2008-02-13[XTENSA] Allow debugger to modify the WINDOWBASE register.Chris Zankel
For the 'return' command, GDB needs to adjust WINDOWBASE. In case WB is different from 0, we need to rotate the window register file and update WINDOWSTART and WMASK. This patch also removes some ret|= statements for __get_user/__put_user as the address range was alrady checked a couple of lines earlier. Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>
2008-02-13[XTENSA] Add support for configurable registers and coprocessorsChris Zankel
The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch or during interrupt handling. This patch adds support for these additional states: - save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon interrupt entry and exit. - context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor - 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor - ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers - update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>

2008-02-13[XTENSA] Clean up elf-gregset.Chris Zankel
Remove additional registers from the ELF gregset structure that are only used by the kernel or are not required or invalid in user-space. The ar registers are always aligned to a windowbase value of 0, and the WB register is always assumed to be 0. Increase the size of the structure to 128 entries. This will provide enough space in future. Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>
2008-02-07Cleanup asm/{elf,page,user}.h: #ifdef __KERNEL__ is no longer neededKirill A. Shutemov
asm/elf.h, asm/page.h and asm/user.h don't export to userspace now, so we can drop #ifdef __KERNEL__ for them. [k.shutemov@gmail.com: remove #ifdef __KERNEL_] Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2007-05-31[XTENSA] Remove non-rt signal handlingChris Zankel
The non-rt signal handling was never really used, so we don't break anything. This patch also cleans up the signal stack-frame to make it independent from the processor configuration. It also improves the method used for controlling single-stepping. We now save and restore the 'icountlevel' register that controls single stepping and set or clear the saved state to enable or disable it. Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>
2006-12-10[PATCH] xtensa: remove extra header filesChris Zankel
The Xtensa port contained many header files that were never needed. This rather lengthy patch removes all those files. Unfortunately, there were many dependencies that needed to be updated, so this patch touches quite a few source files.

2005-11-07[PATCH] fix remaining missing includesTim Schmielau
Fix more include file problems that surfaced since I submitted the previous fix-missing-includes.patch. This should now allow not to include sched.h from module.h, which is done by a followup patch.
