We want to add the Cavium OCTEON-III network driver. But since
interacting with the input and output queues is done via special CPU
local memory, we also need to add support to the MIPS/Octeon
architecture code. Aren't SoCs nice in this way? These are the
prerequisite patches that are needed before the network driver can be
merged.
Changes in v9:
o Rebased to 'net-next'
o Revert code removal in kernel-entry-init.h
o Move CAVIUM_OCTEON_SCRATCH_OFFSET into tlbex.c
Changes in v8:
o Rebased to v4.16-rc2
Changes in v7:
o Splitting of the patch set only. These 4 mips patches are unchanged
from the previous posting.
Changes in v6:
o Added back cleanup patch for previous generation SoC "staging"
driver, as Greg K-H acked it.
o Moved FPA driver to drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/octeon as it is
currently only used by the octeon3-ethernet driver.
o Many code formatting fixes as noted by davem.
Changes in v5:
o Removed cleanup patch for previous generation SoC "staging" driver,
as it will be sent as a follow-on.
o Fixed kernel doc formatting in all patches.
o Removed redundant licensing text boilerplate.
o Reviewed-by: header added to 2/7.
o Rewrote locking code in 3/7 to eliminate inline asm.
Changes in v4:
o Use phy_print_status() instead of open coding the equivalent.
o Print warning on phy mode mismatch.
o Improve dt-bindings and add Acked-by.
Changes in v3:
o Fix PKI (RX path) initialization to work with little endian kernel.
Changes in v2:
o Cleanup and use of standard bindings in the device tree bindings
document.
o Added (hopefully) clarifying comments about several OCTEON
architectural peculiarities.
o Removed unused testing code from the driver.
o Removed some module parameters that already default to the proper
values.
o KConfig cleanup, including testing on x86_64, arm64 and mips.
o Fixed breakage to the driver for previous generation of OCTEON SoCs
(in the staging directory still).
o Verified bisectability of the patch set.

LMTDMA/LMTST operations move data between cores and I/O devices:
* LMTST operations can send an address and a variable length
(up to 128 bytes) of data to an I/O device.
* LMTDMA operations can send an address and a variable length
(up to 128) of data to the I/O device and then return a
variable length (up to 128 bytes) response from the I/O device.
For both LMTST and LMTDMA, the data sent to the device is first stored
in the CVMSEG core local memory cache line indexed by
CVMMEMCTL[LMTLINE], the data is then atomically transmitted to the
device with a store to the CVMSEG LMTDMA trigger location.

Remove CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_CVMSEG_SIZE and automatically calculate
the amount of CVMSEG space needed.
1st 128-bytes: Use by IOBDMA
2nd 128-bytes: Reserved by kernel for scratch/TLS emulation.
3rd 128-bytes: OCTEON-III LMTLINE
New config variable CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_EXTRA_CVMSEG provisions
additional lines, defaults to zero.

Add a global resource manager to manage tagged pointers within
bootmem allocated memory. This is used by various functional
blocks in the Octeon core like the FPA, Ethernet nexus, etc.

I don't know if we really want all of these MIPS specific changes to
go via the net-next tree.
The right way to do this is probably getting this series into the MIPS
architecture tree.
Then when that hits Linus's tree, and finally ends up merging into
the networking tree, you can submit the networking driver.

David,
Correct, and I should have been clearer about that. The MIPS-specific
changes are targeted for 4.18 and I will be working with James/Ralf
to get those in. The actual changes for adding the driver, however,
should be fine to go into net-next. The netdev list should have been
a CC: for those patches and the Linux/MIPS mailing list as the main
recipient. Mea culpa.
