  • 7c4318513   Kbuild: Use dtc's -d (dependency) option ... Browse Code »
    43

    This hooks dtc into Kbuild's dependency system.

    Thus, for example, "make dtbs" will rebuild tegra-harmony.dtb if only
    tegra20.dtsi has changed yet tegra-harmony.dts has not. The previous
    lack of this feature recently caused me to have very confusing "git
    bisect" results.

    For ARM, it's obvious what to add to $(targets). I'm not familiar enough
    with other architectures to know what to add there. Powerpc appears to
    already add various .dtb files into $(targets), but the other archs may
    need something added to $(targets) to work.

  • 5f300acd8   ARM: 7152/1: distclean: Remove generated .dtb files ... Browse Code »

    The patch 'arm/dt: Add dtb make rule' adds support to
    create a .dtb file. But this is never removed afterwards.
    Remove the generated .dtb file if 'distclean' is called.

  • a65d29225   ARM: add 'uinstall' target for installing uboot kernels ... Browse Code »

    We have 'install' and 'zinstall' for installing Image and zImage
    kernels, so add 'uinstall' to complete the set.

    This allows developers to have a ~/bin/installkernel script which (eg)
    copies the kernel to the tftp server automatically once the kernel
    has built, resulting in a better workflow.

  • 26e5ca93d   ARM: 6503/1: Thumb-2: Restore sensible zImage header layout for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL ... Browse Code »

    The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a
    32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic
    number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address.

    This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the
    size of the initial padding NOPs changes.

    Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to
    ARM.

    In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a
    sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point.

    As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no
    special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the
    Thumb-2 case.

  • e69edc793   ARM: Auto calculate ZRELADDR and provide option for exceptions ... Browse Code »

    As long as the zImage is placed within the 128MB range from the start of
    memory, ZRELADDR (Address where the decompressed kernel will be placed,
    usually == PHYS_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET) can be determined at run-time by
    masking PC with 0xf80000000.

    Running through all the Makefile.boot, all those zreladdr-y
    addresses == 0x[0-f][08]00_0000 + TEXT_OFFSET can be determined at
    run-time.

    Option CONFIG_AUTO_ZRELADDR and CONFIG_ZRELADDR are introduced,
    CONFIG_ZRELADDR _must_ be explicitly specified if:

    - ((zreladdr-y - TEXT_OFFSET) & ~0xf8000000) != 0, which means
    masking PC with 0xf8000000 will result in an incorrect address.
    Currently this is only a problem on u300.

    - or the assumption of the zImage being loaded by the bootloader within
    the first 128MB of RAM is incorrect

    - or when ZBOOT_ROM is used, where the above assumption is usually wrong.

    + some review fixes from the mailing list]

  • 4f1933620   kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior ... Browse Code »

    The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
    Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
    even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both
    the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

    For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

    Changes in this patch:
    - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
    - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
    - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

  • 9d4f13e53   [ARM] Make kernel link address depend on PAGE_OFFSET ... Browse Code »

    We are coding the kernel link address into the makefiles, which is
    invisibly dependent on PAGE_OFFSET. If PAGE_OFFSET is changed, the
    makefiles also need to be changed.

    Make adjustments such that the makefiles encode just the offset from
    PAGE_OFFSET for the kernel link address, and use PAGE_OFFSET in the
    linker scripts directly.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
