From 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2005 15:20:36 -0700 Subject: Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

2002 + +The following documentation is relevant to 2.4.18-rmk6 and beyond. + +In order to boot ARM Linux, you require a boot loader, which is a small +program that runs before the main kernel. The boot loader is expected +to initialise various devices, and eventually call the Linux kernel, +passing information to the kernel. + +Essentially, the boot loader should provide (as a minimum) the +following: + +1. Setup and initialise the RAM. +2. Initialise one serial port. +3. Detect the machine type. +4. Setup the kernel tagged list. +5. Call the kernel image. + + +1. Setup and initialise RAM +--------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: MANDATORY +New boot loaders: MANDATORY + +The boot loader is expected to find and initialise all RAM that the +kernel will use for volatile data storage in the system. It performs +this in a machine dependent manner. (It may use internal algorithms +to automatically locate and size all RAM, or it may use knowledge of +the RAM in the machine, or any other method the boot loader designer +sees fit.) + + +2. Initialise one serial port +----------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: OPTIONAL, RECOMMENDED +New boot loaders: OPTIONAL, RECOMMENDED + +The boot loader should initialise and enable one serial port on the +target. This allows the kernel serial driver to automatically detect +which serial port it should use for the kernel console (generally +used for debugging purposes, or communication with the target.) + +As an alternative, the boot loader can pass the relevant 'console=' +option to the kernel via the tagged lists specifying the port, and +serial format options as described in + + Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt. + + +3. Detect the machine type +-------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: OPTIONAL +New boot loaders: MANDATORY + +The boot loader should detect the machine type its running on by some +method. Whether this is a hard coded value or some algorithm that +looks at the connected hardware is beyond the scope of this document. +The boot loader must ultimately be able to provide a MACH_TYPE_xxx +value to the kernel. (see linux/arch/arm/tools/mach-types). + + +4. Setup the kernel tagged list +------------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: OPTIONAL, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED +New boot loaders: MANDATORY + +The boot loader must create and initialise the kernel tagged list. +A valid tagged list starts with ATAG_CORE and ends with ATAG_NONE. +The ATAG_CORE tag may or may not be empty. An empty ATAG_CORE tag +has the size field set to '2' (0x00000002). The ATAG_NONE must set +the size field to zero. + +Any number of tags can be placed in the list. It is undefined +whether a repeated tag appends to the information carried by the +previous tag, or whether it replaces the information in its +entirety; some tags behave as the former, others the latter. + +The boot loader must pass at a minimum the size and location of +the system memory, and root filesystem location. Therefore, the +minimum tagged list should look: + + +-----------+ +base -> | ATAG_CORE | | + +-----------+ | + | ATAG_MEM | | increasing address + +-----------+ | + | ATAG_NONE | | + +-----------+ v + +The tagged list should be stored in system RAM. + +The tagged list must be placed in a region of memory where neither +the kernel decompressor nor initrd 'bootp' program will overwrite +it. The recommended placement is in the first 16KiB of RAM. + +5. Calling the kernel image +--------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: MANDATORY +New boot loaders: MANDATORY + +There are two options for calling the kernel zImage. If the zImage +is stored in flash, and is linked correctly to be run from flash, +then it is legal for the boot loader to call the zImage in flash +directly. + +The zImage may also be placed in system RAM (at any location) and +called there. Note that the kernel uses 16K of RAM below the image +to store page tables. The recommended placement is 32KiB into RAM. + +In either case, the following conditions must be met: + +- Quiesce all DMA capable devicess so that memory does not get + corrupted by bogus network packets or disk data. This will save + you many hours of debug. + +- CPU register settings + r0 = 0, + r1 = machine type number discovered in (3) above. + r2 = physical address of tagged list in system RAM. + +- CPU mode + All forms of interrupts must be disabled (IRQs and FIQs) + The CPU must be in SVC mode. (A special exception exists for Angel) + +- Caches, MMUs + The MMU must be off. + Instruction cache may be on or off. + Data cache must be off. + +- The boot loader is expected to call the kernel image by jumping + directly to the first instruction of the kernel image. + diff --git a/Documentation/arm/IXP2000 b/Documentation/arm/IXP2000 new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..e0148b6b2c40 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/arm/IXP2000 @@ -0,0 +1,69 @@ + +------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Release Notes for Linux on Intel's IXP2000 Network Processor + +Maintained by Deepak Saxena +------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +1.

Known Issues/Limitations + +3a. Limited inbound PCI window + +The IXP4xx family allows for up to 256MB of memory but the PCI interface +can only expose 64MB of that memory to the PCI bus. This means that if +you are running with > 64MB, all PCI buffers outside of the accessible +range will be bounced using the routines in arch/arm/common/dmabounce.c. + +3b. Limited outbound PCI window + +IXP4xx provides two methods of accessing PCI memory space: + +1) A direct mapped window from 0x48000000 to 0x4bffffff (64MB). + To access PCI via this space, we simply ioremap() the BAR + into the kernel and we can use the standard read[bwl]/write[bwl] + macros. This is the preffered method due to speed but it + limits the system to just 64MB of PCI memory. This can be + problamatic if using video cards and other memory-heavy devices. + +2) If > 64MB of memory space is required, the IXP4xx can be + configured to use indirect registers to access PCI This allows + for up to 128MB (0x48000000 to 0x4fffffff) of memory on the bus. + The disadvantadge of this is that every PCI access requires + three local register accesses plus a spinlock, but in some + cases the performance hit is acceptable. In addition, you cannot + mmap() PCI devices in this case due to the indirect nature + of the PCI window. + +By default, the direct method is used for performance reasons. If +you need more PCI memory, enable the IXP4XX_INDIRECT_PCI config option. + +3c. GPIO as Interrupts + +Currently the code only handles level-sensitive GPIO interrupts + +4.

Each MMU TLB variant is now handled completely separately - +we have TLB v3, TLB v4 (without write buffer), TLB v4 (with write buffer), +and finally TLB v4 (with write buffer, with I TLB invalidate entry). +There is more assembly code inside each of these functions, mainly to +allow more flexible TLB handling for the future. + +Secondly, the IRQ subsystem. + +The 2.5 kernels will be having major changes to the way IRQs are handled. +Unfortunately, this means that machine types that touch the irq_desc[] +array (basically all machine types) will break, and this means every +machine type that we currently have. + +Lets take an example. On the Assabet with Neponset, we have: + + GPIO25 IRR:2 + SA1100 ------------> Neponset -----------> SA1111 + IIR:1 + -----------> USAR + IIR:0 + -----------> SMC9196 + +The way stuff currently works, all SA1111 interrupts are mutually +exclusive of each other - if you're processing one interrupt from the +SA1111 and another comes in, you have to wait for that interrupt to +finish processing before you can service the new interrupt. Eg, an +IDE PIO-based interrupt on the SA1111 excludes all other SA1111 and +SMC9196 interrupts until it has finished transferring its multi-sector +data, which can be a long time. Note also that since we loop in the +SA1111 IRQ handler, SA1111 IRQs can hold off SMC9196 IRQs indefinitely. + + +The new approach brings several new ideas... + +We introduce the concept of a "parent" and a "child". For example, +to the Neponset handler, the "parent" is GPIO25, and the "children"d +are SA1111, SMC9196 and USAR. + +We also bring the idea of an IRQ "chip" (mainly to reduce the size of +the irqdesc array). This doesn't have to be a real "IC"; indeed the +SA11x0 IRQs are handled by two separate "chip" structures, one for +GPIO0-10, and another for all the rest. It is just a container for +the various operations (maybe this'll change to a better name). +This structure has the following operations: + +struct irqchip { + /* + * Acknowledge the IRQ. + * If this is a level-based IRQ, then it is expected to mask the IRQ + * as well. + */ + void (*ack)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Mask the IRQ in hardware. + */ + void (*mask)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Unmask the IRQ in hardware. + */ + void (*unmask)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Re-run the IRQ + */ + void (*rerun)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Set the type of the IRQ. + */ + int (*type)(unsigned int irq, unsigned int, type); +}; + +ack - required. May be the same function as mask for IRQs + handled by do_level_IRQ. +mask - required. +unmask - required. +rerun - optional. Not required if you're using do_level_IRQ for all + IRQs that use this 'irqchip'. Generally expected to re-trigger + the hardware IRQ if possible. If not, may call the handler + directly. +type - optional. If you don't support changing the type of an IRQ, + it should be null so people can detect if they are unable to + set the IRQ type. + +For each IRQ, we keep the following information: + + - "disable" depth (number of disable_irq()s without enable_irq()s) + - flags indicating what we can do with this IRQ (valid, probe, + noautounmask) as before + - status of the IRQ (probing, enable, etc) + - chip + - per-IRQ handler + - irqaction structure list + +The handler can be one of the 3 standard handlers - "level", "edge" and +"simple", or your own specific handler if you need to do something special. + +The "level" handler is what we currently have - its pretty simple. +"edge" knows about the brokenness of such IRQ implementations - that you +need to leave the hardware IRQ enabled while processing it, and queueing +further IRQ events should the IRQ happen again while processing. The +"simple" handler is very basic, and does not perform any hardware +manipulation, nor state tracking. This is useful for things like the +SMC9196 and USAR above. + +So, what's changed? + +1. Machine implementations must not write to the irqdesc array. + +2. New functions to manipulate the irqdesc array. The first 4 are expected + to be useful only to machine specific code. The last is recommended to + only be used by machine specific code, but may be used in drivers if + absolutely necessary. + + set_irq_chip(irq,chip) + + Set the mask/unmask methods for handling this IRQ + + set_irq_handler(irq,handler) + + Set the handler for this IRQ (level, edge, simple) + + set_irq_chained_handler(irq,handler) + + Set a "chained" handler for this IRQ - automatically + enables this IRQ (eg, Neponset and SA1111 handlers). + + set_irq_flags(irq,flags) + + Set the valid/probe/noautoenable flags. + + set_irq_type(irq,type) + + Set active the IRQ edge(s)/level. This replaces the + SA1111 INTPOL manipulation, and the set_GPIO_IRQ_edge() + function. Type should be one of the following: + + #define IRQT_NOEDGE (0) + #define IRQT_RISING (__IRQT_RISEDGE) + #define IRQT_FALLING (__IRQT_FALEDGE) + #define IRQT_BOTHEDGE (__IRQT_RISEDGE|__IRQT_FALEDGE) + #define IRQT_LOW (__IRQT_LOWLVL) + #define IRQT_HIGH (__IRQT_HIGHLVL) + +3. set_GPIO_IRQ_edge() is obsolete, and should be replaced by set_irq_type. + +4. Direct access to SA1111 INTPOL is depreciated. Use set_irq_type instead. + +5. A handler is expected to perform any necessary acknowledgement of the + parent IRQ via the correct chip specific function. For instance, if + the SA1111 is directly connected to a SA1110 GPIO, then you should + acknowledge the SA1110 IRQ each time you re-read the SA1111 IRQ status. + +6. For any child which doesn't have its own IRQ enable/disable controls + (eg, SMC9196), the handler must mask or acknowledge the parent IRQ + while the child handler is called, and the child handler should be the + "simple" handler (not "edge" nor "level").

For more information, see + http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/patches/info.html Always include some + explanation as to what the patch does and why it is needed. + + Bug reports should be sent to linux-arm-kernel@lists.arm.linux.org.uk, + or submitted through the web form at + http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/forms/solution.shtml + + When sending bug reports, please ensure that they contain all relevant + information, eg. the kernel messages that were printed before/during + the problem, what you were doing, etc. + + +Include files +------------- + + Several new include directories have been created under include/asm-arm, + which are there to reduce the clutter in the top-level directory. These + directories, and their purpose is listed below: + + arch-* machine/platform specific header files + hardware driver-internal ARM specific data structures/definitions + mach descriptions of generic ARM to specific machine interfaces + proc-* processor dependent header files (currently only two + categories) + + +Machine/Platform support +------------------------ + + The ARM tree contains support for a lot of different machine types. To + continue supporting these differences, it has become necessary to split + machine-specific parts by directory. For this, the machine category is + used to select which directories and files get included (we will use + $(MACHINE) to refer to the category) + + To this end, we now have arch/arm/mach-$(MACHINE) directories which are + designed to house the non-driver files for a particular machine (eg, PCI, + memory management, architecture definitions etc). For all future + machines, there should be a corresponding include/asm-arm/arch-$(MACHINE) + directory. + + +Modules +------- + + Although modularisation is supported (and required for the FP emulator), + each module on an ARM2/ARM250/ARM3 machine when is loaded will take + memory up to the next 32k boundary due to the size of the pages. + Therefore, modularisation on these machines really worth it? + + However, ARM6 and up machines allow modules to take multiples of 4k, and + as such Acorn RiscPCs and other architectures using these processors can + make good use of modularisation. + + +ADFS Image files +---------------- + + You can access image files on your ADFS partitions by mounting the ADFS + partition, and then using the loopback device driver. You must have + losetup installed. + + Please note that the PCEmulator DOS partitions have a partition table at + the start, and as such, you will have to give '-o offset' to losetup. + + +Request to developers +--------------------- + + When writing device drivers which include a separate assembler file, please + include it in with the C file, and not the arch/arm/lib directory. This + allows the driver to be compiled as a loadable module without requiring + half the code to be compiled into the kernel image. + + In general, try to avoid using assembler unless it is really necessary. It + makes drivers far less easy to port to other hardware. + + +ST506 hard drives +----------------- + + The ST506 hard drive controllers seem to be working fine (if a little + slowly). At the moment they will only work off the controllers on an + A4x0's motherboard, but for it to work off a Podule just requires + someone with a podule to add the addresses for the IRQ mask and the + HDC base to the source. + + As of 31/3/96 it works with two drives (you should get the ADFS + *configure harddrive set to 2).

(Possibly ONLY + in that case...hmm). + + +1772 Floppy +----------- + This also seems to work OK, but hasn't been stressed much lately. It + hasn't got any code for disc change detection in there at the moment which + could be a bit of a problem! Suggestions on the correct way to do this + are welcome. + + +CONFIG_MACH_ and CONFIG_ARCH_ +----------------------------- + A change was made in 2003 to the macro names for new machines. + Historically, CONFIG_ARCH_ was used for the bonafide architecture, + e.g. SA1100, as well as implementations of the architecture, + e.g. Assabet. It was decided to change the implementation macros + to read CONFIG_MACH_ for clarity. Moreover, a retroactive fixup has + not been made because it would complicate patching. + + Previous registrations may be found online. + + + +Kernel entry (head.S) +-------------------------- + The initial entry into the kernel is via head.S, which uses machine + independent code. The machine is selected by the value of 'r1' on + entry, which must be kept unique. + + Due to the large number of machines which the ARM port of Linux provides + for, we have a method to manage this which ensures that we don't end up + duplicating large amounts of code. + + We group machine (or platform) support code into machine classes.

These + classes are given directories - arch/arm/mach- and + include/asm-arm/arch- - which contain the source files to + support the machine class. This directories also contain any machine + specific supporting code. + + For example, the SA1100 class is based upon the SA1100 and SA1110 SoC + devices, and contains the code to support the way the on-board and off- + board devices are used, or the device is setup, and provides that + machine specific "personality." + + This fine-grained machine specific selection is controlled by the machine + type ID, which acts both as a run-time and a compile-time code selection + method. + + You can register a new machine via the web site at: + + + +--- +Russell King (15/03/2004) diff --git a/Documentation/arm/SA1100/ADSBitsy b/Documentation/arm/SA1100/ADSBitsy new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..ab47c3833908 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/arm/SA1100/ADSBitsy @@ -0,0 +1,43 @@ +ADS Bitsy Single Board Computer +(It is different from Bitsy(iPAQ) of Compaq) + +For more details, contact Applied Data Systems or see +http://www.applieddata.net/products.html + +The Linux support for this product has been provided by +Woojung Huh + +Use 'make adsbitsy_config' before any 'make config'. +This will set up defaults for ADS Bitsy support. + +The kernel zImage is linked to be loaded and executed at 0xc0400000. + +Linux can be used with the ADS BootLoader that ships with the +newer rev boards.

While the kernel does use some of the +features of these devices, it is far from the purpose for which they +were designed. + +When this README was written, the implementation of the VICs was in +flux. It is possible that some details, especially with priorities, +will change. + +The VIC support code is inspired by routines written by Sharp. + + +Priority Control +---------------- + +The significant reason for using the VIC's vectoring is to control +interrupt priorities. There are two tables in +arch/arm/mach-lh7a40x/irq-lh7a404.c that look something like this. + + static unsigned char irq_pri_vic1[] = { IRQ_GPIO3INTR, }; + static unsigned char irq_pri_vic2[] = { + IRQ_T3UI, IRQ_GPIO7INTR, + IRQ_UART1INTR, IRQ_UART2INTR, IRQ_UART3INTR, }; + +The initialization code reads these tables and inserts a vector +address and enable for each indicated IRQ. Vectored interrupts have +higher priority than non-vectored interrupts. So, on VIC1, +IRQ_GPIO3INTR will be served before any other non-FIQ interrupt. Due +to the way that the vectoring works, IRQ_T3UI is the next highest +priority followed by the other vectored interrupts on VIC2. After +that, the non-vectored interrupts are scanned in VIC1 then in VIC2. + + +ISR +--- + +The interrupt service routine macro get_irqnr() in +arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S scans the VICs for the next active +interrupt. The vectoring makes this code somewhat larger than it was +before using vectoring (refer to the LH7A400 implementation). In the +case where an interrupt is vectored, the implementation will tend to +be faster than the non-vectored version. However, the worst-case path +is longer. + +It is worth noting that at present, there is no need to read +VIC2_VECTADDR because the register appears to be shared between the +controllers. The code is written such that if this changes, it ought +to still work properly. + + +Vector Addresses +---------------- + +The proper use of the vectoring hardware would jump to the ISR +specified by the vectoring address. Linux isn't structured to take +advantage of this feature, though it might be possible to change +things to support it. + +In this implementation, the vectoring address is used to speed the +search for the active IRQ. The address is coded such that the lowest +6 bits store the IRQ number for vectored interrupts. These numbers +correspond to the bits in the interrupt status registers. IRQ zero is +the lowest interrupt bit in VIC1. IRQ 32 is the lowest interrupt bit +in VIC2. Because zero is a valid IRQ number and because we cannot +detect whether or not there is a valid vectoring address if that +address is zero, the eigth bit (0x100) is set for vectored interrupts. +The address for IRQ 0x18 (VIC2) is 0x118.
