  • 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:

    0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46
    ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

    The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
    looks obvious.

  • Rather than use "Linux" in the boot image name (as this is redundant --
    the image type is already set to "linux"), use the CPU name. This makes
    it fairly obvious when a wrong image is accidentally booted. Otherwise
    there is no kernel output and you waste time scratching your head
    wondering wtf just happened.

  • This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
    currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
    (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
    avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
    BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards.

    The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
    Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
    December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
    processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
    orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC
    (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
    single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
    instruction-set architecture.

    The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
    ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
    http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

    The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
    there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
    http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
    documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
    http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
    patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
    bfin-linux-uclibc

    This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
    uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
    http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

    We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
    be found at:
