Adding a reference to <linux/linkage.h> to x86's <asm/cache.h> causes the x86 linker script to have syntax errors, because the ALIGN and ENTRY keywords get redefined to the assembly implementations of those. One could fix this by adjusting the include structure, but I think any solution based on that approach would be fragile. Currently, it is impossible when writing a header to do something different for assembly files and linker scripts, even though there are clearly cases where one wants them to define macros differently for the two (ENTRY being an excellent example). So I think the right solution here is to introduce a new preprocessor definition, called LINKER_SCRIPT that is set along with __ASSEMBLY__ for linker scripts, and to use that to not define ALIGN and ENTRY in linker scripts. I suspect we'll find other uses for this mechanism in the future. Signed-off-by: Tim Abbott <tabbott@ksplice.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> reported: Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them. This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds. This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile, or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh) Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script. This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where it is used. Notes for the different architectures touched: arm - we use an already exported symbol cris - we use a config symbol aleady available [Not build tested] mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it. Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by the linker script. [Not build tested] powerpc - removed assignment that is not needed [not build tested] sparc - simplified it using $(BITS) um - introduced a few new exported variables to deal with this xtensa - added options to CPP invocation [not build tested] Cc: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Cc: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Mikael Starvik <starvik@axis.com> Cc: Jesper Nilsson <jesper.nilsson@axis.com> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: "David S.

When typeahead find is enabled, using 'y', 'n' and 'm' to change the status of the configuration items will also start up the search system, making you jump around the configuration. Disabling the enable_search property does not mean that search is not possible, it only disables the typeahead; to execute a search in the treeview, you can just call it up explicitly (i.e.: on most systems that will be Ctrl-f).

The arch/*/boot/Makefile use cc-options to check for GCC command options and cc-options use the hardened specs when checking for GCC command options. When -fPIE is pass to cc1 it can't use -ffreestanding or -fno-toplevel-reorder. Then it fail to build stuff with -ffreestanding and -fno-toplevel-reorder.

Stefani Seibold authored
The tag file generated by the tags.sh script has some issue. First: The identifier-list miss the DEFINE_TRACE,EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL,EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL_GPL special handling, which can result in a wrong tag, not to jump to the right variable definition or function implementation. Second: It makes no real sense to include function prototypes and external and forward variable declarations, because jumping to a tag will sometimes go to this and not to the real definition and implementation. The information about the declaration is still there at the definition and implementation place. So this patch make it lot easier to navigate through the kernel source tree using vi.

When building a kernel for a different architecture kbuild requires the user always to specify ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE on the command-line. We use the asm symlink to detect if user forgets to specify the correct ARCH value - but that symlink is about to die. And we do now want to loose this check. This patch save the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE in two files named: include/generated/kernel.arch include/generated/kernel.cross The settings are saved during "make *config" time and always read. If user try to change the settings we error out. This works both for plain builds and for O=... builds. So now you can do: $ mkdir sparc64 $ make O=sparc64 ARCH=sparc64 CROSS_COMPILE=sparc64-linux- defconfig $ cd sparc64 $ make Notice that you no longer need to tell kbuild the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE when you type make in the output directory. Likewise for plain builds where you do not use O=... Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL to select a custom installkernel script when running make: make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install With this patch we are now more consistent across different architectures - they did not all support use of CROSS_COMPILE. The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change just because we change toolchain. The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no longer be installable. [Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint] This patch undos what Ian did in commit: 0f8e2d62 ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh") The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes looks obvious.

This is largely a straightforward conversion. The patch results in fewer output sections, and some data being reordered, but should have no functional impact. Also, note that this patch moves some data (namely, init_task and cacheline-aligned) inside [_sdata,_edata]. Because frv already builds using -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections, we can't use BSS_SECTION or RW_DATA_SECTION yet, since they do not currently include the required .bss.* and .data.* sections.
