[PATCH v2 0/2] ARM errata 814220

[Benjamin Gaignard]

Implement ARM errata 814220 for Cortex A7.

This patch has been wroten by Jason Liu years ago but never send upstream.
I have tried to contact the author on multiple email addresses but I haven't
found any valid one...
I have keep Jason's sign-off and just rebase the patch on to v5-rc6.

version 2:
- limite help lines to 80 columns.
- Add  Arnd Bergmann acks.

[PATCH v2 1/2] ARM: errata 814220-B-Cache maintenance by set/way operations can execute out of order.

[Benjamin Gaignard]

Description:
The v7 ARM states that all cache and branch predictor maintenance operations
that do not specify an address execute, relative to each other, in program
order. However, because of this erratum, an L2 set/way cache maintenance
operation can overtake an L1 set/way cache maintenance operation, this would
cause the data corruption.

This ERRATA affected the Cortex-A7 and present in r0p2, r0p3, r0p4, r0p5.

This patch is the SW workaround by adding a DSB before changing cache levels as
the ARM ERRATA: ARM/MP: 814220 told in the ARM ERRATA documentation.

Russel,

If you agree, can I take this series in my STM32 soc tree ?
If yes it will be part of my PR for v5.2.

regards
Alex

Adding Jason's NXP e-mail address.

Thanks

Thanks !

Russell, can Alexandre push this series in stm32 tree or you prefer to
merge it yourself ?

Benjamin

Hello Russell,

I have push this series in your patch system weeks ago, but nothing happens.
Do I miss something in your process ?

Benjamin

I'm now running stuff on a shoe-string here, so I only process patches
once or twice a release cycle.  That's what happens when your funding
gets severely cut - we are now _really_ struggling as a business, and
so I don't see the current situation being able to be maintained much
further into the future (our income is no longer sufficient to sustain
us as a business.)

However, I'll get to it in the next couple of weeks.
