+ + psci { + compatible = "arm,psci-0.2"; + method = "smc"; + };What are you using as your PSCI 0.2 implementation? Is it fully compliant? (e.g. are the reset and power off functions implemented, may CPU0 be hotplugged)? Given only portions of the GIC seem to be described below, what exception level is your kernel entered at? Per the spec it should be EL2, but given the brokenness below with the GIC I'm suspicious.Currently we only implement CPU boot, no power off, no CPU0 hotplug either. And enter kernel at EL2. Actually, we run ATF in EL3, then switch to EL2 to run lk and kernel.Ok. In the absence of CPU_OFF, this is not yet a conforming PSCI 0.2 implementation, so I'm wary of marking this as PSCI 0.2 until that is the case. Any attempt to power of CPUs will hit a BUG() in cpu_die(), and we don't want that.
We are still developing PSCI related functions, CPU_ON, CPU_OFF, CPU_SUSPEND are ready, others are going. PSCI 0.2 is our target although lacks some implements
Is CPU0 hotplug planned?
No
If not, does your PSCI implementation report CPU0 as non-hotpluggable via MIGRATE_INFO_TYPE reporting a UP not migratable trusted OS (and MIGRATE_INFO_UP_CPU reporting CPU0 as the resident CPU)?
Will check whether add this
Are SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET available?
No yet
Thanks, Mark.
Since we miss some PSCI-0.2 implements, I don't know whether I should remove PSCI stuff in this patch.
