[PATCH 02/10] OMAP3 SRAM: add ARM barriers toomap3_sram_configure_core_dpll

From: Paul Walmsley
Date: Tue May 12 2009 - 20:08:27 EST


Add more barriers in the SRAM CORE DPLL M2 divider change code.

- Add a DSB SY after the function's entry point to flush all cached
and buffered writes and wait for the interconnect to claim that they
have completed[1]. The idea here is to force all delayed write
traffic going to the SDRAM to at least post to the L3 interconnect
before continuing. If these writes are allowed to occur after the
SDRC is idled, the writes will not be acknowledged and the ARM will
stall.

Note that in this case, it does not matter if the writes actually
complete to the SDRAM - it is only necessary for the writes to leave
the ARM itself. If the writes are posted by the interconnect when
the SDRC goes into idle, the writes will be delayed until the SDRC
returns from idle[2]. If the SDRC is in the middle of a write when
it is requested to enter idle, the SDRC will not acknowledge the
idle request until the writes complete to the SDRAM.[3]

The old-style DMB in sdram_in_selfrefresh is now superfluous, so,
remove it.

- Add an ISB before the function's exit point to prevent the ARM from
speculatively executing into SDRAM before the SDRAM is enabled[4].
