[PATCH] ARM: dts: vf610: describe the L2 cache geometry
Posted by Mehmet Fide 1 month, 2 weeks ago
From: Mehmet Fide <mehmet.fide@screeningeagle.com>

The L2 node names the controller and its level, but not its size, line
size or set count, so cacheinfo cannot describe the last level of the
hierarchy even though the cpu node already points at it.

Fill them in from the Vybrid reference manual (NXP VFXXXRM), section
3.2.3: 8 way set associative, 512 KB, 32 byte line, so 2048 sets.

Not tested on VF610 silicon, the values come from the manual. The
matching change for the L1 caches was tested on a VF500.
