The TUNE_CELL option allows you to build a kernel that runs on multiple CPUs but is tuned (ie. optimised) to run on Cell CPUs. Now days no one is building a distro in that fashion, and any users who are building custom kernels for their Cell machines are better off building with CONFIG_CELL_CPU, which builds a kernel that only runs on Cell and therefore can be optimised even more aggresively. Dropping the option also avoids confusing other users, who are presented with an option to tune for Cell when they are not building for a Cell CPU at all.

We cannot detect clang before including the arch Makefile, because that can set the default cross compiler. We also cannot detect clang after including the arch Makefile, because powerpc wants to know about clang. Solve this by using an deferred variable. This costs us a few shell invocations, but this is only a constant number.

Unify mpc85xx and corenet configs using fragments, to ease maintenance and avoid the sort of drift that the previous patch fixed. Hardware and software options are separated, with the hope that other embedded platforms could share the software options, and to make it easier to maintain custom/alternate configs that focus on either hardware or software options. Due to the previous patch, this patch should not affect the results of any of the affected defconfigs -- only how those results are achieved. The resulting config is more or less the union of the options that any of the configs previously selected. No attempt was made in this (or the previous) patch to edit out questionable options, but this patch will make it easier to do so in future patches.

Rather than continuing to maintain a copy of pseries_defconfig with CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN enabled, use the generic merge_config script and use an le.config to enable little endian on top of pseries_defconfig without the need for a duplicated _defconfig file. This method will require less maintenance in the future and will ensure that both 'defconfigs' are always in sync. It is worth noting that the seemingly more simple approach of: pseries_le_defconfig: pseries_defconfig $(Q)$(MAKE) le.config Will not work when building using O=builddir. The obvious fix to that: pseries_le_defconfig: $(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile pseries_defconfig le.config Also does not work. This is because if we have for example: config FOO depends on CPU_BIG_ENDIAN select BAR Then BAR will be enabled by the first call to kconfig (via pseries_defconfig), and then will remain enabled after we merge le.config, even though FOO will have been turned off. The solution is to ensure to only invoke the kconfig logic once, after we have merged all the config fragments. This ensures nothing is select'ed on that should then be disabled by the later merged configs. This is done through the explicit call to make olddefconfig Signed-off-by: NCyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: NSamuel Mendoza-Jonas <sam.mj@au1.ibm.com> [mpe: Massage change log, fix white space and use ARCH not SRCARCH] Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

There is a bug in binutils 2.24 which causes miscompilation if we're building little endian and using weak symbols (which the kernel does). It is fixed in binutils commit 57fa7b8c7e59 "Correct elf_merge_st_other arguments for weak symbols", which is in binutils 2.25 and has been backported to the binutils 2.24 branch and has been picked up by most distros it seems. However if we're running stock 2.24 (no extra version) then the bug is present, so check for that and bail. Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

We have several checks for bad gcc versions in our Makefile. These don't apply if we're building with clang, so skip them in that case. The obvious check would be for ${COMPILER} = "gcc", but because of the way the logic in the top level Makefile conditionally sets COMPILER, it's possible that we're building with gcc but COMPILER was not set. So instead check for ${COMPILER} != "clang", which we know is currently the only other possibility. Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

With binutils 2.24, various 64 bit builds fail with relocation errors such as arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `exc_debug_crit_book3e': (.text+0x165ee): relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI against symbol `interrupt_base_book3e' defined in .text section in arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `exc_debug_crit_book3e': (.text+0x16602): relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI against symbol `interrupt_end_book3e' defined in .text section in arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o The assembler maintainer says: I changed the ABI, something that had to be done but unfortunately happens to break the booke kernel code. When building up a 64-bit value with lis, ori, shl, oris, ori or similar sequences, you now should use @high and @higha in place of @h and @ha. @h and @ha (and their associated relocs R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI and R_PPC64_ADDR16_HA) now report overflow if the value is out of 32-bit signed range. ie. @h and @ha assume you're building a 32-bit value. This is needed to report out-of-range -mcmodel=medium toc pointer offsets in @toc@h and @toc@ha expressions, and for consistency I did the same for all other @h and @ha relocs. Replacing @h with @high in one strategic location fixes the relocation errors. This has to be done conditionally since the assembler either supports @h or @high but not both.

powerpc: Avoid load of static chain register when calling nested functions through a pointer on 64bit The ppc64 ABI has a static chain register (r11) which is only used when calling nested functions through a pointer. Considering that we take a dim view of nested functions in the kernel, we have a lot of unnecessary overhead here. gcc 4.7 has an option to disable loading of r11 so lets use it. If hell freezes over and hipsters manage to litter the kernel with nested functions, gcc will give us an error message and won't simply compile bad code: You cannot take the address of a nested function if you use the -mno-pointers-to-nested-functions option. Furthermore our kernel module trampolines don't setup the static chain register so adding this option and forcing gcc to error out makes even more sense.

Finally remove the two level TOC and build with -mcmodel=medium. Unfortunately we can't build modules with -mcmodel=medium due to the tricks the kernel module loader plays with percpu data: # -mcmodel=medium breaks modules because it uses 32bit offsets from # the TOC pointer to create pointers where possible. Pointers into the # percpu data area are created by this method. # # The kernel module loader relocates the percpu data section from the # original location (starting with 0xd...) to somewhere in the base # kernel percpu data space (starting with 0xc...). We need a full # 64bit relocation for this to work, hence -mcmodel=large.

The ppc64 kernel can get loaded at any address which means our very early init code in prom_init.c must be relocatable. We do this with a pretty nasty RELOC() macro that we wrap accesses of variables with. It is very fragile and sometimes we forget to add a RELOC() to an uncommon path or sometimes a compiler change breaks it. 32bit has a much more elegant solution where we build prom_init.c with -mrelocatable and then process the relocations manually. Unfortunately we can't do the equivalent on 64bit and we would have to build the entire kernel relocatable (-pie), resulting in a large increase in kernel footprint (megabytes of relocation data). The relocation data will be marked __initdata but it still creates more pressure on our already tight memory layout at boot. Alan Modra pointed out that the 64bit ABI is relocatable even if we don't build with -pie, we just need to relocate the TOC. This patch implements that idea and relocates the TOC entries of prom_init.c. An added bonus is there are very few relocations to process which helps keep boot times on simulators down. gcc does not put 64bit integer constants into the TOC but to be safe we may want a build time script which passes through the prom_init.c TOC entries to make sure everything looks reasonable.
