[PATCH 16/19] arm64: cpu_ops: Expose optional argument to target cpu in ->cpu_boot()

Will Deacon will at kernel.org
Mon Sep 7 09:40:19 PDT 2026


Some backend implementations of 'struct cpu_ops', notably PSCI v0.2+,
allow an optional argument to be passed in register X0 to the target
CPU during boot.

Expose this functionality by extending the ->cpu_boot() CPU operation
to take an additional argument which is ignored unless the new optional
->cpu_boot_has_arg() callback is present and returns 'true'. For now,
we continue to pass zero.
