<title>mips: always link byteswap helpers into decompressor</title>

[ Upstream commit cddc40f5617e53f97ef019d5b29c1bd6cbb031ec ]

My series to clean up the unaligned access implementation
across architectures caused some mips randconfig builds to
fail with:

   mips64-linux-ld: arch/mips/boot/compressed/decompress.o: in function `decompress_kernel':
   decompress.c:(.text.decompress_kernel+0x54): undefined reference to `__bswapsi2'

It turns out that this problem has already been fixed for the XZ
decompressor but now it also shows up in (at least) LZO and LZ4.  From my
analysis I concluded that the compiler could always have emitted those
calls, but the different implementation allowed it to make otherwise
better decisions about not inlining the byteswap, which results in the
link error when the out-of-line code is missing.

While it could be addressed by adding it to the two decompressor
implementations that are known to be affected, but as this only adds
112 bytes to the kernel, the safer choice is to always add them.

Fixes: 0652035a5794 ("asm-generic: unaligned: remove byteshift helpers")

commit 4d4f9c1a17a3480f8fe523673f7232b254d724b7 upstream.

The compressed payload is not necesarily 4-byte aligned, at least when
compiling with Clang. In that case, the 4-byte value appended to the
compressed payload that corresponds to the uncompressed kernel image
size must be read using get_unaligned_le32().

This fixes Clang-built kernels not booting on MIPS (tested on a Ingenic
JZ4770 board).

[ Upstream commit ff487d41036035376e47972c7c522490b839ab37 ]

LLD failed to link vmlinux with 64bit load address for 32bit ELF
while bfd will strip 64bit address into 32bit silently.
To fix LLD build, we should truncate load address provided by platform
into 32bit for 32bit kernel.

[ Upstream commit 1196364f21ffe5d1e6d83cafd6a2edb89404a3ae ]

calc_vmlinuz_load_addr.c requires SZ_64K to be defined for alignment
purposes.  It included "../../../../include/linux/sizes.h" to define
that size, however "sizes.h" tries to include &lt;linux/const.h&gt; which
assumes linux system headers.  These may not exist eg. the following
error was encountered when building Linux for OpenWrt under macOS:

In file included from arch/mips/boot/compressed/calc_vmlinuz_load_addr.c:16:
arch/mips/boot/compressed/../../../../include/linux/sizes.h:11:10: fatal error: 'linux/const.h' file not found
         ^~~~~~~~~~

Change makefile to force building on local linux headers instead of
system headers.  Also change eye-watering relative reference in include
file spec.

Thanks to Jo-Philip Wich &amp; Petr Štetiar for assistance in tracking this
down &amp; fixing.

commit bec0de4cfad21bd284dbddee016ed1767a5d2823 upstream.

KEXEC needs the new kernel's load address to be aligned on a page
boundary (see sanity_check_segment_list()), but on MIPS the default
vmlinuz load address is only explicitly aligned to 16 bytes.

Since the largest PAGE_SIZE supported by MIPS kernels is 64KB, increase
the alignment calculated by calc_vmlinuz_load_addr to 64KB.

commit bec0de4cfad21bd284dbddee016ed1767a5d2823 upstream.

KEXEC needs the new kernel's load address to be aligned on a page
boundary (see sanity_check_segment_list()), but on MIPS the default
vmlinuz load address is only explicitly aligned to 16 bytes.

Since the largest PAGE_SIZE supported by MIPS kernels is 64KB, increase
the alignment calculated by calc_vmlinuz_load_addr to 64KB.

commit 3cad14d56adbf7d621fc5a35db42f3acc0a2d6e8 upstream.

arch/mips/boot/dts/brcm/bcm96358nb4ser.dts does not exist, so
we cannot build bcm96358nb4ser.dtb .

commit bcd7c45e0d5a82be9a64b90050f0e09d41a50758 upstream.

The .its targets require information about the kernel binary, such as
its entry point, which is extracted from the vmlinux ELF. We therefore
require that the ELF is built before the .its files are generated.
Declare this requirement in the Makefile such that make will ensure this
is always the case, otherwise in corner cases we can hit issues as the
.its is generated with an incorrect (either invalid or stale) entry
point.
