2010-02-27MIPS: Add TLBR and ROTR to uasm.David Daney
The soon to follow Read Inhibit/eXecute Inhibit patch needs TLBR and ROTR support in uasm. We also add a UASM_i_ROTR macro.

2010-02-27MIPS: Use 64-bit stores to c0_entrylo on 64-bit kernels.David Daney
64-bit CPUs have 64-bit c0_entrylo{0,1} registers. We should use the 64-bit dmtc0 instruction to set them. This becomes important if we want to set the RI and XI bits present in some processors.

2010-02-27MIPS: Make the debugging of compressed kernel configurableWu Zhangjin
This patch adds a new DEBUG_ZBOOT option to allow the users to enable it to debug the compressed kernel support for a new board and this optoin should be disabled to reduce the kernel image size and speed up the kernel booting procedure when the compressed kernel support is stable.

2010-02-27MIPS: Allow the auxv's elf_platform entry to be set.David Daney
The userspace runtime linker uses the elf_platform to find the libraries optimized for the current CPU archecture variant. First we need to allow it to be set to something other than NULL. Follow-on patches will set some values for specific CPUs. GLIBC already does the right thing. The kernel just needs to supply good data.

2010-02-27MIPS: Loongson: Cleanup the halt and poweroff actionWu Zhangjin
In the old source code, I have let halt and poweroff do the same action, but in reality, they have different meanings. As the manpage of shutdown shows: -r Reboot after shutdown. -H Halt action is to halt or drop into boot monitor on systems that support it. -P Halt action is to turn off the power. and in the real world, some machines(e.g. NAS) did not provide a power button and the shutdown works as reset, so, we need to provide a mechanism to let the users turn off the power safely without breaking the system, such a mechanism is "halt", which only put the system into a dead loop or a power-save mode and print some information to the screen to tell the users to turn off the power safely. $ shutdown -hH now /* loongson_halt, not turn off the power */ $ shutdown -hP now /* loongson_poweroff, work as poweroff */ Signed-off-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Tested-by: Liu Shiwei <liushiwei@gmail.com> Cc: Liu Shiwei <liushiwei@gmail.com> Cc: linux-mips <linux-mips@linux-mips.org> Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/883/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
