I can never remember what we discussed about particular bits in the past though. Is this bit something we could add a binding for, or could we make it enabled by default? I assume you have to add it because the boot loader sets the wrong default, right?

Note that I only try to preserve the register value before and after migrating to generic l2c OF initialization. I did read (part of) the pl310 documentation, but it's still not clear to me if we really need L2C_AUX_CTRL_SHARED_OVERRIDE. Perhaps this was just copied from somewhere else without much afterthought?

Maybe you can remove that override completely and the initial Linux default was just set to the same that is already set on powerup?

Yes, it boots with 0x02040000, i.e. L2C_AUX_CTRL_SHARED_OVERRIDE (bit 22) is not set. After the l2c driver is finished with it, it contains 0x46440001. > Maybe you can remove that override completely and the initial Linux > default was just set to the same that is already set on powerup?

I see. I guess someone understand the effect of this flag. Does it make a difference on the machine you are looking at? I've read the spec at http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ddi0246a/DDI0246A_l2cc_pl310_r0p0_trm.pdf on the topic but couldn't make sense of it to understand whether a particular setting might be required for specific hardware or might be a performance optimization.
