From 97f4ad29dae24861dc08bfea48b1b446fc195d99 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markos Chandras Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 09:37:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: cpu: Add 'noftlb' kernel command line option to disable the FTLB Add new 'noftlb' kernel command line option to disable the FTLB. Since the kernel command line is not available when probing and enabling the CPU features in cpu_probe(), we let the kernel configure the FTLB during the config4 decode operation and we disable the FTLB later on, once the command line has become available to us. This should have no negative effects since FTLB isn't used so early in the boot process. FTLB increases the effective TLB size leading to less TLB misses. However, sometimes it's useful to be able to disable it when debugging memory related core features or other hardware components.
