[RFC PATCH v2 0/3] arm64: tlb: add support for TTL field

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

 



ARMv8.4-TTL provides the TTL field in tlbi instruction to indicate
the level of translation table walk holding the leaf entry for the
address that is being invalidated. Hardware can use this information
to determine if there was a risk of splintering.

The PATCH v2 is based on Marc's NV series[1].
