Hi Ahmad,
thanks for answering,
actually I've already done some tests with the 'smc' DEBUG command but I think
and the results I got are not the expected ones.
(I must admit I'm not really an expert upon this PSCI subsystem of the imx7, so
I could be making some trivial errors...)
For example, if I directly execute 'smc -c' or a 'smc -i' just after barebox
booted up I get a crash:
imx7: / smc -c
prefetch abort
pc : [<10fc388c>] lr : [<bfe4a438>]
sp : bffefe10 ip : bffefe20 fp : 00000000
r10: 00000000 r9 : bfe4a55c r8 : bfe5a0f0
r7 : 00000000 r6 : 00000000 r5 : 00000000 r4 : 00000000
r3 : 00000000 r2 : bfe4a55c r1 : 00000001 r0 : 84000003
Flags: nZCv IRQs off FIQs off Mode UK6_32
no stack data available
I think this is OK because the secure monitor is still not installed.
Executing first a 'smc -n' I have:
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 4
imx7: / smc -n
imx7: / smc -i
found psci version 1.0
imx7: /
That's OK, I think.
Now I can try a 'smc -c' to enable the second core:
imx7: / smc -c
imx7: /
at this point I would expect to see the debug line generated by the
'psci_printf("2nd CPU online, now turn off again\n");' present in the funtion
'second_entry(void)'. Instead I just don't see anything.
Is this the expected behavior of 'smc -c' ?
