H A D | cacheinfo.c | dfea747d Fri Oct 28 03:45:31 CDT 2016 Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@arm.com> drivers: base: cacheinfo: support DT overrides for cache properties
Few architectures like x86, ia64 and s390 derive the cache topology and all the properties using a specific architected mechanism while some other architectures like powerpc all those information id derived from the device tree.
On ARM, both the mechanism is used. While all the cache properties can be derived in a architected way, it needs to rely on device tree to get the cache topology information.
However there are few platforms where this architected mechanism is broken and the device tree properties can be used to override these incorrect values.
This patch adds support for overriding the cache properties values to the values specified in the device tree.
