match the device. Pinctrl will need to be added before this will work,
in addition to migrating the current board_foo.c method of configuring
these pins to something else. Non-FDT systems won't be affected, yet.
we've been using was actually just spinning due to ARM having redefined
the old 'wait for interrupt' operation via the system coprocessor as a nop
and replacing it with a WFI instruction.
code can supply a better implementation. A SoC with variable CPU frequency
is likely to use a fixed-frequency timer for DELAY() (but still use the
mpcore private timers as eventtimers).
Also remove spaces from the eventtimer and timecounter names.
Lower FNEG just like FABS to fneg[ds] and fmov[ds], thus avoiding
expensive libcall. Also, Qp_neg is not implemented on at least
FreeBSD. This is also what gcc is doing.
Give sparcv9 the ability to set the target cpu. Change it from
accepting -march which doesnt exist on sparc gcc to -mcpu. While here
adjust a few tests to not write an unused temporary file.
implementation in arm/machdep.c. Most arm platforms either don't need to
do anything, or just need to call the standard eventtimer init routines.
A generic implementation that does that is now provided via weak linkage.
Any platform that needs to do something different can provide a its own
implementation to override the generic one.
- Don't use spaces or dots in the eventtimer or timecounter names.
They turn into sysctl node names, and it's just confusing.
- Use comparator #3 instead of #1 for one-shot events. There's an
extra 1-cycle penalty in the hardware for accessing the registers
for comparator 1, no point in paying that penalty.
- Lower the quality of the eventtimer from 1000 to 800, because the
device can't support PERCPU timers and some other device in the system
may be able to provide that.
