commit 884a82a685d65ee016dd73fa9e9e5e3488a79c4a Author: Ronald G. Minnich rminnich@google.com Date: Wed Feb 20 09:24:29 2013 -0800
ARMV7: minor tweaks to inter-stage calling and payload handling.
Payloads, by design, can return. There's lots of mechanism in the payload code to support it, and the chooser payload relies on it. Hence, we should not mark the function call in exit_stage as noreturn.
Not all ARM have unified caches, and it's not always easy to tell what to do. So we are very paranoid. Before we call between stages, we should carefully flush the dcache to memory and invalidate the icache. This may be more than is necessary on all architectures but it doesn't really hurt for the most part.
So compile cache management code into all stages, and call the flush dcache/invalidate icache from all stages.
