2014-01-02Input: i8042 - select ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_SERIO on alphaMark Salter

2013-11-16alpha: Switch to GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTSRichard Henderson
This allows us to get rid of some hacky code for SMP. Get rid of some cycle counter hackery that's now handled by generic code via clocksource + clock_event_device objects. Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>
2013-11-16alpha: Reorganize rtc handlingRichard Henderson
Discontinue use of GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE; rely on the RTC subsystem. The marvel platform requires that the rtc only be touched from the boot cpu. This had been partially implemented with hooks for get/set_rtc_time, but read/update_persistent_clock were not handled. Move the hooks from the machine_vec to a special rtc_class_ops struct. We had read_persistent_clock managing the epoch against which the rtc hw is based, but this didn't apply to get_rtc_time or set_rtc_time. This resulted in incorrect values when hwclock(8) gets involved. Allow the epoch to be set from the kernel command-line, overriding the autodetection, which is doomed to fail in 2020. Further, by implementing the rtc ioctl function, we can expose this epoch to userland. Elide the alarm functions that RTC_DRV_CMOS implements. This was highly questionable on Alpha, since the interrupt is used by the system timer. Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>
2013-11-16alpha: Primitive support for CPU power down.Richard Henderson
Use WTINT to wait for the next interrupt. Squash the WTINT call if the PALcode doesn't support it (e.g. MILO). No attempt is yet made to skip clock ticks during normal scheduling in order to stay in power down mode longer. Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>

2013-01-18tty: Added a CONFIG_TTY option to allow removal of TTYJoe Millenbach
The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway. bloat-o-meter output is below. The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than "depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies. bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by removing TTY.

2012-09-28Make most arch asm/module.h files use asm-generic/module.hDavid Howells
Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela, ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS. Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible. To this end, I've defined three new config bools: (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic mod_arch_specific struct. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are two arches that do this. With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file. Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

2012-08-19alpha: Use new generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()Michael Cree
Similar to x86/sparc/powerpc implementations except: 1) we implement an extremely efficient has_zero()/find_zero() sequence with both prep_zero_mask() and create_zero_mask() no-operations. 2) Our output from prep_zero_mask() differs in that only the lowest eight bits are used to represent the zero bytes nevertheless it can be safely ORed with other similar masks from prep_zero_mask() and forms input to create_zero_mask(), the two fundamental properties prep_zero_mask() must satisfy. Tests on EV67 and EV68 CPUs revealed that the generic code is essentially as fast (to within 0.5% of CPU cycles) of the old Alpha specific code for large quadword-aligned strings, despite the 30% extra CPU instructions executed. In contrast, the generic code for unaligned strings is substantially slower (by more than a factor of 3) than the old Alpha specific code.

2011-11-28alpha: switch to GENERIC_PCI_IOMAPMichael S. Tsirkin
alpha copied pci_iomap from generic code to avoid pulling the rest of iomap.c in. Since that's in a separate file now, we can reuse the common implementation. The only difference is handling of nocache flag, that turns out to be done correctly by the generic code since arch/alpha/include/asm/io.h defines ioremap_nocache same as ioremap.

2011-11-24lib: move GENERIC_IOMAP to lib/KconfigMichael S. Tsirkin
define GENERIC_IOMAP in a central location instead of all architectures. This will be helpful for the follow-up patch which makes it select other configs. Code is also a bit shorter this way. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

Since GPIOLIB is optional on alpha, GENERIC_GPIO must not be selected by default. If GPIOLIB is enabled, it will select GENERIC_GPIO.

2011-08-03Add Kconfig option ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHGHuang Ying
cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation. This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different implementation according to it. On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).
