Each errata workaround is identified by its `ID` as specified in the processor's
errata notice document. The format of the define used to enable/disable the
-errata is `ERRATA_<Processor name>_<ID>` where the `Processor name`
-is either `A57` for the `Cortex_A57` CPU or `A53` for `Cortex_A53` CPU.
+errata workaround is `ERRATA_<Processor name>_<ID>`, where the `Processor name`
+is for example `A57` for the `Cortex_A57` CPU.
All workarounds are disabled by default. The platform is reponsible for
enabling these workarounds according to its requirement by defining the
sequence. Each Cortex-A57 based platform must make its own decision on
whether to use the optimization.
+* `A53_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT`: This flag disables the cache non-temporal
+ hint. The LDNP/STNP instructions as implemented on Cortex-A53 do not behave
+ in a way most programmers expect, and will most probably result in a
+ significant speed degradation to any code that employs them. The ARMv8-A
+ architecture (see ARM DDI 0487A.h, section D3.4.3) allows cores to ignore
+ the non-temporal hint and treat LDNP/STNP as LDP/STP instead. Enabling this
+ flag enforces this behaviour. This needs to be enabled only for revisions
+ <= r0p3 of the CPU and is enabled by default.
+
+* `A57_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT`: This flag has the same behaviour as
+ `A53_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT` but for Cortex-A57. This needs to be
+ enabled only for revisions <= r1p2 of the CPU and is enabled by default.
