[RFC PATCH v4 0/6] arm64: tlb: add support for TTL feature

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

 



In order to reduce the cost of TLB invalidation, the ARMv8.4 TTL
feature allows TLBs to be issued with a level allowing for quicker
invalidation.  This series provide support for this feature. 

Patch 1 and Patch 2 was provided by Marc on his NV series[1] patches,
which detect the TTL feature and add __tlbi_level interface.

See patches for details, Thanks.
