[PATCH] arm64: dts: allwinner: Add cache information to the SoC dtsi for H6

From: Dragan Simic
Date: Sun Apr 28 2024 - 07:40:58 EST


Add missing cache information to the Allwinner H6 SoC dtsi, to allow
the userspace, which includes lscpu(1) that uses the virtual files provided
by the kernel under the /sys/devices/system/cpu directory, to display the
proper H6 cache information.

Adding the cache information to the H6 SoC dtsi also makes the following
warning message in the kernel log go away:

cacheinfo: Unable to detect cache hierarchy for CPU 0

The cache parameters for the H6 dtsi were obtained and partially derived
by hand from the cache size and layout specifications found in the following
datasheets and technical reference manuals:

- Allwinner H6 V200 datasheet, version 1.1
- ARM Cortex-A53 revision r0p3 TRM, version E

For future reference, here's a brief summary of the documentation:

- All caches employ the 64-byte cache line length
- Each Cortex-A53 core has 32 KB of L1 2-way, set-associative instruction
cache and 32 KB of L1 4-way, set-associative data cache
- The entire SoC has 512 KB of unified L2 16-way, set-associative cache
