Subject: [PATCH V4 0/2] arm64/debug: Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros
Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2025 09:05:45 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250612033547.480952-1-anshuman.khandual@arm.com> (raw)
MDSCR_EL1 has already been defined in tools sysreg format and hence can be
used in all debug monitor related call paths. Subsequently all DBG_MDSCR_*
macros become redundant and hence can be dropped off completely. While here
convert all variables handling MDSCR_EL1 register as u64 which reflects its
true width as well.
This series applies on v6.16-rc1
Changes in V4:
- Updated the commit message in [PATCH 1/2] explainig rationale for changing
mdscr variable as u64 per Mark
Changes in V3:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250610053128.4118784-1-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/
- Split out the self test changes into a separate patch per Mark
- Added RB tag from Ada
Changes in V2:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250508044752.234543-1-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/
- Changed reg, val width to u64 in cortex_a76_erratum_1463225_svc_handler() per Ada
- Changed mdscr register width to uint64_t in enable_monitor_debug_exceptions() and
install_ss() per Ada
