I'm supposed to use git-format-patch, right?

The new way is DT_MACHINE_START?

I'll try removing it altogether.

I'll take a look at Mans' DT clock code, but I want to simplify it.

Done.

One change is a temp wart for getting twd_clk until I have proper DT.

The other change is to remove CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP for my board.
(We discussed this in May.)

Thanks for your guidance. Just to get the ball rolling, here's
the full platform patch minus drivers.

Open question:

1) arch/arm/Kconfig vs arch/arm/mach-tangox/Kconfig
What goes in the first? What goes in the second?

The first only gets a single line to include the second.

Move this to the platform Kconfig file. Also, drop all the
'select' statements that are implied by ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
and ARCH_MULTI_V7

Keep this sorted alphabetically.

name this after the actual board you use, put everything that is not
specific to the board into a tango4.dtsi file.

A "simple-bus" does not have a 'reg' property normally. If you
have to program some of the registers, give it a different
compatible string that the driver for this bus can match.

You can probably drop the label.

Most of these are already implied by teh generic options.

CLK_OF_DECLARE() for the clk

CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE() for the clocksource/clockevent

Make these two drivers.

What is this for? Most platforms don't need this.

Never put 'extern' declarations into a .c file.

And any remaining select statements should be sorted alphanumerically,
and that goes for everywhere, especially when introducing a new select
statement.

Indeed - I really don't like that Kconfig doesn't error out over this
kind of thing.

I wrote the clock driver using some incomplete documentation for 865x,
additional details gleaned from ancient vendor kernel source, plus trial
and error on an 8643 chip.  If I could have done it any simpler, I would
have.  I don't have any information on the 87xx series, so it's possible
the clock tree is completely different there.

Oh... So all the platforms that define stuff in arch/arm/Kconfig
are just legacy at this point?

OK.

There is still a way to generate a kernel that supports only
one board though, right? (To minimize storage required.)

Right, sorry for the warts, some of this stuff was just randomly thrown
together in my attempts of getting it to run. I am aware of the
sorting requirements, and will follow them, of course.

Nothing in tango.dts is specific to the board. It's all in the SoC,
as far as I can tell.

Do you mean I should provide an empty mach/uncompress.h ?

I asked about this a long time ago. Maybe I didn't understand
Russell's answer?

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/402968

How do I force ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT to 5 for my platform?
It saves ~6% of the .data section size.
(Not worth it?)

Is there a simple way to remove what is unnecessary and not more?

You mean I should read CLKGEN_BASE through DT?

I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean here.
I will look at Mans' implementation.

IIUC, the idea was to optimize TLB entries by having a single
16MB super-section mapping. If every driver maps his little
500-byte area, the MMU code has to create lots of second
level mappings.

We might as well create one large mapping at init, no?

This logic slightly breaks down since AFAICT Linux doesn't
take advantage of super-sections.

I left .smp and .restart in comments because I need those, AFAIU?
Also I'm using the APPEND_DT_TO_UIMAGE option. I don't need the
atag_offset info?

Thanks for your comments, you've given me much to think about,
and much to fix.

It's really not worth the complexity in Kconfig to make it work - we
would need some way to detect a configuration where _only_ your
platform is enabled, and the statement for that is likely to be very
big, and very difficult to maintain into the future.

Sorry.

To a certain degree yes. I have patches for all ARMv6/ARMv7 platforms
that are not converted yet, and we are not accepting new platforms
outside of ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM.

You can probably just rename the file then, and have a board specific
dts file with just the /chosen and /aliases nodes.

No, add a debug/*.S file for your uart and do the configuration in
arch/arm/Kconfig.debug.

The UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE symbol is defined in arch/arm/Kconfig.debug,
and you should not duplicate that.

Look at ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM and ARCH_MULTI_V7 as a start.

Yes, until that is done, we are not merging this file.

Right, but if you do that, please add a comment for it, ideally
showing how much you gained from doing this in terms of vmalloc
space or real-life performance.

It's not wrong to have a mapping like this, just annoying enough
that we don't want to do it without a good reason.

There are other ways to do those too, see CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE()

No, the atag_offset is only use for native booting without a DT
(old-style board files), which you don't do.

Doh! I keep missing the ramifications of the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM setting.

How about overriding ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT *ONLY* when not building an
ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM kernel?

In my platform Kconfig, something along the lines of

config ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT
	int
	default 5 if !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM

Regards.

How would that be useful to you?  Arnd is saying that you will always
need ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM selected to build your platform.

This symbol doesn't automatically turn off just because you only have
one platform enabled.

I must be missing the big picture for ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM.

I thought modern ports /had/ to support it, but that it could
be disabled locally to build a single platform kernel?

config UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE
	string
	default "debug/uncompress.h" if ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || ARCH_MSM || \
					PLAT_SAMSUNG || ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M || \
					ARCH_SHMOBILE_LEGACY

I'm going for the smallest possible port, I don't have a debug/tango.S
I didn't define DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS in my .config, and I just wanted to
get this NOP definition from debug/uncompress.h

	static inline void putc(int c) {}

Are you saying I cannot do it like that?

If ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is defined, then debug/uncompress.h will be
included, just like I want.

If ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is not defined, can I do this in my port:

config UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE
	string
	default "debug/uncompress.h" if !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM

or add my platform to the list on arch/arm/Kconfig.debug?

ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is purely a Kconfig construct to allow separation of
platforms which support being built together, and those which don't.
It provides a certain basic level of support when enabled (such as DT,
CCF, etc.)  It remains enabled even if you only want to build for one
platform in the multi-platform group.

I've trimmed my platform Kconfig down to:

	bool "Sigma Designs Tango4 (SMP87xx)"
	default y
	select ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL
	select ARM_ERRATA_754322

Didn't find much documentation on ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL.
What is it used for?

http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL.html

Is it OK to select CACHE_L2X0, NEON, and SMP?

remove CACHE_L2X0, we want to be able to turn this off.

These should be user-selectable as well, so drop the 'select'
and make sure the kernel builds with them turned off.

You need this if the RAM is not physically contiguous, e.g. 256MB at one
address and another 256MB somewhere else.

I've done this higher up.

menuconfig ARCH_TANGOX
	bool "Sigma Designs Tango" if ARCH_MULTI_V7
	help
	  something useful

if ARCH_TANGOX
config ARCH_TANGO4
...
endif

So 'default y' enables ARCH_TANGO4 only if ARCH_TANGOX is selected,
right?

Some people run with L2 disabled? That's a strange thing to do.

It will build, but it won't run! My port uses the TWD for clockevents,
and smp_twd.c is only compiled if HAVE_ARM_TWD. So I must set SMP.

Then I have a major problem... my port requires SMP.

I can help for testing. Most importantly, we currently allow that
configuration today, and it's not up to you to forbid other platforms
from doing it.

If you can prove that we never need to disable that option, send
another patch to make it unconditional.

I think this has come up before and should be fixed. Could you
send a patch that allows using TWD in uniprocessor configurations?

I plan to add ARCH_TANGO5 in a few weeks. So I copied the layout used

As far as I can tell, I'm running with L2 disabled anyway, since
Linux is running in non-secure mode, and I didn't provide the ABI
to talk to the secure OS.

CACHE_L2X0 defaults to y. That's good enough for me.

About NEON. I had 'select VFP' but I see that CPU_V7 enables VFPv3 and VFP.
Isn't NEON required to support user-space programs using NEON instructions?

This was discussed here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/389931/focus=15737

I can re-post the same patch.

I'm taking cues from exynos and omap2, are these good references?

config ARCH_OMAP2PLUS_TYPICAL (default y) selects NEON if CPU_V7.
Can I do something similar? (My platform is only CPU_V7.)

No, you should leave it turned off and just enable that option in the
defconfig. There is no need to prevent anyone from running a kernel
with NEON disabled if they have matching user space.

Better start simple, I wouldn't expect there to be too much code
that is specific to just one of them to warrant a top-level Kconfig
option like on OMAP.

Hmmm, about that (splitting clock-tango.c in two drivers)

The "legacy" order of calls was:

  register_current_timer_delay
  sched_clock_register
  clocksource_register_hz
  /* Should the above 3 be called in a different order? */

then

  tangox_clock_tree_register

then

  of_clk_init
  clocksource_of_init
  /* To invoke the smp_twd OF init, after the clock tree is registered */


I moved the first three to a separate clocksource driver:

static void __init tango_timer_init(struct device_node *np)
{
	clkgen_base = of_iomap(np, 0);
	register_current_timer_delay(&delay_timer);
	sched_clock_register(read_sched_clock, 32, XTAL_FREQ);
	clocksource_register_hz(&tango_xtal, XTAL_FREQ);
}
CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE(tango, "sigma,tango-xtal", tango_timer_init);

But tango_timer_init() is not being called...

I updated my device tree with

	tango-xtal@10000 {
		compatible = "sigma,tango-xtal";
		reg = <0x10000 0x100>;
	};

Shouldn't the kernel call tango_timer_init?

Regards.

Why don't you use the drivers from my tree?  It has drivers for
everything clock related in tango3 and shouldn't need much tweaking to
work with tango4 as well.

Doh! I was using the wrong DTB...

By the way, the command I use to generate uImage feels wrong.
Is there a better way?

$ make dtbs ; make -j2 zImage ; cat arch/arm/boot/zImage arch/arm/boot/dts/tango4.dtb >XXX && mv XXX arch/arm/boot/zImage ; make uImage LOADADDR=0x80008000


My clocksource driver is fairly trivial:

#include <linux/of_address.h>	/* of_iomap			*/
#include <linux/sched_clock.h>	/* sched_clock_register		*/
#include <linux/clocksource.h>	/* clocksource_register_hz	*/
#include <linux/delay.h>	/* register_current_timer_delay	*/

#define XTAL_FREQ		27000000 /* Hz */

static void __iomem *xtal_in_cnt;

static unsigned long read_xtal_counter(void)
{
	return readl_relaxed(xtal_in_cnt);
}

static u64 read_sched_clock(void)
{
	return read_xtal_counter();
}

static cycle_t read_clocksource(struct clocksource *cs)
{
	return read_xtal_counter();
}

static struct clocksource tango_xtal = {
	.name	= "tango_xtal",
	.rating	= 300,
	.read	= read_clocksource,
	.mask	= CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(32),
	.flags	= CLOCK_SOURCE_IS_CONTINUOUS,
};

static struct delay_timer delay_timer = { read_xtal_counter, XTAL_FREQ };

static void __init tango_timer_init(struct device_node *np)
{
	xtal_in_cnt = of_iomap(np, 0);
	register_current_timer_delay(&delay_timer);
	sched_clock_register(read_sched_clock, 32, XTAL_FREQ);
	clocksource_register_hz(&tango_xtal, XTAL_FREQ);
}

CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE(tango, "sigma,tango-xtal", tango_timer_init);

Even better (and this is what I do) is you can append to that script
a command to copy it to your TFTP server, install modules, tar them
up, copy the modules to the target, and have the target automatically
reboot after the kernel build has finished (provided certain options
are given to the script.)

For a fair number of my active development boards, my kernel build and
boot process is just:

$ kbuild -r -m imx6 cbi4 ssh:hbi2ex hbi1

to build and boot an imx6 kernel on three imx6 machines, or just:

$ kbuild armada38x

to build and copy the armada38x kernel to the tftp server.

This is why people who think that copying kernels to SD cards is somehow
easier than TFTP boot - TFTP based booting is fully automated, no need
to constantly plug and unplug SD cards, wearing out their sockets.  You
can't get any simpler than running a script, walking away to make a
coffee, coming back and having your newly built kernel running on a
whole suite of platforms without any user intervention - complete with
updated modules on the target systems. ;)
