[PATCH v4 6/6] arm64: efi/libstub: enter with the MMU on

Ard Biesheuvel ardb at kernel.org
Tue Oct 18 04:04:41 PDT 2022


Instead of disabling the MMU and caches before jumping to the kernel's
entry point, just call it directly, and keep the MMU and caches enabled.

This removes the need for any unconditional cache invalidation to the
PoC in the entry path (although cache maintenance of the code portion of
the image is still necessary for I/D coherency if the image was moved
around in memory). It also allows us to get rid of the asm routine, as
doing the jump is easily done from C code.
