[PATCH RFC 03/15] arm_mpam: Add device tree support for MSC probing

From: Yin Li

Date: Tue Aug 11 2026 - 09:44:03 EST


From: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx>

The MPAM driver currently discovers MSCs only via ACPI. Add a device
tree path so MSCs can be probed on DT-based platforms: parse MSC nodes
from the device tree, compute cache-id and affinity from the cache
nodes and create the RIS entries.

Signed-off-by: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx>
[ Yin Li: fix context conflicts; drop the existing ACPI-only stub of
mpam_get_cpumask_from_cache_id() which conflicted with the new
implementation that supports both ACPI and DT; fix
update_msc_accessibility() return type conflict: drop the existing
void implementation and apply the int version from this patch ]
