Linus Torvalds b293fca43b RISC-V Port for Linux 4.15 v9
This tag contains the core RISC-V Linux port, which has been through
 nine rounds of review on various mailing lists.  The port is not
 complete: there's some cleanup patches moving through the review
 process, a whole bunch of drivers that need some work, and a lot of
 feature additions that will be needed.
 
 The patches contained in this tag have been through nine rounds of
 review on the various mailing lists.  I have some outstanding cleanup
 patches, but since there's been so much review on these patches I
 thought it would be best to submit them as-is and then submit explicit
 cleanup patches so everyone can review them.  This first patch set is
 big enough that it's a bit of a pain to constantly rewrite, and it's
 caused a few headaches with various contributors.
 
 The port is definately a work in progress.  While what's there builds
 and boots with 4.14, it's a bit hard to actually see anything happen
 because there are no device drivers yet.  I maintain a staging branch
 that contains all the device drivers and cleanup that actually works,
 but those patches won't all be ready for a while.  I'd like to get what
 we currently have into your tree so everyone can start working from a
 single base -- of particular importance is allowing the glibc
 upstreaming process to proceed so we can sort out any possibly lingering
 user-visible ABI problems we might have.
 
 Copied below is the ChangeLog that contains the history of this patch
 set:
 
 (v9) As per suggestions on our v8 patch set, I've split the core architecture code
 out from our drivers and would like to submit this patch set to be included
 into linux-next, with the goal being to be merged in during the next merge
 window.  This patch set is based on 4.14-rc2, but if it's better to have it
 based on something else then I can change it around.
 
 This patch set contains just the core arch code for RISC-V, so while it builds
 an nominally boots, you can't print or take an interrupt so it's not that
 useful.  If you're looking to actually boot a system it would probably be
 better to use the full patch set listed below.
 
 We've collected a handful of tags from reviewers, and the remainder of the
 patch set only got minimal feedback last time.  Here's what changed:
 
  * We now use the device tree to initialize the timer driver so it's less
    tighly coupled with the arch port.
  * I cleaned up the defconfigs -- there's actually now just one, and it's
    empty.  For now I think we're OK with what the kernel sets as defaults, but
    I anticipate we'll begin to expand this as people start to use the port
    more.
  * The VDSO symbols version is sane.
  * We WFI while spinning in the boot loop.
  * A handful of comments have been added.
 
 While there are still a handful of FIXMEs in this patch set, we've started to
 get enough interest from various users and contributors that maintaining an out
 of tree patch set is starting to become a big burden.  Hopefully the patches
 are good enough to merge now, which will at least get everyone working in a
 more reasonable manner as we clean up the remaining issues.
 
 This patch set is also availiable on github
 
   https://github.com/riscv/riscv-linux/tree/riscv-for-submission-v9-arch
 
 as is the entire patch set necessary to get a more functional RISC-V system up
 and running, including a handful of patches that aren't ready for upstream yet.

 Hopefully I've managed to get everyone's feedback
 
 Here's the change highlights from the whole patch set:
 
 (v8) I know it may not be the ideal time to submit a patch set right now, as
 it's the middle of the merge window, but things have calmed down quite a bit in
 the last month so I thought it would be good to get everyone on the same page.
 There's been a handful of changes since the last patch set, but most of them
 are fairly minor:
 
 * We changed PAGE_OFFSET to allowing mapping more physical memory on 64-bit
   systems.  This is user configurable, as it triggers a different code model
   that generates slightly less efficient code.
 * The device tree binding documentation is back, I'd managed to lose it at some
   point.
 * We now pass the atomic64 test suite.  The SBI timer driver has been
 * refactored.
 
 (v7) It's been a while since my last patch set, but the changes han been fairly
 minimal:
 
  * The PCI cleanup patches have been dropped, we'll do them as a separate patch
    set later.
  * We've the Kconfig entries from CONFIG_ISA_* to CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_*, to make
    grep easier.
  * There have been a handful of memory model related tweaks in I/O land,
    particularly relating the PCI and the upcoming platform specification.
    There are significant comments in the relevant files.  This is still a WIP,
    but I think we're close to getting as good as we're going to get until we
    end up with some more specifications.
 
 (v6) As it's been only a day since the v5 patch set, the changes are pretty
 minimal:
 
  * The patch set is now based on linux-next/master, which I believe is a better
    base now that we're getting closer to upstream.
  * EARLY_PRINTK is no longer an option.  Since the SBI console is reasonable,
    there's no penalty to enabling it (and thus no benefit to disabling it).
  * The mmap syscalls were refactored a bit.
 
 (v5) Things have really started to calm down, so this is fairly similar to the
 v4 patch set.  The most interesting changes include:
 
  * We've moved back to a single patch set.
 
  * SMP support has been fixed, I was accidentally running on a non-SMP
    configuration.  There were various mistakes all over the tree as a result of
    this.
 
  * The cmpxchg syscalls have been removed, as they were deemed a bad idea.  As
    a result, RISC-V Linux systems mandate the A extension.  The corresponding
    Kconfig entry to enable builds on non-A systems has been removed.
 
  * A few more atomic fixes: mostly fence changes, but those resulted in a
    handful of additional macros that were no longer necessary.
 
  * riscv_early_sie has been removed.
 
 (v4) There have only been a few changes since the v3 patch set:
 
  * The cmpxchg64 syscall is no longer enabled on 32-bit systems.  It's not
    possible to provide this on SMP systems, and it's not necessary as glibc
    knows not to call it.
 
  * We provide a ELF_HWCAP so users can determine the ISA of the machine the
    kernel is running on.
 
  * The multi-line comments are in a better form.
 
  * There were a handful of headers that could be replaced with the asm-generic
    versions, and a few unnecessary definitions.
 
  * We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*.
 
  * A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up.
 
 (v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes:
 
  * We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets, which I've already
    sent out to the relevant maintainers.  I haven't included those patches in
    this patch set, but some of them are necessary to build our port.  A git
    tree that contains all our patch sets merged together lives at
    <https://github.com/riscv/riscv-linux/tree/riscv-for-submission-v3>.
 
  * The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being split per
    directory it is split per topic.  Hopefully this will make it easier to
    review the port on the mailing list.  The split is a bit rough, so you
    probably still want to look at the patch set as a whole.
 
  * atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now correct.  I've
    attempted to sanitize the various other memory model related code as well,
    and I think it should all be sane now aside from a handful of FIXMEs
    commented in the code.
 
  * We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not be
    multiplexed.  There is also a VDSO entry for compare and exchange, which
    allows kernels with the A extension to execute user code without the A
    extension reasonably fast.
 
  * Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for the Q
    extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few words to allow
    extensibility to future ISA extensions like the eventual V extension for
    vectors.
 
  * A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into separate patch
    sets now so I won't duplicate them here.
 
 (v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes:
 
   * We've split out our drivers into the right places, which means now there's
     a lot more patches.  I'll be submitting these patches to various subsystem
     maintainers and including them in any future RISC-V patch sets until
     they've been merged.
 
   * The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use the HVC helpers
     and is now significantly smaller.
 
   * We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big "fence".
     There's still some work to do here, specifically:
     - We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions.
     - The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences.
     - Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set.
 
   * We now have thread_info in task_struct.  As a result, sscratch now contains
     TP instead of SP.  This was necessary because thread_info is no longer on
     the stack.
 
   * A few shared routines have been added that we use instead of creating
     another arch copy.
