ARM: 8708/1: NOMMU: Rework MPU to be mostly done in C

2017-10-23T15:58:59+00:00

Currently, there are several issues with how MPU is setup: 1. We won't boot if MPU is missing 2. We won't boot if use XIP 3. Further extension of MPU setup requires asm skills The 1st point can be relaxed, so we can continue with boot CPU even if MPU is missed and fail boot for secondaries only. To address the 2nd point we could create region covering CONFIG_XIP_PHYS_ADDR - _end and that might work for the first stage of MPU enable, but due to MPU's alignment requirement we could cover too much, IOW we need more flexibility in how we're partitioning memory regions... and it'd be hardly possible to archive because of the 3rd point. This patch is trying to address 1st and 3rd issues and paves the path for 2nd and further improvements. The most visible change introduced with this patch is that we start using mpu_rgn_info array (as it was supposed?), so change in MPU setup done by boot CPU is recorded there and feed to secondaries. It allows us to keep minimal region setup for boot CPU and do the rest in C. Since we start programming MPU regions in C evaluation of MPU constrains (number of regions supported and minimal region order) can be done once, which in turn open possibility to free-up "probe" region early.

ARM: 8423/1: add const qualifier to smp_operations member in structures

2015-09-22T07:13:57+00:00

The core framework does not modify smp_operations structures. To clarify it, this commit adds 'const' qualifier to the 'ops' member of struct of_cpu_method and the 'smp' member of struct machine_desc. This change allows each SoC code to add 'const' qualifier to its smp_operation structure. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8424/1: add const qualifier to the argument of smp_set_ops()

2015-09-22T07:13:57+00:00

This function just copies '*ops' to 'smp_ops', so the given structure '*ops' is not modified at all. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Stephen Boyd Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8421/1: smp: Collapse arch_cpu_idle_dead() into cpu_die()

2015-08-25T17:19:19+00:00

The only caller of cpu_die() on ARM is arch_cpu_idle_dead(), so let's simplify the code by renaming cpu_die() to arch_cpu_idle_dead(). While were here, drop the __ref annotation because __cpuinit is gone nowadays. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8392/3: smp: Only expose /sys/.../cpuX/online if hotpluggable

2015-07-31T17:58:30+00:00

Writes to /sys/.../cpuX/online fail if we determine the platform doesn't support hotplug for that CPU. Furthermore, if the cpu_die op isn't specified the system hangs when we try to offline a CPU and it comes right back online unexpectedly. Let's figure this stuff out before we make the sysfs nodes so that the online file doesn't even exist if it isn't (at least sometimes) possible to hotplug the CPU. Add a new 'cpu_can_disable' op and repoint all 'cpu_disable' implementations at it because all implementers use the op to indicate if a CPU can be hotplugged or not in a static fashion. With PSCI we may need to add a 'cpu_disable' op so that the secure OS can be migrated off the CPU we're trying to hotplug. In this case, the 'cpu_can_disable' op will indicate that all CPUs are hotpluggable by returning true, but the 'cpu_disable' op will make a PSCI migration call and occasionally fail, denying the hotplug of a CPU. This shouldn't be any worse than x86 where we may indicate that all CPUs are hotpluggable but occasionally we can't offline a CPU due to check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() failing to find a CPU to move vectors to.

ARM: redo TTBR setup code for LPAE

2015-06-01T22:48:19+00:00

Re-engineer the LPAE TTBR setup code. Rather than passing some shifted address in order to fit in a CPU register, pass either a full physical address (in the case of r4, r5 for TTBR0) or a PFN (for TTBR1). This removes the ARCH_PGD_SHIFT hack, and the last dangerous user of cpu_set_ttbr() in the secondary CPU startup code path (which was there to re-set TTBR1 to the appropriate high physical address space on Keystone2.)

ARM: 8131/1: arm/smp: Absorb boot_secondary()

2014-08-27T14:44:13+00:00

After becoming a mandatory function, boot_secondary() is no longer used outside arch/arm/kernel/smp.c. Hence remove its public prototype, and, as suggested by Arnd, let it be absorbed by its single caller. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Russell King
