-=======================================
-Silicon Errata and Software Workarounds
-=======================================
-
-Author: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

-Date : 27 November 2015

-It is an unfortunate fact of life that hardware is often produced with
-so-called "errata", which can cause it to deviate from the architecture
-under specific circumstances. For hardware produced by ARM, these
-errata are broadly classified into the following categories:
-
- ========== ========================================================
- Category A A critical error without a viable workaround.
- Category B A significant or critical error with an acceptable
- workaround.
- Category C A minor error that is not expected to occur under normal
- operation.
- ========== ========================================================
-
-For more information, consult one of the "Software Developers Errata
-Notice" documents available on infocenter.arm.com (registration
-required).
-
-As far as Linux is concerned, Category B errata may require some special
-treatment in the operating system. For example, avoiding a particular
-sequence of code, or configuring the processor in a particular way. A
-less common situation may require similar actions in order to declassify
-a Category A erratum into a Category C erratum. These are collectively
-known as "software workarounds" and are only required in the minority of
-cases (e.g. those cases that both require a non-secure workaround *and*
-can be triggered by Linux).
-
-For software workarounds that may adversely impact systems unaffected by
-the erratum in question, a Kconfig entry is added under "Kernel
-Features" -> "ARM errata workarounds via the alternatives framework".
-These are enabled by default and patched in at runtime when an affected
-CPU is detected. For less-intrusive workarounds, a Kconfig option is not
-available and the code is structured (preferably with a comment) in such
-a way that the erratum will not be hit.
-
-This approach can make it slightly onerous to determine exactly which
-errata are worked around in an arbitrary kernel source tree, so this
-file acts as a registry of software workarounds in the Linux Kernel and
-will be updated when new workarounds are committed and backported to
-stable kernels.
