Let's make sure this one addresses the need of the gic one, and then
I'll merge this one into arm/next first and drop the other one.

OK, now that'd I've rethought about this, the natural sizes weren't
a good idea. They don't really give us better common code anyway,
because 64-bit code may want to look at the upper 32 bits. I think
we need to forget (3) above, and special case MPIDR for arm32 accesses.
MPIDR is special because it gets used by core smp and gic code, and we
don't want #ifdefs everywhere.
So, for this patch, I think we only need to add
DEFINE_GET_SYSREG32(mpidr32, 0, c0, c0, 5)
static inline uint64_t get_mpidr(void)
{
return get_mpidr32();
}
to the 32-bit processor.h
and in the 64-bit file we need to switch DEFINE_GET_SYSREG32(mpidr, el1)
to DEFINE_GET_SYSREG64(mpidr, el1). Also, the second reply I made still
holds; always using 64-bit (unsigned long) internally for AArch64
registers, but choosing to just return the lower 32 bits for the "32-bit"
ones (Peter's arguments weren't lost on me :-)
How's that sound?
Thanks,
drew
(Changing get_mpidr() to return a uint64_t means I'll need to fixup [2],
but no biggy...)
