xtensa: dispatch medium-priority interrupts

2013-02-24T03:12:52+00:00

Add support for dispatching medium-priority interrupts, that is,
interrupts of priority levels 2 to EXCM_LEVEL. IRQ handling may be
preempted by higher priority IRQ.

xtensa: clean up files to make them code-style compliant

2012-12-19T05:10:25+00:00

Remove heading and trailing spaces, trim trailing lines, and wrap lines
that are longer than 80 characters.

xtensa: add device trees support

2012-12-19T05:10:23+00:00

Device trees allow specification of hardware topology and device
parameters at runtime instead of hard-coding them in platform setup
code. This allows running single binary kernel on a range of compatible
boards.

New boot parameters tag BP_TAG_FDT is allocated and a pointer to flat
device tree is passed in it.

Note that current interrupt mapping scheme uses single cell for
interrupt identification. That means that IRQ numbers used in DTS must
be CPU internal IRQ numbers, not external. It is possible to extend
interrupt identification to two cells, and use second cell to tell
external IRQ numbers form internal. That would allow to use single DTS
on multiple boards with different mapping of external IRQ numbers.

xtensa: add s32c1i sanity check

2012-12-19T05:10:22+00:00

Add a brief sanity test of S32C1I functionality.  This instruction
is needed by the kernel and userland as part of the base ABI
(including GCC atomic builtins, certain threading packages, future
atomic support in the C++ standard, etc).  However, correct operation
of this instruction requires some cooperation by hardware external to
the processor (such as bus bridge, bus fabric, or memory controller).
Minimally exercising this mechanism and reporting explicit status
early in the boot process is helpful to chip vendors using the Linux
kernel as a benchmark of correctness of hardware.

As it turns out, S32C1I is not exercised by the kernel and by uClibc
based userland as of early June 2008.  This is expected to change
soon as both incorporate more recent open source developments.

xtensa: fix boot parameters parsing

2012-10-16T04:43:15+00:00

Boot parameter tags with handlers are ignored like this:

	[    0.000000] Ignoring tag 0x00001003
	[    0.000000] Ignoring tag 0x00001001
	[    0.000000] Ignoring tag 0x00001004

because neither tagtable entries nor tag handlers appear in the vmlinux.

Fix tagtable definition attributes so that tag entries are not dropped.

Fix end of memory bank calculation in parse_tag_mem: it is intended to
round down to page size, but instead did something strange leading to
hang right after boot.

boot-* Makefiles, and sections from ld scripts.

Remove stale redboot code that used to pass initrd addresses in a3 and
a4 to _start.
