From f6e763b93a6cd3411fd8df925344022719bcba62 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Brown Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2014 07:51:17 +0000 Subject: arm64: topology: Implement basic CPU topology support Add basic CPU topology support to arm64, based on the existing pre-v8 code and some work done by Mark Hambleton. This patch does not implement any topology discovery support since that should be based on information from firmware, it merely implements the scaffolding for integration of topology support in the architecture. No locking of the topology data is done since it is only modified during CPU bringup with external serialisation from the SMP code. The goal is to separate the architecture hookup for providing topology information from the DT parsing in order to ease review and avoid blocking the architecture code (which will be built on by other work) with the DT code review by providing something simple and basic. Following patches will implement support for interpreting topology information from MPIDR and for parsing the DT topology bindings for ARM, similar patches will be needed for ACPI.
