MIPS: ath79: don't hardcode the unavailability of the DSP ASE

2012-08-17T08:57:29+00:00

The ath79 platform code allows to run a single kernel image on various SoCs which are based on the 24Kc and 74Kc cores. The current code explicitely disables the DSP ASE, but that is available in the 74Kc core. Remove the override in order to let the kernel to detect the availability of the DSP ASE at runtime.

MIPS: Synchronize MIPS count one CPU at a time

2012-08-17T08:57:28+00:00

The current implementation of synchronise_count_{master,slave} blocks slave CPUs in early boot until all of them come up. This no longer works because blocking a CPU with interrupts off after notifying the CPU to be online causes problems with the current kernel. Specifically, after the workqueue changes (commit a08489c569dc1 "Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo") the CPU_ONLINE notification callback workqueue_cpu_up_callback() will hang on wait_for_completion(&idle_rebind.done), if the slave CPUs are blocked for synchronize_count_slave(). The changes are to update synchronize_count_{master,slave}() to handle one CPU at a time and to call synchronise_count_master() in __cpu_up() so that the CPU_ONLINE notification goes out only after the COP0 COUNT register is synchronized. [ralf@linux-mips.org: This matter only to those few platforms which are using the cp0 counter as their clocksource which are XLP, XLR and MIPS' CMP solution.] Signed-off-by: Jayachandran C Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/4216/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

MIPS: BCM63xx: Fix SPI message control register handling for BCM6338/6348.

2012-08-17T08:57:28+00:00

BCM6338 and BCM6348 have a message control register width of 8 bits, instead of 16-bits like what the SPI driver assumes right now. Also the SPI message type shift value of 14 is actually 6 for these SoCs. This resulted in transmit FIFO corruption because we were writing 16-bits to an 8-bits wide register, thus spanning on the first byte of the transmit FIFO, which had already been filed in bcm63xx_spi_fill_txrx_fifo(). Fix this by passing the message control register width and message type shift through platform data back to the SPI driver so that it can use it properly.

MIPS: Fix race condition in module relocation code.

2012-08-17T08:57:28+00:00

The relocation code was essentially taken from the 2.4 modutils which perform relocation in userspace. In 2.6 relocation of multiple modules may be performed in parallel by the in-kernel loader so the global variable mips_hi16_list won't fly anymore. Fix race by moving it into mod_arch_specific.

MIPS: Octeon: Fix broken interrupt controller code.

2012-08-17T08:57:26+00:00

Since 3.6.0-rc1, We are getting many messages like: WARNING: at kernel/irq/irqdomain.c:444 irq_domain_associate_many+0x23c/0x260() Modules linked in: Call Trace: [] dump_stack+0x8/0x34 [] warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xa8 [] irq_domain_associate_many+0x23c/0x260 [] irq_create_mapping+0xd0/0x220 [] irq_create_of_mapping+0x7c/0x158 [] irq_of_parse_and_map+0x28/0x40 . . . Both the CIU and GPIO interrupt domains were somewhat screwed up. For the CIU domain, we need to call irq_domain_associate() for each of the preassigned irq numbers. For the GPIO domain, we were applying the register bit offset in octeon_irq_gpio_xlat, but it should be done in octeon_irq_gpio_map instead. Also: Reserve all 8 'core' irqs for the 'core' irq_chip so that they don't get used by the other domains. Remove unused OCTEON_IRQ_* symbols.

MIPS: Loongson 2: Sort out clock managment.

For unexplainable reasons the Loongson 2 clock API was implemented in a module so fixing this involved shifting large amounts of code around. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

Merge Andrew's first set of patches: "Non-MM patches: - lots of misc bits - tree-wide have_clk() cleanups - quite a lot of printk tweaks.

ipc: use Kconfig options for __ARCH_WANT_[COMPAT_]IPC_PARSE_VERSION

2012-07-31T00:25:21+00:00

Rather than #define the options manually in the architecture code, add Kconfig options for them and select them there instead. This also allows us to select the compat IPC version parsing automatically for platforms using the old compat IPC interface.
