+Subject: OMAP3: workaround for ARM Cortex-A8 erratum 725233
+X-Git-Url: http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot%2Fu-boot-arm.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=42d97d08838d4e010d80c92ad1300c426320dd18
+
+OMAP3: workaround for ARM Cortex-A8 erratum 725233
+
+725233: PLD instructions executed with PLD data forwarding
+enabled can result in a processor deadlock
+
+This deadlock can happen when NEON load instructions are used together
+with cache preload instructions (PLD). The problematic conditions
+can be triggered in-the-wild by NEON optimized functions from pixman
+library (http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pixman), which perform dynamic
+adjustment of prefetch distance.
+
+The workaround disables PLD data forwarding by setting PLD_FWD bit
+in L2 Cache Auxiliary Control Register as recommended in ARM Cortex-A8
+errata list.
+
+The deadlock can only happen on r1pX revisions of Cortex-A8 (used in
+OMAP34xx/OMAP35xx). Performance impact of the workaround is practically
+non-existant.
