      [ARM] 3995/1: iop13xx: add iop13xx support · 285f5fa7
      Dan Williams 提交于
      The iop348 processor integrates an Xscale (XSC3 512KB L2 Cache) core with a
      Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) controller, multi-ported DDR2 memory
      controller, 3 Application Direct Memory Access (DMA) controllers, a 133Mhz
      PCI-X interface, a x8 PCI-Express interface, and other peripherals to form
      a system-on-a-chip RAID subsystem engine.
      
      The iop342 processor replaces the SAS controller with a second Xscale core
      for dual core embedded applications.
      
      The iop341 processor is the single core version of iop342.
      
      This patch supports the two Intel customer reference platforms iq81340mc
      for external storage and iq81340sc for direct attach (HBA) development.

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells 提交于
      Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
      of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
      Linux kernel.
      
      The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
      space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
      from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
      (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
      
      Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
      something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
      maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
      handling.
      
      Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
      through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
      device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
      interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
      device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
      layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
      
      I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
      main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
      I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
      with minimal configurations.
      
      This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
      Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
      
      	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
      
      And put the old one back at the end:
      
      	set_irq_regs(old_regs);
      
      Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
      
      In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
      
      	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
      	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
      	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
      	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
      
      I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
      except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
      
      Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
      
       (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
           the input_dev struct.
      
       (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
           something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
           pointer or not.
      
       (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
           irq_handler_t.

      [PATCH] SCX200_ACB: eliminate spurious timeout errors · 3e3183ba
      David Woodhouse 提交于
      While busy-waiting for completion, check the hardware after scheduling;
      don't schedule and then immediately check the _timeout_.  If the yield()
      took a long time (as it does on my OLPC prototype board when it's busy),
      we'd report a timeout even though the hardware was now ready.
      
      This fixes it, and also switches the yield() for a cond_resched() because
      we don't actually want to be _that_ nice about it.  I see nice
      tightly-packed SMBus transactions now, rather than waiting for milliseconds
      between successive phases.
      
      Actually, we shouldn't be busy-waiting here at all.  We should be using
      interrupts.  That's an exercise for another day though.
