Gregory CLEMENT
I Embedded Linux engineer and trainer at Free Electrons since
2010
I Embedded Linux development: kernel and driver
development, system integration, boot time and power
consumption optimization, consulting, etc.
I Embedded Linux training, Linux driver development training
and Android system development training, with materials
freely available under a Creative Commons license.
I
I Contributing to kernel support for the Armada 370, 375,
38x and Armada XP ARM SoCs from Marvell.
I Co-maintainer of mvebu sub-architecture (SoCs from Marvell
Engineering Business Unit)
I Living near Lyon, France
Free Electrons. Kernel, drivers and embedded Linux development, consulting, training and support. 2/31
Motivation and Overview
I Motivation
I All the new ARM CPUs are now SMP capable.
I Most of the new ARM SoCs actually uses multiple CPUs.
I Did SMP bring up for two kinds of ARM SoCs during past year.
I Documentation I would have like to ?nd.
I Overview
I SMP operations and functions.
I Implementation of these functions.
I Issues encountered during SMP bring up.
Free Electrons. Kernel, drivers and embedded Linux development, consulting, training and support. 3/31
SMP on ARM SoC?
I A symmetric multiprocessor system (SMP) is a multiprocessor
system with centralized shared memory called main memory
(MM) operating under a single operating system with two or
more homogeneous processors. (Wikipedia)
I Most of the SMP code is not architecture dependent (in
kernel directory).
I Most of the hardware support is related to the ARM
speci?cation.
I SoC level: all that is beyond the CPU, mainly initialization
and power down the CPUs.
Free Electrons. Kernel, drivers and embedded Linux development, consulting, training and support. 4/31
Assumptions
I SoC support is worki
