Hi all,

This is a attempt to bring all low-level debugging print functions
together and provide a arm-like low-level debugging interface and
a further function to debug early exceptions.

The plan is to elimiate platform specific early_printk and
cps-vec-ns16550 by debug_ll and earlycon.

cps-vec-ns16550 is leave unchanged for now due to pending patch[1].

Hope you'll find them handy :-)

Happy hacking!

Thanks
Jiaxun

Currently we have three sets of early debugging functions
for MIPS: zboot putc/puts, cps-vec-ns16550, and prom_putc.

This is a attempt to bring them all to one by providing
a interface similar to arm's debug_ll, which is very portable
and allows you to support new platforms easily.

Two examples of output interfaces are provided, including
8250 uart and MIPS UHI semihosting, which already covered
most of the platforms.

Output earlyprintk to low-level debug functions when it's
available.

DEBUG_LL takes priority over platform earlyprintk because
people must know what are they doing when they are trying
to enable DEBUG_LL.

This is helpful for debugging of early boot crash when exceptions
happens before trap_init(), or for debugging SMP bringup code.

It will install exception handler very early on kernel_entry by
setting ebase or copy itself to start of CKSEG0, and print off
exception vectors and other status registers like:

Low level exception: ffffffff8011e180

GlobalNumber: 0x00000000
EBase:    0xffffffff8011e000
Xcontext: 0x0000000000000000
Cause:    0x0000000c
Status:   0x14000082
EPC:      0xffffffff80d324e0
BadVAddr: 0x0000000000000000
BadInstr: 0xac000000

Alchemy uart is a 8250 derivative that requires some special care
on barriers and readys, also they have a wired register layout.

Implement it as a special include.

Since now debug_ll facilities can cover all platforms supported
by zboot debug print, and it provides extra capability on debugging
exceptions, switch zboot to use those facilities.

sorry I don't think that just another new function is good approach.
Doing this will end up with another method for early debugging and
all other will stay.

All others will go (one of two already gone).

The thing is, I tried to get cps-vec-16550 and zboot work with UHI
semihosting, and soon find out that they are doing exactly the same
thing. So I tried to unify them.

I miss the good old day on Arm system that I can use handy debug_ll
functions for every low level debugging purpose, thus I just copied the
whole design.

There won't be any new debugging functions, zboot one already merged
into debug_ll in this series, cps-vec-ns16550 will be merged as well,
I've got patches prepared locally but depending on my XKPHYS changes.

We have extra functionality to debug early exception as well, that will
certainly make bring-up process easier.

Thanks.

To summarize how are we going to handle low-level debugging after this series:
1. You are lucky enough that the problem happens after console system initialized
   and you have stack working: go earlycon, or on very few old platforms with platform
   early_printk
2. You are debugging zboot: debug_ll
3. You are debugging SMP bootstrap code like cps-vec: debug_ll
4. Your kernel crashed at the middle of no where before trap_init: debug_ll

Thanks
