2012-06-18arch/tile: big-endian: properly bswap instruction bundles when backtracingChris Metcalf
Instruction bundles are always little-endian, even when running in big-endian mode. I missed this internal bug fix when cherry-picking the big-endian code to return to the community. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-11-03arch/tile: factor out <arch/opcode.h> headerChris Metcalf
The kernel code was using some <asm> headers that included a mix of hardware-specific information (typically found in Tilera <arch> headers) and structures, enums, and function declarations supporting the disassembly function of the tile-desc.c sources. This change refactors that code so that a hardware-specific, but OS- and application-agnostic header, is created: <arch/opcode.h>. This header is then exported to userspace along with the other <arch> headers and can be used to build userspace code; in particular, it is used by glibc as part of implementing the backtrace() function. The new header, together with a header that specifically describes the disassembly code (<asm/tile-desc.h> with _32 and _64 variants), replaces the old <asm/opcode-tile*.h> and <asm/opcode_constants*.h> headers. As part of this change, we are also renaming the 32-bit constants from TILE_xxx to TILEPRO_xxx to better reflect the fact that they are specific to the TILEPro architecture, and not to TILE-Gx and any successor "tile" architecture chips.

2011-05-02arch/tile: refactor backtracing codeChris Metcalf
This change is the result of some work to make the backtrace code more shareable between kernel, libc, and gdb. For the kernel, some good effects are to eliminate the hacky "VirtualAddress" typedef in favor of "unsigned long", to eliminate a bunch of spurious kernel doc comments, to remove the dead "bt_read_memory" function, and to use "__tilegx__" in #ifdefs instead of "TILE_CHIP".

2010-10-15arch/tile: support new info op generated by compilerChris Metcalf
This just syncs the backtracing support in the kernel to the upstream backtrace library. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2010-08-13arch/tile: support backtracing on TILE-GxChris Metcalf
This functionality was stubbed out until recently. Now we support our normal backtracing API on TILE-Gx as well as on TILE64/TILEPro. This change includes a tweak to the instruction encoding caused by adding addxli for compat mode. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2010-07-06arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.Chris Metcalf
This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse" and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the codebase tend to get tedious to read. Rather than trying to tease apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code: - sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals. - sparse: Fix __user annotations. - sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int. - sparse: removing functions not actually used. - checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.; also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code. - checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs. - checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments. In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in to this commit: - Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised. - Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI. - Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

2010-06-04arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.Chris Metcalf
This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips. No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet. This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic; and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
