[MIPS] Alchemy: Au1210/Au1250 CPU support

2008-01-29T10:14:59+00:00

This patch adds IDs for new Au1200 variants: Au1210 and Au1250.
They are essentially identical to the Au1200 except for the Au1210
which has a different SoC-ID in the PRId register [bits 31:24].
The Au1250 is a "Au1200 V0.2".

[MIPS] Fix shadow register support.

2007-11-15T23:21:49+00:00

Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore
systems.  The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but
VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels.

SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that
users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code.  So fix
the allocator by ditching it.  Move the remaining CPU probe bits into
the generic CPU probe.

[MIPS] Make facility to convert CPU types to strings generally available.

2007-10-11T22:46:17+00:00

So far /proc/cpuinfo has been the only user but human readable processor
name are more useful than that for proc.

[MIPS] Sibyte: Replace SB1 cachecode with standard R4000 class cache code.

2007-10-11T22:46:05+00:00

It may not be perfect yet but the SB1 code is badly borken and has
horrible performance issues.

Downside: This seriously breaks support for pass 1 parts of the BCM1250
where indexed cacheops don't work quite reliable but I seem to be the
last one on the planet with a pass 1 part anyway.

[MIPS] Add support for BCM47XX CPUs.

2007-10-11T22:46:02+00:00

Note that the BCM4710 does not support the wait instruction, this
is not a mistake in the code.

It originally comes from the OpenWrt patches.

[MIPS] 20Kc: Disable use of WAIT instruction.

2007-09-14T18:08:43+00:00

Another issue with 20Kc's WAIT, waiting for more details.  With the
2.6.23 release immindent simply disable the use of WAIT instead of a
more fancy workaround.
