dma-mapping: clearly mark DMA ops as an architecture feature

2024-09-04T04:08:51+00:00

DMA ops are a helper for architectures and not for drivers to override the DMA implementation. Unfortunately driver authors keep ignoring this. Make the fact more clear by renaming the symbol to ARCH_HAS_DMA_OPS and having the two drivers overriding their dma_ops depend on that. These drivers should probably be marked broken, but we can give them a bit of a grace period for that.

alpha: drop pre-EV56 support

2024-05-06T10:05:00+00:00

All EV4 machines are already gone, and the remaining EV5 based machines all support the slightly more modern EV56 generation as well. Debian only supports EV56 and later. Drop both of these and build kernels optimized for EV56 and higher when the "generic" options is selected, tuning for an out-of-order EV6 pipeline, same as Debian userspace. Since this was the only supported architecture without 8-bit and 16-bit stores, common kernel code no longer has to worry about aligning struct members, and existing workarounds from the block and tty layers can be removed. The alpha memory management code no longer needs an abstraction for the differences between EV4 and EV5+. Link: https://lists.debian.org/debian-alpha/2023/05/msg00009.html Acked-by: Paul E.

alpha: cabriolet: remove EV5 CPU support

2024-05-03T20:10:03+00:00

The sys_cabriolet.c file includes support for multiple evaluation boards. pc164 and lx164 are for ev56 CPUs, while the eb164 is now the last supported machine that only supports ev5 but not ev56. Acked-by: Paul E. McKenney Acked-by: Matt Turner Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

alpha: remove LCA and APECS based machines

2024-05-03T20:09:59+00:00

APECS is the DECchip 21071x chipset for the EV4 and EV45 generation, while LCA is the integrated I/O support on the corresponding low-cost alpha machines of that generation. All of these CPUs lack the BWX extension for byte and word access, so drop the chipset support and all associated machines. Acked-by: Paul E.

alpha: sable: remove early machine support

2024-05-03T20:09:55+00:00

The sable family (Alphaserver 2000 and 2100) comes in variants for EV4, EV45, EV5 and EV56. Drop support for the earlier ones that lack support for the BWX extension but keep the later 'gamma' variant around since that works with EV56 CPUs. Acked-by: Paul E.

alpha: remove DECpc AXP150 (Jensen) support

2024-05-03T20:09:50+00:00

This is one of the hackiest Alpha machines, and the only one without PCI support. Removing this allows cleaning up code in eise and tty drivers in addition to the architecture code. Acked-by: Paul E. McKenney Acked-by: Matt Turner Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

arch: define CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_*KB on all architectures

2024-03-06T18:29:09+00:00

Most architectures only support a single hardcoded page size. In order to ensure that each one of these sets the corresponding Kconfig symbols, change over the PAGE_SHIFT definition to the common one and allow only the hardware page size to be selected.
