ARM: 7743/1: compressed/head.S: work around new binutils warning

2013-06-13T17:49:25+00:00

commit da94a829305f1c217cfdf6771cb1faca0917e3b9 upstream.

In August 2012, Matthew Gretton-Dann checked a change into binutils
labelled "Error on obsolete & warn on deprecated registers", apparently as
part of ARMv8 support. Apparently, this was supposed to emit the message
"Warning: This coprocessor register access is deprecated in ARMv8" when
using certain mcr/mrc instructions and building for ARMv8. Unfortunately,
the message that is actually emitted appears to be '(null)', which is
less helpful in comparison.

Even more unfortunately, this is biting us on every single kernel
build with a new gas, because arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S and some
other files in that directory are built with -march=all since kernel
commit 80cec14a8 "[ARM] Add -march=all to assembly file build in
arch/arm/boot/compressed" back in v2.6.28.

This patch reverts Russell's nice solution and instead marks the head.S
file to be built for armv7-a, which fortunately lets us build all
instructions in that file without warnings even on the broken binutils.

Without this patch, building anything results in:

arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:565: Warning: (null)

ARM: 7666/1: decompressor: add -mno-single-pic-base for building the decompressor

2013-03-06T23:45:42+00:00

Before jumping to (position independent) C-code from the decompressor's
assembler world we set-up the C environment. This setup currently does not
set r9, which for arm-none-uclinux-uclibceabi toolchains is by default
expected to be the PIC offset base register (IE should point to the
beginning of the GOT).

Currently, therefore, in order to build working kernels that use the
decompressor it is necessary to use an arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain, or
similar. uClinux toolchains cause a prefetch abort to occur at the beginning
of the decompress_kernel function.

This patch allows uClinux toolchains to build bootable zImages by forcing
the -mno-single-pic-base option, which ensures that the location of the GOT
is re-derived each time it is required, and r9 becomes free for use as a
general purpose register.

This has a small (4% in instruction terms) advantage over the alternative of
setting r9 to point to the GOT before calling into the C-world.

ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG is only used in lib/inflate.c which is not

ARM: 7600/1: include CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE rather than mach/debug-macro.S

2012-12-16T10:04:23+00:00

Commit 91a9fec (ARM: move debug macros to common location) moves
arch/arm/kernel/debug.S and arch/arm/kernel/head.S to
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE, but leaves arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S
still with mach/debug-macro.S.  This causes the following build error
on platforms that moved to new DEBUG_LL inclusion mechanism, when
arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S is compiled with DEBUG turned on.

  AS      arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.o
arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:49:30: fatal error: mach/debug-macro.S: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Fix the problem by replacing mach/debug-macro.S inclusion with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE one.

Merge tag 'soc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc

2012-12-12T20:05:15+00:00

Pull ARM SoC updates from Olof Johansson:
 "This contains the bulk of new SoC development for this merge window.

  Two new platforms have been added, the sunxi platforms (Allwinner A1x
  SoCs) by Maxime Ripard, and a generic Broadcom platform for a new
  series of ARMv7 platforms from them, where the hope is that we can
  keep the platform code generic enough to have them all share one mach
  directory.  The new Broadcom platform is contributed by Christian
  Daudt.

  Highbank has grown support for Calxeda's next generation of hardware,
  ECX-2000.

  clps711x has seen a lot of cleanup from Alexander Shiyan, and he's
  also taken on maintainership of the platform.

  Beyond this there has been a bunch of work from a number of people on
  converting more platforms to IRQ domains, pinctrl conversion, cleanup
  and general feature enablement across most of the active platforms."

Fix up trivial conflicts as per Olof.

ARM: 7583/1: decompressor: Enable unaligned memory access for v6 and above

2012-11-23T13:02:03+00:00

Modern GCC can generate code which makes use of the CPU's native
unaligned memory access capabilities.  This is useful for the C
decompressor implementations used for unpacking compressed kernels.

This patch disables alignment faults and enables the v6 unaligned
access model on CPUs which support these features (i.e., v6 and
later), allowing full unaligned access support for C code in the
decompressor.

The decompressor C code must not be built to assume that unaligned
access works if support for v5 or older platforms is included in
the kernel.

For correct code generation, C decompressor code must always use
the get_unaligned and put_unaligned accessors when dealing with
unaligned pointers, regardless of this patch.
