2008-01-27	[Blackfin] arch: Initial checkin of the memory protection support.	Bernd Schmidt	1	-0/+8
	Enable it with CONFIG_MPU. Signed-off-by: Bernd Schmidt <bernd.schmidt@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com>
2007-11-21	Blackfin arch: cleanup the cplb declares	Mike Frysinger	1	-21/+12
	- no need to declare their sizes in the common header - no need to tack on the section attribute as only the definition matters, not references Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <michael.frysinger@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com>
2007-07-12	Blackfin arch: Start untangling the CPLB handling code.	Bernd Schmidt	1	-120/+13
	- Move cache initialization to C from assembly. - Move anomaly workaround for writing [ID]MEM_CONTROL to assembly, so that we don't have to mess around with .align directives in C source. - Fix a bug where bfin_write_DMEM_CONTROL would write to IMEM_CONTROL - Break out CPLB related code from kernel/setup.c into their own file. - Don't define variables in header files, only declare them.

2007-06-21	Blackfin arch: defines and provides entry points for certain user space ↵	Bernd Schmidt	1	-2/+2
	functions at fixed addresses This patch defines (and provides) entry points for certain user space functions at fixed addresses. The Blackfin has no usable atomic instructions, but we can ensure that these code sequences appear atomic from a user space point of view by detecting when we're in the process of executing them during the interrupt handler return path. This allows much more efficient pthread lock implementations than the bfin_spinlock syscall we're currently using. Also provided is a small sys_rt_sigreturn stub which can be used by the signal handler setup code. The signal.c part will be committed separately.

2007-05-07	blackfin architecture	Bryan Wu	1	-0/+203
	This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561 (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP, BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards. The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean, orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single instruction-set architecture. The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete documentation, including "getting started" guides available at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for bfin-linux-uclibc This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution, uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can be found at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel [m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl: balance parenthesis in blackfin header files] Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Mariusz Kozlowski <m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl> Signed-off-by: Aubrey Li <aubrey.li@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Jie Zhang <jie.zhang@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
