* ARM: Allow SMP kernels to boot on UP systemsRussell King2010-10-041-21/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | UP systems do not implement all the instructions that SMP systems have, so in order to boot a SMP kernel on a UP system, we need to rewrite parts of the kernel. Do this using an 'alternatives' scheme, where the kernel code and data is modified prior to initialization to replace the SMP instructions, thereby rendering the problematical code ineffectual. We use the linker to generate a list of 32-bit word locations and their replacement values, and run through these replacements when we detect a UP system.

* ARM: 6112/1: Use the Inner Shareable I-cache and BTB ops on ARMv7 SMPCatalin Marinas2010-05-081-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | The standard I-cache Invalidate All (ICIALLU) and Branch Predication Invalidate All (BPIALL) operations are not automatically broadcast to the other CPUs in an ARMv7 MP system. The patch adds the Inner Shareable variants, ICIALLUIS and BPIALLIS, if ARMv7 and SMP.

* Check whether the TLB operations need broadcasting on SMP systemsCatalin Marinas2009-05-301-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | ARMv7 SMP hardware can handle the TLB maintenance operations broadcasting in hardware so that the software can avoid the costly IPIs. This patch adds the necessary checks (the MMFR3 CPUID register) to avoid the broadcasting if already supported by the hardware. (this patch is based on the work done by Tony Thompson @ ARM) Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
* arm: Use __INIT macro instead of .text.init.Tim Abbott2009-04-271-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | arm is placing some code in the .text.init section, but it does not reference that section in its linker scripts. This change moves this code from the .text.init section to the .init.text section, which is presumably where it belongs.

* [ARM] 5227/1: Add the ENDPROC declarations to the .S filesCatalin Marinas2008-09-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | This declaration specifies the "function" type and size for various assembly functions, mainly needed for generating the correct branch instructions in Thumb-2. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* [ARM] 4394/1: ARMv7: Add the TLB range operationsCatalin Marinas2007-05-301-0/+88
We are currently using the ARMv6 operations but need to duplicate some of the code because of the introduction of the new CPU barrier instructions in ARMv7. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
