Subject: [PATCH 6.15 025/192] arm64/mm: Drop wrong writes into TCR2_EL1
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2025 15:12:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250715130815.874397237@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250715130814.854109770@linuxfoundation.org>
6.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@arm.com>
[ Upstream commit 9dd1757493416310a5e71146a08bc228869f8dae ]
Register X0 contains PIE_E1_ASM and should not be written into REG_TCR2_EL1
which could have an adverse impact otherwise. This has remained undetected
till now probably because current value for PIE_E1_ASM (0xcc880e0ac0800000)
clears TCR2_EL1 which again gets set subsequently with 'tcr2' after testing
for FEAT_TCR2.
Drop this unwarranted 'msr' which is a stray change from an earlier commit.
This line got re-introduced when rebasing on top of the commit 926b66e2ebc8
("arm64: setup: name 'tcr2' register").
