[PATCH v3 1/5] dt-bindings: mips: Document mti,mips-cm

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

 



Add device tree binding documentation for MIPS Coherence Manager. This
component enables support for SMP by providing each processor in the
system with a uniform view of memory. The Coherence Manager is
responsible for establishing the global ordering of requests from all
elements of the system and sending the correct data back to the
requester.
