2013-02-15ARC: [plat-arcfpga]: Enabling DeviceTree for Angel4 boardVineet Gupta
* arc-uart platform device now populated dynamically, using of_platform_populate() - applies to any other device whatsoever. * uart in turn requires incore arc-intc to be also present in DT * A irq-domain needs to be instantiated for IRQ requests by DT probed device (e.g. arc-uart) TODO: switch over to linear irq domain once all devs have been transitioned to DT Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2013-02-15ARC: [DeviceTree] Convert some Kconfig items to runtime valuesVineet Gupta
* mem size now runtime configured (prev CONFIG_ARC_PLAT_SDRAM_SIZE) * core cpu clk runtime configured (prev CONFIG_ARC_PLAT_CLK) Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
2013-02-15ARC: [DeviceTree] Basic supportVineet Gupta
This is minimal infrastructure needed for devicetree work. It uses an a sample "skeleton" devicetree - embedded in kernel image - to print the board, manufacturer by parsing the top-level "compatible" string. As of now we don't need any additional "board" specific "machine_desc".

2013-02-11ARC: Build system: Makefiles, Kconfig, Linker scriptVineet Gupta
Arnd in his review pointed out that arch Kconfig organisation has several deficiencies: * Build time entries for things which can be runtime extracted from DT (e.g. SDRAM size, core clk frequency..) * Not multi-platform-image-build friendly (choice .. endchoice constructs) * cpu variants support (750/770) is exclusive. The first 2 have been fixed in subsequent patches. Due to the nature of the 750 and 770, it is not possible to build for both together, w/o special runtime glue code which would hurt performance.
