ARM: 6389/1: errata: incorrect hazard handling in the SCU may lead to data corruption

Browse Source 
On the r2p0, r2p1 and r2p2 versions of the Cortex-A9, data corruption
can occur if a shared cache line is replaced on one CPU as another CPU
is accessing it.

This workaround sets two bits in the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9,
reducing the linefill issuing capabilities of the processor and
avoiding the erroneous behaviour.

help
This option enables the workaround for the 742231 Cortex-A9
(r2p0..r2p2) erratum. Under certain conditions, specific to the
Cortex-A9 MPCore micro-architecture, two CPUs working in SMP mode,
accessing some data located in the same cache line, may get corrupted
data due to bad handling of the address hazard when the line gets
replaced from one of the CPUs at the same time as another CPU is
accessing it. This workaround sets specific bits in the diagnostic
register of the Cortex-A9 which reduces the linefill issuing
capabilities of the processor.
