<title>MIPS: SMP: Don't increment irq_count multiple times for call function IPIs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4ace6139bf23ab4f152ba4207fc10b76cc01d2a5</id>
<content type='text'>
The majority of SMP platforms handle their IPIs through do_IRQ()
which calls irq_{enter/exit}(). When a call function IPI is received,
smp_call_function_interrupt() is called which also calls
irq_{enter,exit}(), meaning irq_count is raised twice.

When tick broadcasting is used (which is implemented via a call
function IPI), this incorrectly causes all CPU idle time on the core
receiving broadcast ticks to be accounted as time spent servicing
IRQs, as account_process_tick() will account as such if irq_count is
greater than 1. This results in 100% CPU usage being reported on a
core which receives its ticks via broadcast.

This patch removes the SMP smp_call_function_interrupt() wrapper which
calls irq_{enter,exit}(). Platforms which handle their IPIs through
do_IRQ() now call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() directly to
avoid incrementing irq_count a second time. Platforms which don't
(loongson, sgi-ip27, sibyte) call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt()
wrapped in irq_{enter,exit}().

<title>MIPS: c-r4k: Fix cache flushing for MT cores</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cccf34e9411c41b0cbfb41980fe55fc8e7c98fd2</id>
<content type='text'>
MT_SMP is not the only SMP option for MT cores. The MT_SMP option
allows more than one VPE per core to appear as a secondary CPU in the
system. Because of how CM works, it propagates the address-based
cache ops to the secondary cores but not the index-based ones.
Because of that, the code does not use IPIs to flush the L1 caches on
secondary cores because the CM would have done that already. However,
the CM functionality is independent of the type of SMP kernel so even in
non-MT kernels, IPIs are not necessary. As a result of which, we change
the conditional to depend on the CM presence. Moreover, since VPEs on
the same core share the same L1 caches, there is no need to send an
IPI on all of them so we calculate a suitable cpumask with only one
VPE per core.

thread_siblings in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/topology.

<content type='text'>
Add a mask of CPUs which are currently known to be operating coherently.
This is setup initially to be all present CPUs, but in a subsequent
patch CPUs in a MIPS Coherent Processing System will be cleared in this
mask as they enter non-coherent idle states. This will be used in order
to determine when a CPU within a CPS system may need to be powered back
up, but may also be used in future to optimise away wakeups for cache
operations or TLB invalidations.

<title>MIPS: Loongson 3: Add CPU hotplug support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c4a987db1b3cd89207cece4b8121c09cbfbc978a</id>
<content type='text'>
Tips of Loongson's CPU hotplug:
1, To fully shutdown a core in Loongson 3, the target core should go to
   CKSEG1 and flush all L1 cache entries at first. Then, another core
   (usually Core 0) can safely disable the clock of the target core. So
   play_dead() call loongson3_play_dead() via CKSEG1 (both uncached and
   unmmaped).
2, The default clocksource of Loongson is MIPS. Since clock source is a
   global device, timekeeping need the CP0' Count registers of each core
   be synchronous. Thus, when a core is up, we use a SMP_ASK_C0COUNT IPI
   to ask Core-0's Count.
