2009-01-11MIPS: Alchemy: RTC counter clocksource / clockevent support.Manuel Lauss
Add support for the 32 kHz counter1 (RTC) as clocksource / clockevent device. As a nice side effect, this also enables use of the 'wait' instruction for runtime idle power savings. If the counters aren't enabled/working properly, fall back on the cp0 counter clock code. Signed-off-by: Manuel Lauss <mano@roarinelk.homelinux.net> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2009-01-11MIPS: Add Cavium OCTEON processor constants and CPU probe.David Daney
Add OCTEON constants to asm/cpu.h and asm/module.h. Add probe function for Cavium OCTEON CPUs and hook it up. Signed-off-by: Tomaso Paoletti <tpaoletti@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2008-10-30MIPS: Sort out CPU type to name translation.Ralf Baechle
As noticed by David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com>, the old long switch statement did not comply with the Linux C coding style. It was also yet another place of code to be changed when adding a new processor type leading to annoying bugs for example in /proc/cpuinfo. Fixed by moving the setting of the CPU type string into the core of the probing code and a few BUG_ON() test to ensure the CPU probing code indeed did its job and removing multiple now redundant tests.

2008-10-03[MIPS] SMTC: Fix SMTC dyntick support.Kevin D. Kissell
Rework of SMTC support to make it work with the new clock event system, allowing "tickless" operation, and to make it compatible with the use of the "wait_irqoff" idle loop. The new clocking scheme means that the previously optional IPI instant replay mechanism is now required, and has been made more robust. Signed-off-by: Kevin D.

2008-01-29[MIPS] Alchemy: Au1210/Au1250 CPU supportManuel Lauss
This patch adds IDs for new Au1200 variants: Au1210 and Au1250. They are essentially identical to the Au1200 except for the Au1210 which has a different SoC-ID in the PRId register [bits 31:24]. The Au1250 is a "Au1200 V0.2". Signed-off-by: Manuel Lauss <mano@roarinelk.homelinux.net> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2007-11-15[MIPS] Fix shadow register support.Ralf Baechle
Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore systems. The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels. SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code. So fix the allocator by ditching it. Move the remaining CPU probe bits into the generic CPU probe. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2007-10-11[MIPS] Sibyte: Replace SB1 cachecode with standard R4000 class cache code.Ralf Baechle
It may not be perfect yet but the SB1 code is badly borken and has horrible performance issues. Downside: This seriously breaks support for pass 1 parts of the BCM1250 where indexed cacheops don't work quite reliable but I seem to be the last one on the planet with a pass 1 part anyway.

2007-07-10[MIPS] Enable support for the userlocal hardware registerRalf Baechle

2007-07-06[MIPS] Fix scheduling latency issue on 24K, 34K and 74K coresRalf Baechle
The idle loop goes to sleep using the WAIT instruction if !need_resched(). This has is suffering from from a race condition that if if just after need_resched has returned 0 an interrupt might set TIF_NEED_RESCHED but we've just completed the test so go to sleep anyway. This would be trivial to fix by just disabling interrupts during that sequence as in: local_irq_disable(); if (!need_resched()) __asm__("wait"); local_irq_enable(); but the processor architecture leaves it undefined if a processor calling WAIT with interrupts disabled will ever restart its pipeline and indeed some processors have made use of the freedom provided by the architecture definition. This has been resolved and the Config7.WII bit indicates that the use of WAIT is safe on 24K, 24KE and 34K cores. It also is safe on 74K starting revision 2.1.0 so enable the use of WAIT with interrupts disabled for 74K based on a c0_prid of at least that. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2007-06-26[MIPS] 20K: Handle WAIT related bugs according to errata informationRalf Baechle
We used to avoid the WAIT entirely on the 20K but really only need to do this on early revs of the 20K. Without this a 20K was a bit of a power hog. Well, in the lower power power hog category ;-) Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2006-09-27[MIPS] Reduce race between cpu_wait() and need_resched() checkingAtsushi Nemoto
If a thread became runnable between need_resched() and the WAIT instruction, switching to the thread will delay until a next interrupt. Some CPUs can execute the WAIT instruction with interrupt disabled, so we can get rid of this race on them (at least UP case).
