2018-03-16arch: remove blackfin portArnd Bergmann3-131/+0
The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up. Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant, and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when doing cross-architecture changes.

We have the build infrastructure to generate uImages so we should ignore the resulting generated files. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <[email protected]> Acked-by: Mike Frysinger <[email protected]>

2012-03-26Kbuild: centralize MKIMAGE and cmd_uimage definitionsStephen Warren1-11/+8
All ARCHs have the same definition of MKIMAGE. Move it to Makefile.lib to avoid duplication. All ARCHs have similar definitions of cmd_uimage. Place a sufficiently parameterized version in Makefile.lib to avoid duplication.

2011-01-10Blackfin: encode cpu-rev into uImage nameMike Frysinger1-1/+1
Encoding the cpu family name apparently confuses people when they try to boot an image on a sub-variant, so encode the specific cpu name and the silicon rev instead. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <[email protected]>

2009-12-15Blackfin: add an uncompressed vmImage targetMike Frysinger1-1/+5
This is useful for quick tests where networks are faster than compression, and/or the compression code is broken. Reported-by: Magnus Damm <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <[email protected]>
2009-09-20kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel scriptSam Ravnborg1-3/+3
Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL to select a custom installkernel script when running make: make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install With this patch we are now more consistent across different architectures - they did not all support use of CROSS_COMPILE. The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change just because we change toolchain. The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no longer be installable. [Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint] This patch undos what Ian did in commit: 0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46 ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh") The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes looks obvious.

2009-06-22Blackfin: stick the CPU name into boot image nameRobin Getz1-1/+1
Rather than use "Linux" in the boot image name (as this is redundant -- the image type is already set to "linux"), use the CPU name. This makes it fairly obvious when a wrong image is accidentally booted. Otherwise there is no kernel output and you waste time scratching your head wondering wtf just happened.

2007-05-07blackfin architectureBryan Wu1-0/+27
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561 (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP, BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards. The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean, orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single instruction-set architecture. The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete documentation, including "getting started" guides available at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for bfin-linux-uclibc This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution, uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can be found at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel [[email protected]: balance parenthesis in blackfin header files] Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Mariusz Kozlowski <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Aubrey Li <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jie Zhang <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
