2012-01-08C6X: replace tick_nohz_stop/restart_sched_tick callsMark Salter
The following commits replaced the tick_nohz_{stop,restart}_sched_tick API with separate tick and rcu calls: 280f06774afedf849f0b34248ed6aff57d0f6908 2bbb6817c0ac1b5f2a68d720f364f98eeb1ac4fd 1268fbc746ea1cd279886a740dcbad4ba5232225 This patch replaces the C6X use of the old API with the newer interfaces.

2012-01-08C6X: add register_cpu callMark Salter
Commit ccbc60d3e19a1b6ae66ca0d89b3da02dde62088b requires CPU topology information even in !SMP cases. This requires C6X to add a call tp register_cpu() in order to avoid a panic at boot time. Signed-off-by: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com>
2012-01-08C6X: deal with memblock API changesMark Salter
Recent memblock related commits require the following C6X changes: * commit 24aa07882b672fff2da2f5c955759f0bd13d32d5 asm/memblock.h no longer required * commit 1440c4e2c918532f39131c3330fe2226e16be7b6 memblock_analyze() no longer needed to update total size * commit fe091c208a40299fba40e62292a610fb91e44b4e memblock_init() no longer needed Signed-off-by: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com>

2011-10-06C6X: memory management and DMA supportAurelien Jacquiot
Original port to early 2.6 kernel using TI COFF toolchain. Brought up to date by Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> The C6X architecture currently lacks an MMU so memory management is relatively simple. There is no bus snooping between L2 and main memory but coherent DMA memory is supported by making regions of main memory uncached. If such a region is desired, it can be specified on the commandline with a "memdma=" argument.

2011-10-06C6X: devicetree supportMark Salter
This is the basic devicetree support for C6X. Currently, four boards are supported. Each one uses a different SoC part. Two of the four supported SoCs are multicore. One with 3 cores and the other with 6 cores. There is no coherency between the core-level caches, so SMP is not an option. It is possible to run separate kernel instances on the various cores. There is currently no C6X bootloader support for device trees so we build in the DTB for now. There are some interesting twists to the hardware which are of note for device tree support. Each core has its own interrupt controller which is controlled by special purpose core registers. This core controller provides 12 general purpose prioritized interrupt sources. Each core is contained within a hardware "module" which provides L1 and L2 caches, power control, and another interrupt controller which cascades into the core interrupt controller. These core module functions are controlled by memory mapped registers. The addresses for these registers are the same for each core. That is, when coreN accesses a module-level MMIO register at a given address, it accesses the register for coreN even though other cores would use the same address to access the register in the module containing those cores. Other hardware modules (timers, enet, etc) which are memory mapped can be accessed by all cores. The timers need some further explanation for multicore SoCs. Even though all timer control registers are visible to all cores, interrupt routing or other considerations may make a given timer more suitable for use by a core than some other timer. Because of this and the desire to have the same image run on more than one core, the timer nodes have a "ti,core-mask" property which is used by the driver to scan for a suitable timer to use.

2011-10-06C6X: early boot codeAurelien Jacquiot
Original port to early 2.6 kernel using TI COFF toolchain. Brought up to date by Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> This patch provides the early boot code for C6X architecture. There is a 16 entry vector table which is used to direct reset and interrupt events. The vector table entries contain a small amount of code (maximum of 8 opcodes) which simply branches to the actual event handling code. The head.S code simply clears BSS, setups up a few control registers, and calls machine_init followed by start_kernel. The machine_init code in setup.c does the early flat tree parsing (memory, commandline, etc). At setup_arch time, the code does the usual memory setup and minimally scans the devicetree for any needed information.
