The main change here is a significant head.S rework that allows us to boot on machines with physical memory at a really high address without having to increase our mapped VA range. Other changes include: - AES performance boost for Cortex-A57 - AArch32 (compat) userspace with 64k pages - Cortex-A53 erratum workaround for #845719 - defconfig updates (new platforms, PCI, ...) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABCgAGBQJVLnQpAAoJELescNyEwWM03RIH/iwcDc0MBZgkwfD5cnY+29p4 m89lMDo3SyGQT4NynHSw7P3R7c3zULmI+9hmJMw/yfjjjL6m7X+vVAF3xj1Am4Al OzCqYLHyFnlRktzJ6dWeF1Ese7tWqPpxn+OCXgYNpz/r5MfF/HhlyX/qNzAQPKrw ZpDvnt44DgUfweqjTbwQUg2wkyCRjmz57MQYxDcmJStdpHIu24jWOvDIo3OJGjyS L49I9DU6DGUhkISZmmBE0T7vmKMD1BcgI7OIzX2WIqn521QT+GSLMhRxaHmK1s1V A8gaMTwpo0xFhTAt7sbw/5+2663WmfRdZI+FtduvORsoxX6KdDn7DH1NQixIm8s= =+F0I -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon: "Here are the core arm64 updates for 4.1.

The head.S rework spilt over into KVM, so there are some changes under arch/arm/ which have been acked by Marc Zyngier (KVM co-maintainer). In particular, the linker script changes caused us some issues in -next, so there are a few merge commits where we had to apply fixes on top of a stable branch.

* ARM Performance Monitor Units
|
|
|
|
ARM cores often have a PMU for counting cpu and cache events like cache misses
|
|
and hits. The interface to the PMU is part of the ARM ARM. The ARM PMU
|
|
representation in the device tree should be done as under:-
|
|
|
|
Required properties:
|
|
|
|
- compatible : should be one of
|
|
"arm,armv8-pmuv3"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a17-pmu"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a15-pmu"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a12-pmu"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a9-pmu"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a8-pmu"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a7-pmu"
|
|
"arm,cortex-a5-pmu"
|
|
"arm,arm11mpcore-pmu"
|
|
"arm,arm1176-pmu"
|
|
"arm,arm1136-pmu"
|
|
"qcom,scorpion-pmu"
|
|
"qcom,scorpion-mp-pmu"
|
|
"qcom,krait-pmu"
|
|
- interrupts : 1 combined interrupt or 1 per core. If the interrupt is a per-cpu
|
|
interrupt (PPI) then 1 interrupt should be specified.
|
|
|
|
Optional properties:
|
|
|
|
- interrupt-affinity : Valid only when using SPIs, specifies a list of phandles
|
|
to CPU nodes corresponding directly to the affinity of
|
|
the SPIs listed in the interrupts property.
|
|
|
|
This property should be present when there is more than
|
|
a single SPI.
|
|
|
|
- qcom,no-pc-write : Indicates that this PMU doesn't support the 0xc and 0xd
|
|
events.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
pmu {
|
|
compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-pmu";
|
|
interrupts = <100 101>;
|
|
};
