  • Since we're now using addruart to establish the debug mapping, we can
    remove the io_pg_offst and phys_io members of struct machine_desc.

    The various declarations were removed using the following script:

    grep -rl MACHINE_START arch/arm | xargs \
    sed -i '/MACHINE_START/,/MACHINE_END/ { /\.\(phys_io\|io_pg_offst\)/d }'

    [ Initial patch was from Jeremy Kerr, example script from Russell King ]

  • Rather than checking the MMU status in every instance of addruart, do it
    once in kernel/debug.S, and change the existing addruart macros to
    return both physical and virtual addresses. The main debug code can then
    select the appropriate address to use.

    This will also allow us to retreive the address of a uart for the MMU
    state that we're not current in.

    Updated with fixes for OMAP from Jason Wang
    and Tony Lindgren , and fix for versatile express from
    Lorenzo Pieralisi .

  • VMALLOC_END is supposed to be an absolute value, while PAGE_OFFSET may
    vary depending on the selected user:kernel memory split mode through
    CONFIG_VMSPLIT_*. In fact, the goal of moving PAGE_OFFSET down is to
    accommodate more directly addressed RAM by the kernel below the vmalloc
    area, and having VMALLOC_END move along PAGE_OFFSET is rather against
    the very reason why PAGE_OFFSET can be moved in the first place.

  • …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

  • Otherwise more complicated uart configuration won't be possible.
    We can use r1 for tmp register for both head.S and debug.S.

    NOTE: This patch depends on another patch to add the the tmp register
    into all debug-macro.S files. That can be done with:

    $ sed -i -e "s/addruart,rx|addruart, rx/addruart, rx, tmp/"
    arch/arm/*/include/*/debug-macro.S

  • OMAP wishes to pass state to the boot loader upon reboot in order to
    instruct it whether to wait for USB-based reflashing or not. There is
    already a facility to do this via the reboot() syscall, except we ignore
    the string passed to machine_restart().

    This patch fixes things to pass this string to arch_reset(). This means
    that we keep the reboot mode limited to telling the kernel _how_ to
    perform the reboot which should be independent of what we request the
    boot loader to do.

  • As Al did for Versatile in 2ad4f86b60b649fd7428265c08d73a3bd360c81b,
    add a typesafe __io implementation for platforms to use. Convert
    platforms to use this new simple typesafe implementation.

  • When ISA_DMA_API is unset, we're not implementing the ISA DMA API,
    so there's no point in publishing the prototypes via asm/dma.h, nor
    including the machine dependent parts of that API.

    This allows us to remove a lot of mach/dma.h files which don't contain
    any useful code. Unfortunately though, some platforms put their own
    private non-ISA definitions into mach/dma.h, so we leave these behind
    and fix the appropriate #include statments.

  • Let's provide an overridable default instead of having every machine
    class define __virt_to_bus and __bus_to_virt to the same thing. What
    most platforms are using is bus_addr == phys_addr so such is the default.

    One exception is ebsa110 which has no DMA what so ever, so the actual
    definition is not important except only for proper compilation. Also
    added a comment about the special footbridge bus translation.

    Let's also remove comments alluding to set_dma_addr which is not
    (and should not) be commonly used.

  • It seems that clk_use() and clk_unuse() are additional complexity
    which isn't required anymore. Remove them from the clock framework
    to avoid the additional confusion which they cause, and update all
    ARM machine types except for OMAP.

  • Fix more include file problems that surfaced since I submitted the previous
    fix-missing-includes.patch. This should now allow not to include sched.h
    from module.h, which is done by a followup patch.
