[PATCHv2 4/4] ARM: mvebu: implement L2/PCIe deadlock workaround

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




The Marvell Armada 375 and Armada 38x SOCs, which use the Cortex-A9
CPU core, the PL310 cache and the Marvell PCIe hardware block are
affected a L2/PCIe deadlock caused by a system erratum when hardware
I/O coherency is used.

This deadlock can be avoided by mapping the PCIe memory areas as
strongly-ordered, and by removing the outer cache sync done in
software. This is done in this patch, thanks to the new bits of
infrastructure added in 'ARM: mm: allow sub-architectures to override
PCI I/O memory type' and 'ARM: mm: add support for HW coherent systems
in PL310' respectively.
