Subject: [PATCH 0/6] arm64: boot cleanups
Date: Thu, 20 May 2021 12:50:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210520115031.18509-1-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)

This series (based on v5.13-rc1) reworks the way we initialize some state at
boot time, simplifying and unifying the logic for primary and secondary CPUs.
This allows us to initalize the per-cpu offsets earlier (which will help to
enable KCSAN), and reduces the data we need to pass to a secondary. In future,
this should allow us to transfer the secondary data atomically and make the
secondary boot paths more robust to arbitrarily long delays.

I've based this on Mahdavan's stacktrace termination patch [1] (duplicated here
unchanged), since it made sense to combine the unwind initialization along with
the other CPU state, and otherwise there would be non-trivial merge conflicts.

I've given the series some boot testing with a variety of configurations,
checking that stacktraces work correctly, etc.

The series can be found on my arm64/boot/rework branch on kernel.org:

Thanks,
Mark.
