Hello Stafford and Geert,

Thank you for the reviews.

Yes, cache_desc.size will be zero when there's no cache component since
cpuinfo_or1k[NR_CPUS] is declared as a global variable in setup.c. The
cache attributes are stored in this struct.

There are a few places (e.g. cache_loop() in cache.c) where
cpuinfo_or1k[smp_processor_id()] is not being referenced. This will have to be
referenced to access cache_desc. In these cases, I think it would be better to
read from the SPR instead. For consistency, the SPR can also be read where
cpuinfo_or1k[smp_processor_id()] is already being referenced.

Sorry, I must have missed this. I'll fix it.

Understood.

Right. I'll see what can be done to keep it concise.

Given that there'll be generic local_(i|d)cache_range_inv(start, stop) utility
functions, would it make sense to simply have a macro defined as:

#define local_icache_block_inv(addr) local_icache_range_inv(start, L1_CACHE_BYTES)

instead of having a separate function for invalidating a single cache line? This would
still use cache_loop() under the hood. The alternative would be to use
local_icache_range_inv(start, L1_CACHE_BYTES) directly but using the macro might be
more readable.

Thanks,
Sahil
