b7fb9e6a48 metag: cachepart: fix get_global_dcache_size() typo
Compilation is broken when the kernel is destined to live in the global
part of the virtual address space:

arch/metag/kernel/cachepart.c In function 'get_thread_cache_size':
arch/metag/kernel/cachepart.c +71 : error: implicit declaration of function 'get_global_dache_size'

Fix the typo.

4d8edbfefb metag: cachepart: take into account small cache bits
The CORE_CONFIG2 register has bits to indicate that the data or code
cache is small, i.e. that the size described in the field should be
divided by 64. Take this into account in get_icache_size() and
get_dcache_size().

9e71296303 metag: smp: copy cache partition and enable GCOn
When starting an SMP hardware thread, copy the cache partition
configuration so that the threads share the same cache partitions. Also
enable the GCOn bit if running in the local half of the virtual address
space to enable coherency of shared local cache partitions. An atomic
unlock system event is executed by the new cpu before any memory is read
to ensure that any writes made by the boot cpu prior to full coherency
taking effect are visible to the new cpu.

This is to allow SMP to work even when the bootloader hasn't configured
the caches for coherency. A log message is printed to describe the cache
partition changes so that the user is aware of potential unintentional
cache wastage if they've configured the cache partitions in the wrong
way.

f27086f5dc metag: perf: prepare for use by oprofile
To allow our perf_events code to work with oprofile the PERF_TYPE_RAW
event type attribute is implemented, which allows the internal encoding
of events to be used externally (this requires some tweaks so that it
handles invalid event types more gracefully), and perf_pmu_name() is
adjusted to return metag_pmu->name instead of metag_pmu->pmu.name (which
is changed to "meta2").

1fb4dc5c39 metag: perf: don't reset TXTACTCYC
The thread active cycle counter TXTACTCYC is used in __delay so it
shouldn't really be reset to zero by perf. Fix perf to just read the
value, and instead of clearing it, record the prev_count value in
enable_counter so that the delta calculations know about the previous
value.

2033dc54e6 metag: perf: fix frequency sampling (dynamic period)
Frequency sampling mode dynamically adjusts the sample period so as to
hit a particular frequency of samples. The sample period starts at just
1 and then gets increased if the interrupt rate is too high. This
changed sample period needs handling in metag_pmu_event_set_period to
update period_left (as the ARM equivalent does). The calculated delta
also needs subtracting from period_left in metag_pmu_event_update in
order to hit the conditional blocks in metag_pmu_event_set_period which
update last_period (which is used in the dynamic sampling period
calculation).

c6ac1e6eda metag: perf: add missing prev_count updates
The prev_count needs setting when changing the counter value, otherwise
the calculated delta will be wrong, which for frequency sampling
(dynamic period sampling) results in sampling at too high a frequency.

For non-interrupting performance counters it should also be cleared when
enabling the counter since the write to the PERF_COUNT register will
clear the perf counter.

This also includes a minor change to remove the u64 cast from the
metag_pmu->write() call as metag_pmu->write() takes a u32 anyway, and in
any case GCC is smart enough to optimise away the cast.

2270e6d30b metag: copy devicetree to non-init memory
Make a copy of the device tree blob in non-init memory. It is required
when using built-in device tree files that the platform code copies the
blob to non-init memory prior to calling unflatten_device_tree(),
otherwise the strings that the device tree refer to will get poisoned
and potentially reused, breaking later reading of the device tree
post-init (such as compatible matching in modules, debugfs, and the
procfs interface).

fa771d029a metag: move irq enable out of irqflags.h on SMP
The SMP version of arch_local_irq_enable() uses preempt_disable(), but
<asm/irqflags.h> doesn't include <linux/preempt.h> causing the following
errors on SMP when pstore/ftrace is enabled (caught by buildbot smp
allyesconfig):

In file included from include/linux/irqflags.h:15,
                 from fs/pstore/ftrace.c:16:
arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h: In function 'arch_local_irq_enable':
arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h:84: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_disable'
arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h:86: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_enable_no_resched'

However <linux/preempt.h> cannot be easily included from
<asm/irqflags.h> as it can cause circular include dependencies in the
!SMP case, and potentially in the SMP case in the future. Therefore move
the SMP implementation of arch_local_irq_enable() into traps.c and use
an inline version of get_trigger_mask() which is also defined in traps.c
for SMP.

This adds an extra layer of function call / stack push when
preempt_disable needs to call other functions, however in the
non-preemptive SMP case it should be about as fast, as it was already
calling the get_trigger_mask() function which is now used inline.

bc3966bf15 metag: ptrace
The ptrace interface for metag provides access to some core register
sets using the PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET operations. The
details of the internal context structures is abstracted into user API
structures to both ease use and allow flexibility to change the internal
context layouts. Copyin and copyout functions for these register sets
are exposed to allow signal handling code to use them to copy to and
from the signal context.

struct user_gp_regs (NT_PRSTATUS) provides access to the core general
purpose register context.

struct user_cb_regs (NT_METAG_CBUF) provides access to the TXCATCH*
registers which contains information abuot a memory fault, unaligned
access error or watchpoint. This can be modified to alter the way the
fault is replayed on resume ("catch replay"), or to prevent the replay
taking place.

struct user_rp_state (NT_METAG_RPIPE) provides access to the state of
the Meta read pipeline which can be used to hide memory latencies in
hand optimised data loops.

Extended DSP register state, DSP RAM, and hardware breakpoint registers
aren't yet exposed through ptrace.

85d9d7a920 metag: Boot
Add boot code for metag. Due to the multi-threaded nature of Meta it is
not uncommon for an RTOS or bare metal application to be started on
other hardware threads by the bootloader. Since there is a single MMU
switch which affects all threads, the MMU is traditionally configured by
the bootloader prior to starting Linux. The bootloader passes a
structure to Linux which among other things contains information about
memory regions which have been mapped. Linux then assumes control of the
local heap memory region.

A kernel arguments string pointer or a flattened device tree pointer can
be provided in the third argument.
