[PATCH v2 2/6] arm64: Add .mmuoff.text section

James Morse james.morse at arm.com
Wed Jun 15 10:35:44 PDT 2016


Resume from hibernate needs to clean any text executed by the kernel with
the MMU off to the PoC. Collect these functions together into a new
.mmuoff.text section.

This covers booting of secondary cores and the cpu_suspend() path used
by cpu-idle and suspend-to-ram.

The bulk of head.S is not included, as the primary boot code is only ever
executed once, the kernel never needs to ensure it is cleaned to a
particular point in the cache.
