The set_dataplane() API in <sys/dataplane.h> originally supported the
Tilera version of Linux as shipped to our customers. Once we started
upstreaming the dataplane support in the kernel, the API changed
to use fcntl() as part of the current task-isolation patch series.
It doesn't seem like continuing to support the old API is useful
for newly-compiled code, and even supporting the old glibc binary
API on an upstream kernel that supports the new task isolation mode
isn't straightforward, since the semantics have changed in ways that
make it hard to map the old semantics precisely to the new ones,
so just return ENOSYS.
I've moved the TILE-Gx and TILEPro ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy,
along with the linux-generic ports infrastructure. Beyond the README
update, the move was just
git mv ports/sysdeps/tile sysdeps/tile
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile \
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic \
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic
I updated the relevant ChangeLogs along the lines of the ARM move
in commit c6bfe5c4d7 and tested the 64-bit tilegx build to confirm that
there were no changes in "objdump -dr" output in the shared objects.
