      arm64: entry-ftrace.S: avoid open-coded {adr,ldr}_l · 829d2bd1
      Mark Rutland authored
      Some places in the kernel open-code sequences using ADRP for a symbol
      another instruction using a :lo12: relocation for that same symbol.
      These sequences are easy to get wrong, and more painful to read than is
      necessary. For these reasons, it is preferable to use the
      {adr,ldr,str}_l macros for these cases.
      
      This patch makes use of these in entry-ftrace.S, removing open-coded
      sequences using adrp. This results in a minor code change, since a
      temporary register is not used when generating the address for some
      symbols, but this is fine, as the value of the temporary register is not
      used elsewhere.

      arm64: cacheinfo: add support to override cache levels via device tree · 9a802431
      Sudeep Holla authored
      The cache hierarchy can be identified through Cache Level ID(CLIDR)
      architected system register. However in some cases it will provide
      only the number of cache levels that are integrated into the processor
      itself. In other words, it can't provide any information about the
      caches that are external and/or transparent.
      
      Some platforms require to export the information about all such external
      caches to the userspace applications via the sysfs interface.
      
      This patch adds support to override the cache levels using device tree
      to take such external non-architected caches into account.

      of: base: add support to find the level of the last cache · 5fa23530
      Sudeep Holla authored
      It is useful to have helper function just to get the number of cache
      levels for a given logical cpu. We can obtain the same by just checking
      the level at which the last cache is present. This patch adds support
      to find the level of the last cache for a given cpu.
      
      It will be used on ARM64 platform where the device tree provides the
      information for the additional non-architected/transparent/external
      last level caches that are not integrated with the processors.
