This commit add new configuration that enables us to distinguish between building the kernel for platforms that have a different set of auxiliary registers for each cpu and platforms that have a shared set of auxiliary registers across every thread in each core. On platforms that implement a different set of auxiliary registers disabling this configuration insures that we initialize registers on every cpu and not just for the first thread of the core. Example for non shared registers is working with EZsim (non silicon) Signed-off-by: Liav Rehana <liavr@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Noam Camus <noamca@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Support for EZchip development platforms,
|
|
based on ARC700 cores.
|
|
We handle few flavors:
|
|
- Hardware Emulator AKA HE which is FPGA based chassis
|
|
- Simulator based on MetaWare nSIM
|
|
- NPS400 chip based on ASIC

Here we add new hierarchy for CPUs topology.
|
|
We got:
|
|
Core
|
|
Thread
|
|
At the new thread level each CPU represent one HW thread.
|
|
At highest hierarchy each core contain 16 threads,
|
|
any of them seem like CPU from Linux point of view.
|
|
All threads within same core share the execution unit of the
|
|
core and HW scheduler round robin between them.

On the real chip of the NPS, user memory errors are handled
|
|
as a machine check exception, which is fatal, whereas on
|
|
simulator platform for NPS, is handled as a Level 2 interrupt
|
|
(just a stock ARC700) which is recoverable. This option makes
|
|
simulator behave like hardware.

help
|
|
On the real chip of the NPS, auxiliary registers are shared between
|
|
all the cpus of the core, whereas on simulator platform for NPS,
|
|
each cpu has a different set of auxiliary registers. Configuration
|
|
should be unset if auxiliary registers are not shared between the cpus
|
|
of the core, so there will be a need to initialize them per cpu.
