Hoist all the mergeinfo up to the root in preparation for enforcing merges
to the root only. All MFC's were rerecorded to the root.

Going forward, if an MFC includes mergeinfo, it will need to be made to
the root and committed from the root. Merges with --ignore-ancestry
or diff | patch can go anywhere.

The mergeinfo in HEAD is in a bad state from years of neglect and manual
tampering and this was branched into 10.x. This confuses the coalescing
code and prevents it from doing its job.

Turns out that there really isn't an RTC chip on this board, at all.


250436 10-May-2013 imp

Make the read/write routines default to the newer DS1337 part, but keep
the supported bits board specific.


250434 10-May-2013 imp

As requested, move this back to opt-in and list my boards.


250433 10-May-2013 imp

Remove the commented out code I just committed. If we need it, I'll
bring it back uncommented our, or rewrite it.


250428 10-May-2013 imp

Add support from GE Intelligent Platform Cavium Octeon boards. Add
options OCTEON_VENDOR_GEFES to enable support for these boards, to
match changes that GE publishes to the Octeon Simple Executive. Since
board types overlap with other boards, it is unlikely that we will
properly boot on other Octeon boards with OCTEON_VENDOR_GEFES enabled.
Tested extensively on the WANIC 6354, but I retained support for all
the other models. Some features need changes in the base kernel, and
those are in progress.


250426 10-May-2013 imp

Both my EBH5200 and GE WANIC 6354 have a RTC as well. It looks from
the Linux tree that they always include this chip in their FDT, so
make support for the ds1337 opt-out rather than opt-in. Now my boards
boot with the correct time.


250191 02-May-2013 imp

Expose cvmx_mgmt_port_num_ports() as a wrapper to the static
__cvmx_mgmt_port_num_ports() mostly to avoid exporting a function
starting with __.

245712 21-Jan-2013 jmallett

Fix packet reception and other issues arising from incorrect ASX clock
configuration on the physical ports of the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite.


244985 02-Jan-2013 jmallett

Use the right USB clock type on the EdgeRouter Lite. This fixes USB.


244984 02-Jan-2013 jmallett

Add basic support for the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite.

Note that USB does not currently work, and the flash is connected via USB, so
local storage is not working.


243587 27-Nov-2012 jmallett

Allow this file to build on FreeBSD.


243473 24-Nov-2012 jmallett

o) Have the FreeBSD kernel option "INVARIANTS" trickle down into the Simple
Executive code where similar invariant knobs exist.
o) Make the Simple Executive's warning function print "WARNING: " on the same
line as the warning it is displaying, rather than on a separate line.


243470 24-Nov-2012 jmallett

Use bootverbose to control debug printfs from the Cavium Simple Executive
code. Also remove an unnecessary CVMX_ENABLE_DEBUG_PRINTS conditional around
what is already a cvmx_dprintf.


243469 24-Nov-2012 jmallett

o) Add support for specifying a model of Octeon to target at compile-time,
reducing the number of runtime checks done by the SDK code.
o) Group board/CPU information at early startup by subject matter, so that e.g.
CPU information is adjacent to CPU information and board information is
adjacent to board information.


243265 19-Nov-2012 jmallett

Return port numbers for ATCA-7220 SPI interfaces in a different place for
consistency reasons, and to ensure that CRC addition is disabled on output.
With this, transmit seems to be working properly on the ATCA-7220.


243260 19-Nov-2012 jmallett

Fix packet receive on the ATCA-7220 by disabling FCS-related checks, since the
FCS is stripped by the underlying hardware before it reaches the Octeon.


242952 13-Nov-2012 jmallett

Fix build for FreeBSD kernel.


242423 01-Nov-2012 jmallett

Handle the management port on the EBT5600 and disable loopback. The XAUI
port connected to the Broadcom switch does not seem operable, but it's unclear
if that's simply due to a lack of configuration information for the switch.
The switch does not seem to present any identifying information via MDIO,
and is a BCM56512.


242342 30-Oct-2012 jmallett

Speed feature tests and initialize helper configuration that some CPUs require.


242273 29-Oct-2012 jmallett

Use Simple Executive LED display routines, which correctly use the LED base
address passed from the bootloader, rather than using a hard-coded value.

Make FreeBSD announce itself on the LED display similar to other kernels.

Remove uses of the previous LED routines, which were under-used and only used
in drivers for what seem like debugging purposes, despite those drivers being
widely-tested.

Remove several inlines for accessing memory that duplicate other functions
which are now used instead, as they are now entirely unused.


242116 26-Oct-2012 jmallett

No MII on the RSYS4GBE (AMC-7211/ATCA-7220).


242104 26-Oct-2012 jmallett

Add support for Radisys as a vendor of Octeon hardware. Add some preliminary
support for what their boot loader refers to as the "RSYS4GBE", of which there
are two instances ("Data Processing Blocks") on the Radisys ATCA-7220.


232915 13-Mar-2012 jmallett

Remove some files not used by the FreeBSD kernel which have been adding quite
a bit of bloat to the kernel source tree's size.


232816 11-Mar-2012 jmallett

Disable the Simple Executive's error decoding/reporting code.


232815 11-Mar-2012 jmallett

Do not try to use libfdt in FreeBSD.


232813 11-Mar-2012 jmallett

Remove files not needed by FreeBSD.


232812 11-Mar-2012 jmallett

Merge the Cavium Octeon SDK 2.3.0 Simple Executive code and update FreeBSD to
make use of it where possible.

This primarily brings in support for newer hardware, and FreeBSD is not yet
able to support the abundance of IRQs on new hardware and many features in the
Ethernet driver.

Because of the changes to IRQs in the Simple Executive, we have to maintain our
own list of Octeon IRQs now, which probably can be pared-down and be specific
to the CIU interrupt unit soon, and when other interrupt mechanisms are added
they can maintain their own definitions.

Remove unmasking of interrupts from within the UART device now that the
function used is no longer present in the Simple Executive. The unmasking
seems to have been gratuitous as this is more properly handled by the buses
above the UART device, and seems to work on that basis.

223758 04-Jul-2011 attilio

With retirement of cpumask_t and usage of cpuset_t for representing a
mask of CPUs, pc_other_cpus and pc_cpumask become highly inefficient.

Remove them and replace their usage with custom pc_cpuid magic (as,
atm, pc_cpumask can be easilly represented by (1 << pc_cpuid) and
pc_other_cpus by (all_cpus & ~(1 << pc_cpuid))).

This change is not targeted for MFC because of struct pcpu members
removal and dependency by cpumask_t retirement.

etire the cpumask_t type and replace it with cpuset_t usage.

This is intended to fix the bug where cpu mask objects are
capped to 32. MAXCPU, then, can now arbitrarely bumped to whatever
value. Anyway, as long as several structures in the kernel are
statically allocated and sized as MAXCPU, it is suggested to keep it
as low as possible for the time being.

Technical notes on this commit itself:
- More functions to handle with cpuset_t objects are introduced.
The most notable are cpusetobj_ffs() (which calculates a ffs(3)
for a cpuset_t object), cpusetobj_strprint() (which prepares a string
representing a cpuset_t object) and cpusetobj_strscan() (which
creates a valid cpuset_t starting from a string representation).
- pc_cpumask and pc_other_cpus are target to be removed soon.
With the moving from cpumask_t to cpuset_t they are now inefficient
and not really useful. Anyway, for the time being, please note that
access to pcpu datas is protected by sched_pin() in order to avoid
migrating the CPU while reading more than one (possible) word
- Please note that size of cpuset_t objects may differ between kernel
and userland. While this is not directly related to the patch itself,
it is good to understand that concept and possibly use the patch
as a reference on how to deal with cpuset_t objects in userland, when
accessing kernland members.
- KTR_CPUMASK is changed and now is represented through a string, to be
set as the example reported in NOTES.

Please additively note that no MAXCPU is bumped in this patch, but
private testing has been done until to MAXCPU=128 on a real 8x8x2(htt)
machine (amd64).

Please note that the FreeBSD version is not yet bumped because of
the upcoming pcpu changes. However, note that this patch is not
targeted for MFC.

People to thank for the time spent on this patch:
- sbruno, pluknet and Nicholas Esborn (nick AT desert DOT net) tested
several revision of the patches and really helped in improving
stability of this work.
- marius fixed several bugs in the sparc64 implementation and reviewed
patches related to ktr.
- jeff and jhb discussed the basic approach followed.
- kib and marcel made targeted review on some specific part of the
patch.
- marius, art, nwhitehorn and andreast reviewed MD specific part of
the patch.
- marius, andreast, gonzo, nwhitehorn and jceel tested MD specific
implementations of the patch.
- Other people have made contributions on other patches that have been
already committed and have been listed separately.

Companies that should be mentioned for having participated at several
degrees:
- Yahoo! for having offered the machines used for testing on big
count of CPUs.
- The FreeBSD Foundation for having sponsored my devsummit attendance,
which has been instrumental.
- Sandvine for having offered offices and infrastructure during
development.

(I really hope I didn't forget anyone, if it happened I apologize in
advance).


219694 16-Mar-2011 jmallett

o) Clean up FPA pools on module unload.
o) Allocate output buffer pool based on available output queues.

Submitted by: Bhanu Prakash (with modifications)


217214 10-Jan-2011 jmallett

o) Expand the CIU driver to be aware of newly-allocated parts of the IRQ range.
o) Add 'octm', a trivial driver for the 10/100 management ports found on some
Octeon systems.
o) Make the Simple Executive's management port helper routines compile on
FreeBSD (namely by not doing math on void pointers.)
o) Add a cvmx_mgmt_port_sendm routine to the Simple Executive to send an mbuf
so there is only one copy in the transmit path, rather than having to first
copy the mbuf to an intermediate buffer and then copy that to the Simple
Executive's transmit ring.
o) Properly work out MII addresses of management ports on the Lanner MR-730.
XXX The MR-730 also needs some patches to the MII read/write routines, but
this is sufficient for now. Media detection will be fixed in the future
when I can spend more time reading the vendor-supplied patches.


216476 16-Dec-2010 jmallett

o) Add support for the Lanner MR-321X/MR-325, which is just a modified MR-320.
o) On the Lanner MR-730, disable PCIe lane swap, per vendor.


215990 28-Nov-2010 jmallett

Merge Cavium Octeon SDK 2.0 Simple Executive; this brings some fixes and new
facilities as well as support for the Octeon 2 family of SoCs.

XXX Note that with our antediluvian assembler, we can't support some Octeon 2
instructions and fall back to using the old ones instead.


215014 08-Nov-2010 jmallett

o) Recognize the Lanner MR-730.
o) Fix enumeration of PHY addresses on the MR-955.
o) Parse link state for the MR-730 using the Broadcom PHY support in the SDK.
It's not clear that this is entirely-correct, but it seems to work. Since
this board uses a BCM5482S, this may mean that we work correctly for copper
but not SFI, which is untested.


213346 02-Oct-2010 jmallett

o) Allow devices to override the MDIO read and write functions presented to
the miibus attached to octe interfaces.
o) Add an SMI/MDIO interface to the MV88E61XX and use it for the switch PHY on
the Lanner MR-320. An actual driver for the switch PHY will come later.
Note that for now it intercepts and fakes MII_BMSR reads to prevent the
miibus from talking to anything but the switch itself.


212844 19-Sep-2010 jmallett

Add preliminary support for the Lanner MR-955. It boots multi-user but there
seem to be problems both with the on-board Ethernet interfaces and the em(4)
interfaces on PCI under FreeBSD.

Thanks to Lanner for providing access to hardware.


210311 20-Jul-2010 jmallett

Update the port of FreeBSD to Cavium Octeon to use the Cavium Simple Executive
library:
o) Increase inline unit / large function growth limits for MIPS to accommodate
the needs of the Simple Executive, which uses a shocking amount of inlining.
o) Remove TARGET_OCTEON and use CPU_CNMIPS to do things required by cnMIPS and
the Octeon SoC.
o) Add OCTEON_VENDOR_LANNER to use Lanner's allocation of vendor-specific
board numbers, specifically to support the MR320.
o) Add OCTEON_BOARD_CAPK_0100ND to hard-wire configuration for the CAPK-0100nd,
which improperly uses an evaluation board's board number and breaks board
detection at runtime. This board is sold by Portwell as the CAM-0100.
o) Add support for the RTC available on some Octeon boards.
o) Add support for the Octeon PCI bus. Note that rman_[sg]et_virtual for IO
ports can not work unless building for n64.
o) Clean up the CompactFlash driver to use Simple Executive macros and
structures where possible (it would be advisable to use the Simple Executive
API to set the PIO mode, too, but that is not done presently.) Also use
structures from FreeBSD's ATA layer rather than structures copied from
Linux.
o) Print available Octeon SoC features on boot.
o) Add support for the Octeon timecounter.
o) Use the Simple Executive's routines rather than local copies for doing reads
and writes to 64-bit addresses and use its macros for various device
addresses rather than using local copies.
o) Rename octeon_board_real to octeon_is_simulation to reduce differences with
Cavium-provided code originally written for Linux. Also make it use the
same simplified test that the Simple Executive and Linux both use rather
than our complex one.
o) Add support for the Octeon CIU, which is the main interrupt unit, as a bus
to use normal interrupt allocation and setup routines.
o) Use the Simple Executive's bootmem facility to allocate physical memory for
the kernel, rather than assuming we know which addresses we can steal.
NB: This may reduce the amount of RAM the kernel reports you as having if
you are leaving large temporary allocations made by U-Boot allocated
when starting FreeBSD.
o) Add a port of the Cavium-provided Ethernet driver for Linux. This changes
Ethernet interface naming from rgmxN to octeN. The new driver has vast
improvements over the old one, both in performance and functionality, but
does still have some features which have not been ported entirely and there
may be unimplemented code that can be hit in everyday use. I will make
every effort to correct those as they are reported.
o) Support loading the kernel on non-contiguous cores.
o) Add very conservative support for harvesting randomness from the Octeon
random number device.
o) Turn SMP on by default.
o) Clean up the style of the Octeon kernel configurations a little and make
them compile with -march=octeon.
o) Add support for the Lanner MR320 and the CAPK-0100nd to the Simple
Executive.
o) Modify the Simple Executive to build on FreeBSD and to build without
executive-config.h or cvmx-config.h. In the future we may want to
revert part of these changes and supply executive-config.h and
cvmx-config.h and access to the options contained in those files via
kernel configuration files.
o) Modify the Simple Executive USB routines to support getting and setting
of the USB PID.


210286 20-Jul-2010 jmallett

Import the Cavium Simple Executive from the Cavium Octeon SDK. The Simple
Executive is a library that can be used by standalone applications and kernels
to abstract access to Octeon SoC and board-specific hardware and facilities.
The FreeBSD port to Octeon will be updated to use this where possible.


210284 20-Jul-2010 jmallett

Initial import of Cavium Networks Octeon Simple Executive, SDK version 1.9.0.
