CPU_32v6K controls whether we use the ARMv6K extension instructions in the kernel, and in some places whether we use SMP-safe code sequences (eg, bitops.) MX3 prevents the selection of this option to ensure that it is not enabled for their CPU, which is ARMv6 only. Now that we've split the CPU_V6 option, V6K support won't be offered for MX3 anymore. OMAP prevents the selection of this option in an attempt to produce a kernel which runs on architectures from ARMv6 to ARMv7 MPCore. We now achieve this in a different way (see the previous patches). As such, we no longer need to offer this as a configuration option to the user.

Rather than turning off CPU domain switching when the build architecture includes ARMv6K, thereby causing problems for ARMv6-supporting kernels, turn it on when it's required to support a CPU architecture.

If CONFIG_CPU_V6 is enabled, we may or may not have the TLS register. Use the conditional code which copes with this variability. Otherwise, if CONFIG_CPU_32v6K is set, we know we have the TLS register on all supported CPUs, so use it unconditionally.

If CONFIG_CPU_V6 is enabled, avoid using the double-word exclusive instructions in the kernel's atomic implementations as these are not supported. Fall back to the generic spinlock code instead.

If CONFIG_CPU_V6 is enabled, we must avoid the byte/halfword/doubleword exclusive operations, which aren't implemented before V6K. Use the generic versions (or omit them) instead. If CONFIG_CPU_V6 is not set, but CONFIG_CPU_32v6K is enabled, we have the K extnesions, so use these new instructions.

If CONFIG_CPU_V6 is enabled, then the kernel must support ARMv6 CPUs which don't have the V6K extensions implemented. Always use the dummy store-exclusive method to ensure that the exclusive monitors are cleared. If CONFIG_CPU_V6 is not set, but CONFIG_CPU_32v6K is enabled, then we have the K extensions available on all CPUs we're building support for, so we can use the new clear-exclusive instruction.

Introduce a CPU_V6K configuration option for platforms to select if they have a V6K CPU core. This allows us to identify whether we need to support ARMv6 CPUs without the V6K SMP extensions at build time. Currently CPU_V6K is just an alias for CPU_V6, and all places which reference CPU_V6 are replaced by (CPU_V6 || CPU_V6K). Select CPU_V6K from platforms which are known to be V6K-only.

SMP requires at least the ARMv6K extensions to be present, so if we're running on SMP, the WFE and SEV instructions must be available. However, when we run on UP, the v6K extensions may not be available, and so we don't want WFE/SEV to be in the instruction stream. Use the SMP alternatives infrastructure to replace these instructions with NOPs if we build for SMP but run on UP.

As no one seems to really know which configuration options tie up with which boards, I thought I'd do some investigation and try to work it out. After discussion with some folk in linaro, I think I have this nailed. The names are updated to use the name on the front of the appropriate board user guide for the various baseboards, which I've taken to be the official name for each board. I haven't significantly updated the descriptions for the tiles as that is even less clear - as far as I can see on ARMs website, there is no Cortex-A9 tile for Realview EB - only ARM11MPCore, ARM1156T2F-S, ARM1176TZF-S and Cortex-R4F. So exactly what this 'Multicore Cortex-A9 Tile' is... Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

After changing the p2m mapping to a tree by commit 58e05027 xen: convert p2m to a 3 level tree and trying to boot a DomU with 615MB of memory, the following crash was observed in the dump: kernel direct mapping tables up to 26f00000 @ 1ec4000-1fff000 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<c0107397>] xen_set_pte+0x27/0x60 *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000 Adding further debug statements showed that when trying to set up pfn=0x26700 the returned mapping was invalid. pfn=0x266ff calling set_pte(0xc1fe77f8, 0x6b3003) pfn=0x26700 calling set_pte(0xc1fe7800, 0x3) Although the last_pfn obtained from the startup info is 0x26700, which should in turn not be hit, the additional 8MB which are added as extra memory normally seem to be ok. This lead to looking into the initial p2m tree construction, which uses the smaller value and assuming that there is other code handling the extra memory. When the p2m tree is set up, the leaves are directly pointed to the array which the domain builder set up. But if the mapping is not on a boundary that fits into one p2m page, this will result in the last leaf being only partially valid. And as the invalid entries are not initialized in that case, things go badly wrong. I am trying to fix that by checking whether the current leaf is a complete map and if not, allocate a completely new page and copy only the valid pointers there. This may not be the most efficient or elegant solution, but at least it seems to allow me booting DomUs with memory assignments all over the range.
