This is breaking core detection on my MT7621 based platforms.
I only get 2 cores detected now running 5.13. Reverting this change gives
me 4 cores back.

 From a fully working (pre-change) system I get:

I also have a 4 core mt7621 based board and this patch change does not
have problems for me. Let me know if you need me to check something
from my board.

I noticed that on boot the following message appears and might be
related with the way used here to make the core number detection:

[    0.000000] VPE topology {2,2} total 4

Is this the same for your board?

When booting with this patch applied I get:

     VPE topology {2} total 2

with patch reverted I get:

     VPE topology {2,2} total 4

Hi Greg,

I had trouble with this as well.  This line from the patch:

> if (!(launch->flags & LAUNCH_FREADY))

is checking ram which I believe is supposed to be set by the bootloader.
On my platform it looked like the preloaded uboot wasn't setting that as
expected.
If you have control over your bootloader you can force this ram address
to be what the kernel wants, or you can do what i did, because i didn't
have that targets uboot src, and wedge before the kernel starts to force
the ram to the required state, like so:

#define CORE0_INITIAL_CPU_STATE (0xf00)
#define CORE_FL_OFFSET (0x1C)
#define FLAG_LAUNCH_FREADY (1)

#define WRITEREG(r, v) *(volatile uint32_t *)(r) = v
#define KSEG1ADDR(_x) (((_x)&0x1fffffff) | 0xa0000000)

void set_core(uint32_t core)
{
    uint32_t start = CORE0_INITIAL_CPU_STATE + (0x40 * core);
    WRITEREG(KSEG1ADDR(start + CORE_FL_OFFSET), FLAG_LAUNCH_FREADY);
}

void fix_cores(void) {
    // Fixes the flags for each core, just before running the kernel.
    // Means we don't have to patch the kernel check for valid CPU's.
    for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
        set_core(i);
    }
}

It seems that memory section is supposed to set all the cores registers
before the kernel runs, but i never found it did anything except that 1
flag.

Obviously a better way would be to properly detect the number of cores
and not rely on the boot loader to set a flag in ram, I don't know if
that's even possible.

Well, my solution was to revert that patch locally :-)

But many people will not have control of or the desire to change
their u-boot loader. I would have figured this ends up being a
real regression for many (most?) users of this SoC.

Not a strong opinion - I think we need a better fix that would work on
the platform I tested with as well as Greg's. I'm okay with reverting
it while trying to come up with said fix. Downstream projects, such as
OpenWrt can keep this patch or apply it only when building for MT7621S
targets until the detection logic is made more robust.

Greg - if and when a proper fix is made, a test against your platform
would help so we don't regress again in the future.

Yep, no problem. Please CC me on any prospective patch and I can test.

I guess this would become a new mt7621s.dts that only include the
other original mt7621.dtsi and just overlay cpus. But I think we can
check the register related with chip name and so on [0] and see if
something is different in order to set 'soc' related code and
attributes to checkable values. Check [1] and [2]. Ilya, maybe you can
check whaever value is in there to see if the "S" stuff is different
with other normal mt7621 chips?

Best regards,
     Sergio Paracuellos

Most MT7621 SoCs have 2 cores, which is detected and supported properly
by CPS.

Unfortunately, MT7621 SoC has a less common S variant with only one core.
On MT7621S, GCR_CONFIG still reports 2 cores, which leads to hangs when
starting SMP. CPULAUNCH registers can be used in that case to detect the
absence of the second core and override the GCR_CONFIG PCORES field.

Rework a long-standing OpenWrt patch to override the value of
mips_cps_numcores on single-core MT7621 systems.

Tested on a dual-core MT7621 device (Ubiquiti ER-X) and a single-core
MT7621 device (Netgear R6220).
