Traditionally the asic will last multiple generations of server before being replaced. Info about SoC: HPE GXP is the name of the HPE Soc. This SoC is used to implement many BMC features at HPE. It supports ARMv7 architecture based on the Cortex A9 core. It is capable of using an AXI bus to which a memory controller is attached. It has multiple SPI interfaces to connect boot flash and BIOS flash. It uses a 10/100/1000 MAC for network connectivity. It has multiple i2c engines to drive connectivity with a host infrastructure. The initial patches enable the watchdog and timer enabling the host to be able to boot." * hpe/gxp-soc: MAINTAINERS: Introduce HPE GXP Architecture ARM: dts: Introduce HPE GXP Device tree dt-bindings: arm: hpe: add GXP Support dt-bindings: timer: hpe,gxp-timer: Add HPE GXP Timer and Watchdog clocksource/drivers/timer-gxp: Add HPE GXP Timer watchdog: hpe-wdt: Introduce HPE GXP Watchdog ARM: configs: multi_v7_defconfig: Add HPE GXP ARCH ARM: hpe: Introduce the HPE GXP architecture Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> 2022-05-26T17:50:30Z Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org 2022-05-26T17:50:30Z urn:sha1:16477cdfefdb494235a675cc80563d736991d833 Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann: "The asm-generic tree contains three separate changes for linux-5.19: - The h8300 architecture is retired after it has been effectively unmaintained for a number of years.

The GXP supports several different kinds of timers but for the purpose of this driver there is only support for the General Timer. The timer has a 1us resolution and is 32 bits. The timer also creates a child watchdog device as the register region is the same.

It is now the only one that does not support MMUs at all, and most of the boards only support 4MB of RAM, out of which the defconfig kernel needs more than half just for .text/.data. Guenter Roeck did the original patch to remove the architecture in 2013 after it had already been obsolete for a while, and Yoshinori Sato brought it back in a much more modern form in 2015. Looking at the git history since the reinstantiation, it's clear that almost all commits in the tree are build fixes or cross-architecture cleanups: $ git log --no-merges --format=%an v4.5.. arch/h8300/ | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -n 12 25 Masahiro Yamada 18 Christoph Hellwig 14 Mike Rapoport 9 Arnd Bergmann 8 Mark Rutland 7 Peter Zijlstra 6 Kees Cook 6 Ingo Molnar 6 Al Viro 5 Randy Dunlap 4 Yury Norov Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> 2022-03-24T01:03:08Z Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org 2022-03-24T01:03:08Z urn:sha1:194dfe88d62ed12d0cf30f6f20734c2d0d111533 Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann: "There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree: - The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.

Support was added to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes employees. As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V, and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline support any more. While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.
