+ bool "PL310 errata: Clean & Invalidate maintenance operations do not invalidate clean lines"
+ help
+ The PL310 L2 cache controller implements three types of Clean &
+ Invalidate maintenance operations: by Physical Address
+ (offset 0x7F0), by Index/Way (0x7F8) and by Way (0x7FC).
+ They are architecturally defined to behave as the execution of a
+ clean operation followed immediately by an invalidate operation,
+ both performing to the same memory location. This functionality
+ is not correctly implemented in PL310 as clean lines are not
+ invalidated as a result of these operations.
+
+config PL310_ERRATA_727915
+ bool "PL310 errata: Background Clean & Invalidate by Way operation can cause data corruption"
+ help
+ PL310 implements the Clean & Invalidate by Way L2 cache maintenance
+ operation (offset 0x7FC). This operation runs in background so that
+ PL310 can handle normal accesses while it is in progress. Under very
+ rare circumstances, due to this erratum, write data can be lost when
+ PL310 treats a cacheable write transaction during a Clean &
+ Invalidate by Way operation.

+ bool "PL310 errata: cache sync operation may be faulty"
+ help
+ This option enables the workaround for the 753970 PL310 (r3p0) erratum.
+
+ Under some condition the effect of cache sync operation on
+ the store buffer still remains when the operation completes.
+ This means that the store buffer is always asked to drain and
+ this prevents it from merging any further writes. The workaround
+ is to replace the normal offset of cache sync operation (0x730)
+ by another offset targeting an unmapped PL310 register 0x740.
+ This has the same effect as the cache sync operation: store buffer
+ drain and waiting for all buffers empty.
+
+config PL310_ERRATA_769419
+ bool "PL310 errata: no automatic Store Buffer drain"
+ help
+ On revisions of the PL310 prior to r3p2, the Store Buffer does
+ not automatically drain. This can cause normal, non-cacheable
+ writes to be retained when the memory system is idle, leading
+ to suboptimal I/O performance for drivers using coherent DMA.
+ This option adds a write barrier to the cpu_idle loop so that,
+ on systems with an outer cache, the store buffer is drained
+ explicitly.
