This patchset:
(1)Preparation for adding GTDT support in arm_arch_timer:
1. Move some enums and marcos to header file;
2. Add a new enum for spi type;
3. Improve printk relevant code.
4. rename some enums and defines, and some cleanups.
5. separate out arch_timer_uses_ppi init code and fix a potential bug
6. Introduce some new structs and refactor the timer init code
(2)Introduce ACPI GTDT parser: drivers/acpi/arm64/acpi_gtdt.c
Parse all kinds of timer in GTDT table of ACPI:arch timer,
memory-mapped timer and SBSA Generic Watchdog timer.
This driver can help to simplify all the relevant timer drivers,
and separate all the ACPI GTDT knowledge from them.
(3)Simplify ACPI code for arm_arch_timer
(4)Add GTDT support for ARM memory-mapped timer, also refactor
original memory-mapped timer dt support for reusing some common
code.
This patchset has been tested on the following platforms with ACPI enabled:
(1)ARM Foundation v8 model
Changelog:
v15: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/15/
Re-order patches
Add arm_arch_timer refactoring patches to prepare for GTDT:
1. rename some enums and defines, and some cleanups
2. separate out arch_timer_uses_ppi init code and fix a potential bug
3. Improve some new structs, refactor the timer init code.
Since the some structs have been changed, GTDT parser for memory-mapped
timer and SBSA Generic Watchdog timer have been update.
v14: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/28/573
Separate memory-mapped timer GTDT support into two patches
1. Refactor the timer init code to prepare for GTDT
2. Add GTDT support for memory-mapped timer
v13: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg1231717.html
Improve arm_arch_timer code for memory-mapped
timer GTDT support, refactor original memory-mapped timer
dt support for reusing some common code.
v12: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/13/250
Rebase to latest Linux 4.8-rc6
Delete the confusing "skipping" in the error message.
V11: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/6/354
Rebase to latest Linux 4.8-rc5
Delete typedef (suggested by checkpatch.pl)
V10: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/26/215
Drop the "readq" patch.
Rebase to latest Linux 4.7.
V9: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/25/345
Improve pr_err message in acpi gtdt driver.
Update Commit message for 7/9
shorten the irq mapping function name
Improve GTDT driver for memory-mapped timer
v8: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/19/660
Improve "pr_fmt(fmt)" definition: add "ACPI" in front of "GTDT",
and also improve printk message.
Simplify is_timer_block and is_watchdog.
Merge acpi_gtdt_desc_init and gtdt_arch_timer_init into acpi_gtdt_init();
Delete __init in include/linux/acpi.h for GTDT API
Make ARM64 select GTDT.
Delete "#include <linux/module.h>" from acpi_gtdt.c
Simplify GT block parse code.
v7: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/13/769
Move the GTDT driver to drivers/acpi/arm64
Add add the ARM64-specific ACPI Support maintainers in MAINTAINERS
Merge 3 patches of GTDT parser driver.
Fix the for_each_platform_timer bug.
v6: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/6/29/580
split the GTDT driver to 4 parts: basic, arch_timer, memory-mapped timer,
and SBSA Generic Watchdog timer
Improve driver by suggestions and example code from Daniel Lezcano
v5: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/24/356
Sorting out all patches, simplify the API of GTDT driver:
GTDT driver just fills the data struct for arm_arch_timer driver.
v4: https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-acpi/2016-March/006667.html
Delete the kvm relevant patches
Separate two patches for sorting out the code for arm_arch_timer.
Improve irq info export code to allow missing irq info in GTDT table.
v3: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/1/658
Improve GTDT driver code:
(1)improve pr_* by defining pr_fmt(fmt)
(2)simplify gtdt_sbsa_gwdt_init
(3)improve gtdt_arch_timer_data_init, if table is NULL, it will try
to get GTDT table.
Move enum ppi_nr to arm_arch_timer.h, and add enum spi_nr.
Add arm_arch_timer get ppi from DT and GTDT support for kvm.
v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/12/2/10
Rebase to latest kernel version(4.4-rc3).
Fix the bug about the config problem,
use CONFIG_ACPI_GTDT instead of CONFIG_ACPI in arm_arch_timer.c
v1: The first upstreaming version: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/28/553
