Defining cpu_operations now helps adding cpu hotplug
support in proper manner. Moreover, it provides flexibility
in supporting other cpu enable/boot methods can be
supported in future. This patch has been largely inspired from
ARM64. However, a default boot method is defined for RISC-V unlike
ARM64.

Move both cpu_ops and smp_set_cpu_ops() to smpboot.c. This way
you will not require to make cpu_ops as global.

ok.

Further, I think cpu_ops should be a pointer and initial value should
be &default_ops.

Something like this:
struct cpu_operations *cpu_ops __ro_after_init = &default_ops;


That will work too. However, setting it through smp_set_cpu_ops provides a
sample implementation for any future SMP enable methods. That's why I used
the API. I can change it if you think otherwise.

Having thought about this more, I think cpu_ops should be an pointer array
of NR_CPUS size. This means its not necessary to have have same ops for
all CPUs. The ARM64 implementation of CPU operations also allows separate
CPU operations for each CPU.


I initially had NR_CPUs based pointer array implementation similar to arm64. However, I couldn't find a use case for it. So I removed it.


For example, let's us assume that we have an SOC where we 2 cores
per-cluster and N clusters. All CPUs of cluster0 comes up at the same time
whereas cluster1 onwards we have to bring-up CPUs using special HW
mechanism.


I was not aware of such a use case. If that's a valid possible future use case, we should make it pointer array implementation. I will add it in v2

I think having dedicated source file for default_ops makes more sense
so that we have a clear/simple reference implementation of cpu_operations.

Eventually, we might have one source file for each type of SMP enable
method.

Try to keep smpboot.c generic and independent of any cpu_operations.
What say?


Any other SMP enable method should definitely get its own file. I am not
sure about the default one though. As default_ops is truly the default
booting method which will always be present in absence of anything else, I
thought keeping it smpboot.c emphasizes that point. Moreover, it's not that
big even. But I am open to moving to it's own source file if you strongly
think we should do that.


I am more inclined towards keeping default_ops in separate source but it's
not a big deal. Let's wait for more comments.
