Re: aarch64 libarch



Do we need this? Can't you use __builtin___clear_cache instead?

Any preferences for names for them ?

How about:

aarch64_sync_icache(2)

in

/usr/lib/libaarch64.so

I have written a first go at the kernel side.

Do we want to still share sysarch.h between arm32 and aarch64 ?

If keeping the shared header then an alternative design could be
to keep the name of the userland function as arm_sync_icache(2) but
still put it in /usr/lib/aarch64.so.
