nios2: reserve boot memory for device tree

2017-04-12T10:42:07+00:00

commit 921d701e6f31e1ffaca3560416af1aa04edb4c4f upstream. Make sure to reserve the boot memory for the flattened device tree. Otherwise it might get overwritten, e.g. when initial_boot_params is copied, leading to a corrupted FDT and a boot hang/crash: bootconsole [early0] enabled Early console on uart16650 initialized at 0xf8001600 OF: fdt: Error -11 processing FDT Kernel panic - not syncing: setup_cpuinfo: No CPU found in devicetree! ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: setup_cpuinfo: No CPU found in devicetree!

clocksource: Use a plain u64 instead of cycle_t

2016-12-25T10:04:12+00:00

There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is unambiguous. Conversion was done with the following coccinelle script: @rem@ @@ -typedef u64 cycle_t; @fix@ typedef cycle_t; @@ -cycle_t +u64 Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: John Stultz

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

nios2: fix timer initcall return value

2016-11-11T16:45:08+00:00

When called more than twice, the nios2_time_init() function return an uninitialized value, as detected by gcc -Wmaybe-uninitialized arch/nios2/kernel/time.c: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function This makes it return '0' here, matching the comment above the function.

nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus

2016-10-08T01:46:30+00:00

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN". We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new .cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section. This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

Use of_property_read_bool instead of open-coding it as fpcu_has. Convert the members of struct cpuinfo from u32 to bool accordingly as they are only used as boolean anyhow. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Acked-by: Ley Foon Tan

clocksources: Switch back to the clksrc table

2016-06-28T08:19:35+00:00

All the clocksource drivers's init function are now converted to return an error code. CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE is no longer used as well as the clksrc-of table. Let's convert back the names: - CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE_RET => CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE - clksrc-of-ret => clksrc-of Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano For exynos_mct and samsung_pwm_timer: Acked-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski For arch/arc: Acked-by: Vineet Gupta For mediatek driver: Acked-by: Matthias Brugger For the Rockchip-part Acked-by: Heiko Stuebner For STi : Acked-by: Patrice Chotard For the mps2-timer.c and versatile.c changes: Acked-by: Liviu Dudau For the OXNAS part : Acked-by: Neil Armstrong For LPC32xx driver: Acked-by: Sylvain Lemieux For Broadcom Kona timer change: Acked-by: Ray Jui For Sun4i and Sun5i: Acked-by: Chen-Yu Tsai For Meson6: Acked-by: Carlo Caione For Keystone: Acked-by: Santosh Shilimkar For NPS: Acked-by: Noam Camus For bcm2835: Acked-by: Eric Anholt

clocksource/drivers/nios2: Convert init function to return error

2016-06-28T08:19:34+00:00

The init functions do not return any error. They behave as the following: - panic, thus leading to a kernel crash while another timer may work and make the system boot up correctly or - print an error and let the caller unaware if the state of the system Change that by converting the init functions to return an error conforming to the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_RET prototype. Proper error handling (rollback, errno value) will be changed later case by case, thus this change just return back an error or success in the init function. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano
