This patch series updates the kernel support for the Microwatt soft-core and its implementation on FPGA systems, particularly the Digilent Arty A7-100 FPGA development board.
Microwatt now supports almost all of the features of the SFFS (Scalar Fixed-poin and Floating-point Subset) compliancy subset of Power ISA version 3.1C, including prefixed instructions and the fixed-point hash (ROP mitigation) instructions. It is also now SMP-capable, and a dual-core system will fit on the Arty A7-100 board. Microwatt does not have broadcast TLB invalidations in SMP systems; the kernel already has code to deal with this. One of the patches in this series provides a config option to allow platforms to select unconditionally the behaviour where cross-CPU TLB invalidations are handled using inter-processor interrupts.
