  • 7760989e5   [AVR32] Change system timer from count-compare to Timer/Counter 0 ... Browse Code »

    Due to limitation of the count-compare system timer (not able to
    count when CPU is in sleep), the system timer had to be changed to
    use a peripheral timer/counter.

    The old COUNT-COMPARE code is still present in time.c as weak
    functions. The new timer is added to the architecture directory.

    This patch sets up TC0 as system timer The new timer has been tested
    on AT32AP7000/ATSTK1000 at 100 Hz, 250 Hz, 300 Hz and 1000 Hz.

    For more details about the timer/counter see the datasheet for
    AT32AP700x available at

  • 3171a0305   [PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem) ... Browse Code »

    Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390
    timer interrupt handler with this change.

    Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
    callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update. Passing ticks
    get rid of this redundant calculation. Also there are another redundancy
    pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.

    This cleanup make a barrier added by
    5aee405c662ca644980c184774277fc6d0769a84 needless. So this patch removes
    it.

    As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
    wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies. (This patch does not really
    remove wall_jiffies. It would be another cleanup patch)

  • 5f97f7f94   [PATCH] avr32 architecture ... Browse Code »

    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.
