      ARC: SMP support · 41195d23
      Vineet Gupta 提交于
      ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions.
      
      ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are
      are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This
      includes:
      -Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI)
      -Cache coherency
      -load-locked/store-conditional
      ...
      
      The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP
      because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit
      of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler
      prologues to keep them re-entrant.
      
      Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to
      SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help
      with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012).
      
      Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so
      multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is
      addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

      ARC: MMU Context Management · f1f3347d
      Vineet Gupta 提交于
      ARC700 MMU provides for tagging TLB entries with a 8-bit ASID to avoid
      having to flush the TLB every task switch.
      
      It also allows for a quick way to invalidate all the TLB entries for
      task useful for:
      * COW sementics during fork()
      * task exit()ing
