sparc64: Patch sun4v code sequences properly on module load.

2012-01-06T22:17:24Z

[ Upstream commit 0b64120cceb86e93cb1bda0dc055f13016646907 ] Some of the sun4v code patching occurs in inline functions visible to, and usable by, modules. Therefore we have to patch them up during module load. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

sparc: Make '-p' boot option meaningful again.

2011-09-21T19:48:06Z

If "-p" is given on the command line, clear the CON_BOOT flag for the initial early boot PROM console. This is necessary to try and see crash messages that occur between the registry of the VT console and the probing of the first framebuffer or serial console. During this time no console messages are emitted because the VT console registry (even if no backend is registered to it) removes the early console if CON_BOOT is set. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc64: Future proof Niagara cpu detection.

2011-09-16T21:21:33Z

Recognize T4 and T5 chips. Treating them both as "T2 plus other stuff" should be extremely safe and make sure distributions will work when those chips actually ship to customers. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc64: Only Panther cheetah+ chips have POPC.

sparc: Use popc when possible for ffs/__ffs/ffz.

sparc: Use popc if possible for hweight routines.

2011-08-03T04:28:50Z

Just like powerpc, we code patch at boot time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc: Sanitize cpu feature detection and reporting.

2011-07-29T06:31:26Z

Instead of evaluating the cpu features for ELF_HWCAP every exec, calculate it once at boot time. Add AV_SPARC_* capability flag bits, compatible with what Solaris reports to applications. Report these capabilities once in the kernel log, and also via /proc/cpuinfo in a new "cpucaps" entry. If available, fetch the cpu features from the machine description 'hwcap-list' property of the 'cpu' node. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc: Remove unnecessary semicolons

2011-06-07T23:06:34Z

Semicolons are not necessary after switch/while/for/if braces so remove them. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sparc: consolidate show_cpuinfo in cpu.c

2011-04-21T22:45:45Z

We have all the cpu related info in cpu.c - so move the remaining functions to support /proc/cpuinfo to this file. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

of/sparc: convert various prom_* functions to use phandle

2010-10-09T08:33:34Z

Rather than passing around ints everywhere, use the phandle type where appropriate for the various functions that talk to the PROM. Signed-off-by: Andres Salomon Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Grant Likely
