  • 367b8112f   xtensa: move headers files to arch/xtensa/include ... Browse Code »

    Move all header files for xtensa to arch/xtensa/include and platform and
    variant header files to the appropriate arch/xtensa/platforms/ and
    arch/xtensa/variants/ directories.

    Moving the files gets also rid of all uses of symlinks in the Makefile.

    This has been completed already for the majority of the architectures
    and xtensa is one out of six missing.

    Commit 9a39e273d4df0560c724c5fe71f6314a0583ca2b removed the boot directory
    addition to CFLAGS that was being used by the subdirectory builds. For the
    other files, that patch set EXTRA_CFLAGS, but Makefile.build explicitly
    sets that to empty as it is explicitly for a single directory only.
    Append to KBUILD_CFLAGS instead.

  • a0f97e06a   kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CC ... Browse Code »

    The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
    kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
    On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
    pass in additional flags to gcc.

    This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
    tree and enabling one to use:
    make CFLAGS=...
    to specify additional gcc commandline options.

    One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
    use cases has been requested too.

    Patch was tested on following architectures:
    alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k

    Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
    that nothing got rebuild.

  • 9a39e273d   kbuild: fix up CFLAGS usage ... Browse Code »

    Only in very rare cases is it needed to change CFLAGS
    outside of arch/*/Makefile.
    Fix up all wrong cases - in most cases
    the use of EXTRA_CFLAGS is the only thing needed.

  • 173d66813   [PATCH] xtensa: remove extra header files ... Browse Code »

    The Xtensa port contained many header files that were never needed. This
    rather lengthy patch removes all those files. Unfortunately, there were
    many dependencies that needed to be updated, so this patch touches quite a
    few source files.

    43

    Upgrade the zlib_inflate implementation in the kernel from a patched
    version 1.1.3/4 to a patched 1.2.3.

    The code in the kernel is about seven years old and I noticed that the
    external zlib library's inflate performance was significantly faster (~50%)
    than the code in the kernel on ARM (and faster again on x86_32).

    For comparison the newer deflate code is 20% slower on ARM and 50% slower
    on x86_32 but gives an approx 1% compression ratio improvement. I don't
    consider this to be an improvement for kernel use so have no plans to
    change the zlib_deflate code.

    Various changes have been made to the zlib code in the kernel, the most
    significant being the extra functions/flush option used by ppp_deflate.
    This update reimplements the features PPP needs to ensure it continues to
    work.

    This code has been tested on ARM under both JFFS2 (with zlib compression
    enabled) and ppp_deflate and on x86_32. JFFS2 sees an approx. 10% real
    world file read speed improvement.

    This patch also removes ZLIB_VERSION as it no longer has a correct value.
    We don't need version checks anyway as the kernel's module handling will
    take care of that for us. This removal is also more in keeping with the
    zlib author's wishes (http://www.zlib.net/zlib_faq.html#faq24) and I've
    added something to the zlib.h header to note its a modified version.
