  • c65f2abf5   ARM: remove ixp23xx and ixp2000 platforms ... Browse Code »

    ixp2xxx platforms have had no real changes since ~2006 and the maintainer
    has said on irc that they can be removed:

    13:05 < nico> do you still care about ixp2000?
    13:22 < lennert> not really, no
    13:58 < nico> do you think we could remove it from the kernel tree?
    14:01 < lennert> go for it, and remove ixp23xx too while you're at it

    Removing will help simplify ARM consolidation in general and PCI re-work
    specifically.

  • 64d2dc384   ARM: 6396/1: Add SWP/SWPB emulation for ARMv7 processors ... Browse Code »

    The SWP instruction was deprecated in the ARMv6 architecture,
    superseded by the LDREX/STREX family of instructions for
    load-linked/store-conditional operations. The ARMv7 multiprocessing
    extensions mandate that SWP/SWPB instructions are treated as undefined
    from reset, with the ability to enable them through the System Control
    Register SW bit.

    This patch adds the alternative solution to emulate the SWP and SWPB
    instructions using LDREX/STREX sequences, and log statistics to
    /proc/cpu/swp_emulation. To correctly deal with copy-on-write, it also
    modifies cpu_v7_set_pte_ext to change the mappings to priviliged RO when
    user RO.

    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!
