ARC: clocksource: DT based probe

2016-05-09T04:02:30Z

- Remove explicit clocksource setup and let it be done by OF framework by defining CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE() for various timers - This allows multiple clocksources to be potentially registered simultaneouly: previously we could only do one - as all of them had same arc_counter_setup() routine for registration - Setup routines also ensure that the underlying timer actually exists. - Remove some of the panic() calls if underlying timer is NOT detected as fallback clocksource might still be available 1. If GRFC doesn't exist, jiffies clocksource gets registered anyways 2. if RTC doesn't exist, TIMER1 can take over (as it is always present) Cc: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: clockevent: DT based probe

2016-05-09T04:02:29Z

- timer frequency is derived from DT (no longer rely on top level DT "clock-frequency" probed early and exported by asm/clk.h) - TIMER0_IRQ need not be exported across arch code, confined to intc as it is property of same - Any failures in clockevent setup are considered pedantic and system panic()'s as there is no generic fallback (unlike clocksource where a jiffies based soft clocksource always exists) Acked-by: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: clockevent: Prepare for DT based probe

2016-05-09T04:02:29Z

- call clocksource_probe() - This in turns needs of_clk_init() to be called earlier Cc: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: Noam Camus [vgupta: broken off from a bigger patch] Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: clockevent: switch to cpu notifier for clockevent setup

2016-05-09T04:02:28Z

ARC Timers so far have been handled as "legacy" w/o explicit description in DT. This poses challenge for newer platforms wanting to use them. This series will eventually help move timers over to DT. This patch does a small change of using a CPU notifier to set clockevent on non-boot CPUs. So explicit setup is done only on boot CPU (which will later be done by DT) Signed-off-by: Noam Camus [vgupta: broken off from a bigger patch] Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: opencode arc_request_percpu_irq

2016-05-09T04:02:28Z

- The idea is to remove the API usage since it has a subltle design flaw - relies on being called on cpu0 first. This is true for some early per cpu irqs such as TIMER/IPI, but not for late probed per cpu peripherals such a perf. And it's usage in perf has already bitten us once: see c6317bc7c5ab ("ARCv2: perf: Ensure perf intr gets enabled on all cores") where we ended up open coding it anyways - The seeming duplication will go away once we start using cpu notifier for timer setup Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: remove @init_time, @init_irq platform callbacks

2015-10-28T10:43:39Z

These are not in use for ARC platforms. Moreover DT mechanims exist to probe them w/o explicit platform calls. - clocksource drivers can use CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE() - intc IRQCHIP_DECLARE() calls + cascading inside DT allows external intc to be probed automatically Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC/time: Migrate to new 'set-state' interface

2015-07-20T10:30:31Z

Migrate arc driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete now. This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED. Cc: Vineet Gupta Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta
