Hi Geert,
The issue you're seeing is due to a combination of commits
5f3bca0db8ac01a7
("ARM: shmobile: apmu: Add APMU DT support via Enable method") and
dc378795156d980c ("ARM: dts: r8a7790: Add APMU nodes").
When debug mode is enabled (SW8-4 = OFF), trying to boot secondary CPUs
may
lock up the system after a cold boot, depending of boot load version.
Hence
we explicitly prohibit that. BTW, this has been the case on Koelsch since
commit
277efd30cfc72ec2 ("ARM: shmobile: Check r8a7791 MD21 at SMP boot").
Now, does series "[PATCH/RFT 0/4] ARM: shmobile: R-Car Gen2: Allow booting
secondary CPU cores in debug mode" (included in all renesas-drivers
releases
during September) fix it for you?
Thanks for your series patches.
I have had some problems of receiving post mail from Linux-Renesas Mailing
List recently.
Could you please forward these series patches to me?
They're included in renesas-drivers.
You can also get them from gitweb at
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/geert/renesas-drivers.git/log/?h=topic/rcar-secondary-booting-in-debug-mode-v1
Thanks, I'll confirm these patches on my board.
Thank you.
Hiep.
