- Add a percpu structure for each cpu, akin to x86-64 and riscv. Pointed
to by x18, which is now reserved for this in the kernel. Tweaked
exception and context switch routines to leave x18 alone.
- Remove the cpu-trapping spinlock logic that is unused in mainline,
probably. (Can add a new version of it back if it's necessary).
- Switch fdtwalk helper to using the newer, cleaner way of initializing
secondaries using the PSCI CPU_ON argument that should be pretty
standard on modern implementations. (Possibly an issue with old
firmware).
- Remove the notion of computing the cpu ID from the Affinity levels,
which doesn't really work properly on modern ARM CPUs which more or
less abandoned the logical meaning of AFFn.
When dropping from EL2 (or EL3), load vmpidr_el2 and vpidr_el2 with the
correct values to make sure EL1 sees the 'real' mpidr_el1 and midr_el1.
Though in most cases they're already configured by whatever firmware ran
before, there's no actual guarantee that it is, and it may be full of
random garbage.
It is possible for early initialization functions such as lk_main()
to contain NEON instructions because we don't build the kernel with
-mgeneral-regs-only. As a result we can end up taking an FPU exception
before we are ready to handle it.
We didn't have this problem when starting at a higher exception level
than EL1 because we turned off FPU traps in arm64_elX_to_el1(). But we
neglected to do so when starting at EL1. Fix the problem by moving the
CPACR_EL1 manipulation out of arm64_elX_to_el1() and into arm_reset().
It's called immediately upon entering the kernel entry vector, prior
to knowing if it's the boot cpu or needing to save any boot arguments,
so avoid using these registers
