ARM: 8366/1: move Dual-Timer SP804 driver to drivers/clocksource

2015-06-02T08:58:18Z

The ARM Dual-Timer SP804 module is peripheral found not only on ARM32 platforms but also on ARM64 platforms. This patch moves the driver out of arch/arm to driver/clocksource so that it can be used on ARM64 platforms also.

time: move the timecounter/cyclecounter code into its own file.

2014-12-30T23:29:25Z

The timecounter code has almost nothing to do with the clocksource code. Let it live in its own file. This will help isolate the timecounter users from the clocksource users in the source tree. Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran Acked-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ARM: pxa: Add non device-tree timer link to clocksource

2014-07-23T10:02:39Z

As clocksource pxa_timer was moved to clocksource framework, the pxa_timer initialization needs to be a bit amended, to pass the necessary informations to clocksource, ie : - the timer interrupt (mach specific) - the timer registers base (ditto) - the timer clockrate Signed-off-by: Robert Jarzmik Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano

drivers: clocksource: add support for ARM architected timer event stream

2013-09-26T08:48:00Z

The ARM architected timer can generate events (used for waking up CPUs executing the wfe instruction) at a frequency represented as a power-of-2 divisor of the clock rate. An event stream might be used: - To implement wfe-based timeouts for userspace locking implementations. - To impose a timeout on a wfe for safeguarding against any programming error in case an expected event is not generated. This patch computes the event stream frequency aiming for a period of 100us between events. It uses ARM/ARM64 specific backends to configure and enable the event stream.

2013-09-06T20:21:16Z

Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Olof Johansson: "This branch contains code cleanups, moves and removals for 3.12. There's a large number of various cleanups, and a nice net removal of 13500 lines of code. Highlights worth mentioning are: - A series of patches from Stephen Boyd removing the ARM local timer API. - Move of Qualcomm MSM IOMMU code to drivers/iommu. - Samsung PWM driver cleanups from Tomasz Figa, removing legacy PWM driver and switching over to the drivers/pwm one. - Removal of some unusued auto-generated headers for OMAP2+ (PRM/CM). There's also a move of a header file out of include/linux/i2c/ to platform_data, where it really belongs.

pwm: Add new pwm-samsung driver

2013-08-12T19:53:22Z

This patch introduces new Samsung PWM driver, which is completely rewritten to be multiplatform- and DeviceTree-aware. In addition, remaining problems of old driver are fixed, such as: - proper handling of hardware variants, - synchronization on SMP systems, - handling of boundary parameter values, - hardware sharing with PWM clocksource driver, - undefined state of PWM output after stopping PWM channel.

clocksource: arch_timer: Add support for memory mapped timers

2013-07-31T23:13:37Z

Add support for the memory mapped timers by filling in the read/write functions and adding some parsing code. Note that we only register one clocksource, preferring the cp15 based clocksource over the mmio one. To keep things simple we register one global clockevent. This covers the case of UP and SMP systems with only mmio hardware and systems where the memory mapped timers are used as the broadcast timer in low power modes. The DT binding allows for per-CPU memory mapped timers in case we want to support that in the future, but the code isn't added here. We also don't do much for hypervisor support, although it should be possible to support it by searching for at least two frames where one frame has the virtual capability and then updating KVM timers to support it.

clocksource: arch_timer: Make register accessors less error-prone

2013-07-31T23:13:35Z

Using an enum for the register we wish to access allows newer compilers to determine if we've forgotten a case in our switch statement. This allows us to remove the BUILD_BUG() instances in the arm64 port, avoiding problems where optimizations may not happen. To try and force better code generation we're currently marking the accessor functions as inline, but newer compilers can ignore the inline keyword unless it's marked __always_inline. Luckily on arm and arm64 inline is __always_inline, but let's make everything __always_inline to be explicit.

clocksource: arch_timer: use virtual counters

2013-06-07T09:20:28Z

Switching between reading the virtual or physical counters is problematic, as some core code wants a view of time before we're fully set up. Using a function pointer and switching the source after the first read can make time appear to go backwards, and having a check in the read function is an unfortunate block on what we want to be a fast path. Instead, this patch makes us always use the virtual counters. If we're a guest, or don't have hyp mode, we'll use the virtual timers, and as such don't care about CNTVOFF as long as it doesn't change in such a way as to make time appear to travel backwards. As the guest will use the virtual timers, a (potential) KVM host must use the physical timers (which can wake up the host even if they fire while a guest is executing), and hence a host must have CNTVOFF set to zero so as to have a consistent view of time between the physical timers and virtual counters.
