On revisions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r2p0, the Store Buffer does not
have any automatic draining mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur
if an external agent continuously polls a memory location waiting to
observe an update.
This workaround defines cpu_relax() as smp_mb(), preventing correctly
written polling loops from denying visibility of updates to memory.

On the r2p* and r3p* versions of the Cortex-A9, a speculative memory
access may cause a page table walk which starts prior to an ASID switch
but completes afterwards. This can populate the micro-TLB with a stale
entry which may be hit with the new ASID.
This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm switching code so
that no page table walks can cross the ASID switch.

On versions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r3p0, an interrupted ICIALLUIS
operation may prevent the completion of a following broadcasted
operation if the second operation is received by a CPU before the
ICIALLUIS has completed, potentially leading to corrupted entries in
the cache or TLB.
This workaround sets a bit in the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9,
causing CP15 maintenance operations to be uninterruptible.

The effect of cache sync operation is to drain the store buffer and
wait for all internal buffers to be empty. In normal conditions, store
buffer is able to merge the normal memory writes within its 32-byte
data buffers. Due to this erratum present in r3p0, the effect of cache
sync operation on the store buffer still remains when the operation
completes. This means that the store buffer is always asked to drain
and this prevents it from merging any further writes.
This can severely affect performance on the write traffic esp. on
Normal memory NC one.
The proposed workaround is to replace the normal offset of cache sync
operation(0x730) by another offset targeting an unmapped PL310
register 0x740.

The Footbridge platforms have some reasonable timers in the host bridge,
which we use for most footbridge-based platforms. However, NetWinder's
clock these using a spread-spectrum clock which makes them too unstable
for time keeping. So we have to rely on the PIT.
Convert both Footbridge timers and PIT timers to use the clocksource
and clockevent infrastructure. Tested on Netwinder.

Included are basic machine initialization files, register and
interrupt definitions, support for the on-chip interrupt controller,
high-precision OS timer, GPIO lines, necessary macros for early debug,
pulse-width-modulated outputs control, as well as platform device
configurations for the specific drivers implemented elsewhere.

This allows a ROM-able zImage to be written to MMC and
for SuperH Mobile ARM to boot directly from the MMCIF
hardware block.
This is achieved by the MaskROM loading the first portion
of the image into MERAM and then jumping to it. This portion
contains loader code which copies the entire image to SDRAM
and jumps to it. From there the zImage boot code proceeds
as normal, uncompressing the image into its final location
and then jumping to it.

Russell, please consider merging this for 2.6.38.
This patch depends on:
* "mmc, sh: Move MMCIF_PROGRESS_* into sh_mmcif.h"
which will be merged though Paul Mundt's rmobile sh-2.6.
The absence of this patch will break the build if
the (new) CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM_MMCIF option is set.
There are no subtle side-effects.
v2:
Addressed comments by Magnus Damm
* Fix copyright in vrl4.c
* Fix use of #define CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM_MMCIF in mmcif-sh7372.c
* Initialise LED GPIO lines in head-ap4evb.txt instead of mmcif-sh7372.c
as this is considered board-specific.
v3:
Addressed comments made in person by Magnus Damm
* Move mmcif_loader to be earlier in the image and
reduce the number of blocks of boot program loaded by the MaskRom
from 40 to 8 accordingly.
* Move LED GPIO initialisation into mmcif_progress_init
- This leaves the partner jet script unbloated
Other
* inline mmcif_update_progress so it is a static inline in a header file
v4:
* Use htole16() and htole32() in v4rl.c to ensure
that the output is little endian
v5:

* Simplify assembly code
* Jump to code rather than an address <- bug fix
* Use (void __iomem *) as appropriate

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.

Provide common sched_clock() infrastructure for platforms to use to
create a 64-bit ns based sched_clock() implementation from a counter
running at a non-variable clock rate.
This implementation is based upon maintaining an epoch for the counter
and an epoch for the nanosecond time. When we desire a sched_clock()
time, we calculate the number of counter ticks since the last epoch
update, convert this to nanoseconds and add to the epoch nanoseconds.
We regularly refresh these epochs within the counter wrap interval.
We perform a similar calculation as above, and store the new epochs.
We read and write the epochs in such a way that sched_clock() can easily
(and locklessly) detect when an update is in progress, and repeat the
loading of these constants when they're known not to be stable. The
one caveat is that sched_clock() is not called in the middle of an
update. We achieve that by disabling IRQs.
Finally, if the clock rate is known at compile time, the counter to ns
conversion factors can be specified, allowing sched_clock() to be tightly
optimized. We ensure that these factors are correct by providing an
initialization function which performs a run-time check.

* __fixup_smp_on_up has been modified with support for the
THUMB2_KERNEL case. For THUMB2_KERNEL only, fixups are split
into halfwords in case of misalignment, since we can't rely on
unaligned accesses working before turning the MMU on.
No attempt is made to optimise the aligned case, since the
number of fixups is typically small, and it seems best to keep
the code as simple as possible.
* Add a rotate in the fixup_smp code in order to support
CPU_BIG_ENDIAN, as suggested by Nicolas Pitre.
* Add an assembly-time sanity-check to ALT_UP() to ensure that
the content really is the right size (4 bytes).
(No check is done for ALT_SMP(). Possibly, this could be fixed
by splitting the two uses ot ALT_SMP() (ALT_SMP...SMP_UP versus
ALT_SMP...SMP_UP_B) into two macros. In the first case,
ALT_SMP needs to expand to >= 4 bytes, not == 4.)
* smp_mpidr.h (which implements ALT_SMP()/ALT_UP() manually due
to macro limitations) has not been modified: the affected
instruction (mov) has no 16-bit encoding, so the correct
instruction size is satisfied in this case.
* A "mode" parameter has been added to smp_dmb:
smp_dmb arm @ assumes 4-byte instructions (for ARM code, e.g. kuser)
smp_dmb @ uses W() to ensure 4-byte instructions for ALT_SMP()
This avoids assembly failures due to use of W() inside smp_dmb,
when assembling pure-ARM code in the vectors page.
There might be a better way to achieve this.
* Kconfig: make SMP_ON_UP depend on
(!THUMB2_KERNEL || !BIG_ENDIAN) i.e., THUMB2_KERNEL is now
supported, but only if !BIG_ENDIAN (The fixup code for Thumb-2
currently assumes little-endian order.)

Because the nwfpe support is unlikely to be used on new platforms
and requires CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT, which is not generally used with
ARMv7+, we shouldn't expect to build nwfpe support into a Thumb-2
kernel.
At present, nwfpe contains assembly code which isn't Thumb-2
compatible, and for now it doesn't appear useful to port this
code.
All ARMv7-A/R platforms necessarily have VFPv3 hardware floating-
point natively, making emulation unnecessary.

This makes sense, because Thumb-2 code can't execute on plain
ARMv6 processors.
This will avoid accidentally configuring a broken kernel where the
config otherwise would allow multiple architecture versions to
coexist in the same kernel.
Not adding !CPU_V5 etc., because the chance of anyone trying to
put v5 and v7 in the same kernel is low, and I'm not aware of
any mach which can do this. These could be added later if it
matters.
Note that the rules may need to be refined if support for the
ARM1156J(F)-S processor is later added to the kernel, since this
processor supports the rare ARMv6T2 extensions, which add support
for Thumb-2 and a few other ARMv7 features.
