2008-05-17Blackfin arch: IO Port functions to read/write unalligned memoryMichael Hennerich

2008-04-17Generic semaphore implementationMatthew Wilcox
Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and extensibility. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep warning. Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the unlikely() was unnecessary. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2007-11-17Blackfin arch: Add assembly function insl_16Michael Hennerich
/* * CPUs often take a performance hit when accessing unaligned memory * locations. The actual performance hit varies, it can be small if the * hardware handles it or large if we have to take an exception and fix * it * in software. * * Since an ethernet header is 14 bytes network drivers often end up * with * the IP header at an unaligned offset. The IP header can be aligned by * shifting the start of the packet by 2 bytes. Drivers should do this * with: * * skb_reserve(NET_IP_ALIGN); * * The downside to this alignment of the IP header is that the DMA is * now * unaligned. On some architectures the cost of an unaligned DMA is high * and this cost outweighs the gains made by aligning the IP header. * * Since this trade off varies between architectures, we allow * NET_IP_ALIGN * to be overridden. */ This new function insl_16 allows to read form 32-bit IO and writes to 16-bit aligned memory. This is useful in above described scenario - In particular with the AXIS AX88180 Gigabit Ethernet MAC. Once the device is in 32-bit mode, reads from the RX FIFO always decrements 4bytes. While on the other side the destination address in SDRAM is always 16-bit aligned. If we use skb_reserve(0) the receive buffer is 32-bit aligned but later we hit a unaligned exception in the IP code.

2007-11-17Blackfin arch: unexport get_wchanAdrian Bunk
The only user of get_wchan I was able to find is the proc fs - and proc can't be built modular. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com>
2007-11-18Blackfin arch: remove dump_thread()Adrian Bunk
The only user is the a.out support. It was therefore removed prior to the blackfin merge from all architectures not supporting a.out. Currently, Blackfin doesn't suppport a.out. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com>

2007-05-07blackfin architectureBryan Wu
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561 (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP, BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards. The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean, orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single instruction-set architecture. The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete documentation, including "getting started" guides available at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for bfin-linux-uclibc This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution, uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can be found at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel [m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl: balance parenthesis in blackfin header files] Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Mariusz Kozlowski <m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl> Signed-off-by: Aubrey Li <aubrey.li@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Jie Zhang <jie.zhang@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
