  • Add the termios2 structure ready for enabling on most platforms. One or
    two like Sparc are plain weird so have been left alone. Most can use the
    same structure as ktermios for termios2 (ie the newer ioctl uses the
    structure matching the current kernel structure)

  • In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need
    to separate the kernel and user termios structures. Glibc is fine but the
    other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to
    extend this without breaking the ABI/API

    To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios
    structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for
    now. (That limitation will go away in later patches). Some platforms (eg
    alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not.

    This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible
    splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect
    them)

  • This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000
    CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board.

    AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for
    cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power
    consumption and high code density. The AVR32 architecture is not binary
    compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures.

    The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
    AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from

    http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf

    The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture. It
    features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full
    Memory Management Unit. It also comes with a large set of integrated
    peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from
    Atmel.

    Full data sheet is available from

    http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf

    while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by
    the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from

    http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf

    Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at

    http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918

    including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development
    tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for
    booting from SD card.

    Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at
    http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links
    to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling
    environment for avr32-linux.

    This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the
    toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
