emdk->emsdp: Rename board

2018-11-01T20:04:05+00:00

Real marketing name of the board was recently updated so
to accommodate that change renaming the board and all
related to it.

ARC: Don't use COMMON section for global not-initialized variables

2018-10-15T10:35:17+00:00

By default GCC puts global non-initialized variables in COMMON section.
And we used to ignore existence of COMMON section in our linker
scripts though smart LD silently appended it right after .bss.

And the problem here is variables from COMMON section even though
require zeroing in run-time were not zeroed as they were placed
right after __bss_end symbol.

It was a pure luck we never faced serious problem due to this,
but now it is fixed.

Now as for some other architectures we'll just force GCC to put
those global variables in normal .bss section.

This solution is much nicer than adding COMMON section to each and
every linker script.

ARC: make generic print_cpuinfo() weak

2018-10-12T12:14:40+00:00

This allows board to override print_cpuinfo() because
they might know better which ARChitect template was used.
This way we may not only derive base architecture type and
version but more meaningful things like "ARC EM7D" instead of
simple "ARC EM", "ARC HS36" instead of "ARC HS".

arc: Add support for IoT development kit

2018-10-05T13:57:00+00:00

The DesignWare ARC IoT Development Kit is a versatile platform
that includes the necessary hardware and software to accelerate
software development and debugging of sensor fusion,
voice recognition and face detection designs.

More information is avaialble here [1] and here [2].

The board is based on real silicon with
ARC EM9D-based Data Fusion IP Subsystem.

It sports a rich set of I/O including
 * DW USB OTG
 * DW MobileStorage (used for micro SD-card)
 * GPIO
 * multiple serial interface including DW APB UART
 * ADC, PWM and eFlash, SRAM and SPI Flash memory
 * Real-Time Clock (RTC)
 * Bluetooth module with worldwide regulatory compliance
   (FCC, IC, CE, ETSI, TELEC)
 * On-board 9-axis sensor (gyro, accelerometer and compass)

Extensible with Arduino, Pmod, mikroBUS connectors and a 2x18
extension header.

One of the most interesting features for developers is built-in
Digilent USB JTAG probe so only micro-USB cable is needed!

ARC: Implement print_cpuinfo()

2018-10-05T13:55:42+00:00

Once we enable DISPLAY_CPUINFO for ARC we'll see
ARC core family and version printed on boot.

ARC: Add model property to boards .dts

2018-10-05T13:55:42+00:00

1. This way we sync with Linux kernel where we have model
   set for all ARC boards for quite some time, see [1]

2. Once we enable DISPLAY_BOARDINFO for ARC this info will
   be printed on boot givin some extra data-point about the board

ARC: Don't pre-define CROSS_COMPILE

2018-10-05T13:55:42+00:00

Even though arc-linux- prefix is used in ARC prebuilt tools and
in Buildroot there're other options like Linux distro cross-tools
etc where prefix is different so let's not rely on this default.

arch: types.h: factor out fixed width typedefs to int-ll64.h

2018-09-11T00:48:16+00:00

All architectures have the same definition for s8/16/32/64
and u8/16/32/64.

Factor out the duplicated code into .

BTW, Linux unified the kernel space definition into int-ll64.h
a few years ago as you see in Linux commit 0c79a8e29b5f
("asm/types.h: Remove include/asm-generic/int-l64.h").

ARC: HSDK: Fix timer frequency value

2018-09-05T15:11:45+00:00

CPU (and hence cpu timers) on HSDK board runs at 500MHz after
preloader so fix wrong CPU frequency value in hsdk.dts

ARC: Enable unaligned access in hardware if compiler uses it

2018-07-31T04:49:47+00:00

Even if ARC core might handle unaligned access to data this
hardware feature by default is disabled.

But GCC starting from 8.1.0 unconditionally uses it for ARC HS cores.
Which leads to quite strange and fatal run-time failures like the one
below if HW is not configured properly:
| hsdk# sf probe
| Misaligned data access exception @ 0xbff794d4
| ECR:    0x000d0000

| Resetting CPU ...

Now we're checking for __ARC_UNALIGNED__ define emitted by the
compiler if it's going to use unaligned access and then we
force-enable it in hardware too.
