Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Microwatt updates
Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2025 09:49:49 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Z5lfDb8wsLlmSLBZ@thinks.paulus.ozlabs.org> (raw)

This patch series updates the kernel support for the Microwatt
soft-core and its implementation on FPGA systems, particularly the
Digilent Arty A7-100 FPGA development board.

Microwatt now supports almost all of the features of the SFFS (Scalar
Fixed-poin and Floating-point Subset) compliancy subset of Power ISA
version 3.1C, including prefixed instructions and the fixed-point hash
(ROP mitigation) instructions.  It is also now SMP-capable, and a
dual-core system will fit on the Arty A7-100 board.

Microwatt does not have broadcast TLB invalidations in SMP systems;
the kernel already has code to deal with this.  One of the patches in
this series provides a config option to allow platforms to select
unconditionally the behaviour where cross-CPU TLB invalidations are
handled using inter-processor interrupts.

Paul.
