[PATCH 0/2] arm64: Workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum 1530923

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

 



This series enables a workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum 1530923. The
erratum potentially allows TLB entries to be allocated as a result of a
speculative AT instruction. This may happen in the middle of a guest
world switch while the relevant VMSA configuration is in an inconsistent
state, leading to erroneous content being allocated into TLBs.

The existing workaround for Cortex-A76 erratum 1165522 is the same, so
the first patch renames this workaround to a generic name
(SPECULATIVE_AT), the second patch then adds the detection for the
Cortex-A55 erratum 1530923.
