Using generic_defconfig directly is unlikely to be what a user actually
wants to do - it doesn't specify any particular ISA revision & it
doesn't enable any board or driver support, resulting in a largely
useless kernel.
Prevent users from using it directly, printing a helpful message to
point them in the right direction if they attempt to.

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.

The kernel contains a small amount of incomplete code aimed at
supporting old R6000 CPUs. This is:
- Unused, as no machine selects CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_R6000.
- Broken, since there are glaring errors such as r6000_fpu.S moving
the FCSR register to t1, then ignoring it & instead saving t0 into
struct sigcontext...
- A maintenance headache, since it's code that nobody can test which
nevertheless imposes constraints on code which it shares with other
machines.
Remove this incomplete & broken R6000 CPU support in order to clean up
and in preparation for changes which will no longer need to consider
dragging the pretense of R6000 support along with them.

When building a kernel for the microMIPS ISA, ensure that the ISA bit
(ie. bit 0) in the entry address is set. Otherwise we may include an
entry address in images which bootloaders will jump to as MIPS32 code.
I originally tried using "objdump -f" to obtain the entry address, which
works for microMIPS but it always outputs a 32 bit address for a 32 bit
ELF whilst nm will sign extend to 64 bit. That matters for systems where
we might want to run a MIPS32 kernel on a MIPS64 CPU & load it with a
MIPS64 bootloader, which would then jump to a non-canonical
(non-sign-extended) address.
This works in all cases as it only changes the behaviour for microMIPS
kernels, but isn't the prettiest solution. A possible alternative would
be to write a custom tool to just extract, sign extend & print the entry
point of an ELF executable. I'm open to feedback if that would be
preferred.

Disable stack checking on MIPS kernels. Some distribution toolchains

a80000000001d740: ffa0bfc0 sd zero,-16448(sp)

a80000000001d748: 67bdffc0 daddiu sp,sp,-64
Generally, this is undesirable, and especially on the SGI IP27

'_raw_spin_lock_irq' during early init.

When relocatable support for MIPS was merged, there was no support for
an architecture to add a postlink step for vmlinux. This meant that only
invoking a target within the boot directory, such as uImage, caused the
relocations to be inserted into vmlinux. Building just the vmlinux
target would result in a relocatable kernel with no relocation
information present.
Commit fbe6e37dab ("kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile")
recified this situation, so MIPS can now define a postlink step to add
relocation information into vmlinux, and remove the additional steps
tacked onto boot targets.

Convert the MIPS SEAD-3 board support to be a generic board, supported
by generic kernels.
Because the SEAD-3 boot protocol was defined long ago and we don't want
to force a switch to the UHI protocol, SEAD-3 is added as a legacy board
which is detected by reading the REVISION register. This may technically
not be a valid memory read & future work will include attempting to
handle that gracefully. In practice since SEAD-3 is the only legacy
board supported by the generic kernel so far the read will only happen
on SEAD-3 boards, and even once Malta is converted the same REVISION
register exists there too. Other boards such as Boston, Ci20 & Ci40 will
use the UHI boot protocol & thus not run any of the legacy board detect
functions.

Introduce a "generic" platform, which aims to be board-agnostic by
making use of device trees passed by the boot protocol defined in the
MIPS UHI (Universal Hosting Interface) specification. Provision is made
for supporting boards which use a legacy boot protocol that can't be
changed, but adding support for such boards or any others is left to
followon patches.
Right now the built kernels expect to be loaded to 0x80100000, ie. in
kseg0. This is fine for the vast majority of MIPS platforms, but
nevertheless it would be good to remove this limitation in the future by
mapping the kernel via the TLB such that it can be loaded anywhere & map
itself appropriately.
Configuration is handled by dynamically generating configs using
scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh, somewhat similar to the way powerpc
makes use of it. This allows for variations upon the configuration, eg.
differing architecture revisions or subsets of driver support for
differing boards, to be handled without having a large number of
defconfig files.

Add support for generating kernel images in the Flattened Image Tree
(.itb) format as supported by U-Boot. This format is essentially a
Flattened Device Tree binary containing images (kernels, DTBs, ramdisks)
and configurations which link those images together. The big advantages
of FIT images over the uImage format are:
- We can include FDTs in the kernel image in a way that the bootloader
can extract it & manipulate it before providing it to the kernel.
Thus we can ship FDTs as part of the kernel giving us the advantages
of being able to develop & maintain the DT within the kernel tree,
but also have the benefits of the bootloader being able to
manipulate the FDT. Example uses for this would be to inject the
kernel command line into the chosen node, or to fill in the correct
memory size.
- We can include multiple configurations in a single kernel image.
This means that a single FIT image can, given appropriate
bootloaders, be booted on different boards with the bootloader
selecting an appropriate configuration & providing the correct FDT
to the kernel.
- We can support a multitude of hashes over the data.

Commit c1a0e9bc88 ("MIPS: Allow compact branch policy to be changed")
added Kconfig entries allowing for the compact branch policy used by the
compiler for MIPSr6 kernels to be specified. This can be useful for
debugging, particularly in systems where compact branches have recently
been introduced.
Unfortunately mainline gcc 5.x supports MIPSr6 but not the
-mcompact-branches compiler flag, leading to MIPSr6 kernels failing to
build with gcc 5.x with errors such as:
mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mcompact-branches=optimal'
make[2]: *** [kernel/bounds.s] Error 1
Fixing this by hiding the Kconfig entry behind another seems to be more
hassle than it's worth, as MIPSr6 & compact branches have been around
for a while now and if policy does need to be set for debug it can be
done easily enough with KCFLAGS. Therefore remove the compact branch
policy Kconfig entries & their handling in the Makefile.

Commit 32098ec7bc ("MIPS: Makefile: Move the ASEs checks after

and also added the current cflags to the detection logic. However,
this introduced a few bugs. First of all, the mips-cflags should not
be quoted since that ends up being passed as a string to subsequent
commands leading to broken detection from the cc-option-* tools.
Moreover, in order to avoid duplicating the cflags-y because of how
cc-option works, we rework the logic so we pass only those cflags which
are needed by the selected ASE. Finally, fix some typos resulting in MSA
not being detected correctly.

The loongson 3A cores do not select a suitable -march option so the build
system uses the default one from the toolchain. This may or may not be
suitable for a loongson 3A build. In order to avoid that, we explicitly set
a suitable -march option for that core. Furthermore, some very old
compilers don't support -march= at all and there is the possibility of
toolchain combinations such as GCC 4.9 and binutils 2.24 for which
-march=loongson3a will result in MIPS64 R2 code being generated but then
rejected by GAS. So treat the Longsoon 3A as an R2 CPU.

We need to check the ASEs support against the core's CFLAGS instead

Building a 64bit kernel for the SGI O2 (IP32) and the SGI Indy (IP22) uses
the 'vmlinux.32' target, which converts the output 64-bit 'vmlinux' image
into a 32-bit wrapped image. This is needed for certain revisions of the
IP22 and IP32 ARCS PROMs to boot correctly, but this target is missing
from the 'archhelp' info that is emitted by 'make help'.

Starting with version 2.24.51.20140728 MIPS binutils complain loudly
about mixing soft-float and hard-float object files, leading to this
build failure since GCC is invoked with "-msoft-float" on MIPS:
{standard input}: Warning: .gnu_attribute 4,3 requires `softfloat'
LD arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu-ld: Warning: arch/mips/alchemy/common/built-in.o
uses -msoft-float (set by arch/mips/alchemy/common/prom.o),
arch/mips/alchemy/common/sleeper.o uses -mhard-float
To fix this, we detect if GAS is new enough to support "-msoft-float" command
option, and if it does, we can let GCC pass it to GAS; but then we also need
to sprinkle the files which make use of floating point registers with the
necessary ".set hardfloat" directives.

The kernel code overrides the default ISA as passed by the compiler
in quite a few places. This has unfortunate side effects when smartmips
is enabled leading to hundreds of warnings during build such as:
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:411: Warning: the `smartmips' extension requires MIPS32
revision 1 or greater
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:43: Warning: the 64-bit MIPS architecture does not support the
`smartmips' extension
[...]
Until the kernel code is fixed properly (if possible), disable all the
assembler warning messages to make the build logs readable again.
This has no runtime side effects but it makes it easier to spot
more critical warnings and problems during build.

This fixes a regression caused by commit
bb6c0bd3fd [MIPS: SB1: Fix excessive kernel
warnings.], that makes `-march=r5000' selected for compilation flags
rather than supposed `-march=sb1' with compilers that do not support the
ASE selection flags introduced with that change.
For example GCC 4.1.2 supports `-mips3d'/`-mno-mips3d' (and obviously
`-march=sb1'), however it does not support `-mdmx'/`-mno-mdmx'. As a
result the whole selection of flags fails and compilation resorts to using
`-march=r5000', meant for really old compilers indeed only.
It is always best to pick the flags individually unless we are absolutely
sure a set of flags was introduced to the toolchain together (`-march=sb1'
and `-mtune=sb1' would be a good example), and this change makes it happen
for CONFIG_CPU_SB1. Consequently the flags ultimately selected with GCC
4.1.2 are `-march=sb1 -Wa,--trap -mno-mips3d'

This patch introduces definitions for the MSA control registers and
functions which allow access to both the control & vector registers. If
the toolchain being used to build the kernel includes support for MSA
then this patch will make use of that support & use MSA instructions
directly. However toolchain support for MSA is very new & far from a
point where it can be reasonably expected that everyone building the
kernel uses a toolchain with support. Thus fallbacks using .word
assembler directives are also provided for now as a temporary measure.

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
"The most notable new addition inside this pull request is the support
for MIPS's latest and greatest core called "inter/proAptiv". The
patch series describes this core as follows.
"The interAptiv is a power-efficient multi-core microprocessor
for use in system-on-chip (SoC) applications. The interAptiv combines
a multi-threading pipeline with a coherence manager to deliver improved
computational throughput and power efficiency. The interAptiv can
contain one to four MIPS32R3 interAptiv cores, system level
coherence manager with L2 cache, optional coherent I/O port,
and optional floating point unit."
The platform specific patches touch all 3 Broadcom families. It adds
support for the new Broadcom/Netlogix XLP9xx Soc, building a common
BCM63XX SMP kernel for all BCM63XX SoCs regardless of core type/count
and full gpio button/led descriptions for BCM47xx.
The rest of the series are cleanups and bug fixes that are MIPS
generic and consist largely of changes that Imgtec/MIPS had published
in their linux-mti-3.10.git stable tree. Random other cleanups and
patches preparing code to be merged in 3.15"
