Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/9] arm: add call to CPU idle quirks handler

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your proposal, however, I have some trouble with it.

That would look lovely:

#include <linux/linkage.h>
#include <asm/assembler.h>

/*
  *      cpu_kinetis_do_idle()
  *
  *      Idle the processor (wait for interrupt).
  *
  *      IRQs are already disabled.
  */
ENTRY(cpu_kinetis_do_idle)
         wfi
         movw    r3, #:lower16:0xe0082000
         movt    r3, #:upper16:0xe0082000
         ldr     r0, [r3, #0]
         orr     r2, r0, #0x85000000
         str     r2, [r3, #0]
         ret     lr
ENDPROC(cpu_kinetis_do_idle)

But... what about the rest of this hypothetical proc_kinetis.S file?

It would be a lot of code duplication with proc-v7m.S I think.

I could define CPU_KINETIS as such:

config CPU_KINETIS
 	bool
 	select CPU_V7M

But there's no such thing like customize_processor_functions that would be 
called after proc-v7m.S define_processor_functions specified things like 
idle routine.

Finally, while I was searching for suitable arm_pm_idle-based solution, I 
found idle.c in mach-gemini that encouraged me to write my own idle.c for 
Kinetis:

/*
  * arch/arm/mach-kinetis/idle.c
  */

#include <linux/init.h>
#include <linux/io.h>
#include <asm/system_misc.h>
#include <asm/proc-fns.h>

static void kinetis_idle(void)
{
         asm volatile ("wfi");

         /*
          * This is a dirty hack that invalidates the I/D bus cache
          * on Kinetis K70. This must be done after idle.
          */
         writel(readl(IOMEM(0xe0082000)) | 0x85000000, IOMEM(0xe0082000));
}

static int __init kinetis_idle_init(void)
{
         arm_pm_idle = kinetis_idle;
         return 0;
}

arch_initcall(kinetis_idle_init);

Et voila:

(gdb) c
Continuing.
