2012-08-11ARM: 7489/1: errata: fix workaround for erratum #720789 on UP systemsWill Deacon
Commit 5a783cbc4836 ("ARM: 7478/1: errata: extend workaround for erratum #720789") added workarounds for erratum #720789 to the range TLB invalidation functions with the observation that the erratum only affects SMP platforms. However, when running an SMP_ON_UP kernel on a uniprocessor platform we must take care to preserve the ASID as the workaround is not required. This patch ensures that we don't set the ASID to 0 when flushing the TLB on such a system, preserving the original behaviour with the workaround disabled.

Commit cdf357f1 ("ARM: 6299/1: errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID") replaced by-ASID TLB flushing operations with all-ASID variants to workaround A9 erratum #720789. This patch extends the workaround to include the tlb_range operations, which were overlooked by the original patch.

2011-07-19ARM: btc: avoid invalidating the branch target cache on kernel TLB maintanenceRussell King
Kernel space needs very little in the way of BTC maintanence as most mappings which are created and destroyed are non-executable, and so could never enter the instruction stream. The case which does warrant BTC maintanence is when a module is loaded. This creates a new executable mapping, but at that point the pages have not been initialized with code and data, so at that point they contain unpredictable information. Invalidating the BTC at this stage serves little useful purpose. Before we execute module code, we call flush_icache_range(), which deals with the BTC maintanence requirements. This ensures that we have a BTC maintanence operation before we execute code via the newly created mapping. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2010-10-04ARM: Allow SMP kernels to boot on UP systemsRussell King
UP systems do not implement all the instructions that SMP systems have, so in order to boot a SMP kernel on a UP system, we need to rewrite parts of the kernel. Do this using an 'alternatives' scheme, where the kernel code and data is modified prior to initialization to replace the SMP instructions, thereby rendering the problematical code ineffectual. We use the linker to generate a list of 32-bit word locations and their replacement values, and run through these replacements when we detect a UP system.

2010-05-08ARM: 6112/1: Use the Inner Shareable I-cache and BTB ops on ARMv7 SMPCatalin Marinas
The standard I-cache Invalidate All (ICIALLU) and Branch Predication Invalidate All (BPIALL) operations are not automatically broadcast to the other CPUs in an ARMv7 MP system. The patch adds the Inner Shareable variants, ICIALLUIS and BPIALLIS, if ARMv7 and SMP.

2009-05-30Check whether the TLB operations need broadcasting on SMP systemsCatalin Marinas
ARMv7 SMP hardware can handle the TLB maintenance operations broadcasting in hardware so that the software can avoid the costly IPIs. This patch adds the necessary checks (the MMFR3 CPUID register) to avoid the broadcasting if already supported by the hardware. (this patch is based on the work done by Tony Thompson @ ARM) Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2009-04-28arm: Use __INIT macro instead of .text.init.Tim Abbott
arm is placing some code in the .text.init section, but it does not reference that section in its linker scripts. This change moves this code from the .text.init section to the .init.text section, which is presumably where it belongs.
