Because from the move and commit message it reads like a styling choice ;-) . I do agree that it makes more sense as child of cpus, but the commit message should also elaborate on why that would matter for stable.

Thanks for your feedback! Perhaps it would be the best to simply drop the submission to stable kernels... Believe it or not, :) I spent a fair amount of time deliberating over the submission to stable, but now I think it's simply better to omit that and not increase the amount of patches that go into stable unnecessary. Would you like me to send the v2 with no Cc to stable, or would you prefer to drop that line yourself? >> Signed-off-by: Dragan Simic <dsimic@manjaro.org> >> --- >> arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi | 24 >> ++++++++++++------------ >> 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> index 4690be841a1c..9f7136e5d553 100644 >> --- a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> +++ b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> @@ -113,19 +113,19 @@ cpu3: cpu@300 { >> d-cache-sets = <128>; >> next-level-cache = <&l3_cache>; >> }; >> - }; >> >> - /* >> - * There are no private per-core L2 caches, but only the >> - * L3 cache that appears to the CPU cores as L2 caches >> - */ >> - l3_cache: l3-cache { >> - compatible = "cache"; >> - cache-level = <2>; >> - cache-unified; >> - cache-size = <0x80000>; >> - cache-line-size = <64>; >> - cache-sets = <512>; >> + /* >> + * There are no private per-core L2 caches, but only the >> + * L3 cache that appears to the CPU cores as L2 caches >> + */ >> + l3_cache: l3-cache { >> + compatible = "cache"; >> + cache-level = <2>; >> + cache-unified; >> + cache-size = <0x80000>; >> + cache-line-size = <64>; >> + cache-sets = <512>; >> + }; >> }; >> >> cpu0_opp_table: opp-table-0 { >> > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-rockchip mailing list > Linux-rockchip@lists.infradead.org > http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-rockchip

I'm hopeful that I'll remember to drop it :-), so I guess no need to resend for that. Heiko

Except it does arguably represent the physical topology - the L3 cache doesn't belong to the CPUs, it belongs to the DSU, which very much is "outside" the CPUs.

That's a very good point, thanks! I knew there must have been a very good reason why I placed the L3 cache outside the CPUs originally, in the commit 8612169a05c5 referenced below, but I also somehow managed to forget that reason for a moment. :) Let's drop this patch, and I'll submit another patch for the RK3588 SoC dtsi files that moves the L3 cache outside the CPUs, to reflect the physical topology better. >> Fixes: 8612169a05c5 ("arm64: dts: rockchip: Add cache information to >> the SoC dtsi for RK356x") >> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org >> Signed-off-by: Dragan Simic <dsimic@manjaro.org> >> --- >> arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi | 24 >> ++++++++++++------------ >> 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> index 4690be841a1c..9f7136e5d553 100644 >> --- a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> +++ b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >> @@ -113,19 +113,19 @@ cpu3: cpu@300 { >> d-cache-sets = <128>; >> next-level-cache = <&l3_cache>; >> }; >> - }; >> - /* >> - * There are no private per-core L2 caches, but only the >> - * L3 cache that appears to the CPU cores as L2 caches >> - */ >> - l3_cache: l3-cache { >> - compatible = "cache"; >> - cache-level = <2>; >> - cache-unified; >> - cache-size = <0x80000>; >> - cache-line-size = <64>; >> - cache-sets = <512>; >> + /* >> + * There are no private per-core L2 caches, but only the >> + * L3 cache that appears to the CPU cores as L2 caches >> + */ >> + l3_cache: l3-cache { >> + compatible = "cache"; >> + cache-level = <2>; >> + cache-unified; >> + cache-size = <0x80000>; >> + cache-line-size = <64>; >> + cache-sets = <512>; >> + }; >> }; >> cpu0_opp_table: opp-table-0 { >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Linux-rockchip mailing list >> Linux-rockchip@lists.infradead.org >> http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-rockchip > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-rockchip mailing list > Linux-rockchip@lists.infradead.org > http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-rockchip
