/*
 * Cache instructions on ARM:
 * ARMv8.0-a    DC CVAC  - cache clean to Point of Coherency
 *                         Meant for thread synchronization, usually implies
 *                         real memory flush but may mean less.
 * ARMv8.2-a    DC CVAP  - cache clean to Point of Persistency
 *                         Meant exactly for our use.
 * ARMv8.5-a    DC CVADP - cache clean to Point of Deep Persistency
 *                         As of mid-2019 not on any commercially available CPU.
 * Any of the above may be disabled for EL0, but it's probably safe to consider
 * that a system configuration error.
 * Other flags include I (like "DC CIVAC") that invalidates the cache line, but
 * we don't want that.
 *
 * Memory fences:
 * * DMB [ISH]    MFENCE
 * * DMB [ISH]ST  SFENCE
 * * DMB [ISH]LD  LFENCE
 *
 * Memory domains (cache coherency):
 * * non-shareable - local to a single core
 * * inner shareable (ISH) - a group of CPU clusters/sockets/other hardware
 *      Linux requires that anything within one operating system/hypervisor
 *      is within the same Inner Shareable domain.
 * * outer shareable (OSH) - one or more separate ISH domains
 * * full system (SY) - anything that can possibly access memory
 * Docs: ARM DDI 0487E.a page B2-144.
 *
 * Exception (privilege) levels:
 * * EL0 - userspace (ring 3)
 * * EL1 - kernel (ring 0)
 * * EL2 - hypervisor (ring -1)
 * * EL3 - "secure world" (ring -3)
