[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] arm: socfpga: enable data/inst prefetch and shared override in the L2

[dinguyen at opensource.altera.com]

From: Dinh Nguyen <dinguyen@opensource.altera.com>

Update the L2 AUX CTRL settings for the SoCFPGA.

Enabling D and I prefetch bits helps improve SDRAM performance on the
platform.

Also, we need to enable bit 22 of the L2. By not having bit 22 set in the
PL310 Auxiliary Control register (shared attribute override enable) has the
side effect of transforming Normal Shared Non-cacheable reads into Cacheable
no-allocate reads.

Coherent DMA buffers in Linux always have a Cacheable alias via the
kernel linear mapping and the processor can speculatively load cache
lines into the PL310 controller. With bit 22 cleared, Non-cacheable
reads would unexpectedly hit such cache lines leading to buffer
corruption.

These would be

arch/arm/include/asm/hardware/cache-l2x0.h:#define
L310_PREFETCH_CTRL_DATA_PREFETCH     BIT(28)
arch/arm/include/asm/hardware/cache-l2x0.h:#define
L310_PREFETCH_CTRL_INSTR_PREFETCH    BIT(29)

...in kernel. So maybe staying with L310_ prefix makes sense?
Otherwise it looks ok.

Why is it L... in one and PL... in the other one ? What does the "PL"
prefix stand for anyway ?

As Pavel pointed out, it should be L310_x as this is how the Linux
kernel is defining it. It's my mistake in the previous patch to change
the define to PL310.

I'll respin this patch with L310_PREFETCH_CTRL_DATA_PREFETCH and
L310_PREFETCH_CTRL_INSTR_PREFETCH.

It should have been just 'L" and not "PL" at all.

Why ? What does that "PL" stand for and why can we omit the P ?

I don't mean to grind you, don't get me wrong, I'm gonna pick the V2 tomorrow,
I just want to understand why it's enough to omit the P .

Well, in kernel, pl310 -related registers also have L310 prefix (no
PL), so I'm not sure it was a typo...
