      ARM: mm: implement LoUIS API for cache maintenance ops · 031bd879
      Lorenzo Pieralisi 提交于
      ARM v7 architecture introduced the concept of cache levels and related
      control registers. New processors like A7 and A15 embed an L2 unified cache
      controller that becomes part of the cache level hierarchy. Some operations in
      the kernel like cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable do not require a flush of the
      entire cache hierarchy to DRAM but just the cache levels belonging to the
      Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS), which in most of ARM v7 systems
      correspond to L1.
      
      The current cache flushing API used in cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable,
      flush_cache_all(), ends up flushing the whole cache hierarchy since for
      v7 it cleans and invalidates all cache levels up to Level of Coherency
      (LoC) which cripples system performance when used in hot paths like hotplug
      and cpuidle.
      
      Therefore a new kernel cache maintenance API must be added to cope with
      latest ARM system requirements.
      
      This patch adds flush_cache_louis() to the ARM kernel cache maintenance API.
      
      This function cleans and invalidates all data cache levels up to the
      Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS) and invalidates the instruction
      cache for processors that support it (> v7).
      
      This patch also creates an alias of the cache LoUIS function to flush_kern_all
      for all processor versions prior to v7, so that the current cache flushing
      behaviour is unchanged for those processors.
      
      v7 cache maintenance code implements a cache LoUIS function that cleans and
      invalidates the D-cache up to LoUIS and invalidates the I-cache, according
      to the new API.

      ARM: 6466/1: implement flush_icache_all for the rest of the CPUs · c8c90860
      Mika Westerberg 提交于
      Commit 81d11955 ("ARM: 6405/1: Handle __flush_icache_all for
      CONFIG_SMP_ON_UP") added a new function to struct cpu_cache_fns:
      flush_icache_all(). It also implemented this for v6 and v7 but not
      for v5 and backwards. Without the function pointer in place, we
      will be calling wrong cache functions.
      
      For example with ep93xx we get following:
      
          Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ee070f38
          pgd = c0004000

      __dma_alloc() calls (inlined) __dma_alloc_buffer() which ends up
      calling dmac_flush_range(). Now since the entries in the
      arm920_cache_fns are shifted by one, we jump into address 0xee070f38
      which is actually next instruction after the arm920_cache_fns
      structure.
      
      So implement flush_icache_all() for the rest of the supported CPUs
      using a generic 'invalidate I cache' instruction.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
