[PATCH] arm64: topology: Implement basic CPU topology support

Mark Brown broonie at kernel.org
Tue Mar 4 02:08:31 EST 2014


From: Mark Brown <broonie at linaro.org>

Add basic CPU topology support to arm64, based on the existing pre-v8
code and some work done by Mark Hambleton.  This patch does not
implement any topology discovery support since that should be based on
information from firmware, it merely implements the scaffolding for
integration of topology support in the architecture.

No locking of the topology data is done since it is only modified during
CPU bringup with external serialisation from the SMP code.

The goal is to separate the architecture hookup for providing topology
information from the DT parsing in order to ease review and avoid
blocking the architecture code (which will be built on by other work)
with the DT code review by providing something simple and basic.

A following patch will implement support for parsing the DT topology
bindings for ARM, similar patches will be needed for ACPI.

Just posting the first patch for now, I've tweaked the debug output so
we don't print errors on missing topology information now but otherwise
no changes.  I will repost the DT stuff once I've managed to test
changes to completely discard the DT topology on error, should be next
week if not this.
