Hi All,
I have a imx8qm based board and I want to know cpus on it, as it have a cortex a53 and cortex a72 cpus
We have this api
static inline unsigned int read_midr(void)
{
unsigned long val;
asm volatile("mrs %0, midr_el1" : "=r" (val));
return val;
}
#define is_cortex_a35() (((read_midr() & MIDR_PARTNUM_MASK) >> MIDR_PARTNUM_SHIFT) == MIDR_PARTNUM_CORTEX_A35)
#define is_cortex_a53() (((read_midr() & MIDR_PARTNUM_MASK) >> MIDR_PARTNUM_SHIFT) == MIDR_PARTNUM_CORTEX_A53)
#define is_cortex_a72() (((read_midr() & MIDR_PARTNUM_MASK) >> MIDR_PARTNUM_SHIFT) == MIDR_PARTNUM_CORTEX_A72)
The problem here is if I use
is_cortex_a72()
I get return as 1, but if I use
is_cortex_a53()
I get 0.
Does that mean there is no a53 cpu or we need to modify something here?
