Subject: [PATCH 2/3] oslat: Add aarch64 support
Date: Wed,  8 Sep 2021 12:02:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210908100209.118609-2-nsaenzju@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210908100209.118609-1-nsaenzju@redhat.com>

The callbacks are based on Linux's implementation:
 - CNTVCT_EL0 provides direct access to the system virtual timer[1].
 - 'yield' serves as a CPU hint with similar semantics as x86's
   'pause'[2].

[1] See Linux's '__arch_get_hw_counter()' in arch/arm64/include/asm/vdso/gettimeofday.h
[2] See Linux's 1baa82f4803 ("arm64: Implement cpu_relax as yield").
