      [ARM] 3107/3: ARM EABI: last bits to configure it · 704bdda0
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

This adds the configuration option, and disables any FPA floating point
emulators which are not EABI compatible.

It also disables Acorn RISC OS/Arthur binary support when CONFIG_EABI=y
since it is incompatible with an EABI kernel.

      [ARM] 3106/2: ARM EABI: some syscall adjustments · c155fc95
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

Fix a few syscalls for EABI requirements. They were sys_pread64 and
sys_pwrite64 where the last argument is now entirely pushed on stack,
but since commit 567bd980 they don't
require any fixup.  Remains only the stat64 structure. Non EABI kernels
are unaffected.

      [ARM] 3105/4: ARM EABI: new syscall entry convention · 3f2829a3
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

For a while we wanted to change the way syscalls were called on ARM.
Instead of encoding the syscall number in the swi instruction which
requires reading back the instruction from memory to extract that number
and polluting the data cache, it was decided that simply storing the
syscall number into r7 would be more efficient. Since this represents
an ABI change then making that change at the same time as EABI support
is the right thing to do.

It is now expected that EABI user space binaries put the syscall number
into r7 and use "swi 0" to call the kernel. Syscall register argument
are also expected to have "EABI arrangement" i.e. 64-bit arguments
should be put in a pair of registers from an even register number.

Example with long ftruncate64(unsigned int fd, loff_t length):

	legacy ABI:
	- put fd into r0
	- put length into r1-r2
	- use "swi #(0x900000 + 194)" to call the kernel

	new ARM EABI:
	- put fd into r0
	- put length into r2-r3 (skipping over r1)
	- put 194 into r7
	- use "swi 0" to call the kernel

Note that it is important to use 0 for the swi argument as backward
compatibility with legacy ABI user space relies on this.
The syscall macros in asm-arm/unistd.h were also updated to support
both ABIs and implement the right call method automatically.

      [ARM] 3103/1: ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned (part 2) · 499b2ea1
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

We must make sure that assembly code that modifies the stack pointer
before calling a C function does it so it remains 64-bit aligned.

      [ARM] 3102/1: ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned after a CPU exception · 2dede2d8
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

The ARM EABI says that the stack pointer has to be 64-bit aligned for
reasons already mentioned in patch #3101 when calling C functions.

We therefore must verify and adjust sp accordingly when taking an
exception from kernel mode since sp might not necessarily be 64-bit
aligned if the exception occurs in the middle of a kernel function.

If the exception occurs while in user mode then no sp fixup is needed as
long as sizeof(struct pt_regs) as well as any additional syscall data
stack space remain multiples of 8.

      [ARM] 3101/1: ARM EABI: slab memory must be 64-bit aligned · da2b1cd6
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

Although ARM is still using 32-bit pointers, version 5 and later
versions of the ARM architecture introduced the ldrd and strd
instructions to move 64-bit data which must be 64-bit aligned in memory,
and the EABI includes new constraints on structure data alignment to
allow for the compiler to use those instructions. This means that any
slab allocation must start on a 64-bit boundary which is not equivalent
to BYTES_PER_WORD, especially on those architecture versions that
implements the ldrd/strd instructions.

Overriding the default alignment disables some slab debug features. If
those debug features are really needed then the kernel will have to be
compiled for version 4 of the ARM architecture.
