![]() Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle: "This is an unusually large pull request for MIPS - in parts because lots of patches missed the 3.18 deadline but primarily because some folks opened the flood gates. - Retire the MIPS-specific phys_t with the generic phys_addr_t. - Improvments for the backtrace code used by oprofile. - Better backtraces on SMP systems. - Cleanups for the Octeon platform code. - Cleanups and fixes for the Loongson platform code. - Cleanups and fixes to the firmware library. - Switch ATH79 platform to use the firmware library. - Grand overhault to the SEAD3 and Malta interrupt code. - Move the GIC interrupt code to drivers/irqchip - Lots of GIC cleanups and updates to the GIC code to use modern IRQ infrastructures and features of the kernel. - OF documentation updates for the GIC bindings - Move GIC clocksource driver to drivers/clocksource - Merge GIC clocksource driver with clockevent driver. - Further updates to bring the GIC clocksource driver up to date. - R3000 TLB code cleanups - Improvments to the Loongson 3 platform code. - Convert pr_warning to pr_warn. - Merge a bunch of small lantiq and ralink fixes that have been staged/lingering inside the openwrt tree for a while. - Update archhelp for IP22/IP32 - Fix a number of issues for Loongson 1B. - New clocksource and clockevent driver for Loongson 1B. - Further work on clk handling for Loongson 1B. - Platform work for Broadcom BMIPS. - Error handling cleanups for TurboChannel. - Fixes and optimization to the microMIPS support. - Option to disable the FTLB. - Dump more relevant information on machine check exception - Change binfmt to allow arch to examine PT_*PROC headers - Support for new style FPU register model in O32 - VDSO randomization. - BCM47xx cleanups - BCM47xx reimplement the way the kernel accesses NVRAM information. - Random cleanups - Add support for ATH25 platforms - Remove pointless locking code in some PCI platforms. - Some improvments to EVA support - Minor Alchemy cleanup" * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: (185 commits) MIPS: Add MFHC0 and MTHC0 instructions to uasm. MIPS: Cosmetic cleanups of page table headers. MIPS: Add CP0 macros for extended EntryLo registers MIPS: Remove now unused definition of phys_t. MIPS: Replace use of phys_t with phys_addr_t. MIPS: Replace MIPS-specific 64BIT_PHYS_ADDR with generic PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT PCMCIA: Alchemy Don't select 64BIT_PHYS_ADDR in Kconfig. MIPS: lib: memset: Clean up some MIPS{EL,EB} ifdefery MIPS: iomap: Use __mem_{read,write}{b,w,l} for MMIO MIPS: <asm/types.h> fix indentation. MAINTAINERS: Add entry for BMIPS multiplatform kernel MIPS: Enable VDSO randomization MIPS: Remove a temporary hack for debugging cache flushes in SMTC configuration MIPS: Remove declaration of obsolete arch_init_clk_ops() MIPS: atomic.h: Reformat to fit in 79 columns MIPS: Apply `.insn' to fixup labels throughout MIPS: Fix microMIPS LL/SC immediate offsets MIPS: Kconfig: Only allow 32-bit microMIPS builds MIPS: signal.c: Fix an invalid cast in ISA mode bit handling MIPS: mm: Only build one microassembler that is suitable ... |

Broadcom introduced new bus as replacement for older SSB. It is based on AMBA, however from programming point of view there is nothing AMBA specific we use. Standard AMBA drivers are platform specific, have hardcoded addresses and use AMBA standard fields like CID and PID. In case of Broadcom's cards every device consists of: 1) Broadcom specific AMBA device. It is put on AMBA bus, but can not be treated as standard AMBA device. Reading it's CID or PID can cause machine lockup. 2) AMBA standard devices called ports or wrappers. They have CIDs (AMBA_CID) and PIDs (0x103BB369), but we do not use that info for anything. One of that devices is used for managing Broadcom specific core. Addresses of AMBA devices are not hardcoded in driver and have to be read from EPROM. In this situation we decided to introduce separated bus. It can contain up to 16 devices identified by Broadcom specific fields: manufacturer, id, revision and class.
