Define this symbol if the architecture either uses 64-bit pointers or the
PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT is set. This covers 95% of the old arch magic. We only
need an additional select for Xen on ARM (why anyway?), and we now always

This initial port adds support of ARC HS Development Kit board with some
basic features such serial port, USB, SD/MMC and Ethernet.
Essentially we run Linux kernel on all 4 cores (i.e. utilize SMP) and
heavily use IO Coherency for speeding-up DMA-aware peripherals.
Note as opposed to other ARC boards we link Linux kernel to
0x9000_0000 intentionally because cores 1 and 3 configured with DCCM
situated at our more usual link base 0x8000_0000. We still can use
memory region starting at 0x8000_0000 as we reallocate DCCM in our
platform code.
Note that PAE remapping for DMA clients does not work due to an RTL bug,
so CREG_PAE register must be programmed to all zeroes, otherwise it will
cause problems with DMA to/from peripherals even if PAE40 is not used.

Currently the first page of system (hence RAM base) is assumed to be
@ CONFIG_LINUX_LINK_BASE, where kernel itself is linked.
However is case of HSDK platform, for reasons explained in that patch,
this is not true. kernel needs to be linked @ 0x9000_0000 while DDR
is still wired at 0x8000_0000. To properly account for this 256M of RAM,
we need to introduce a new option and base page frame accountiing off of

(here I mean axs103 with firmware v1.2) and 1 Gb of DDR mapped to
0x1_a000_0000-0x1_ffff_ffff we're really targeting memory above 4Gb
when PAE40 is enabled. This in its turn requires HIGHMEM to be enabled
otherwise user won't see any difference with enabling PAE in

Accumulator is present in configs with FPU and/or DSP MPY (mpy > 6)
Instead of doing this in pt_regs (and thus every kernel entry/exit),
this could have been done in context switch (and for user task only) as
currently kernel doesn't clobber these registers for its own accord.
However we will soon start using 64-bit multiply instructions for kernel
which can clobber these. Also gcc folks also plan to start using these
as GPRs, hence better to always save/restore them

Currently Kconfig knob ARC_NUMBER_OF_INTERRUPTS is used as indicator of
hard irq count. But it is flawed that it doesn't affect
- NR_IRQS : for number of virtual interrupts
- NR_CPU_IRQS : for number of hardware interrupts
Moreover the actual hardware irq count might still not be same as
ARC_NUMBER_OF_INTERRUPTS. So use the information availble in the
Build Configuration Registers and get rid of the Kconfig option.
We still need "some" build time info about irq count to set up
sufficient number of vector table entries. This is done with a
sufficiently large NR_CPU_IRQS which will eventually be used soley for
that purpose (subsequent patches will remove its usage elsewhere)
So to summarize what this patch does:
* NR_CPU_IRQS defines a maximum number of hardware interrupts.
* Remove ARC_NUMBER_OF_INTERRUPTS option and create interrupts
table for all possible hardware interrupts.
* Increase a maximum number of virtual IRQs to 512. ARCv2 can
support 240 interrupts in the core interrupts controllers
and 128 interrupts in IDU. Thus 512 virtual IRQs must be
enough for most configurations of boards.
This patch leads to NR_CPU_IRQS in 2 places, to reduce the overall
churn. The next patch will remove the 2nd definition anyways.

TIMER0 serves as clockevent for all ARC linux builds.
TIMER1 is used for clocksource in arc700 builds.

The original distinction was done as they were developed at different

But given that driver handles that at runtime, (i.e. not allowing

The IDU intc is technically part of MCIP (Multi-core IP) hence
historically was only available in a SMP hardware build (and thus only
in a SMP kernel build). Now that hardware restriction has been lifted,
so a UP kernel needs to support it.
This requires breaking mcip.c into parts which are strictly SMP
(inter-core interrupts) and IDU which in reality is just another
intc and thus has no bearing on SMP.
This change allows IDU in UP builds and with a suitable device tree, we
can have the cascaded intc system

ARC700 support for 2 interrupt priorities historically allowed even slow
perpherals such as emac and uart to setup high priority interrupts
which was wrong from the beginning as they could possibly delay the more
critical timer interrupt.
The hardware support for 2 level interrupts in ARCompact is less than
ideal anyways (judging from the "hacks" in low level entry code and thus
is not used in productions systems I know of.
So reduce the scope of this to timer only, thereby reducing a bunch of
complexity.

The binary GCD algorithm is based on the following facts:
1. If a and b are all evens, then gcd(a,b) = 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)
2. If a is even and b is odd, then gcd(a,b) = gcd(a/2, b)
3. If a and b are all odds, then gcd(a,b) = gcd((a-b)/2, b) = gcd((a+b)/2, b)
Even on x86 machines with reasonable division hardware, the binary
algorithm runs about 25% faster (80% the execution time) than the
division-based Euclidian algorithm.
On platforms like Alpha and ARMv6 where division is a function call to
emulation code, it's even more significant.
There are two variants of the code here, depending on whether a fast
__ffs (find least significant set bit) instruction is available. This
allows the unpredictable branches in the bit-at-a-time shifting loop to
be eliminated.
If fast __ffs is not available, the "even/odd" GCD variant is used.

On ARC, lower 2G of address space is translated and used for
- user vaddr space (region 0 to 5)
- unused kernel-user gutter (region 6)
- kernel vaddr space (region 7)
where each region simply represents 256MB of address space.
The kernel vaddr space of 256MB is used to implement vmalloc, modules
So far this was enough, but not on EZChip system with 4K CPUs (given
that per cpu mechanism uses vmalloc for allocating chunks)
So allow VMALLOC_SIZE to be configurable by expanding down into the unused
kernel-user gutter region which at default 256M was excessive anyways.
Also use _BITUL() to fix a build error since PGDIR_SIZE cannot use "1UL"

Initial HIGHMEM support on ARC was introduced for PAE40 where the low
memory (0x8000_0000 based) and high memory (0x1_0000_0000) were
physically contiguous. So CONFIG_FLATMEM sufficed (despite a peipheral
hole in the middle, which wasted a bit of struct page memory, but things
worked).
However w/o PAE, highmem was not possible and we could only reach
~1.75GB of DDR. Now there is a use case to access ~4GB of DDR w/o PAE40
The idea is to have low memory at canonical 0x8000_0000 and highmem
at 0 so enire 4GB address space is available for physical addressing
This needs additional platform/interconnect mapping to convert
the non contiguous physical addresses into linear bus adresses.
From Linux point of view, non contiguous divide means FLATMEM no
longer works and DISCONTIGMEM is needed to track the pfns in the 2
regions.
This scheme would also work for PAE40, only better in that we don't
waste struct page memory for the peripheral hole.
The DT description will be something like
memory {
...
reg = <0x80000000 0x200000000 /* 512MB: lowmem */
0x00000000 0x10000000>; /* 256MB: highmem */

This change removes mentioned dependency from arch/arc/Kconfig
updating instead those defconfigs that are usually used with this

And while at it all touched defconfigs were regenerated via
savedefconfig and some options were removed:

* EXT3_FS automatically selects EXT4_FS

MMUv4 supports 2 concurrent page sizes: Normal and Super [4K to 16M]
So far Linux supported a single super page size for a given Normal page,
depending on the software page walking address split.
e.g. we had 11:8:13 address split for 8K page, which meant super page
was 2 ^(8+13) = 2M (given that THP size has to be PMD_SHIFT)
Now we turn this around, by allowing multiple Super Pages in Kconfig
(currently 2M and 16M only) and forcing page walker address split to
PGDIR_SHIFT and PAGE_SHIFT
For configs without Super page, things are same as before and
PGDIR_SHIFT can be hacked to get non default address split
The motivation for this change is a customer who needs 16M super page
and a 8K Normal page combo.

advertise an implementation of save_stack_trace_tsk.
However, as of 9212ddb5ea ("stacktrace: provide save_stack_trace_tsk()

that LATENCYTOP already depends on STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and selects
STACKTRACE, we can remove HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT altogether.

Implement kmap* API for ARC.
This enables
- permanent kernel maps (pkmaps): :kmap() API
- fixmap : kmap_atomic()
We use a very simple/uniform approach for both (unlike some of the other
arches). So fixmap doesn't use the customary compile time address stuff.
The important semantic is sleep'ability (pkmap) vs. not (fixmap) which
the API guarantees.
Note that this patch only enables highmem for subsequent PAE40 support
as there is no real highmem for ARC in pure 32-bit paradigm as explained
below.
ARC has 2:2 address split of the 32-bit address space with lower half
being translated (virtual) while upper half unstranslated
(0x8000_0000 to 0xFFFF_FFFF). kernel itself is linked at base of
unstranslated space (i.e. 0x8000_0000 onwards), which is mapped to say
DDR 0x0 by external Bus Glue logic (outside the core). So kernel can
potentially access 1.75G worth of memory directly w/o need for highmem.
(the top 256M is taken by uncached peripheral space from 0xF000_0000 to
0xFFFF_FFFF)
In PAE40, hardware can address memory beyond 4G (0x1_0000_0000) while
the logical/virtual addresses remain 32-bits. Thus highmem is required
for kernel proper to be able to access these pages for it's own purposes
(user space is agnostic to this anyways).

MMUv4 in HS38x cores supports Super Pages which are basis for Linux THP
support.
Normal and Super pages can co-exist (ofcourse not overlap) in TLB with a
new bit "SZ" in TLB page desciptor to distinguish between them.
Super Page size is configurable in hardware (4K to 16M), but fixed once
RTL builds.
The exact THP size a Linx configuration will support is a function of:
- MMU page size (typical 8K, RTL fixed)
- software page walker address split between PGD:PTE:PFN (typical
11:8:13, but can be changed with 1 line)
So for above default, THP size supported is 8K * 256 = 2M
Default Page Walker is 2 levels, PGD:PTE:PFN, which in THP regime
reduces to 1 level (as PTE is folded into PGD and canonically referred
to as PMD).
Thus thp PMD accessors are implemented in terms of PTE (just like sparc)

This is to workaround the llock/scond livelock
HS38x4 could get into a LLOCK/SCOND livelock in case of multiple overlapping
coherency transactions in the SCU. The exclusive line state keeps rotating
among contenting cores leading to a never ending cycle. So break the cycle
by deferring the retry of failed exclusive access (SCOND). The actual delay
needed is function of number of contending cores as well as the unrelated
coherency traffic from other cores. To keep the code simple, start off with
small delay of 1 which would suffice most cases and in case of contention
double the delay. Eventually the delay is sufficient such that the coherency
pipeline is drained, thus a subsequent exclusive access would succeed.

Caveats about cache flush on ARCv2 based cores
- dcache is PIPT so paddr is sufficient for cache maintenance ops (no

- icache is still VIPT but only aliasing configs need PTAG setup
So basically this is departure from MMU-v3 which always need vaddr in
line ops registers (DC_IVDL, DC_FLDL, IC_IVIL) but paddr in DC_PTAG,
IC_PTAG respectively.

Back when ARC700 4.10 was released, the related kernel features were
tied to this config item so they could be disabled in one shot (i.e.

That having happened a while back, all new ARC customers weill get 4.11+

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and
ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port

HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.
Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.
The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT

least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and

This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up
patches. The arch-specific debug options still end up getting stuck
in the top-level "kernel hacking" menu. OPTIMIZE_INLINING, for

the fact that it is defined in arch/ in a separate Kconfig file keeps

Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options.
They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly
differing help text.
This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig
boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug
to present the actual menu option. This removes a bunch of
duplication and adds consistency across arches.

This is the meat of the series which prevents any dcache alias creation
by always keeping the U and K mapping of a page congruent.
If a mapping already exists, and other tries to access the page, prev
one is flushed to physical page (wback+inv)
Essentially flush_dcache_page()/copy_user_highpage() create K-mapping
of a page, but try to defer flushing, unless U-mapping exist.
When page is actually mapped to userspace, update_mmu_cache() flushes
the K-mapping (in certain cases this can be optimised out)
Additonally flush_cache_mm(), flush_cache_range(), flush_cache_page()
handle the puring of stale userspace mappings on exit/munmap...
flush_anon_page() handles the existing U-mapping for anon page before
kernel reads it via the GUP path.
Note that while not complete, this is enough to boot a simple
dynamically linked Busybox based rootfs
