Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] context tracker support for arm64
Date: Fri,  9 May 2014 14:51:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1399672310-9061-1-git-send-email-larry.bassel@linaro.org> (raw)

Implement and enable context tracking for arm64 (which is
a prerequisite for FULL_NOHZ support). This patchset
builds upon earlier work by Kevin Hilman and is based on 3.15-rc2.

Changes v2 to v3:

* Save/restore necessary registers in ct_user_enter and ct_user_exit
* Annotate "error paths" out of el0_sync with ct_user_exit

Changes v1 to v2:

* Save far_el1 in x26 temporarily

  arm64: adjust el0_sync so that a function can be called
