Subject: ARM: Workaround for erratum 451034
X-Git-Url: http://git.mansr.com/?p=linux-omap;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b84fa87873ffb68ad23930cf6cddeea8bec43ede
ARM: Workaround for erratum 451034
On Cortex-A8 r1p0 and r1p1, executing a NEON store with an integer
store in the store buffer, can cause a processor deadlock under
certain conditions.
Executing a DMB instruction before saving NEON/VFP registers and before
return to userspace makes it safe to run code which includes similar
counter-measures. Userspace code can still trigger the deadlock, so
a different workaround is required to safely run untrusted code.
See ARM Cortex-A8 Errata Notice (PR120-PRDC-008070) for full details.
