Hi Elliot,

Some implementors of PSCI may wish to use a different reset type than
SYSTEM_WARM_RESET. For instance, Qualcomm SoCs support an alternate
reset_type which may be used in more warm reboot scenarios than
SYSTEM_WARM_RESET permits (e.g. to reboot into recovery mode).

To be honest, I'm still confused by this series, and I think that these
patches indicate a larger problem that we cannot solve generally (e.g.
on other platofrms and/or with ACPI).

I think the underlying issue is whether the semantics for:

a) Linux's RESET_WARM and RESET_SOFT
b) PSCI's SYSTEM_RESET2 SYSTEM_WARM_RESET

... actually align in practice, which this series suggests is not the
case.

If those don't align, then I think that commit:

   4302e381a870aafb ("firmware/psci: add support for SYSTEM_RESET2")

... is not actually reliable, and not something we can support by
default, and we should rethink the code introduce in that commit.

If (a) and (b) are supposed to align, and the behaviour on your platform
is an erratum, then I think we should treat it as such rather than
adding a property that is open to abuse.

Thoughts?

I think it's ok for (a) and (b) to align (that invalidates this series). PSCI SYSTEM_RESET2 supports vendor-specific reset types and the PSCI driver doesn't have any way for these vendor-specific resets to happen.

Would a better way be to export a psci_system_reset2 function? I can implement a reboot-mode driver for PSCI system_reset2 for DT-based platforms.

Thanks,
Elliot

Thanks,
Mark.
