Subject: [PATCH v5 2/3] arm64: memset-arm64: Use simple memset when cache is disabled
Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2021 10:48:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210817084827.692859-3-sr@denx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210817084827.692859-1-sr@denx.de>

The optimized memset uses the dc opcode, which causes problems when the
cache is disabled. This patch adds a check if the cache is disabled and
uses a very simple memset implementation in this case. Otherwise the
optimized version is used.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>

(no changes since v4)

Changes in v4:
- Use macros instead of register names, following the optimized code
- Add zero size check

Changes in v2:
- New patch
