2011-02-17ARM: 6648/1: map ATAGs when not in first 1MB of RAMRob Herring
If ATAGs or DTB pointer is not within first 1MB of RAM, then the boot params will not be mapped early enough, so map the 1MB region that r2 points to. Only map the first 1MB when r2 is 0. Some assembly improvements from Nicolas Pitre.

2011-02-17ARM: P2V: extend to 16-bit translation offsetsRussell King
MSM's memory is aligned to 2MB, which is more than we can do with our existing method as we're limited to the upper 8 bits. Extend this by using two instructions to 16 bits, automatically selected when MSM is enabled.

2011-02-17ARM: P2V: introduce phys_to_virt/virt_to_phys runtime patchingRussell King
This idea came from Nicolas, Eric Miao produced an initial version, which was then rewritten into this. Patch the physical to virtual translations at runtime. As we modify the code, this makes it incompatible with XIP kernels, but allows us to achieve this with minimal loss of performance. As many translations are of the form: physical = virtual + (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET) virtual = physical - (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET) we generate an 'add' instruction for __virt_to_phys(), and a 'sub' instruction for __phys_to_virt(). We calculate at run time (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET) by comparing the address prior to MMU initialization with where it should be once the MMU has been initialized, and place this constant into the above add/sub instructions. Once we have (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET), we can calculate the real PHYS_OFFSET as PAGE_OFFSET is a build-time constant, and save this for the C-mode PHYS_OFFSET variable definition to use. At present, we are unable to support Realview with Sparsemem enabled as this uses a complex mapping function, and MSM as this requires a constant which will not fit in our math instruction. Add a module version magic string for this feature to prevent incompatible modules being loaded.

2011-02-17ARM: P2V: eliminate head.S use of PHYS_OFFSET for !XIP_KERNELRussell King
head.S makes use of PHYS_OFFSET. When it becomes a variable, the assembler won't understand this. Compute PHYS_OFFSET by the following method. This code is linked at its virtual address, but run at before the MMU is enabled, so at his physical address. 1: .long . .long PAGE_OFFSET adr r0, 1b @ r0 = physical ',' ldmia r0, {r1, r2} @ r1 = virtual '.', r2 = PAGE_OFFSET sub r1, r0, r1 @ r1 = physical-virtual add r2, r2, r1 @ r2 = PAGE_OFFSET + physical-virtual @ := PHYS_OFFSET. Switch XIP users of PHYS_OFFSET to use PLAT_PHYS_OFFSET - we can't use this method for XIP kernels as the code doesn't execute in RAM.

2011-02-15ARM: Defer lookup of machine_type to setup.cRussell King
Since the debug macros no longer depend on the machine type information, the machine type lookup can be deferred to setup_arch() in setup.c which simplifies the code somewhat. We also move the __error_a functionality into setup.c for displaying a message when a bad machine ID is passed to the kernel via the LL debug code. We also log this into the kernel ring buffer which makes it possible to retrieve the message via a debugger. Original idea from Grant Likely.

2011-01-11ARM: sched_clock: make minsec argument to clocks_calc_mult_shift() zeroRussell King
The purpose of the minsec argument is to prevent 64-bit math overflow when the number of cycles is multiplied up. However, the multipler is 32-bit, and in the sched_clock() case, the cycle counter is up to 32-bit as well. So the math can never overflow. With a value of 60, and clock rates greater than 71MHz, the calculated multiplier is unnecessarily reduced in value, which reduces accuracy by maybe 70ppt. It's almost not worth bothering with as the oscillator driving the counter won't be any more than 1ppm - unless you're using a rubidium lamp or caesium fountain frequency standard. So, set the minsec argument to zero. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2010-12-24ARM: 6532/1: Allow machine to specify it's own IRQ handlers at run-timeeric miao
Normally different ARM platform has different way to decode the IRQ hardware status and demultiplex to the corresponding IRQ handler. This is highly optimized by macro irq_handler in entry-armv.S, and each machine defines their own macro to decode the IRQ number. However, this prevents multiple machine classes to be built into a single kernel. By allowing each machine to specify thier own handler, and making function pointer 'handle_arch_irq' to point to it at run time, this can be solved. And introduce CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER to allow both solutions to work. Comparing with the highly optimized macro of irq_handler, the new function must be written with care not to lose too much performance. And the IPI stuff on SMP is expected to move to the provided arch IRQ handler as well. The assembly code to invoke handle_arch_irq is optimized by Russell King.
