linux.git/arch/arm64/kernel/relocate_kernel.S, branch v4.11 Linux kernel source tree arm64: Introduce raw_{d,i}cache_line_size 2016-09-09T14:03:29+00:00 Suzuki K Poulose suzuki.poulose@arm.com 2016-09-09T13:07:14+00:00 072f0a633838aca13b5a8b211eb64f5c445cfd7c On systems with mismatched i/d cache min line sizes, we need to use the smallest size possible across all CPUs. This will be done by fetching the system wide safe value from CPU feature infrastructure. However the some special users(e.g kexec, hibernate) would need the line size on the CPU (rather than the system wide), when either the system wide feature may not be accessible or it is guranteed that the caller executes with a gurantee of no migration. Provide another helper which will fetch cache line size on the current CPU.
