      MIPS: R12000: Enable branch prediction global history · 8d5ded16
      Joshua Kinard 提交于
      The R12000 added a new feature to enhance branch prediction called
      "global history".  Per the Vr10000 Series User Manual (U10278EJ4V0UM),
      Coprocessor 0, Diagnostic Register (22):
      
      """
      If bit 26 is set, branch prediction uses all eight bits of the global
      history register.  If bit 26 is not set, then bits 25:23 specify a count
      of the number of bits of global history to be used. Thus if bits 26:23
      are all zero, global history is disabled.
      
      The global history contains a record of the taken/not-taken status of
      recently executed branches, and when used is XOR'ed with the PC of a
      branch being predicted to produce a hashed value for indexing the BPT.
      Some programs with small "working set of conditional branches" benefit
      significantly from the use of such hashing, some see slight performance
      degradation.
      """
      
      This patch enables global history on R12000 CPUs and up by setting bit
      26 in the branch prediction diagnostic register (CP0 $22) to '1'.  Bits
      25:23 are left alone so that all eight bits of the global history
      register are available for branch prediction.

      MIPS: mipsregs.h: Add EntryLo bit definitions · 8ab6abcb
      James Hogan 提交于
      Add definitions for EntryLo register bits in mipsregs.h. The R4000
      compatible ones are prefixed MIPS_ENTRYLO_ and the R3000 compatible ones
      are prefixed R3K_ENTRYLO_.
      
      These will be used in later patches.

      MIPS: mipsregs.h: Add write_32bit_cp1_register() · 5e32033e
      James Hogan 提交于
      Add a write_32bit_cp1_register() macro to compliment the
      read_32bit_cp1_register() macro. This is to abstract whether .set
      hardfloat needs to be used based on GAS_HAS_SET_HARDFLOAT.
      
      The implementation of _read_32bit_cp1_register() .sets mips1 due to
      failure of gas v2.19 to assemble cfc1 for Octeon (see commit
      25c30003 ("MIPS: Override assembler target architecture for
      octeon.")). I haven't copied this over to _write_32bit_cp1_register() as
      I'm uncertain whether it applies to ctc1 too, or whether anybody cares
      about that version of binutils any longer.

      MIPS: Fix build with binutils 2.24.51+ · 842dfc11
      Manuel Lauss 提交于
      Starting with version 2.24.51.20140728 MIPS binutils complain loudly
      about mixing soft-float and hard-float object files, leading to this
      build failure since GCC is invoked with "-msoft-float" on MIPS:
      
      {standard input}: Warning: .gnu_attribute 4,3 requires `softfloat'
        LD      arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
      mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu-ld: Warning: arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
       uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/alchemy/common/prom.o),
       arch/mips/alchemy/common/sleeper.o uses -mhard-float
      
      To fix this, we detect if GAS is new enough to support "-msoft-float" command
      option, and if it does, we can let GCC pass it to GAS;  but then we also need
      to sprinkle the files which make use of floating point registers with the
      necessary ".set hardfloat" directives.

      MIPS: MT: Remove SMTC support · b633648c
      Ralf Baechle 提交于
      Nobody is maintaining SMTC anymore and there also seems to be no userbase.
      Which is a pity - the SMTC technology primarily developed by Kevin D.
      Kissell <kevink@paralogos.com> is an ingenious demonstration for the MT
      ASE's power and elegance.
      
      Based on Markos Chandras <Markos.Chandras@imgtec.com> patch
      https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6719/ which while very similar did
      no longer apply cleanly when I tried to merge it plus some additional
      post-SMTC cleanup - SMTC was a feature as tricky to remove as it was to
      merge once upon a time.
