# 266337 17-May-2014 ian

MFC 263631, 263637, 263664, 263676, 263679, 263698, 263711,

Implement __flt_rounds for ARMv6 hard-float. The fpscr register stores the
current rounding mode used by the VFP unit.

Simplify how we build MACHINE_ARCH. There are 3 options that may be set
however only arm, armeb, armv6, and soon armv6hf will be used.

Add the llvm/clang patch for r263619.

Reorder the pmap macros so "ARM_MMU_V6 + ARM_MMU_V7" is first. As they are
identical this allows us to build for both v6 and v7 together.

Add code for enabling second CPU core for A20 SoC.
Enable SMP on Cubieboard2.

Switch to freebsd.org emal address in copyright.

263030, 263033, 263034, 263056, 263057,

Remove all the redundant external declarations of exception vectors and
runtime setting of the pointers that's scattered around various places.

Remove all traces of support for ARM chips prior to the arm9 series.

Make the default exception handler vectors point to where I thought they
were already pointing: the default handlers (not a panic that says there
is no default handler).

Eliminate irq_dispatch.S. Move the data items it contained into
arm/intr.c and the functionality it provided into arm/exception.S.

Move the exception vector table (so-called "page0" data) into exception.S
and eliminate vectors.S.

Change the way the asm GET_CURTHREAD_PTR() macro is defined so that code
using it doesn't have to have an "AST_LOCALS" macro somewhere in the file.

Arrange for arm fork_trampoline() to return to userland via the standard
swi_exit code in exception.S instead of having its own inline expansion
of the DO_AST and PULLFRAME macros.

Now that the PUSHFRAME and PULLFRAME macros are used only in the swi
entry/exit code, they don't need to be macros. Except that didn't work
and the whole change was reverted.

Remove some unnecessary indirection and jump right to the handler functions.

Use panic rather than printf to "handle" an arm26 address exception
(should never happen on arm32).

Remove the unreferenced DATA() macro.

Remove #include <machine/asmacros.h> from files that don't need it.

262950

Strip arm/conf/DEFAULTS down to just items that are mandatory for running
the architecture.

Move all the files named foo/common.c to foo/foo_common.c

Initial cut for DTS on the hl201 board.

Add commented out dts for sam9260ek as well as early printf support.

Make clock optional on uart nodes, then back it out ("I don't know what I
was thinking, but it is lame.")

Set the baud rate if it isn't 0

Make at91_soc_id() public.

Properly round at91 resource on unmapping.

Move AT91 AIC related stuff to own file.

Fix another bug in multicast filtering. i.MX uses 6 bits from MSB in
LE CRC32 for the hash value, not the lowest 6 bits in BE CRC32.

Follow r262916 with one more config file that references a renamed common.c

Remove bogus AT91 define that causes compile errors. Most of the defines
for SAM9X are going away soonish anyway (once FDT works), but until
then...

Remove all dregs of a per-thread undefined-exception-mode stack.

Rework the VFP code that handles demand-based save and restore of state.

Always call vfp_discard() on thread death.

When a thread begins life it doesn't own the VFP hardware state on any cpu.

Make undefined exception entry MP-safe.

# 254918 26-Aug-2013 raj

Introduce superpages support for ARMv6/v7.

Promoting base pages to superpages can increase TLB coverage and allow for
efficient use of page table entries. This development provides FreeBSD/ARM
with superpages management mechanism roughly equivalent to what we have for
i386 and amd64 architectures.

1. Add mechanism for automatic promotion of 4KB page mappings to 1MB section
mappings (and demotion when not needed, respectively).

2. Managed and non-kernel mappings are now superpages-aware.

3. The functionality can be enabled by setting "vm.pmap.sp_enabled" tunable to
a non-zero value (either in loader.conf or by modifying "sp_enabled"
variable in pmap-v6.c file). By default, automatic promotion is currently
disabled.

# 250338 07-May-2013 attilio

Rename VM_NDOMAIN into MAXMEMDOM and move it into machine/param.h in
order to match the MAXCPU concept. The change should also be useful
for consolidation and consistency.

__FreeBSD_ARCH_armv6__ is undefined on clang. We can use __ARM_ARCH in
it's place. This makes 'uname -p' correctly output 'armv6' on a kernel
built with clang.


# 239268 15-Aug-2012 gonzo

Merging projects/armv6, part 1

Cummulative patch of changes that are not vendor-specific:
- ARMv6 and ARMv7 architecture support
- ARM SMP support
- VFP/Neon support
- ARM Generic Interrupt Controller driver
- Simplification of startup code for all platforms


# 236992 13-Jun-2012 imp

# 235072 06-May-2012 imp

Fix the MACHINE_ARCH for big endian arm to be armeb.


# 224207 18-Jul-2011 attilio

Add the possibility to specify from kernel configs MAXCPU value.
This patch is going to help in cases like mips flavours where you
want a more granular support on MAXCPU.

No MFC is previewed for this patch.

Get rid of the _NO_NAMESPACE_POLLUTION kludge by creating an
architecture specific include file containing the _ALIGN*
stuff which <sys/socket.h> needs.


# 195376 05-Jul-2009 sam

Cleanup ALIGNED_POINTER:
o add to platforms where it was missing (arm, i386, powerpc, sparc64, sun4v)
o define as "1" on amd64 and i386 where there is no restriction
o make the type returned consistent with ALIGN
o remove _ALIGNED_POINTER
o make associated comments consistent

# 191309 20-Apr-2009 rwatson

Don't conditionally define CACHE_LINE_SHIFT, as we anticipate sizing
a fair number of static data structures, making this an unlikely
option to try to change without also changing source code. [1]

Change default cache line size on ia64, sparc64, and sun4v to 128
bytes, as this was what rtld-elf was already using on those
platforms. [2]

MFC after: 2 weeks
Suggested by: alc


# 191276 19-Apr-2009 rwatson

For each architecture, define CACHE_LINE_SHIFT and a derived
CACHE_LINE_SIZE constant. These constants are intended to
over-estimate the cache line size, and be used at compile-time
when a run-time tuning alternative isn't appropriate or
available.

Defaults for all architectures are 64 bytes, except powerpc
where it is 128 bytes (used on G5 systems).

When building a kernel module, define MAXCPU the same as SMP so
that modules work with and without SMP.


# 154128 09-Jan-2006 imp

By popular demand, move __HAVE_ACPI and __PCI_REROUTE_INTERRUPT into
param.h. Per request, I've placed these just after the
_NO_NAMESPACE_POLLUTION ifndef. I've not renamed anything yet, but
may since we don't need the __.

# 153168 06-Dec-2005 ru

Drop _MACHINE_ARCH and _MACHINE defines (not to be confused with
MACHINE_ARCH and MACHINE). Their purpose was to be able to test
in cpp(1), but cpp(1) only understands integer type expressions.
Using such unsupported expressions introduced a number of subtle
bugs, which were discovered by compiling with -Wundef.

Remove UAREA_PAGES and USPACE definitions. The definitions of
USPACE_SVC_STACK_TOP, USPACE_SVC_STACK_BOTTOM, USPACE_UNDEF_STACK_TOP,

alone.

# 103436 16-Sep-2002 peter

Initiate deorbit burn for the i386-only a.out related support. Moves are
under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.

Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.

Tested on: i386 (extensively), alpha
