Subject: [PATCH RESEND 0/2] ARM: implement cacheinfo support (for v7/v7m)
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2024 04:20:07 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240430-armv7-cacheinfo-v1-0-e3d1caa40dc5@linaro.org> (raw)

Follow the ARM64 platform and implement simple cache information driver.
As it reads data from CTR (ARMv6+) and CLIDR (ARMv7+) registers, it is
limited to the ARMv7 / ARMv7M, providing simple fallback or just
returning -EOPNOTSUPP in case of older platforms.

In theory we should be able to skip CLIDR reading and assume that Dcache
and Icache (or unified L1 cache) always exist if CTR is supported and
returns sensible value. However I think this better be handled by the
maintainers of corresponding platforms.
