2009-12-17MIPS: Loongson 2F: Cleanup the #if clausesWu Zhangjin
This patch adds two new kernel options: CPU_SUPPORTS_CPUFREQ and CPU_SUPPORTS_ADDRWINCFG to describe the new features of Loongons 2F and replaces the several ugly #if clauses by them. These two options will be utilized by the future loongson revisions and related drivers such as the coming Loongson 2F CPUFreq driver.

2009-12-17MIPS: Lemote 2F: Add defconfig fileWu Zhangjin
Add default config file for Lemote Loongson 2F family machines. The resulting kernel image can be shared between Fuloong 2F, Yeeloong 2F and other Lemote Loongson 2F family machines. If you are using an old PMON, and not using a 2f box, please add a new command line argument in the boot.cfg. For example, add this argument for 8.9inches notebook: machtype=lemote-yeeloong-2f-8.9inches or machtype=8.9 More information from arch/mips/loongson/common/machtype.c.

2009-12-17MIPS: Loongson: Add basic Loongson 2F supportWu Zhangjin
Loongson 2F has built-in DDR2 and PCI-X controller. The PCI-X controller has a programming interface similiar to the the FPGA northbridge used on Loongson 2E. The main differences between Loongson 2E and Loongson 2F include: 1. Loongson 2F has an extra address window configuration module, which is used to map CPU address space to DDR or PCI address space, or map the PCI-DMA address space to DDR or LIO address space. 2. Loongson 2F supports 8 levels of software configurable CPu frequency which can be configured in the LOONGSON_CHIPCFG0 register. The coming cpufreq and standby support are based on this feature. Loongson.h abstracts the modules and corresponding methods are abstracted. Add other Loongson-2F-specific source code including gcc 4.4 support, PCI memory space, PCI IO space, DMA address.

2009-12-17MIPS: Loongson: Cleanup the serial port supportWu Zhangjin
To share the same kernel image amon different machines we have added the machtype command line support. In the old serial port implementation the UART base address is hardcoded as a macro in machine.h which breaks with machtype, so change that to discover the address dynamically. Also move the initialization of the UART base address to uart_base.c to avoid remapping twice for early_printk.c and serial.c.

2009-12-17MIPS: Collect FPU emulator statistics per-CPU.David Daney
On SMP systems, the collection of statistics can cause cache line bouncing in the lines associated with the counters. Also there are races incrementing the counters on multiple CPUs. To fix both problems, we collect the statistics in per-CPU variables, and add them up in the debugfs read operation. As a test I ran the LTP float_bessel test on a 12 CPU Octeon system. Without CONFIG_DEBUG_FS : 2602 seconds. With CONFIG_DEBUG_FS: 2640 seconds. With non-cpu-local atomic statistics: 14569 seconds.

The built-in Loongson 2E/2F northbridge in is bonito64-compatible but not identical with it. To avoid influencing the original bonito64 support and make the loongson support more maintainable, it's better to separate the Bonito64 code from the Loongson code.

2009-12-17MIPS: Put PGD in C0_CONTEXT for 64-bit R2 processors.David Daney
Processors that support the mips64r2 ISA can in four instructions convert a shifted PGD pointer stored in the upper bits of c0_context into a usable pointer. By doing this we save a memory load and associated potential cache miss in the TLB exception handlers. Since the upper bits of c0_context were holding the CPU number, we move this to the upper bits of c0_xcontext which doesn't have enough bits to hold the PGD pointer, but has plenty for the CPU number.

The Octeon SOC has two types of Ethernet ports, each type with its own driver. However, the PHYs for all the ports are controlled by a common MDIO bus. Because the mdio driver is not associated with a particular driver, but is instead a system level resource, we create s stand-alone driver for it. As for the driver, we put the register definitions in arch/mips/include/asm/octeon where most of the other Octeon register definitions live. This is a platform driver with the platform device for "mdio-octeon" being registered in the platform startup code. Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Acked-by: David S.

2009-12-10vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semanticsChristoph Hellwig
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems, since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to vfs_fsync_range and when not. This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers. This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe. We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path to make sure we always get these sane options. Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.
