GitLab

Detail:
  Makefile - Added hdr.Variables to the C header export list
  hdr/ARMops, s/ARMops - Added ARM1176JZF-S to the list of known CPUs
  s/ARMops - Fix unaligned memory access in ARM_PrintProcessorType
  hdr/Copro15ops, s/ARMops, s/HAL, s/VMSAv6, s/AMBControl/memmap - Fixed all myDSB/myISB/etc. macro instances to specify a temp register, so that they work properly when building an ARMv6 version of the kernel
Admin:
  Fixes build errors with the latest Draw module.
  Should also allow the kernel to work properly with the new S3C6410 port.
  ARMv6 version builds OK, but no other builds or runtime tests have been made.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.38. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_38'

Detail:
  hdr/Options - ARM6support and GetKernelMEMC values are now derived from the value of MEMM_Type
  s/ARMops, s/HAL - Code to detect and handle ARMv7 CPUs is now only enabled when using VMSAv6 MMU model. Saves us from having to deal with lack of myIMB, myDSB, etc. implementations on pre-ARMv6.
  s/HAL - Removed some debug code
  s/NewReset - Fix bug spotted by Tom Walker where R12 wasn't being restored by LookForHALRTC if a non-HAL RTC had already been found
  s/AMBControl/memmap - correct the assert clause that was checking that &FFE are the correct L2PT protection bits for non-VMSAv6 machines
Admin:
  Tested this kernel on a rev C2 beagleboard & Iyonix softload. Also compiled it into an IOMD ROM, but didn't try running it.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.32. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_32'

Detail:
  s/ARMops - Fixed an instance of 'invalidate branch predictor entry' that should have been 'invalidate all branch predictors'
  s/ChangeDyn - Avoid cleaning the Nowhere page when reallocating memory, to avoid incurring the performance hit of the abort handler, and to avoid AMBControl screwing things up by mapping in pages that we're trying to modify
  s/VMSAv6 - Move MVA cache/TLB abort handler to before ChocolateAMB code, to ensure AMBControl doesn't try mapping in pages for harmless cache/TLB op aborts. Also tweaked code to be a little bit faster.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard. No more lockups when moving screen memory around, for now at least.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.30. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_30'

Detail:
  s/ARMops - previous version of MMU_ChangingEntries_WB_CR7_Lx would behave improperly if cleaning the last page of the address map by neglecting to flush any more than one TLB entry
Admin:
  Untested!


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.28. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_28'

Update Cortex kernel to use correct instruction/memory barriers and to perform branch target predictor maintenance. Plus tweak default CMOS settings.

Detail:
  hdr/Copro15ops - Added myISB, myDSB, myDMB macros to provide barrier functionality on ARMv6+
  s/ARMops, s/HAL, s/VMSAv6, s/AMBControl/memmap - Correct barrier operations are now performed on ARMv6+ following CP15 writes. Branch predictors are now also maintained properly.
  s/NewReset - Change default CMOS settings so number of CDFS drives is 0 in Cortex builds. Fixes rogue CDFS icon on iconbar.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.27. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_27'

Detail:
  s/ARMops - Fix IMB_Range_WB_CR7_Lx to clean the correct number of cache lines
  s/HAL - Change CP15 control register flags so unaligned loads are enabled on ARMv6 (to simplify support for ARMv7 where unaligned loads are always enabled, and to match the behaviour expected by the example code in Hdr:CPU.Arch)
  s/AMBControl/memmap - Make AMB_LazyFixUp use the correct L2PT protection flags depending on ARM600/VMSAv6 MMU model. Also guard against problems caused by future L2PT flag changes.
  s/vdu/vdugrafj - Fix previously undiscovered 32bit incompatability in GetSprite (OS_SpriteOp 14/16)
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.5. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_5'

Detail:
  s/ARMops - Fix set/way-based cache ops for cache type WB_CR7_Lx to iterate sets/ways/cache levels properly
  s/HAL - Fix HAL_InvalidateCache_ARMvF to iterate sets/ways/cache levels properly
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.4. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_4'

Detail:
  s/ARM600 - fix to SyncCodeAreasRange to correctly read cache line length for WB_CR7_Lx caches
  s/ARMops - Cortex cache handling fixes. Enable L2 cache for Cortex.
  s/ChangeDyn - VMSAv6 support in AllocateBackingLevel2
  s/HAL - Improve RISCOS_InitARM to set/clear correct CP15 flags for ARMv6/v7. VMSAv6 support in code to generate initial page tables.
  s/NewReset - Extra DebugTX calls during OS startup. Disable pre-HAL Processor_Type for HAL builds.
  s/VMSAv6 - Main VMSAv6 MMU code - stripped down version of s/ARM600 with support for basic VMSAv6 features.
  hdr/Options - Use VMSAv6 MMU code, not ARM600. Disable ARM6support since current VMSAv6 code will conflict with it.
Admin:
  Tested basic OS functionality under qemu-omap3 and revision B6 beagleboard.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.3. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_3'

Add support for Cortex cache type. Extend ARM_Analyse to, where appropriate, use CPU feature registers to identify CPU capabilities.

Detail:
  s/ARMops - Support for Cortex multi-level cache (CT_ctype_WB_CR7_Lx). New ARM_Analyse_Fancy to identify CPU capabilities using feature registers.
  s/HAL - Modify pre-ARMop cache code to handle Cortex-syle caches.
  s/MemInfo - Replace ARM_flush_TLB macro call with appropriate ARMop to provide Cortex compatability
  hdr/ARMops - Update list of ARM architectures
  hdr/CoPro15ops - Deprecate ARM_flush_* macros for HAL kernels, as they are no longer capable of flushing all cache types. ARMops should be used instead.
  hdr/KernelWS - Add storage space for multi-level cache properties required for new cache cleaning code.
Admin:
  Tested under qemu-omap3. Still unable to verify on real hardware due to lack of appropriate MMU code. However new OMAP3 HAL code that uses similar cache management functions appears to work fine on real hardware.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.2. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_2'

Detail:
  hdr/ARMops - Added Cortex_A8 processor type, new ARM architecture number
  hdr/Options - Enabled various kernel debug options
  s/ARMops - Added Cortex-A8/OMAP3530 to known CPUs list. Ignore cache type register for ARM architecture &F.
  s/NewIRQs - Increase MaxInterrupts to 96
Admin:
  Brief testing under qemu-omap3.



Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.1. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_1'

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.48. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_48'

IOMD HAL:
  enables fast clock for StrongARM on Medusa h/w

Kernel:
  ARMops for StrongARM implemented. Tested moderately on
  HAL/32-bit minimal desktop build for Risc PC. Could do
  with more testing later. eg. does reentrant cache
  cleaning support really work?
  Lazy task swapping is enabled for revT or later, wahey.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.42. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_42'

* Kernel puts sensible default FIQ handler in through the HAL.
* Fix to temporary page uncaching code.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.27. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_27'

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.26. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_26'

First attempt at ARM9 support, and general clean-up of old ARM-specific code, now using vectored ARMops.

Not tested.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.14. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_14'

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.12. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_12'

more use of ARMops in page manipulation, change register usage of ARmops tested by kernel boot to star prompt only

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.11. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_11'

More stuff. Up to the desktop now; cache on, working keyboard. Some source restructuring to start to make splitting it up into several object files more feasible.
