The actual CPU kick is done by sending an inter-processor interrupt

The address secondary cores jump to is board specific, we provide
the value here for the Versatile Express board.

You seem to have ignored my comment about using the sysflags name?

As I understand, the sysflags name is a versatile express specific
register name that just happens to be used for the SMP boot address as
well...

Therefore, this should really be CONFIG_SMP_BOOT_ADDR or something like
that, at the very least.

I am sorry, I thought I reasoned that already in an earlier mail:
I don't want to introduce abstraction prematurely, so I wanted to 
refactor the code as soon as a second board gets supported. Which will 
probably be the Arndale, and also probably done by me ...



I still feel you're wrapping board specific logic into generic code, and
that you should call out to a more generic function.  Imagine an SOC
that uses an implementation defined control register for this instead of
a memory address...


Well, I can imagine quite some ways to do this, but in fact I'd like to 
focus on things that really exist ;-)
My fear is that any abstraction I introduce now will not suffice for a 
future board and needs to be refactored then anyway.


Regards,
Andre.



perhaps what you need is:

void set_board_smp_boot_addr(unsigned long addr);
unsigned long get_board_smp_boot_addr(void);

and call these instead of your direct use of sysflags addr here...?

Hmm, a big motivation for doing this is to make it clear what new boards
need to do to support Hyp mode, and make it as easy as possible.  We
have already made the choice to make this code generic in virt-v7.c as
opposed to vexpress.c (or whatever that file would be called), so I
don't really understand your argument about being premature, to be
completely honest.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 5/7] ARM: add SMP support for non-secure switch

2013-07-09 Thread Andre Przywara
Currently the non-secure switch is only done for the boot processor.
To enable full SMP support, we have to switch all secondary cores
into non-secure state also.

So we add an entry point for secondary CPUs coming out of low-power
state and make sure we put them into WFI again after having switched
to non-secure state.
For this we acknowledge and EOI the wake-up IPI, then go into WFI.
Once being kicked out of it later, we sanity check that the start
address has actually been changed (since another attempt to switch
to non-secure would block the core) and jump to the new address.

The actual CPU kick is done by sending an inter-processor interrupt
via the GIC to all CPU interfaces except the requesting processor.
The secondary cores will then setup their respective GIC CPU
interface.

The address secondary cores jump to is board specific, we provide
the value here for the Versatile Express board.
