Nobody is maintaining SMTC anymore and there also seems to be no userbase.
Which is a pity - the SMTC technology primarily developed by Kevin D.
Kissell &lt;kevink@paralogos.com&gt; is an ingenious demonstration for the MT
ASE's power and elegance.

Based on Markos Chandras &lt;Markos.Chandras@imgtec.com&gt; patch
https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6719/ which while very similar did
no longer apply cleanly when I tried to merge it plus some additional
post-SMTC cleanup - SMTC was a feature as tricky to remove as it was to
merge once upon a time.

This can happen if both the generic 8250 and another early console
driver are enable.  Fixed by using an auxilliary kconfig symbol to
restrict that choice.

Original posting:

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184202.F54094D9@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com

Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options.
They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly
differing help text.

This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig
boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug
to present the actual menu option.  This removes a bunch of
duplication and adds consistency across arches.

<title>lib: consolidate DEBUG_STACK_USAGE option</title>

<content type='text'>
Most arches define CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE exactly the same way.  Move it
to lib/Kconfig.debug so each arch doesn't have to define it.  This
obviously makes the option generic, but that's fine because the config is
already used in generic code.

It's not obvious to me that sysrq-P actually does anything caution by
keeping the most inclusive wording.

<title>kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6a108a14fa356ef607be308b68337939e56ea94e</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

This is just a test program for raw_spinlocks.  The main reason I
wrote it is to validate my spinlock changes that I sent in a previous
patch.

To use it enable CONFIG_DEBUG_FS and CONFIG_SPINLOCK_TEST then at run
time do:

# mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mips/spin_single
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mips/spin_multi

On my 600MHz octeon cn5860 (16 CPUs) I get

		spin_single	spin_multi
base		106885		247941
spinlock_patch	75194		219465

This shows that for uncontended locks the spinlock patch gives 41%
improvement and for contended locks 12% improvement (1/time).

This patch adds a new DEBUG_ZBOOT option to allow the users to enable it
to debug the compressed kernel support for a new board and this optoin
should be disabled to reduce the kernel image size and speed up the
kernel booting procedure when the compressed kernel support is stable.
