metag/smp: Make boot_secondary() static

2014-01-06T09:59:22+00:00

boot_secondary() is not used outside arch/metag/kernel/smp.c, hence make it
static.

metag: topology: export 'cpu_core_map'

2013-12-19T11:36:13+00:00

We need to export 'cpu_core_map' since the topology_core_cpumask macro
refers to it and is used by certain kernel modules.

Found in allmodconfig build:
  ERROR: "cpu_core_map" [drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/libcfs.ko] undefined!

smp, metag: kill SMP single function call interrupt

2013-12-05T16:35:29+00:00

Commit 9a46ad6d6df3 "smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic
similar to smp_call_function_single()" has unified the way to handle
single and multiple cross-CPU function calls. Now only one interrupt is
needed for architecture specific code to support generic SMP function
call interfaces, so kill the redundant single function call interrupt.

metag: smp: don't set irq regs in do_IPI()

2013-11-29T14:52:13+00:00

Since commit f6b30d32d242 (metag: kick: add missing irq_enter/exit to
kick_handler()), the main kick_handler() function deals with setting and
restoring the irq registers pointer. Therefore do_IPI() which is called
indirectly from kick_handler() doesn't need to do that itself any
longer. Therefore remove that code and do_IPI()'s pt_regs argument.

metag: dma: remove dead code in dma_alloc_init()

2013-11-25T10:50:27+00:00

Meta has 2 levels of page table so the pmd folds into the pud which
folds into the pgd. Therefore the !pmd check in dma_alloc_init() is dead
code since it essentially checks whether:
  (init_mm->pgd + 0x770) == 0

Remove the check.

mm/arch: use __free_reserved_page() to simplify the code

2013-11-13T03:09:03+00:00

Use __free_reserved_page() to simplify the code in arch.

It used split_page() in consistent_alloc()/__dma_alloc_coherent()/dma_alloc_coherent(),
so page->_count == 1, and we can free it safely.

__free_reserved_page()
	ClearPageReserved()
	init_page_count()  // it won't change the value
	__free_page()

2013-11-12T07:52:17+00:00

Pull devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
"DeviceTree updates for 3.13. This is a bit larger pull request than
usual for this cycle with lots of clean-up.

- Cross arch clean-up and consolidation of early DT scanning code.
- Clean-up and removal of arch prom.h headers. Makes arch specific
prom.h optional on all but Sparc.
- Addition of interrupts-extended property for devices connected to
multiple interrupt controllers.
- Refactoring of DT interrupt parsing code in preparation for
deferred probe of interrupts.
- ARM cpu and cpu topology bindings documentation.
- Various DT vendor binding documentation updates"

2013-11-12T05:25:33+00:00

Pull metag architecture changes from James Hogan:
 - A change to remove the last dependence on bootloader exception
   handlers so that QEMU can more easily boot an SMP Linux/Meta kernel
   image directly.
 - A fix for a minor off by one error in a BUG_ON condition found by Dan
   Carpenter.

  metag: handle low level kicks directly

metag: handle low level kicks directly

2013-11-06T10:40:02+00:00

Kick interrupts trigger the LWK (low level kick) signal, usually handled
by the __TBIDoStdLWK() function which is the only handler inherited from
the bootloader. The LWK signal is converted either to a SWK (plain
software kick) or a SWS (software kick with an attached message).

Linux has kick_handler() to handle SWK and call registered kick handlers
(IPIs and inter-thread comms), but SWS is as far as I'm aware unused
with Linux.

Therefore remove that abstraction and have Linux handle LWK directly.
This will reduce kick latency slightly, and reduce our dependence on the
bootloader, which makes it easier to directly boot a kernel in QEMU
(particularly for SMP).
