From Yasha Cherikovsky <> Subject [RFC v2 0/7] MIPS: Lexra LX5280 CPU + Realtek RTL8186 SoC support Date Mon, 1 Oct 2018 13:29:45 +0300 Hi,



Changelog:



v2:

- Patch 5 in v1 added irqchip, timer and arch code for the SoC all in one patch.

Split this patch into 3 patches:

- Patch 3 for irqchip (depends on MACH_RTL8186 in Kconfig)

- Patch 5 for timer (depends on MACH_RTL8186 in Kconfig)

- Patch 7 for SoC code in arch/mips (adds MACH_RTL8186 in mips and selects irqchip+timer drivers)

Also, reorder the patches in a way that each DT binding patch comes before

the respective driver patch.



- No code changes from v1



------



This RFC patch series adds all the necessary code

to successfully boot Linux on the Realtek RTL8186 SoC.



Boot log with the v1 series applied (+one DT patch that adds partitions) is available here:

https://gist.github.com/yashac3/483decfa8db014edfb055ba5a1f9996e



Network drivers and other misc drivers are not included

in this patch set, but are being worked on.





This patch series includes:

- Patch 1: Lexra LX5280 CPU support (MIPS)



- Patch 2: Device tree bindings for the RTL8186 interrupt controller

- Patch 3: RTL8186 interrupt controller driver



- Patch 4: Device tree bindings for the RTL8186 timer

- Patch 5: RTL8186 timer driver



- Patch 6: Device tree bindings for Realtek MIPS SoCs

- Patch 7: RTL8186 SoC support (MIPS, device tree)





What's still missing:

1) Upstream toolchain support for the Lexra LX5280 CPU.

(Still WIP) GCC and binutils patches are available at [1][2].

Buildroot with these patches applied is available at [3].



The toolchain work is still WIP and I'm planning to send it

for review when it will be ready.



Still, feel free to comment on this work too.



2) Reading the TLB size from device tree:

(The reason there's no DT bindings for the LX5280 in this series)



As there's no way to get the TLB size from the hardware,

is must be passed in the DT.



Currently in arch/mips, the FDT is not available in the cpu_probe()

stage, where the 'tlbsize' field of the cpu data is set.



Any ideas/suggestions on how to solve that?





This patch series is on top of v4.18 + 5 prerequisite patches that

are in mips-next for 4.20. [4][5].



This patch series is also available at:

https://github.com/yashac3/linux-rtl8186/commits/rtl8186-porting-for-upstream-4.18-v2





Please review.



Thanks,

Yasha
