Why This File Exists
CPU and platform-specific kernel glue: boot entry, traps, syscall entry, interrupts, page tables, context switch, and low-level barriers.
- CPU and platform-specific kernel glue: boot entry, traps, syscall entry, interrupts, page tables, context switch, and low-level barriers.
- Allocates kernel memory; connect allocation flags and lifetime to context constraints.

#ifdef CONFIG_ISA_ARCOMPACT
;-----------------------------------------------------------------
; ARC700 Exception Handling doesn't auto-switch stack and it only provides
; ONE scratch AUX reg "ARC_REG_SCRATCH_DATA0"
;
; For Non-SMP, the scratch AUX reg is repurposed to cache task PGD, so a
; "global" is used to free-up FIRST core reg to be able to code the rest of
; exception prologue (IRQ auto-disabled on Exceptions, so it's IRQ-safe).
; Since the Fast Path TLB Miss handler is coded with 4 regs, the remaining 3
; need to be saved as well by extending the "global" to be 4 words. Hence
; ".size ex_saved_reg1, 16"
; [All of this dance is to avoid stack switching for each TLB Miss, since we
; only need to save only a handful of regs, as opposed to complete reg file]
;
; For ARC700 SMP, the "global" obviously can't be used for free up the FIRST
; core reg as it will not be SMP safe.
; Thus scratch AUX reg is used (and no longer used to cache task PGD).
; To save the rest of 3 regs - per cpu, the global is made "per-cpu".
; Epilogue thus has to locate the "per-cpu" storage for regs.
; To avoid cache line bouncing the per-cpu global is aligned/sized per
; L1_CACHE_SHIFT, despite fundamentally needing to be 12 bytes only. Hence
; ".size ex_saved_reg1, (CONFIG_NR_CPUS << L1_CACHE_SHIFT)"
; As simple as that....

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/linkage.h`, `linux/pgtable.h`, `asm/entry.h`, `asm/mmu.h`, `asm/arcregs.h`, `asm/cache.h`, `asm/processor.h`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/arc.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
