2007-02-15[ARM] 4109/2: Add support for the RealView/EB MPCore revC platformCatalin Marinas
The kernel originally supported revB only. This patch enables revC by default and adds a config option for building the kernel for the revB platform. Since the SCU base address was hard-coded in the proc-v6.S file (and only valid for RealView/EB revB), this patch also adds a more generic support for defining the SCU information.

2007-02-08[ARM] Always mark ARMv6 PTWs outer cacheableRussell King
Other platforms other than SMP may have an outer cache. For these, we also need to mark the page table walks outer cacheable. Since marking the walks always outer cacheable apparantly has no side effects, we might as well always mark them so. However, we continue to only mark PTWs shared if we have SMP enabled.

2006-12-13[ARM] Unuse another Linux PTE bitRussell King
L_PTE_ASID is not really required to be stored in every PTE, since we can identify it via the address passed to set_pte_at(). So, create set_pte_ext() which takes the address of the PTE to set, the Linux PTE value, and the additional CPU PTE bits which aren't encoded in the Linux PTE value.

2006-12-08[ARM] Handle HWCAP_VFP in VFP support codeRussell King
Don't set HWCAP_VFP in the processor support file; not only does it depend on the processor features, but it also depends on the support code being present. Therefore, only set it if the support code detects that we have a VFP coprocessor attached. Also, move the VFP handling of the coprocessor access register into the VFP support code.

2006-11-30[ARM] Include asm/elf.h instead of asm/procinfo.hRussell King
These files want to provide/access ELF hwcap information, so should be including asm/elf.h rather than asm/procinfo.h Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2006-06-29[ARM] Set bit 4 on section mappings correctly depending on CPURussell King
On some CPUs, bit 4 of section mappings means "update the cache when written to". On others, this bit is required to be one, and others it's required to be zero. Finally, on ARMv6 and above, setting it turns on "no execute" and prevents speculative prefetches. With all these combinations, no one value fits all CPUs, so we have to pick a value depending on the CPU type, and the area we're mapping. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-06-29[ARM] nommu: provide a way for correct control register value selectionRussell King
Most MMU-based CPUs have a restriction on the setting of the data cache enable and mmu enable bits in the control register, whereby if the data cache is enabled, the MMU must also be enabled. Enabling the data cache without the MMU is an invalid combination. However, there are CPUs where the data cache can be enabled without the MMU. In order to allow these CPUs to take advantage of that, provide a method whereby each proc-*.S file defines the control regsiter value for use with nommu (with the MMU disabled.) Later on, when we add support for enabling the MMU on these devices, we can adjust the "crval" macro to also enable the data cache for nommu. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-06-28[ARM] nommu: Initial uCLinux support for MMU-based CPUsHyok S. Choi
In noMMU mode, various of functions which are defined in mm/proc-*.S is not valid or needed to be avoided. i.g. switch_mm is not needed, just returns and this makes the I & D caches are valid which shows great improvement of performance including task switching and IPC.

2006-06-25[ARM] Remove partial non-v6 binutils compatibilityRussell King
proc-v6 contains some compatibility to be able to use the V6 "cps" instruction. However, the kernel makes use of this instruction elsewhere extensively, so there's no point keeping this compatibility anymore. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-03-27[ARM] proc-v6: mark page table walks outer-cacheable, shared. Enable NX.Russell King

2006-03-21[ARM] nommu: Move hardware page table definitions to pgtable-hwdef.hRussell King
Move the hardware PMD and PTE page table definitions from pgtable.h into pgtable-hwdef.h, and include pgtable-hwdef.h as necessary. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-11-07[ARM SMP] Add support for shared memory attributeRussell King
We need to set the shared memory attribute in the page tables on SMP systems to allow the cache coherency to operate. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-08-10[ARM] Control v6 'global' bit via Linux PTE entriesRussell King
Unfortunately, we can't use the "user" bit in the page tables to control whether a page table entry is "global" or "asid" specific, since the vector page is mapped as "user" accessible but is not process specific. Therefore, give direct control of the ARMv6 "nG" (not global) bit to the mm layers. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-07-06[PATCH] ARM: 2789/1: Enable access to both CP10 and CP11 on ARMv6Catalin Marinas
Patch from Catalin Marinas The VFP instructions trigger undefined exceptions because the access to CP11 is disabled (only CP10 is currently enabled by the kernel). The patch fixes this problem.

2005-06-24[PATCH] ARM: 2698/1: Enable kernel r/w access to user pages on ARMv6Catalin Marinas
Patch from Catalin Marinas cpu_v6_set_pte() sets the kernel access rights to r/o for user pages (L_PTE_USER) when neither L_PTE_WRITE nor L_PTE_DIRTY are set. This causes a kernel data abort when writing the TLS value in the 0xffff0000 page. This patch enables the kernel r/w access.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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. Let it rip!
