[PATCH v3 01/20] arm64: explicitly mask all exceptions

James Morse james.morse at arm.com
Thu Oct 5 12:17:53 PDT 2017


There are a few places where we want to mask all exceptions. Today we
do this in a piecemeal fashion, typically we expect the caller to
have masked irqs and the arch code masks debug exceptions, ignoring
SError which is probably masked.

Make it clear that 'mask all exceptions' is the intention by adding
helpers to do exactly that.

This will let us unmask SError without having to add 'oh and SError'
to these paths.

Remove the disable IRQs comment above cpu_die(): we return from idle via
cpu_resume. This comment is confusing once the local_irq_disable() call
is changed.
