Subject: [PATCH V2 04/13] arm64: Add new hcall HVC_CALL_FUNC
Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2014 11:11:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410372709.30895.0.camel@smoke> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ea28cfef061d06e86704845a877802e057749b39.1410302383.git.geoff@infradead.org>
Add the new hcall HVC_CALL_FUNC that allows execution of a function at EL2.
During CPU reset the CPU must be brought to the exception level it had on
entry to the kernel. The HVC_CALL_FUNC hcall will provide the mechanism
needed for this exception level switch.
