mips: Replace ASSEMBLY with ASSEMBLER in the mips headers

2025-08-29T20:34:29Z

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__ automatically when compiling assembler code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. Defining such a macro was necessary in the early days of the kernel, since GCC only started providing __ASSEMBLER__ since version 3.0 in 2000 (see https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commitdiff;h=f8f769ea4e69 ). However, having two macros can be very confusing nowadays for the developers when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's now standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers. This is almost a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i" statement), with just one comment tweaked manually in arch/mips/include/asm/cpu.h (that was missing some underscores).

MIPS: CPS: Improve mips_cps_first_online_in_cluster()

2025-07-16T16:34:49Z

The initial implementation of this function goes through all the CPUs in a cluster to determine if the current CPU is the only one running. This process occurs every time the function is called. However, during boot, we already perform this task, so let's take advantage of this opportunity to create and fill a CPU bitmask that can be easily and efficiently used later. This patch modifies the function to allow providing the first available online CPU when one already exists, which is necessary for delay CPU calibration optimization.

MIPS: CPS: Introduce struct cluster_boot_config

2025-02-21T09:19:34Z

In preparation for supporting multi-cluster systems, introduce a struct cluster_boot_config as an extra layer in the boot configuration maintained by the MIPS Coherent Processing System (CPS) SMP implementation. For now only one struct cluster_boot_config will be allocated & we'll simply defererence its core_config field to find the struct core_boot_config array which can be used to boot as usual.

MIPS: Allows relocation exception vectors everywhere

2024-02-20T11:44:59Z

Now the exception vector for CPS systems are allocated on-fly with memblock as well. It will try to allocate from KSEG1 first, and then try to allocate in low 4G if possible. The main reset vector is now generated by uasm, to avoid tons of patches to the code. Other vectors are copied to the location later. move 64bits fix in an other patch fix cache issue with mips_cps_core_entry rewrite the patch to reduce the diff stat move extern in header use cache address for copying vector gc: use the new macro CKSEG[0A1]DDR_OR_64BIT() Signed-off-by: Jiaxun Yang Signed-off-by: Gregory CLEMENT Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer

MIPS: smp-cps: Don't rely on CP0_CMGCRBASE

2023-02-27T22:44:57Z

CP0_CMGCRBASE is not always available on CPS enabled system such as early proAptiv. For early SMP bring up where we can't safely access memeory, we patch the entry of CPS NMI vector to inject CMGCR address directly into register during early core bringup. For VPE bringup as the core is already coherenct at that point we just read the variable to obtain the address. Signed-off-by: Jiaxun Yang Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer

Update MIPS email addresses

2017-11-03T16:02:30Z

MIPS will soon not be a part of Imagination Technologies, and as such many @imgtec.com email addresses will no longer be valid. This patch updates the addresses for those who: - Have 10 or more patches in mainline authored using an @imgtec.com email address, or any patches dated within the past year. - Are still with Imagination but leaving as part of the MIPS business unit, as determined from an internal email address list. - Haven't already updated their email address (ie. JamesH) or expressed a desire to be excluded (ie. Maciej). - Acked v2 or earlier of this patch, which leaves Deng-Cheng, Matt & myself. New addresses are of the form firstname.lastname@mips.com, and all verified against an internal email address list. An entry is added to .mailmap for each person such that get_maintainer.pl will report the new addresses rather than @imgtec.com addresses which will soon be dead. Instances of the affected addresses throughout the tree are then mechanically replaced with the new @mips.com address.

MIPS: smp-cps: Pull boot config retrieval out of mips_cps_boot_vpes

2016-05-13T12:01:50Z

The mips_cps_boot_vpes function previously included code to retrieve pointers to the core & VPE boot configuration structs. These structures were used both by mips_cps_boot_vpes and by its mips_cps_core_entry callsite. In preparation for skipping the call to mips_cps_boot_vpes on some invocations of mips_cps_core_entry, pull the calculation of those pointers out into a separate function such that it can continue to be shared.

MIPS: pm-cps: Prevent use of mips_cps_* without CPS SMP

2014-07-30T18:47:39Z

These symbols will not be defined when CONFIG_MIPS_CPS=n, but although the CPS_PM_POWER_GATED state will never be used in that case the compiler doesn't have enough information to figure that out. Add checks which evaluate to a constant false for CONFIG_MIPS_CPS=n cases in order to help the compiler out & eliminate the symbol references.
