[PATCH 1/2] armv8: aarch32: Execute 32-bit Linux for LayerScape platforms

Alison Wang b18965 at freescale.com
Thu Sep 22 19:19:05 PDT 2016


The ARMv8 architecture supports:
1. 64-bit execution state, AArch64.
2. 32-bit execution state, AArch32, that is compatible with previous
versions of the ARM architecture.

LayerScape platforms are compliant with ARMv8 architecture. This patch
is to support running 32-bit Linux kernel for LayerScape platforms.

Verified on LayerScape LS1043ARDB, LS1012ARDB, LS1046ARDB boards.
