Subject: [PATCH 5.4 11/18] riscv,entry: fix misaligned base for excp_vect_table
Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2021 16:48:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210415144413.405406849@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210415144413.055232956@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Zihao Yu <yuzihao@ict.ac.cn>

[ Upstream commit ac8d0b901f0033b783156ab2dc1a0e73ec42409b ]

In RV64, the size of each entry in excp_vect_table is 8 bytes. If the
base of the table is not 8-byte aligned, loading an entry in the table
will raise a misaligned exception. Although such exception will be
handled by opensbi/bbl, this still causes performance degradation.
