      ARM: virt: allow the kernel to be entered in HYP mode · 80c59daf
      Dave Martin 提交于
      This patch does two things:
      
        * Ensure that asynchronous aborts are masked at kernel entry.
          The bootloader should be masking these anyway, but this reduces
          the damage window just in case it doesn't.
      
        * Enter svc mode via exception return to ensure that CPU state is
          properly serialised.  This does not matter when switching from
          an ordinary privileged mode ("PL1" modes in ARMv7-AR rev C
          parlance), but it potentially does matter when switching from a
          another privileged mode such as hyp mode.
      
      This should allow the kernel to boot safely either from svc mode or
      hyp mode, even if no support for use of the ARM Virtualization
      Extensions is built into the kernel.

      ARM: 7011/1: Add ARM cpu topology definition · c9018aab
      Vincent Guittot 提交于
      The affinity between ARM processors is defined in the MPIDR register.
      We can identify which processors are in the same cluster,
      and which ones have performance interdependency. We can define the
      cpu topology of ARM platform, that is then used by sched_mc and sched_smt.
      
      The default state of sched_mc and sched_smt config is disable.
      When enabled, the behavior of the scheduler can be modified with
      sched_mc_power_savings and sched_smt_power_savings sysfs interfaces.
      
      Changes since v4 :
      *  Remove unnecessary parentheses and blank lines
      
      Changes since v3 :
      * Update the format of printk message
      * Remove blank line
      
      Changes since v2 :
      * Update the commit message and some comments
      
      Changes since v1 :
      * Update the commit message
      * Add read_cpuid_mpidr in arch/arm/include/asm/cputype.h
      * Modify header of arch/arm/kernel/topology.c
      * Modify tests and manipulation of MPIDR's bitfields
      * Modify the place and dependancy of the config
      * Modify Noop functions

      ARM: 5902/4: arm/perfevents: implement perf event support for ARMv6 · 1b8873a0
      Jamie Iles 提交于
      This patch implements support for ARMv6 performance counters in the
      Linux performance events subsystem. ARMv6 architectures that have the
      performance counters should enable HW_PERF_EVENTS to get hardware
      performance events support in addition to the software events.
      
      Note: only ARM Ltd ARM cores are supported.
      
      This implementation also provides an ARM PMU abstraction layer to allow
      ARMv7 and others to be supported in the future by adding new a
      'struct arm_pmu'.
