tile: default to little endian on older toolchains

2015-01-13T15:13:30+00:00

Older toolchains may not specify __LITTLE_ENDIAN__, but older
toolchains were all little endian.  Don't make things unnecessarily
hard for those toolchains.

tile: avoid undefined behavior with regs[TREG_TP] etc

2014-11-13T14:39:26+00:00

Recent compilers warn about accesses to arrays past the end,
which is supported for pt_regs and sigcontext with the
intended alias past the end of regs[] to sp, tp, and lr
using TREG_SP, TREG_TP, and TREG_LR.

Make the intended usage explict by providing an anonymous
union of regs[56] on the one hand, and a short __regs[53]
on the other followed by the sp, tp, and lr fields, so the
aliasing is done explicitly and is visible to the compiler.

tile: remove support for TILE64

2013-09-03T18:53:29+00:00

This chip is no longer being actively developed for (it was superceded
by the TILEPro64 in 2008), and in any case the existing compiler and
toolchain in the community do not support it.  It's unlikely that the
kernel works with TILE64 at this point as the configuration has not been
tested in years.  The support is also awkward as it requires maintaining
a significant number of ifdefs.  So, just remove it altogether.

tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSO

2013-08-13T20:26:21+00:00

This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing
rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday().
Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add
AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace.
(You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0,
but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.)

Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.

tile: convert uses of "inv" to "finv"

2013-07-31T15:51:19+00:00

The "inv" (invalidate) instruction is generally less safe than "finv"
(flush and invalidate), as it will drop dirty data from the cache.
It turns out we have almost no need for "inv" (other than for the
older 32-bit architecture in some limited cases), so convert to
"finv" where possible and delete the extra "inv" infrastructure.

tile: avoid defining INT_MASK macro in

2013-02-04T17:53:15+00:00

Unfortunately, this name conflicts with a different use of
the name in various places through the tree, so don't provide
it for the kernel.  We preserve it for userspace to avoid
breaking any userspace code that relies on this definition.

This fixes a number of compile errors for various drivers that
are enabled by "allyesconfig".

arch/tile: clean up tile-specific PTRACE_SETOPTIONS

2012-12-14T17:56:54+00:00

Use the newer idioms for setting PTRACE_O_xxx and PT_TRACE_xxx flags.
Only set/clear tile-specific flags if the generic routine returns
success, since otherwise we want to avoid setting any flags at all.
Atomically update the ptrace flags with the new values.  Eliminate
the PT_TRACE_MASK_TILE bitmask and just shift PTRACE_O_MASK_TILE.
Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to avoid overlapping with generic bits.
