      omap4: l2x0: Set share override bit · b0f20ff9
      Santosh Shilimkar 提交于
      Clearing bit 22 in the PL310 Auxiliary Control register (shared
      attribute override enable) has the side effect of transforming Normal
      Shared Non-cacheable reads into Cacheable no-allocate reads.
      
      Coherent DMA buffers in Linux always have a Cacheable alias via the
      kernel linear mapping and the processor can speculatively load cache
      lines into the PL310 controller. With bit 22 cleared, Non-cacheable
      reads would unexpectedly hit such cache lines leading to buffer
      corruption

      omap4: l2x0: enable instruction and data prefetching · 11e02640
      Mans Rullgard 提交于
      Enabling L2 prefetching improves performance as shown on Panda
      ES2.1 board with mem test, and it has measurable impact on
      performances. I think we should consider it, even though it damages
      "writes" a bit. (rebased to k.org)
      Usually the prefetch is used at both levels together L1 + L2, however,
      to enable the CP15 prefetch engines, these are under security, and on
      GP devices, we cannot enable it(e.g. on PandaBoard). However, just
      enabling PL310 prefetch seems to provide performance improvement,
      as shown in the data below (from Ubuntu) and would be a great thing
      to pull in.
      
      What prefetch does is enable automatic next line prefetching. With this
      enabled, whenever the PL310 receives a cachable read request, it
      automatically prefetches the following cache line as well.
