365 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
366 erratum 826319 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 with an AMBA 4 ACE or
367 AXI master interface and an L2 cache.
369 If a Cortex-A53 uses an AMBA AXI4 ACE interface to other processors
370 and is unable to accept a certain write via this interface, it will

376 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,

383 bool "Cortex-A53: 827319: Data cache clean instructions might cause overlapping transactions to the interconnect"
385 select ARM64_WORKAROUND_CLEAN_CACHE
387 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
388 erratum 827319 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 with an AMBA 5 CHI
389 master interface and an L2 cache.
391 Under certain conditions this erratum can cause a clean line eviction
392 to occur at the same time as another transaction to the same address
393 on the AMBA 5 CHI interface, which can cause data corruption if the
394 interconnect reorders the two transactions.
396 The workaround promotes data cache clean instructions to
397 data cache clean-and-invalidate.
398 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
399 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
400 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

409 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
410 erratum 824069 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p2 when it is connected
411 to a coherent interconnect.
413 If a Cortex-A53 processor is executing a store or prefetch for
414 write instruction at the same time as a processor in another
415 cluster is executing a cache maintenance operation to the same
416 address, then this erratum might cause a clean cache line to be
417 incorrectly marked as dirty.
419 The workaround promotes data cache clean instructions to
420 data cache clean-and-invalidate.
421 Please note that this option does not necessarily enable the
422 workaround, as it depends on the alternative framework, which will
423 only patch the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

436 If the processor is executing a load and store exclusive sequence at
437 the same time as a processor in another cluster is executing a cache
438 maintenance operation to the same address, then this erratum might
439 cause data corruption.

454 erratum 832075 on Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2.
456 Affected Cortex-A57 parts might deadlock when exclusive load/store
457 instructions to Write-Back memory are mixed with Device loads.
459 The workaround is to promote device loads to use Load-Acquire
461 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
462 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
463 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
467 config ARM64_ERRATUM_834220
468 bool "Cortex-A57: 834220: Stage 2 translation fault might be incorrectly reported in presence of a Stage 1 fault"
472 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
473 erratum 834220 on Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2.
475 Affected Cortex-A57 parts might report a Stage 2 translation
476 fault as the result of a Stage 1 fault for load crossing a
477 page boundary when there is a permission or device memory
478 alignment fault at Stage 1 and a translation fault at Stage 2.
480 The workaround is to verify that the Stage 1 translation
481 doesn't generate a fault before handling the Stage 2 fault.
482 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
483 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
484 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
488 config ARM64_ERRATUM_845719
489 bool "Cortex-A53: 845719: a load might read incorrect data"
493 This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
494 erratum 845719 on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p4.
496 When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on an affected Cortex-A53
497 part, a load at EL0 from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32
498 bits of the virtual address used by a recent load at (AArch64) EL1
499 might return incorrect data.
501 The workaround is to write the contextidr_el1 register on exception
502 return to a 32-bit task.
503 Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
504 as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
505 the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.

514 This option links the kernel with '--fix-cortex-a53-843419' and

522 bool "Cortex-A55: 1024718: Update of DBM/AP bits without break before make might result in incorrect update"
525 This option adds a workaround for ARM Cortex-A55 Erratum 1024718.
527 Affected Cortex-A55 cores (r0p0, r0p1, r1p0) could cause incorrect
528 update of the hardware dirty bit when the DBM/AP bits are updated
529 without a break-before-make. The workaround is to disable the usage

541 errata 1188873 and 1418040.

602 address for a cacheable mapping of a location is being
603 accessed by a core while another core is remapping the virtual
604 address to a new physical page using the recommended
605 break-before-make sequence, then under very rare circumstances
606 TLBI+DSB completes before a read using the translation being
607 invalidated has been observed by other observers. The
608 workaround repeats the TLBI+DSB operation.

611 bool "Cortex-A76: Software Step might prevent interrupt recognition"
614 This option adds a workaround for Arm Cortex-A76 erratum 1463225.
616 On the affected Cortex-A76 cores (r0p0 to r3p1), software stepping
617 of a system call instruction (SVC) can prevent recognition of
618 subsequent interrupts when software stepping is disabled in the
619 exception handler of the system call and either kernel debugging
620 is enabled or VHE is in use.

745 accesses may cause undefined fault (Data abort, DFSC=0b111111).
746 This fault occurs under a specific hardware condition when a

1417 Virtualization Host Extensions (VHE) allow the kernel to run
1418 directly at EL2 (instead of EL1) on processors that support
1419 it. This leads to better performance for KVM, as they reduce
1420 the cost of the world switch.

1450 On CPUs with these extensions system software can use additional

1492 Choosing this option will cause the kernel to initialise secret keys

1496 If the compiler supports the -mbranch-protection or

1707 booting the kernel. If unsure and you are not observing these

1710 CPUs that support SVE are architecturally required to support the
