<title>OMAPFB: use dma_alloc_attrs to allocate memory</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=0049fb2603b7afb1080776ee691dfa5a3d282357'/>
<id>urn:sha1:0049fb2603b7afb1080776ee691dfa5a3d282357</id>
<content type='text'>
Use dma_alloc_attrs to allocate memory instead of omap specific vram
allocator. After this we can remove the omap vram allocator.

There are some downsides to this change:

1) dma_alloc_attrs doesn't let us allocate at certain physical address.
However, this should not be a problem as this feature of vram allocator
is only used when reserving the framebuffer that was initialized by the
bootloader, and we don't currently support "passing" a framebuffer from
the bootloader to the kernel anyway.

2) dma_alloc_attrs, as of now, always ioremaps the allocated area, and
we don't need the ioremap when using VRFB. This patch uses
DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING for the allocation, but the flag is currently
not operational.

3) OMAPFB_GET_VRAM_INFO ioctl cannot return real values anymore. I
changed the ioctl to return 64M for all the values, which, I hope, the
applications will interpret as "there's enough vram".

4) "vram" kernel parameter to define how much ram to reserve for video
use no longer works. The user needs to enable CMA and use "cma"
parameter.

Update Samsung GPIO API documentation to reflect removal of
the s3c24xx specific gpio API. While at it, fix some typos.

The notes on conversion from s3c2410_* functions to the gpiolib
API are left here just in case there is any out of tree code that
still needs to be converted.

From Rob Herring &lt;robherring2@gmail.com&gt;:

This is the 2nd part of mach/io.h removals. This series removes io.h on
platforms with PCI by creating a fixed virtual I/O mapping and a common
__io() macro.

This version has changed a bit to accommodate Tegra converting its PCIe
host to a platform driver. Now the virtual space is only reserved during
early boot before .map_io() is called. The mapping is not created until
calling pci_ioremap_io which can be done at any point after vmalloc is
initialized.

I've gone back to fixed 64K windows for each PCI bus. This allows
removing all the i/o resource setup from the individually platforms and
placing it within the common ARM PCI code.

I've only tested versatilepb under qemu (with the model hacked up to
actually enable i/o space), so any testing is appreciated. iop3xx and
mv78xx0 have some risk of breaking as the PCI bus addresses are moved
to 0 from matching the cpu host bus addesss.

* cleanup/io-pci:
  ARM: iop3xx: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: mv78xx0: use fixed pci i/o mapping
  ARM: iop13xx: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  iop13xx: use more regular PCI I/O space handling
  ARM: orion5x: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: kirkwood: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: dove: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: footbridge: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: shark: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: integrator: remove trailing whitespace on pci_v3.c
  ARM: integrator: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: tegra: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: versatile: use fixed PCI i/o mapping
  ARM: move PCI i/o resource setup into common code
  ARM: Add fixed PCI i/o mapping
  i2c: iop3xx: use standard gpiolib functions
  i2c: iop3xx: clean-up trailing whitespace

<title>arm: add documentation describing Marvell families of SoC</title>

<content type='text'>
As stated in the introduction of the document, the families of ARM
SoCs at Marvell are very complicated, and it is difficult for
newcomers to understand the organization of this SoC family and how it
relates to the Linux kernel support for those hardware platforms.

This document is only at RFC stage for now, it requires reviews and
comments from the Marvell maintainers, the PXA maintainers and the MMP
maintainers. For correctness of course, but also to add any other
information that would be useful. For example, one of the thing that
wasn't clear how to detail in the documentation is how the SoCs relate
to each other in terms of hardware IP blocks. For example, most of the
Kirkwood/Dove/Armada 370-XP/etc. hardware IPs (I2C, SPI, USB, SATA,
etc.) are identical, while the PXA and MMP families are completely
separate.

---
Changes from v3:
 * Add Arnd Bergmann Acked-by.

Changes from v2:
 * Mention the plat-&lt;foo&gt; directory that each SoC family is using.
 * Take into account Eric Miao's comments on the PXA/MMP families: add
   PXA21x/PXA25x/PXA26x to the list, mention which processors are
   AP+CP or AP only. Clarify the comments on which SoCs were designed
   by Intel, which ones were designed by Marvell after the acquisition
   of the XScale family.
 * Mention long-term plans regarding the support of those SoC
   families.

Changes from v1:
 * Added publicly available datasheet for the 88F5182 pointed by
   Andrew Lunn.
 * Added publicly available datasheet for the 88F5281 found with
   Google searches
 * Mentionned the Feroceon core name where appropriate, and Sheeva
   where appropriate
 * Fixed the core names for PXA930, PXA935 and PXA955 after comments
   from Arnd Bergmann. Wikipedia is mistakenly suggesting that PXA93x
   are Sheeva-based, and there isn't much information available on the
   web about the 955.
