not pre-load the chip's Tx buffer, but instead waits for the Tx Ready
interrupt to transmit the first chunk of data.
* On the IOP310, set COM_HW_NO_TXPRELOAD, rather than COM_HW_TXFIFO_DISABLE.
This solves the "UART hangs" problem on the Npwr in a nicer way (i.e. we
get to use the FIFO, whee). The COM_HW_NO_TXPRELOAD happens to match the
Linux 16550 driver's Tx algorithm, and the "UART hang" was never observed
on the Npwr running Linux.
Eventually, we might want to eliminate the COM_HW_NO_TXPRELOAD, and simply
always use its algorithm. But it should be tested on more 16x50 variants
before we do that.
Kudos to Valeriy Ushakov <uwe@netbsd.org> for pointing out this solution
(which also happens to fix the stray UART interrupt issue on the Krups
Javastation), and to Allen Briggs <briggs@netbsd.org> for experimenting
with various methods of fixing this.
and pte_l2_s_cache_mode. The cache-meaningful bits are different
for these descriptor types on some processor models.
* Add pte_*_cache_mask, corresponding to each above, which has a mask
of the cache-meangful bits, and define those for generic and XScale
MMU classes. Note, the L2_S_CACHE_MASK_xscale definition requires
use of the Extended Small Page L2 descriptor (the "X" bit overlaps
with AP bits otherwise).
Significant cleanup, here, including better PTE bit names.
* Add XScale PTE extensions (ECC enable, write-allocate cache mode).
* Mechanical changes everywhere else to update for new pte.h. While
doing this, two bugs (as a result of typos) were fixed in
arm/arm32/bus_dma.c
evbarm/integrator/int_bus_dma.c
* Don't refer to VA 0, instead refer to a new variable: vector_page
* Delete the old zero_page_*() functions, replacing them with a new
one: vector_page_setprot().
* When manipulating vector page mappings in user pmaps, only do so if
the vector page is below KERNEL_BASE (if it's above KERNEL_BASE, the
vector page is mapped by the kernel pmap).
* Add a new function, arm32_vector_init(), which takes the virtual
address of the vector page (which MUST be valid when the function
is called) and a bitmask of vectors the kernel is going to take
over, and performs all vector page initialization, including setting
the V bit in the CPU Control register ("relocate vectors to high
address"), if necessary.
physical memory start. Garbage-collect some cruft while here.
* Move the kernel up to 0xc0000000, giving a 1G/3G kernel/user split.
* Adjust the Integrator startup code accordingly.
Note that this has been compiled on some systems, cats, IQ80310, IPAQ, netwinder and shark (note that shark's build is currently broken due to other reasons), but only actually run on cats.
Shark doesn't make use of the functionality as I believe there has to be a correlation between OFW and the kernel tables so that calls into OFW work.
to the L1 table and a virtual address, and no pointer to the L2 table.
The L2 table will be looked up by pmap_map_entry(), which will panic
if the there is no L2 table for the requested VA.
NOTE: IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT THE CORRECT VIRTUAL ADDRESS
BE PROVIDED TO pmap_map_entry()! Notably, the code that mapped
the kernel L2 tables into the kernel PT mapping L2 table were not
passing actual virtual addresses, but rather offsets into the range
mapped by the L2 table. I have fixed up all of these call sites,
and tested the resulting kernel on both an IQ80310 and a Shark.
Other portmasters should examine their pmap_map_entry() calls if
their new kernels fail.
and let pmap_map_chunk() lookup the correct one to use for the
current VA. Eliminate the "l2table" argument to pmap_map_chunk().
Add a second L2 table for mapping kernel text/data/bss on the
IQ80310 (fixes booting kernels with ramdisks).
interrupt code for the IQ80310 board support package.
XXX The Integrator board support package still uses the old-style
arm32 interrupt code, so some compatibility hacks have been added
for it. When the Integrator uses new-style interrupts, those hacks
can go away.
pass. Rather than providing a whole slew of cache operations that
aren't ever used, distill them down to some useful primitives:
icache_sync_all Synchronize I-cache
icache_sync_range Synchronize I-cache range
dcache_wbinv_all Write-back and Invalidate D-cache
dcache_wbinv_range Write-back and Invalidate D-cache range
dcache_inv_range Invalidate D-cache range
dcache_wb_range Write-back D-cache range
idcache_wbinv_all Write-back and Invalidate D-cache,
Invalidate I-cache
idcache_wbinv_range Write-back and Invalidate D-cache,
Invalidate I-cache range
Note: This does not yet include an overhaul of the actual asm files
that implement the primitives. Instead, we've provided a safe default
for each CPU type, and the individual CPU types can now be optimized
one at a time.
