<id>urn:sha1:4fef6115903afed5a7f21b387ad132b4c8838bc7</id>
<content type='text'>
With the previous commit (9caea0007601: "parisc: Declare pci_iounmap()
parisc version only when CONFIG_PCI enabled") we can now enable
GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP unconditionally on alpha, and if PCI is not enabled we
will just get the nice empty helper functions that allow mixed-bus
drivers to build.

Example driver: the old 3com/3c59x.c driver works with either the PCI or
the EISA version of the 3x59x card, but wouldn't build in an EISA-only
configuration because of missing pci_iomap() and pci_iounmap() dummy
wrappers.

Most of the other PCI infrastructure just becomes empty wrappers even
without GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP, and it's not obvious that the pci_iomap
functionality shouldn't do the same, but this works.

<title>alpha: move __udiv_qrnnd library function to arch/alpha/lib/</title>

We already had the implementation for __udiv_qrnnd (unsigned divide for
multi-precision arithmetic) as part of the alpha math emulation code.

But you can disable the math emulation code - even if you shouldn't -
and then the MPI code that actually wants this functionality (and is
needed by various crypto functions) will fail to build.

So move the extended-precision divide code to be a regular library
function, just like all the regular division code is.  That way ie is
available regardless of math-emulation.

<content type='text'>
Ok, it almost certainly is still broken on actual hardware, but the
immediate reason for it having been marked BROKEN was a build error that
is fixed by just making sure the low-level IO header file is included
sufficiently early that the __EXTERN_INLINE hackery takes effect.

This was marked broken back in 2017 by commit 1883c9f49d02 ("alpha: mark
jensen as broken"), but Ulrich Teichert made me look at it as part of my
cross-build work to make sure -Werror actually does the right thing.

There are lots of alpha configurations that do not build cleanly, but
now it's no longer because Jensen wouldn't be buildable.  That said,
because the Jensen platform doesn't force PCI to be enabled (Jensen only
had EISA), it ends up being somewhat interesting as a source of odd
configs.

<title>alpha: make 'Jensen' IO functions build again</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cc9d3aaa5331577a8658e25473a27ba5949023d8</id>
<content type='text'>
The Jensen IO functions are overly copmplicated because some of the IO
addresses refer to special 'local IO' ports, and they get accessed
differently.

That then makes gcc not actually inline them, and since they were marked
"extern inline" when included through the regular &lt;asm/io.h&gt; path, and
then only marked "inline" when included from sys_jensen.c, you never
necessarily got a body for the IO functions at all.

The intent of the sys_jensen.c code is to actually get the non-inlined
copy generated, so remove the 'inline' from the magic macro that is
supposed to sort this all out.

Also, do not mix 'extern inline' functions (that may or may not be
inlined and will not generate a function body if they are not) with
'static inline' (that _will_ generate a function body when not inlined).
Because gcc will complain about this situation:

   error: ‘jensen_bus_outb’ is static but used in inline function ‘jensen_outb’ which is not static

because gcc basically doesn't know whether to generate a body for that
static inline function or not for that call site.

So make all of these use that __EXTERN_INLINE marker.  Gcc will
generally not inline these things on use, and then generate the function
body out-of-line in sys_jensen.c.

This makes the core IO functions build for the alpha Jensen config.

Not that the rest then builds, because it turns out Jensen also doesn't
enable PCI, which then makes other drievrs very unhappy, but that's a
separate issue.

<title>alpha: Declare virt_to_phys and virt_to_bus parameter as pointer to volatile</title>

Some drivers pass a pointer to volatile data to virt_to_bus() and
virt_to_phys(), and that works fine.  One exception is alpha.  This
results in a number of compile errors such as

  drivers/net/wan/lmc/lmc_main.c: In function 'lmc_softreset':
  drivers/net/wan/lmc/lmc_main.c:1782:50: error:
	passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_bus' discards 'volatile'
	qualifier from pointer target type

  drivers/atm/ambassador.c: In function 'do_loader_command':
  drivers/atm/ambassador.c:1747:58: error:
	passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_bus' discards 'volatile'
	qualifier from pointer target type

Declare the parameter of virt_to_phys and virt_to_bus as pointer to
volatile to fix the problem.

Most of the contents of setup.h have no value for userspace
applications.  The file was probably moved to uapi accidentally.

Keep the file in uapi to define the alpha-specific COMMAND_LINE_SIZE.
Move all other defines to arch/alpha/include/asm/setup.h.
