Support was added to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes employees. As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V, and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline support any more. While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit
RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the
kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were
already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes
employees.

As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V,
and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels
provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline
support any more.

While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets
worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best
to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns
out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer
to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

clocksource/drivers: Add MStar MSC313e timer support 2021-12-20T12:28:28+00:00 Romain Perier romain.perier@gmail.com 2021-12-17T19:57:22+00:00 5fc1f93f69989e72be7a84ded6ee867d6415f690 The MSC313e-compatible SoCs have 3 timer hardware blocks. All of these are free running 32-bit increasing counters and can generate interrupts. Based onto a maximum value register, each timer can either count from 0 to max, one time then stop (which generates interrupts) or can count from 0 to max and then roll. This commit adds basic support for these timers, the first timer block being used as clocksource/sched_clock and delay, while the others will be used as clockevents.
