2007-05-05[ARM] mm 10: allow memory type to be specified with ioremapRussell King
__ioremap() took a set of page table flags (specifically the cacheable and bufferable bits) to control the mapping type. However, with the advent of ARMv6, this is far too limited. Replace the page table flags with a memory type index, so that the desired attributes can be selected from the mem_type table. Finally, to prevent silent miscompilation due to the differing arguments, rename the __ioremap() and __ioremap_pfn() functions. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2006-07-01[ARM] 3692/1: ARM: coswitch irq handling to the generic implementationThomas Gleixner
Patch from Thomas Gleixner From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Switch the ARM irq core handling to the generic implementation. The ARM specific header files now contain mostly migration stubs and helper macros. Note that each machine type must be converted after this step seperately. This was seperated out from the patch for easier review. The main changes for the machine type code is the conversion of the type handlers to a 'type flow' and 'chip' model. This affects only the multiplex interrupt handlers. A conversion macro needs to be added to those implementations, which defines the data structure which is registered by the set_irq_chained_handler() macro. Some minor fixups of include files and the conversion of data structure access is necessary all over the place. The mostly macro based conversion was provided to allow an easy migration of the existing implementations. The code compiles on all defconfigs available in arch/arm/configs except those which were broken also before applying the conversion patches. The code has been boot and runtime tested on most ARM platforms.

2006-01-09[ARM] 3070/2: Add __ioremap_pfn() APIDeepak Saxena
Patch from Deepak Saxena In working on adding 36-bit addressed supersection support to ioremap(), I came to the conclusion that it would be far simpler to do so by just splitting __ioremap() into a main external interface and adding an __ioremap_pfn() function that takes a pfn + offset into the page that __ioremap() can call. This way existing callers of __ioremap() won't have to change their code and 36-bit systems will just call __ioremap_pfn() and we will not have to deal with unsigned long long variables. Note that __ioremap_pfn() should _NOT_ be called directly by drivers but is reserved for use by arch_ioremap() implementations that map 32-bit resource regions into the real 36-bit address and then call this new function.

2005-06-25[PATCH] ARM: Generic Dynamic Tick Timer support for ARM, take 4Russell King
This patch adds support for Dynamic Tick Timer for ARM. Dynamic Tick is also known as VST (Variable Scheduling Timeouts). Dynamic Tick has been in use in the OMAP tree since last October. The patch is not intrusive, and does not do anything unless CONFIG_NO_IDLE_HZ is defined. This patch has the following fixed based on comments from RMK: - Time is updated before calling interrupt handlers. - Added new interrupt flag SA_TIMER to avoid duplicate timer interrupts - Moved struct dyn_tick_timer to time.h until we at some point probably have an arch independent dyn-tick.h - Cleaned up testing for DYN_TICK_ENABLED in irq.c I've cleaned up this patch to fix some remaining issues: - Call the timer tick handler with irqs disabled, as it would be from a normal interrupt - if we have a dyn_tick, we better implement all methods. - generic timer_dyn_reprogram() call, to be called before sleeping - added command line option - "dyntick=" to allow boot-time control of this feature -- rmk Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
