For hardware produced by ARM, these -errata are broadly classified into the following categories: - - Category A: A critical error without a viable workaround. - Category B: A significant or critical error with an acceptable - workaround. - Category C: A minor error that is not expected to occur under normal - operation. - -For more information, consult one of the "Software Developers Errata -Notice" documents available on infocenter.arm.com (registration -required). - -As far as Linux is concerned, Category B errata may require some special -treatment in the operating system. For example, avoiding a particular -sequence of code, or configuring the processor in a particular way. A -less common situation may require similar actions in order to declassify -a Category A erratum into a Category C erratum. These are collectively -known as "software workarounds" and are only required in the minority of -cases (e.g. those cases that both require a non-secure workaround *and* -can be triggered by Linux). - -For software workarounds that may adversely impact systems unaffected by -the erratum in question, a Kconfig entry is added under "Kernel -Features" -> "ARM errata workarounds via the alternatives framework". -These are enabled by default and patched in at runtime when an affected -CPU is detected. For less-intrusive workarounds, a Kconfig option is not -available and the code is structured (preferably with a comment) in such -a way that the erratum will not be hit. - -This approach can make it slightly onerous to determine exactly which -errata are worked around in an arbitrary kernel source tree, so this -file acts as a registry of software workarounds in the Linux Kernel and -will be updated when new workarounds are committed and backported to -stable kernels. - -| Implementor | Component | Erratum ID | Kconfig | -+----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------------------+ -| Allwinner | A64/R18 | UNKNOWN1 | SUN50I_ERRATUM_UNKNOWN1 | -| | | | | -| ARM | Cortex-A53 | #826319 | ARM64_ERRATUM_826319 | -| ARM | Cortex-A53 | #827319 | ARM64_ERRATUM_827319 | -| ARM | Cortex-A53 | #824069 | ARM64_ERRATUM_824069 | -| ARM | Cortex-A53 | #819472 | ARM64_ERRATUM_819472 | -| ARM | Cortex-A53 | #845719 | ARM64_ERRATUM_845719 | -| ARM | Cortex-A53 | #843419 | ARM64_ERRATUM_843419 | -| ARM | Cortex-A57 | #832075 | ARM64_ERRATUM_832075 | -| ARM | Cortex-A57 | #852523 | N/A | -| ARM | Cortex-A57 | #834220 | ARM64_ERRATUM_834220 | -| ARM | Cortex-A72 | #853709 | N/A | -| ARM | Cortex-A73 | #858921 | ARM64_ERRATUM_858921 | -| ARM | Cortex-A55 | #1024718 | ARM64_ERRATUM_1024718 | -| ARM | Cortex-A76 | #1188873,1418040| ARM64_ERRATUM_1418040 | -| ARM | Cortex-A76 | #1165522 | ARM64_ERRATUM_1165522 | -| ARM | Cortex-A76 | #1286807 | ARM64_ERRATUM_1286807 | -| ARM | Cortex-A76 | #1463225 | ARM64_ERRATUM_1463225 | -| ARM | Neoverse-N1 | #1188873,1418040| ARM64_ERRATUM_1418040 | -| ARM | MMU-500 | #841119,826419 | N/A | -| | | | | -| Cavium | ThunderX ITS | #22375,24313 | CAVIUM_ERRATUM_22375 | -| Cavium | ThunderX ITS | #23144 | CAVIUM_ERRATUM_23144 | -| Cavium | ThunderX GICv3 | #23154 | CAVIUM_ERRATUM_23154 | -| Cavium | ThunderX Core | #27456 | CAVIUM_ERRATUM_27456 | -| Cavium | ThunderX Core | #30115 | CAVIUM_ERRATUM_30115 | -| Cavium | ThunderX SMMUv2 | #27704 | N/A | -| Cavium | ThunderX2 SMMUv3| #74 | N/A | -| Cavium | ThunderX2 SMMUv3| #126 | N/A | -| | | | | -| Freescale/NXP | LS2080A/LS1043A | A-008585 | FSL_ERRATUM_A008585 | -| | | | | -| Hisilicon | Hip0{5,6,7} | #161010101 | HISILICON_ERRATUM_161010101 | -| Hisilicon | Hip0{6,7} | #161010701 | N/A | -| Hisilicon | Hip07 | #161600802 | HISILICON_ERRATUM_161600802 | -| Hisilicon | Hip08 SMMU PMCG | #162001800 | N/A | -| | | | | -| Qualcomm Tech. | Kryo/Falkor v1 | E1003 | QCOM_FALKOR_ERRATUM_1003 | -| Qualcomm Tech. | Falkor v1 | E1009 | QCOM_FALKOR_ERRATUM_1009 | -| Qualcomm Tech. | QDF2400 ITS | E0065 | QCOM_QDF2400_ERRATUM_0065 | -| Qualcomm Tech. | Falkor v{1,2} | E1041 | QCOM_FALKOR_ERRATUM_1041 | -| Fujitsu | A64FX | E#010001 | FUJITSU_ERRATUM_010001 | |
