Perhaps we should follwo ePAPR and allow for common properties to go in /cpus (as I believe we do for arm). We might not be able to do that for device_type given how we detect CPU nodes at present, but we could certainly do it for the enable-method: ---->8---- diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/cpu_ops.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/cpu_ops.c index cce9524..733b3ed 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/cpu_ops.c +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/cpu_ops.c @@ -54,7 +54,18 @@ static const struct cpu_operations * __init cpu_get_ops(const char *name) */ int __init cpu_read_ops(struct device_node *dn, int cpu) { - const char *enable_method = of_get_property(dn, "enable-method", NULL); + const char *enable_method = NULL; + of_property_read_string(dn, "enable-method", &enable_method); + + if (!enable_method) { + /* + * Perhaps we have a common /cpus/enable-method + */ + struct device_node *cpus = of_get_parent(dn); + of_property_read_string(cpus, "enable-method", &enable_method); + of_node_put(cpus); + } + if (!enable_method) { /* * The boot CPU may not have an enable method (e.g. when ---->8---- I don't believe we check the compatible string at the moment, so that should be safe to make common too.
