Description: Writes are equivalent to writing to
|
||||
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/dscr on all CPUs.
|
||||
Reads return the last written value or 0.
|
||||
This value is not a global default: it is a way to set
|
||||
all per-CPU defaults at the same time.
|
||||
Values: 64 bit unsigned integer (bit field)

|

Description: Default value for the Data Stream Control Register (DSCR) on
|
||||
a CPU.
|
||||
This default value is used when the kernel is executing and
|
||||
for any process that has not set the DSCR itself.
|
||||
If a process ever sets the DSCR (via direct access to the
|
||||
SPR) that value will be persisted for that process and used
|
||||
on any CPU where it executes (overriding the value described
|
||||
here).
|
||||
If set by a process it will be inherited by child processes.
|
||||
Values: 64 bit unsigned integer (bit field)
