MIPS: Don't select CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG

2026-03-12T11:23:26+00:00

MIPS selects CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG, but none of the clocksources actually sets the MUST_VERIFY flag. So compiling the watchdog in is a pointless exercise. Remove the selects.

MIPS: Implement ARCH_HAS_CC_CAN_LINK

2026-02-09T11:53:10+00:00

The generic CC_CAN_LINK detection does not handle different byte orders or ABIs. This may lead to userprogs which are not actually runnable on the target kernel. Use architecture-specific logic supporting byte orders instead. Modern 64-bit toolchains default to a n32 libc, which are not supported by all kernel configurations, as MIPS32_N32 is optional. On 64-bit, test for a n32 ABI libc first and fall back to o64 and o32 if necessary.

mips: mm: enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE

2026-02-06T23:47:18+00:00

On a 64-bit system, madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) may cause a large number of empty PTE page table pages (such as 100GB+). To resolve this problem, first enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to prepare for enabling the PT_RECLAIM feature, which resolves this problem.

MIPS: Fix HOTPLUG_PARALLEL dependency

2025-12-01T09:04:21+00:00

With MIPS, it is possible to have SMP enabled without HOTPLUG_CPU selected. However, in kernel/cpu.c, some code that uses HOTPLUG_PARALLEL also requires HOTPLUG_CPU to be selected. Therefore, we should fix the HOTPLUG_PARALLEL dependency to depend on HOTPLUG_CPU, not just SMP.
