The EFI stub is entered with the caches and MMU enabled by the firmware, and once the stub is ready to hand over to the decompressor, we clean and disable the caches. The cache clean routines use CP15 barrier instructions, which can be disabled via SCTLR. Normally, when using the provided cache handling routines to enable the caches and MMU, this bit is enabled as well. However, but since we entered the stub with the caches already enabled, this routine is not executed before we call the cache clean routines, resulting in undefined instruction exceptions if the firmware never enabled this bit. So set the bit explicitly in the EFI entry code, but do so in a way that guarantees that the resulting code can still run on v6 cores as well (which are guaranteed to have CP15 barriers enabled) Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.9+ Acked-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
