The (eventually) upcoming ath(4) changes will include being able to load
ath(4) devices on the AHB bus (ie the on-die wifi part of the SoC)
as modules.
In order for this to happen, a copy of the calibration data needs to be
copied away before the SPI driver runs or the memory map access hack
won't work.
Now, ideally (!) there'd be some driver that can come up after the MTD
pieces (eg, SPI, NAND, etc) and load into a firmware chunk the calibration
data.
(Or, really really nicely, would be an actual async firmware API that
would lead itself to having a driver schedule a file read - or a raw device
read - to get to the calibration data.)
Now, until all of the above is done - I'm going to perpetuate the layer
breaking atrocity here by simply doing the PCI bus fixup EEPROM/calibration
data hack here. This will work for any AR71xx (and later on, AR231x/AR531x)
device, as well as the handful of QCA MIPS + QCA9880v2 802.11ac boards with
NOR flash.
To use, this goes into the kernel config:
# Enable EEPROM hacks
options AR71XX_ATH_EEPROM
device ar71xx_caldata
device firmware
# This enables the ath_ahb driver (when I commit the change!) to
# pull data out of the firmware hack.
options ATH_EEPROM_FIRMWARE
In the hints file:
# ART calibration data mapping device
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.at="nexus0"
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.order=0
# Where the ART is - last 64k in the first 8MB of flash
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.map.0.ath_fixup_addr=0x1fff0000
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.map.0.ath_fixup_size=16384
# And now tell the ath(4) driver where to look!
hint.ath.0.eeprom_firmware="ar71xx_caldata.0.map.0.eeprom_firmware"
Tested:
* carambola2, AR933x SoC, using a set of ath and ath_hal modules to load
TODO:
* unify this bit of firmware loading code, as I will definitely need
to include both the PCI bus firmware version (for PCI ID fixups too!)
as well as AHB/on-chip calibration data.
* Commit the ath_ahb bus code
* Convert .. everything over. That'll take the majority of the time.
[ARM] Clear the constant pool cache on explicit .ltorg directives
Multiple ldr pseudoinstructions with the same constant value will
reuse the same constant pool entry. However, if the constant pool is
explicitly flushed with a .ltorg directive, we should not try to
reference constants in the previous pool any longer, since they may
be out of range.
This fixes assembling hand-written assembler source which repeatedly
loads the same constant value, across a binary size larger than the
pc-relative fixup range for ldr instructions (4096 bytes). Such
assembler source already uses explicit .ltorg instructions to emit
constant pools with regular intervals. However if we try to reuse
constants emitted in earlier pools, they end up out of range.
This makes the output of the testcase match what binutils gas does
(prior to this patch, it would fail to assemble).

ENA is a networking interface designed to make good use of modern CPU
features and system architectures.
The ENA device exposes a lightweight management interface with a
minimal set of memory mapped registers and extendable command set
through an Admin Queue.
The driver supports a range of ENA devices, is link-speed independent
(i.e., the same driver is used for 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, etc.), and has
a negotiated and extendable feature set.
Some ENA devices support SR-IOV. This driver is used for both the
SR-IOV Physical Function (PF) and Virtual Function (VF) devices.
ENA devices enable high speed and low overhead network traffic
processing by providing multiple Tx/Rx queue pairs (the maximum number
is advertised by the device via the Admin Queue), a dedicated MSI-X
interrupt vector per Tx/Rx queue pair, and CPU cacheline optimized
data placement.
The ENA driver supports industry standard TCP/IP offload features such
as checksum offload and TCP transmit segmentation offload (TSO).
Receive-side scaling (RSS) is supported for multi-core scaling.
The ENA driver and its corresponding devices implement health
monitoring mechanisms such as watchdog, enabling the device and driver
to recover in a manner transparent to the application, as well as
debug logs.
Some of the ENA devices support a working mode called Low-latency
Queue (LLQ), which saves several more microseconds. This feature will
be implemented for driver in future releases.

Previously open(2) was allowed in capability mode, with a comment that
suggested this was likely the case to facilitate debugging. The system
call would still fail later on, but it's better to disallow the syscall
altogether.
We now have the kern.trap_enotcap sysctl or PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL proccontrol
to aid in debugging.
In any case libc has translated open() to the openat syscall since
r277032.
