2007-02-06[ARM] Move processor_modes[] to .../process.cRussell King3-12/+9
bad_mode() currently prints the mode which caused the exception, and then causes an oops dump to be printed which again displays this information (since the CPSR in the struct pt_regs is correct.) This leads to processor_modes[] being shared between traps.c and process.c with a local declaration of it. We can clean this up by moving processor_modes[] to process.c and removing the duplication, resulting in processor_modes[] becoming static. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-01-24[ARM] 4102/1: Allow for PHYS_OFFSET on any valid 2MiB addressLinus Walleij1-1/+6
This patchs allows the offset to the first page of physical memory to be on any 2MB boundary whereas the previous code could only handle psysical offset to any 16MB boundary (0xNN000000) or any 1MB boundary below 0x01000000 (e.g. 0x00N00000). The problem is a consequence of the orr one-byte syntax, so we fix this and we can place the first bank of memory at 0x28e00000. I have also included an explicit check that disallow compilation when PHYS_OFFSET is not on a 2MiB boundary. head.S would be the proper place to have this at since this is the first file that attempts to use PHYS_OFFSET during compile.

2007-01-08[ARM] Provide basic printk_clock() implementationRussell King1-0/+11
Current sched_clock() implementations on ARM cause unbootable kernels with PRINTK_TIME support enabled. To avoid this, provide a basic printk_clock() implementation which avoids sched_clock() being called before the page tables have been set up. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-01-06[ARM] Fix kernel-mode undefined instruction abortsRussell King1-4/+8
If the kernel attempts to execute a CP1 or CP2 instruction and it aborts, and a FP emulator is not loaded, we try to return as if to a user context, instead of the proper kernel context. Since the fault came from kernel mode, we must use the kernel return paths. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2006-12-07[ARM] 3983/2: remove unused argument to __bug()Nicolas Pitre1-5/+2
It appears that include/asm-arm/bug.h requires include/linux/stddef.h for the definition of NULL. It seems that stddef.h was always included indirectly in most cases, and that issue was properly fixed a while ago. Then commit 5047f09b56d0bc3c21aec9cb16de60283da645c6 incorrectly reverted change from commit ff10952a547dad934d9ed9afc5cf579ed1ccb53a (bad dwmw2) and the problem recently resurfaced. Because the third argument to __bug() is never used anyway, RMK suggested getting rid of it entirely instead of readding #include <linux/stddef.h> which this patch does.

2006-12-03[ARM] 3881/4: xscale: clean up cp0/cp1 handlingLennert Buytenhek5-76/+182
XScale cores either have a DSP coprocessor (which contains a single 40 bit accumulator register), or an iWMMXt coprocessor (which contains eight 64 bit registers.) Because of the small amount of state in the DSP coprocessor, access to the DSP coprocessor (CP0) is always enabled, and DSP context switching is done unconditionally on every task switch. Access to the iWMMXt coprocessor (CP0/CP1) is enabled only when an iWMMXt instruction is first issued, and iWMMXt context switching is done lazily. CONFIG_IWMMXT is supposed to mean 'the cpu we will be running on will have iWMMXt support', but boards are supposed to select this config symbol by hand, and at least one pxa27x board doesn't get this right, so on that board, proc-xscale.S will incorrectly assume that we have a DSP coprocessor, enable CP0 on boot, and we will then only save the first iWMMXt register (wR0) on context switches, which is Bad. This patch redefines CONFIG_IWMMXT as 'the cpu we will be running on might have iWMMXt support, and we will enable iWMMXt context switching if it does.' This means that with this patch, running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=n kernel on an iWMMXt-capable CPU will no longer potentially corrupt iWMMXt state over context switches, and running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=y kernel on a non-iWMMXt capable CPU will still do DSP context save/restore. These changes should make iWMMXt work on PXA3xx, and as a side effect, enable proper acc0 save/restore on non-iWMMXt capable xsc3 cores such as IOP13xx and IXP23xx (which will not have CONFIG_CPU_XSCALE defined), as well as setting and using HWCAP_IWMMXT properly.

2006-11-30[ARM] 3911/2: Simplify alloc_thread_info on ARMPaul Gortmaker1-61/+0
Remove ARM local cache of 4 struct thread_info. Can cause oops under certain circumstances. Russell indicated the original optimization was required on older kernels to avoid thread starvation on memory fragmentation, but may no longer be required. I've updated the patch to 19rc4 and ensured no <config.h> dain-bramage slipped in this time (sorry about that). Original description follows: I was given some test results which pointed to an Oops in alloc_thread_info (happened 2x), and after looking at the code, I see that ARM has its own local cache of 4 struct thread_info. There wasn't any clear (to me) synchronization between the alloc_thread_info and the free_thread_info. I looked over the other arch, and they all simply allocate them on an as needed basis, so I simplified the ARM to do the same, based on the other arch (e.g. PPC) and the folks doing the testing have indicated that this fixed the oops.

2006-10-01[PATCH] kill wall_jiffiesAtsushi Nemoto1-9/+1
With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies. So we can kill wall_jiffies completely. This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1". This condition is never met so I suppose it is just a bug. I just remove that condition only instead of kill the whole "if" block.

2006-09-30[ARM] 3809/3: get rid of 4 megabyte kernel image size limitLennert Buytenhek1-9/+9
We currently have a hardcoded 4 megabyte uncompressed kernel image size limit, which is easily exceeded by, for example, enabling some of the various kernel debugging options. When setting up the initial page tables (which is where this 4M limit is hardcoded), it's actually relatively easy to find out the true size of the uncompressed kernel image and create enough page table entries for things to fit, so this patch makes it so. In the decompressor, we also need to know the size of the uncompressed kernel image, to figure out whether there is any chance that uncompressing the kernel might overwrite the compressed kernel image stored elsewhere in memory. We don't have that info at this boot stage, though, so we approximate the size of the uncompressed kernel by taking the compressed kernel image size and allowing for a maximum 4x expansion.

2006-09-29[PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem)Atsushi Nemoto1-1/+1
Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390 timer interrupt handler with this change. Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update. Passing ticks get rid of this redundant calculation. Also there are another redundancy pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky. This cleanup make a barrier added by 5aee405c662ca644980c184774277fc6d0769a84 needless. So this patch removes it. As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies. (This patch does not really remove wall_jiffies. It would be another cleanup patch) Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "Eric W.

This patch adds Generic time-of-day support for the ARM architecture. The support is currently added using #ifdef's so that it can support sub-arches that do not (yet) have a clocksource added.

2006-09-28[ARM] nommu: confirms the CR_V bit in nommu modeHyok S. Choi1-0/+5
In nommu mode, the exception vector location depends on the platforms. Some of the implementations may have some special exception control forwarding method in their ROM/flash and for some of them has its own re-mapping mechanism by the h/w. This patch introduces a special configuration CONFIG_CPU_HIGH_VECTOR which turns on the CR_V bit in nommu mode. The CR_V bit is turned off by default. This feature depends on CP15 and does not supported by ARM740. Signed-off-by: Hyok S. Choi <hyok.choi@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
