Our VDSO code makes use of macros from linux/irqchip/mips-gic.h to provide offsets to register values, but these are trivial offsets to the two 32 bit halves of a 64 bit value. Replace use of the macros with zero (ie. omit adding an offset) and the size of the low 32 bit of the value. This removes our need for linux/irqchip/mips-gic.h & prepares us for it to be removed.

Move the declarations of gic_get_c0_compare_int(), gic_get_c0_perfcount_int() & gic_get_c0_fdc_int() to asm/mips-gic.h in order to close in on being able to delete the former header.

In preparation for removing the gic_present global variable, switch to using the mips_gic_present() function instead. For the most part this is a straightforward substitution. In cases which previously wrapped the GIC case in an #ifdef CONFIG_MIPS_GIC that #ifdef has been removed, since mips_gic_present() will return a compile-time constant false allowing the affected code to be optimised out anyway.

This patch introduces a new header providing accessor functions for the MIPS Global Interrupt Controller (GIC) mirroring those provided for the other 2 components of the MIPS Coherent Processing System (CPS) - the Coherence Manager (CM) & Cluster Power Controller (CPC). This header makes use of the new standardised CPS accessor macros where possible, but does require some custom accessors for cases where we have either a bit or a register per interrupt. A major advantage of this over the existing include/linux/irqchip/mips-gic.h definitions is that code performing accesses can become much simpler, for example this: gic_update_bits(GIC_REG(SHARED, GIC_SH_SET_TRIGGER) + GIC_INTR_OFS(intr), 1ul << GIC_INTR_BIT(intr), (unsigned long)trig << GIC_INTR_BIT(intr)); ...can become simply: change_gic_trig(intr, trig); The accessors handle 32 vs 64 bit in the same way as for CM & CPC code, which means that GIC code will also not need to worry about the access size in most cases. They are also accessible outside of drivers/irqchip/irq-mips-gic.c which will allow for simplification in the use of the non-interrupt portions of the GIC (eg. counters) which currently require the interrupt controller driver to expose helper functions for access. This patch doesn't change any existing code over to use the new accessors yet, since a wholesale change would be invasive & difficult to review. Instead follow-on patches will convert code piecemeal to use this new header. The one change to existing code is to rename gic_base to mips_gic_base & make it global, in order to fit in with the naming expected by the standardised CPS accessor macros.

A SYNC is required between enabling the GIC region and actually trying to use it, even if the first access is a read, otherwise its possible depending on the timing (and in my case depending on the precise alignment of certain kernel code) to hit CM bus errors on that first access.

On systems that support MT ASE multithreading (ie. VPEs) we are very likely to want to include that support as default. Rather than setting it in various defconfigs, simply make CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP default y such that systems which select CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORTS_MULTITHREADING get it by default. As well as allowing us to remove the selection of CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP from various defconfigs, this also allows the generated generic defconfigs which derive from generic_defconfig to automatically gain support for MT ASE SMP when building for a suitable (pre-MIPSr6) ISA. For malta_kvm_guest_defconfig CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP is explicitly disabled since enabling SMP implicitly disables CONFIG_KVM_GUEST, which depends on CONFIG_BROKEN_ON_SMP.

The NI 169445 board uses a little endian MIPS32r2 CPU, and therefore including board support in kernels that are unable to run on such a CPU is pointless. Specify requirements in the board config fragment that cause the NI 169445 board support to only be included in generic kernels that target little endian MIPS32r2 CPUs. For example, NI 169445 support will be included when configuring using 32r2el_defconfig but not when using 64r6_defconfig.

Up until now when configuring a generic kernel all board config fragments have been merged by default unless boards are explicitly selected by the user specifying BOARDS=. In many cases this is sub-optimal, since some boards don't make sense to include in some kernels. For example the MIPS SEAD-3 development board has only ever been used with 32 bit CPUs, so including support for the SEAD-3 in a 64 bit kernel is wasteful. This patch introduces support for specifying requirements in board config fragments, using comments formatted like so: # require CONFIG_BLA=y For example the SEAD-3 board could specify that it should only be merged for 32 bit kernels using a requirement line like the following: # require CONFIG_32BIT=y A new generic-board-config.sh script is introduced to handle selecting the board config fragments to merge & calling merge_config.sh to merge them. In order to allow requirements to check Kconfig symbols that are implicitly selected, rather than explicitly specified by generic_defconfig or one of the ISA config fragments, an intermediate .config file is saved & used as a reference when checking requirements.
