Subject: [PATCH 06/19] arm64: smp: Tidy up cpuinfo init and cpufeature updates
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 17:40:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907164024.17164-7-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907164024.17164-1-will@kernel.org>
Populating the 'cpuinfo_arm64' structure during CPU bringup and
subsequently checking/updating cpufeature structures is slightly
convoluted and differs unnecessarily between the boot CPU and secondary
CPUs.
Rework the code so that cpuinfo_store_cpu() is used to populate the
'cpuinfo_arm64' structure for each CPU, with secondary CPUs then calling
update_cpu_features() to update the global view of the available
features. This allows us to internalise the 'boot_cpu_data' in
cpufeature.c and paves the way for parallelising the ID register probing
during bring-up of secondary CPUs.
