These patches remove the metag architecture and tightly dependent
drivers from the kernel. With the 4.16 kernel the ancient gcc 4.2.4
based metag toolchain we have been using is hitting compiler bugs, so
now seems a good time to drop it altogether.

Quoting from patch 1:

The earliest Meta architecture port of Linux I have a record of was an
import of a Meta port of Linux v2.4.1 in February 2004, which was worked
on significantly over the next few years by Graham Whaley, Will Newton,
Matt Fleming, myself and others.

Eventually the port was merged into mainline in v3.9 in March 2013, not
long after Imagination Technologies bought MIPS Technologies and shifted
its CPU focus over to the MIPS architecture.

As a result, though the port was maintained for a while, kept on life
support for a while longer, and useful for testing a few specific
drivers for which I don't have ready access to the equivalent MIPS
hardware, it is now essentially dead with no users.

It is also stuck using an out-of-tree toolchain based on GCC 4.2.4 which
is no longer maintained, now struggles to build modern kernels due to
toolchain bugs, and doesn't itself build with a modern GCC. The latest
buildroot port is still using an old uClibc snapshot which is no longer
served, and the latest uClibc doesn't build with GCC 4.2.4.

So lets call it a day and drop the Meta architecture port from the
kernel. RIP Meta.

Now that arch/metag/ has been removed, remove the METAG dependency from
the IMG IR device driver. The hardware is also present on MIPS SoCs so
the driver still has value.

Since I brought up the architecture removal independently, I could
pick this up into a git tree that also has the removal of some of the
other architectures.

I see your tree is part of linux-next, so you could also just put it
in there and send a pull request at the merge window if you prefer.

The only real reason I see for a shared git tree would be to avoid
conflicts when we touch the same Kconfig files or #ifdefs in driver,
but Meta only appears in

config FRAME_POINTER
        bool "Compile the kernel with frame pointers"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && \
                (CRIS || M68K || FRV || UML || \
                 SUPERH || BLACKFIN || MN10300 || METAG) || \
                ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS

and

include/trace/events/mmflags.h:#elif defined(CONFIG_PARISC) ||
defined(CONFIG_METAG) || defined(CONFIG_IA64)

so there is little risk.

I'm happy to put v2 in linux-next now (only patch 4 has changed, I just
sent an updated version), and send you a pull request early next week so
you can take it from there. The patches can't be directly applied with
git-am anyway thanks to the -D option to make them more concise.

Sound okay?

Thanks
James

As discussed, here is a tagged branch to remove arch/metag and dependent
drivers. Its basically v2 with some acks added.

Cheers

  i2c: img-scb: Drop METAG dependency (2018-02-26 14:58:09 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Remove metag architecture

These patches remove the metag architecture and tightly dependent
drivers from the kernel. With the 4.16 kernel the ancient gcc 4.2.4
based metag toolchain we have been using is hitting compiler bugs, so
now seems a good time to drop it altogether.

I've pulled it into my asm-generic tree now, which is also part of linux-next,
and followed up with patches removing frv, m32r, score, unicore32
and blackfin. I have not removed the device drivers yet, but I'm working
on that.
