[RFC 2/4] arm64: cacheinfo: Add support for ACPI/PPTT generated topology

Jeremy Linton jeremy.linton at arm.com
Fri Aug 4 17:11:57 PDT 2017


The ACPI specification now includes a tree based description
of the cache hierarchy. On arm64 the first step is assuring
that we allocate sufficient levels to contain all the
individual cache descriptions beyond what is described
by the individual cores. Lets initially just stub that
out with a routine which indicates that there aren't further
levels beyond what is reported by the cores.
