Series | arm64: provide pseudo NMI with GICv3 | expand |
Hi, This series + the core NMI patches can be fetched from: git clone http://linux-arm.org/linux-jt.git -b v4.20-pseudo-nmi Thanks, Julien On 12/12/2018 16:47, Julien Thierry wrote: > Hi, > > This series is a continuation of the work started by Daniel [1].
