* ARM L2 Cache Controller
ARM cores often have a separate level 2 cache controller. There are various
implementations of the L2 cache controller with compatible programming models.
Some of the properties that are just prefixed "cache-*" are taken from section
3.7.3 of the ePAPR v1.1 specification which can be found at:
https://www.power.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Power_ePAPR_APPROVED_v1.1.pdf
The ARM L2 cache representation in the device tree should be done as follows:
Required properties:
- compatible : should be one of:
"arm,pl310-cache"
"arm,l220-cache"
"arm,l210-cache"
"bcm,bcm11351-a2-pl310-cache": DEPRECATED by "brcm,bcm11351-a2-pl310-cache"
"brcm,bcm11351-a2-pl310-cache": For Broadcom bcm11351 chipset where an
offset needs to be added to the address before passing down to the L2
cache controller
"marvell,aurora-system-cache": Marvell Controller designed to be
compatible with the ARM one, with system cache mode (meaning
maintenance operations on L1 are broadcasted to the L2 and L2
performs the same operation).
"marvell,aurora-outer-cache": Marvell Controller designed to be
compatible with the ARM one with outer cache mode.
"marvell,tauros3-cache": Marvell Tauros3 cache controller, compatible
with arm,pl310-cache controller.
- cache-unified : Specifies the cache is a unified cache.
- cache-level : Should be set to 2 for a level 2 cache.
- reg : Physical base address and size of cache controller's memory mapped
registers.
Optional properties:
- arm,data-latency : Cycles of latency for Data RAM accesses. Specifies 3 cells of
read, write and setup latencies. Minimum valid values are 1. Controllers
without setup latency control should use a value of 0.
- arm,tag-latency : Cycles of latency for Tag RAM accesses. Specifies 3 cells of
read, write and setup latencies. Controllers without setup latency control
should use 0. Controllers without separate read and write Tag RAM latency
values should only use the first cell.
- arm,dirty-latency : Cycles of latency for Dirty RAMs. This is a single cell.
- arm,filter-ranges : <start length> Starting address and length of window to
filter. Addresses in the filter window are directed to the M1 port. Other
addresses will go to the M0 port.
- arm,io-coherent : indicates that the system is operating in an hardware
I/O coherent mode. Valid only when the arm,pl310-cache compatible
string is used.
- interrupts : 1 combined interrupt.
- cache-size : specifies the size in bytes of the cache
- cache-sets : specifies the number of associativity sets of the cache
- cache-block-size : specifies the size in bytes of a cache block
- cache-line-size : specifies the size in bytes of a line in the cache,
if this is not specified, the line size is assumed to be equal to the
cache block size
- cache-id-part: cache id part number to be used if it is not present
on hardware
- wt-override: If present then L2 is forced to Write through mode
Example:
L2: cache-controller {
compatible = "arm,pl310-cache";
reg = <0xfff12000 0x1000>;
arm,data-latency = <1 1 1>;
arm,tag-latency = <2 2 2>;
arm,filter-ranges = <0x80000000 0x8000000>;
cache-unified;
cache-level = <2>;
interrupts = <45>;
