Subject: [PATCH 2/6] arm64: fix "dc cvau" cache operation on errata-affected core
Date: Mon, 9 May 2016 17:49:46 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1462812590-4494-3-git-send-email-andre.przywara@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1462812590-4494-1-git-send-email-andre.przywara@arm.com>
The ARM errata 819472, 826319, 827319 and 824069 for affected
Cortex-A53 cores demand to promote "dc cvau" instructions to
"dc civac" as well.
Attribute the usage of the instruction in __flush_cache_user_range
to also be covered by our alternative patching efforts.
For that we introduce an assembly macro which both deals with
alternatives while still tagging the instructions as USER.
