* cs5535-clockevt: typo, it's MFGPT, not MFPGTJens Rottmann2012-08-211-2/+2

* cs5535-clockevt: Allow the MFGPT IRQ to be sharedJens Rottmann2012-03-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Shared timer IRQs are not a good solution, however the Geode platform has no APIC, IRQs are a scarce resource and there is no technical reason to forbid it rightaway. Increased latencies and overhead due to sharing are still better than a driver refusing to load.

* cs5535-clockevt: Don't ignore MFGPT on SMP-capable kernelsJens Rottmann2012-03-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On SMP-capable kernels (e.g. generic distro kernel) the cs5535-clockevt driver loads but is not actually used. Setting cpumask to cpu_all_mask works for UP-only kernels, but if compiled for SMP - though still running on the same UP hardware - kernel/time/tick-common.c:tick_check_new_device() reads this as "non-cpu-local" and silently ignores the device. If we leave cpumask unset clockevents_register_device() will initialize it and the cs5535-clockevt driver will be used no matter how the kernel was compiled. Should anyone ever manage to stick a CS553x in an SMP system (is this even possible?) then a warning will be printed. This is fine as the cs5535-clockevt driver was never written/tested for SMP. If bisecting led you here this patch may have exposed a pre-existing MFGPT problem. Configure for UP-only and re-check.

* cs5535-clockevt: Free timer in IRQ setup error pathJens Rottmann2010-03-121-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to a hardware limitation cs5535_mfgpt_free_timer() cannot actually release the timer hardware, but it will at least free the now unreferenced struct associated with it so calling it is the cleaner thing to do.

* geode-mfgpt: restore previous behavior for selecting IRQJens Rottmann2010-02-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | geode-mfgpt: restore previous behavior for selecting IRQ The MFGPT IRQ used to be, in order of decreasing priority, * IRQ supplied by the user as a boot-time parameter, * IRQ previously set by the BIOS or another driver, * default IRQ given at compile time. Return to this behavior, which got broken when splitting the MFGPT/clocksource driver for 2.6.33-rc1.

* cs5535: add a generic clock event MFGPT driverAndres Salomon2009-12-151-0/+197
This is based on the old code in arch/x86/kernel/mfgpt_32.c, but is modular and not Geode-specific. There's no reason why the clock event device needs to be registered so early at boot; the clockevent code is perfectly capable of dynamic switching.
