.
I'll be happy to add that if we reach a consensus here.

I am using what the RVA23 Profile defines:
"Ziccamoa: Main memory supports all atomics in A"
I prefer to keep it as is.

Isn't a Za64rs reservation set related to atomic operations,
though? They are related to load-reserved/store conditional
instructions, which are introduced in the atomic instructions
section.
I was mistaken about Zicclsm, that's related to unaligned
accesses, but does not apply to atomic operations.

Yes, you are right. Let me update the relationship:
Za64rs defines a hard's reservation set implementation detail.
It is consumed by two extensions: Zalrsc and Zawrs.
Za64rs -> Zalrsc -> A
Za64rs -> Zawrs -> Zalrsc -> A
I would say maybe all these relationships deserve to be validated in
cpufeature.c (so far, they are not.)
