Yeeloong 2F netbook has an KB3310B embedded controller to manage the LID
action. When the LID is closed or opened a SCI interrupt is sent out and
the corresponding event is saved to an EC register for later query.
Allow the LID open interrupt to wake the processor from wait mode if it is
in the suspend mode.

Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/685/
Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
With dynamic function tracer, by default, _mcount is defined as an
"empty" function, it returns directly without any more action . When
enabling it in user-space, it will jump to a real tracing
function(ftrace_caller), and do the real job for us.
Differ from the static function tracer, dynamic function tracer provides
two functions ftrace_make_call()/ftrace_make_nop() to enable/disable the
tracing of some indicated kernel functions(set_ftrace_filter).
In the -v4 version, the implementation of this support is basically the same as
X86 version does: _mcount is implemented as an empty function and ftrace_caller
is implemented as a real tracing function respectively.
But in this version, to support module tracing with the help of
-mlong-calls in arch/mips/Makefile:
MODFLAGS += -mlong-calls.
The stuff becomes a little more complex. We need to cope with two
different type of calling to _mcount.
For the kernel part, the calling to _mcount(result of "objdump -hdr
vmlinux"). is like this:
108: 03e0082d move at,ra
10c: 0c000000 jal 0 <fpcsr_pending>
10c: R_MIPS_26 _mcount
10c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS*
10c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS*
110: 00020021 nop
For the module with -mlong-calls, it looks like this:
c: 3c030000 lui v1,0x0
c: R_MIPS_HI16 _mcount
c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS*
c: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS*
10: 64630000 daddiu v1,v1,0
10: R_MIPS_LO16 _mcount
10: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS*
10: R_MIPS_NONE *ABS*
14: 03e0082d move at,ra
18: 0060f809 jalr v1
In the kernel version, there is only one "_mcount" string for every
kernel function, so, we just need to match this one in mcount_regex of
scripts/recordmcount.pl, but in the module version, we need to choose
one of the two to match. Herein, I choose the first one with
"R_MIPS_HI16 _mcount".
and In the kernel verion, without module tracing support, we just need
to replace "jal _mcount" by "jal ftrace_caller" to do real tracing, and
filter the tracing of some kernel functions via replacing it by a nop
instruction.
but as we have described before, the instruction "jal ftrace_caller" only left
32bit length for the address of ftrace_caller, it will fail when calling from
the module space. so, herein, we must replace something else.
the basic idea is loading the address of ftrace_caller to v1 via changing these
two instructions:
lui v1,0x0
addiu v1,v1,0
If we want to enable the tracing, we need to replace the above instructions to:
lui v1, HI_16BIT_ftrace_caller
addiu v1, v1, LOW_16BIT_ftrace_caller
If we want to stop the tracing of the indicated kernel functions, we
just need to replace the "jalr v1" to a nop instruction. but we need to
replace two instructions and encode the above two instructions
oursevles.
Is there a simpler solution? Yes! Here it is, in this version, we put _mcount
and ftrace_caller together, which means the address of _mcount and
ftrace_caller is the same:
_mcount:
ftrace_caller:
j ftrace_stub
nop
...(do real tracing here)...
ftrace_stub:
jr ra
move ra, at
By default, the kernel functions call _mcount, and then jump to ftrace_stub and
return. and when we want to do real tracing, we just need to remove that "j
ftrace_stub", and it will run through the two "nop" instructions and then do
the real tracing job.
what about filtering job? we just need to do this:
lui v1, hi_16bit_of_mcount <--> b 1f (0x10000004)
addiu v1, v1, low_16bit_of_mcount
move at, ra
jalr v1
nop
1f: (rec->ip + 12)
In linux-mips64, there will be some local symbols, whose name are
prefixed by $L, which need to be filtered. thanks goes to Steven for
writing the mips64-specific function_regex.
In a conclusion, with RISC, things becomes easier with such a "stupid"
trick, RISC is something like K.I.S.S, and also, there are lots of
"simple" tricks in the whole ftrace support, thanks goes to Steven and
the other folks for providing such a wonderful tracing framework!

If -pg of gcc is enabled with CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y. a calling to
_mcount will be inserted into each kernel function. so, there is a
possibility to trace the kernel functions in _mcount.
This patch add the MIPS specific _mcount support for static function
tracing. by default, ftrace_trace_function is initialized as
ftrace_stub(an empty function), so, the default _mcount will introduce
very little overhead. after enabling ftrace in user-space, it will jump
to a real tracing function and do static function tracing for us.
and -ffunction-sections is incompatible with -pg, so, disable it when
ftracer is enabled.

Add the Cisco Powertv cable settop box to the MIPS tree. This platform is
based on a MIPS 24Kc processor with various devices integrated on the same
ASIC. There are multiple models of this box, with differing configuration
but the same kernel runs across the product line.

This patch adds two new kernel options: CPU_SUPPORTS_CPUFREQ and
CPU_SUPPORTS_ADDRWINCFG to describe the new features of Loongons 2F and
replaces the several ugly #if clauses by them.
These two options will be utilized by the future loongson revisions and
related drivers such as the coming Loongson 2F CPUFreq driver.

Loongson 2F has built-in DDR2 and PCI-X controller. The PCI-X controller
has a programming interface similiar to the the FPGA northbridge used on
Loongson 2E.
The main differences between Loongson 2E and Loongson 2F include:
1. Loongson 2F has an extra address window configuration module, which
is used to map CPU address space to DDR or PCI address space, or map
the PCI-DMA address space to DDR or LIO address space.
2. Loongson 2F supports 8 levels of software configurable CPu frequency
which can be configured in the LOONGSON_CHIPCFG0 register. The coming
cpufreq and standby support are based on this feature.
Loongson.h abstracts the modules and corresponding methods are abstracted.
Add other Loongson-2F-specific source code including gcc 4.4 support, PCI
memory space, PCI IO space, DMA address.

To share the same kernel image amon different machines we have added the
machtype command line support.
In the old serial port implementation the UART base address is hardcoded as
a macro in machine.h which breaks with machtype, so change that to discover
the address dynamically. Also move the initialization of the UART base
address to uart_base.c to avoid remapping twice for early_printk.c and
serial.c.
