MIPS: MIPSsim: Remove the MIPSsim platform.

2012-09-25T14:04:54+00:00

The MIPSsim platform is no longer supported or used. [ralf@linux-mips.org: Also remove mipssim from arch/mips/Kbuild.platforms and delete arch/mips/include/asm/mach-mipssim/*.] Signed-off-by: Steven J.

kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT

2011-01-21T01:02:05+00:00

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.

MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command line

2009-12-17T01:57:35+00:00

Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware. Therefore, using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless. This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is currently used for x86. The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line arguments override the hardcoded ones. [Ralf: I fixed up all the defconfig files so the stay unaffected by this change.] Signed-off-by: Dmitri Vorobiev Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/689/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

MIPS: Get rid of CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LLSC

2009-09-17T18:07:50+00:00

CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LLSC duplicated the function of cpu_has_llsc for no good reason and and the results if the one was enabled and the other disabled was very unobvious. Remove it now that there are no more remaining users. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

[MIPS] Qemu: Remove platform.

2008-01-29T10:15:02+00:00

The Qemu platform was originally implemented to have an easily supportable platform until Qemu reaches a state where it emulates a real world system. Since the latest release Qemu is capable of emulating the MIPSsim and Malta platforms, so this goal has been reached. The Qemu plaform is also rather underfeatured so less useful than a Malta emulation. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle
