[PATCH v3 2/3] arm64: enable tlbi range instructions

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

 



TLBI RANGE feature instoduces new assembly instructions and only
support by binutils >= 2.30.  Add necessary Kconfig logic to allow
this to be enabled and pass '-march=armv8.4-a' to KBUILD_CFLAGS.
