2014-07-18ARM: make it easier to check the CPU part number correctlyRussell King
Ensure that platform maintainers check the CPU part number in the right manner: the CPU part number is meaningless without also checking the CPU implement(e|o)r (choose your preferred spelling!) Provide an interface which returns both the implementer and part number together, and update the definitions to include the implementer. Mark the old function as being deprecated... indeed, using the old function with the definitions will now always evaluate as false, so people must update their un-merged code to the new function. While this could be avoided by adding new definitions, we'd also have to create new names for them which would be awkward.

2014-04-22clocksource: arm_global_timer: Only check for unusable timer on A9Matthew Leach
The check for a usable global timer in the probe code does not enquire which CPU we are currently running on. This can cause the driver to incorrectly assume we have an unusable global timer if we are running on a CPU other than A9. Before checking the CPU revision, ensure we are running on an A9 CPU.

2013-12-11clocksource: arm_global_timer: Switch to sched_clock_register()Stephen Boyd
The 32 bit sched_clock interface now supports 64 bits. Upgrade to the 64 bit function to allow us to remove the 32 bit registration interface. While we're here increase the number of bits that sched_clock can handle to 64 to make full use of the counter.

2013-07-14clocksource+irqchip: delete __cpuinit usage from all related filesPaul Gortmaker
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the drivers/clocksource and drivers/irqchip uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files.

2013-07-03clocksource: arm_global_timer: Add ARM global timer supportStuart Menefy
This is a simple driver for the global timer module found in the Cortex A9-MP cores from revision r1p0 onwards. This should be able to perform the functions of the system timer and the local timer in an SMP system. The global timer has the following features: The global timer is a 64-bit incrementing counter with an auto-incrementing feature. It continues incrementing after sending interrupts. The global timer is memory mapped in the private memory region. The global timer is accessible to all Cortex-A9 processors in the cluster. Each Cortex-A9 processor has a private 64-bit comparator that is used to assert a private interrupt when the global timer has reached the comparator value. All the Cortex-A9 processors in a design use the banked ID, ID27, for this interrupt. ID27 is sent to the Interrupt Controller as a Private Peripheral Interrupt. The global timer is clocked by PERIPHCLK.
