      ARM: msm: Rework timer binding to be more general · eebdb0c1
      由 Stephen Boyd 提交于 
      The msm timer binding I wrote is bad. First off, the clock
frequency in the binding for the dgt is wrong. Software divides
down the input rate by 4 to achieve the rate listed in the
binding. We also treat each individual timer as a separate
hardware component, when in reality there is one timer block
(that may be duplicated per cpu) with multiple timers within it.
Depending on the version of the hardware there can be one or two
general purpose timers, status and divider control registers, and
an entirely different register layout.

In the next patch we'll need to know about the different register
layouts so that we can properly check the status register after
clearing the count. The current binding makes this complicated
because the general purpose timer's reg property doesn't indicate
where that status register is, and in fact it is beyond the size
of the reg property.

Clean all this up by just having one node for the timer hardware,
and describe all the interrupts and clock frequencies supported
while having one reg property that covers the entire timer
register region. We'll use the compatible field in the future to
determine different register layouts and if we should read the
status registers, etc.

      ARM: 7666/1: decompressor: add -mno-single-pic-base for building the decompressor · b8083f86
      由 Jonathan Austin 提交于 
      Before jumping to (position independent) C-code from the decompressor's
assembler world we set-up the C environment. This setup currently does not
set r9, which for arm-none-uclinux-uclibceabi toolchains is by default
expected to be the PIC offset base register (IE should point to the
beginning of the GOT).

Currently, therefore, in order to build working kernels that use the
decompressor it is necessary to use an arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain, or
similar. uClinux toolchains cause a prefetch abort to occur at the beginning
of the decompress_kernel function.

This patch allows uClinux toolchains to build bootable zImages by forcing
the -mno-single-pic-base option, which ensures that the location of the GOT
is re-derived each time it is required, and r9 becomes free for use as a
general purpose register.

This has a small (4% in instruction terms) advantage over the alternative of
setting r9 to point to the GOT before calling into the C-world.
