s390: remove "64" suffix from a couple of files

2015-03-25T10:49:34+00:00

Rename a couple of files to get rid of the "64" suffix.
"git blame" will still work.

s390: remove 31 bit support

2015-03-25T10:49:33+00:00

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.

The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.

Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

s390/sclp: fix declaration of _sclp_print_early()

2015-01-08T09:02:51+00:00

_sclp_print_early() has return value: at present, return 0 for OK, 1 for
failure. It returns '%r2', so use 'long' as return value (upper caller
can check '%r2' directly). The related warning:

    CC      arch/s390/boot/compressed/misc.o
  arch/s390/boot/compressed/misc.c:66:8: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of '_sclp_print_early' [-Wimplicit-int]
   extern _sclp_print_early(const char *);
          ^

At present, _sclp_print_early() is only used by puts(), so can still
remain its declaration in 'misc.c' file.

[heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com]: move declaration to sclp.h header file

s390/boot: fix boot of compressed kernel built with gcc 4.9

2014-05-27T08:26:04+00:00

Add -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks to CFLAGS for the code in
arch/s390/boot. Without the option a compressed kernel built with
gcc 4.9 won't boot.

s390/boot: Install bzImage as default kernel image

2013-11-15T13:08:36+00:00

The compressed kernel image is built since commit "[S390] add support for
compressed kernels" (1844c9bc0b2fed3023551c1affe033ab38e90b9a).
Now install the compressed kernel image (bzImage) as default.

s390: fix linker script for 31 bit builds

2012-10-18T15:50:10+00:00

Because of a change in the s390 arch backend of binutils (commit 23ecd77
"Pick the default arch depending on the target size" in binutils repo)
31 bit builds will fail since the linker would now try to create 64 bit
binary output.
Fix this by setting OUTPUT_ARCH to s390:31-bit instead of s390.
Thanks to Andreas Krebbel for figuring out the issue.

Fixes this build error:

  LD      init/built-in.o
s390x-4.7.2-ld: s390:31-bit architecture of input file
 `arch/s390/kernel/head.o' is incompatible with s390:64-bit output

s390/ipl,decrompressor: disable branch profiling

The early kernel decrompressing code can't call into the kernel
in order to profile branches. Fixes this link error:

s390/string: provide asm lib functions for memcpy and memcmp

2012-09-26T13:44:50+00:00

Our memcpy and memcmp variants were implemented by calling the corresponding
gcc builtin variants.
However gcc is free to replace a call to __builtin_memcmp with a call to memcmp
which, when called, will result in an endless recursion within memcmp.
So let's provide asm variants and also fix the variants that are used for
uncompressing the kernel image.
In addition remove all other occurences of builtin function calls.
