Subject: [PATCH v2 02/15] dt-bindings: ARM SPE: highlight the need for PPI partitions on heterogeneous systems
Date: Thu, 23 May 2019 11:34:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190523103502.25925-3-sudeep.holla@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190523103502.25925-1-sudeep.holla@arm.com>
It's not entirely clear for the binding document that the only way to
express ARM SPE affined to a subset of CPUs on a heterogeneous systems
is through the use of PPI partitions available in the interrupt
controller bindings.
Let's make it clear.
