The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it. Reviewed-by:

This reverts commit 86b1e8dd ("x86: Make relocatable kernel work with new binutils"). Markus Trippelsdorf reported a boot failure caused by this patch. The real solution to the original patch will likely involve an arch-generic solution to define an overlaid jiffies_64 and jiffies variables. Until that's done and tested on all architectures revert this commit to solve the regression. Reported-and-bisected-by:

While most users of a physical Malta board are using the serial port as the console, a lot of QEMU users would prefer to interact with a graphical console. Enable the Cirrus FB support in the Malta default configuration to make that possible. Note that the default console will still be the serial port, users have to pass "console=tty0" to the kernel to use the Cirrus FB. Signed-off-by:

Just do what everyone else is doing by placing __read_mostly things in the .data.read_mostly section. mips_io_port_base can not be read-only (const) and writable (__read_mostly) at the same time. One of them has to go, so I chose to eliminate the __read_mostly. It will still get stuck in a portion of memory that is not adjacent to things that are written, and thus not be on a dirty cache line, for whatever that is worth. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds initial support for various Atheros SoCs based on the MIPS 24Kc core. The following models are supported at the moment: - AR7130 - AR7141 - AR7161 - AR9130 - AR9132 - AR7240 - AR7241 - AR7242 The current patch contains minimal support only, but the resulting kernel can boot into user-space with using of an initramfs image on various boards which are using these SoCs. Support for more built-in devices and individual boards will be implemented in further patches. Signed-off-by:

On the off chance that uasm ever warns about overflow, there is no way to know what the offending instruction is. Change the printks to WARNs, so we can get a nice stack trace. It has the added benefit of being much more noticeable than the short single line warning message, so is less likely to be ignored. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a generic solution to support multiple machines based on a given SoC within a single kernel image. It is implemented already for several other architectures but MIPS has no generic support for that yet.

The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y option is broken with new binutils, which will make boot panic. According to Lu Hongjiu, the affected binutils are from 2.20.51.0.12 to 2.21.51.0.3, which are release since Oct 22 this year. At least ubuntu 10.10 is using such binutils. See: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12327 The reason of the boot panic is that we have 'jiffies = jiffies_64;' in vmlinux.lds.S. The jiffies isn't in any section. In kernel build, there is warning saying jiffies is an absolute address and can't be relocatable. At runtime, jiffies will have virtual address 0. Signed-off-by:

When profiling a benchmark that is almost 100% userspace, I noticed some wildly inaccurate profiles that showed almost all time spent in the kernel. Closer examination shows we were programming a tiny number of cycles into the PMU after each overflow (about ~200 away from the next overflow). This gets us stuck in a loop which we eventually break out of by throttling the PMU (there are regular throttle/unthrottle events in the log). It looks like we aren't setting event->hw.last_period to something same and the frequency to period calculations in perf are going haywire. With the following patch we find the correct period after a few interrupts and stay there. I also see no more throttle events. Signed-off-by:
