This is first step in eliminating struct cpuinfo_arc[NR_CPUS] Back when we had just ARCompact ISA, the idea was to read/bit-fiddle the BCRs once and and cache decoded information in a global struct ready to use. With ARCv2 it was modified to contained abstract / ISA agnostic information. However with ARCv3 there 's too much disparity to abstract in common structures. So drop the entire decode once and store paradigm. Afterall there's only 2 users of this machinery anyways: boot printing and cat /proc/cpuinfo. None is performance critical to warrant locking away resident memory per cpu. This patch is first step in that direction - decouples struct cpuinfo_arc_mmu from global struct cpuinfo_arc - mmu code still has a trimmed down static version of struct cpuinfo_arc_mmu to cache information needed in performance critical code such as tlb flush routines - folds read_decode_mmu_bcr() into arc_mmu_mumbojumbo() - setup_processor() directly calls arc_mmu_init() and not via arc_cpu_init() Tested-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202308151213.qKZPMiyz-lkp@intel.com/ Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
