Changes introduced to arch/mips/Makefile for the generic kernel resulted
in build errors when making a compressed image if platform-y has multiple
values, like this:make[2]: *** No rule to make target `alchemy/'.
make[1]: *** [vmlinuz] Error 2
make[1]: Target `_all' not remade because of errors.
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make: Target `_all' not remade because of errors.Fix this by quoting $(platform-y) as it is passed to the Makefile in

Convert the MIPS SEAD-3 board support to be a generic board, supported
by generic kernels.Because the SEAD-3 boot protocol was defined long ago and we don't want
to force a switch to the UHI protocol, SEAD-3 is added as a legacy board
which is detected by reading the REVISION register. This may technically
not be a valid memory read & future work will include attempting to
handle that gracefully. In practice since SEAD-3 is the only legacy
board supported by the generic kernel so far the read will only happen
on SEAD-3 boards, and even once Malta is converted the same REVISION
register exists there too. Other boards such as Boston, Ci20 & Ci40 will
use the UHI boot protocol & thus not run any of the legacy board detect
functions.Signed-off-by: Paul Burton

Introduce a "generic" platform, which aims to be board-agnostic by
making use of device trees passed by the boot protocol defined in the
MIPS UHI (Universal Hosting Interface) specification. Provision is made
for supporting boards which use a legacy boot protocol that can't be
changed, but adding support for such boards or any others is left to
followon patches.Right now the built kernels expect to be loaded to 0x80100000, ie. in
kseg0. This is fine for the vast majority of MIPS platforms, but
nevertheless it would be good to remove this limitation in the future by
mapping the kernel via the TLB such that it can be loaded anywhere & map
itself appropriately.Configuration is handled by dynamically generating configs using
scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh, somewhat similar to the way powerpc
makes use of it. This allows for variations upon the configuration, eg.
differing architecture revisions or subsets of driver support for
differing boards, to be handled without having a large number of
defconfig files.Signed-off-by: Paul Burton

Add support for generating kernel images in the Flattened Image Tree
(.itb) format as supported by U-Boot. This format is essentially a
Flattened Device Tree binary containing images (kernels, DTBs, ramdisks)
and configurations which link those images together. The big advantages
of FIT images over the uImage format are:- We can include FDTs in the kernel image in a way that the bootloader
can extract it & manipulate it before providing it to the kernel.
Thus we can ship FDTs as part of the kernel giving us the advantages
of being able to develop & maintain the DT within the kernel tree,
but also have the benefits of the bootloader being able to
manipulate the FDT. Example uses for this would be to inject the
kernel command line into the chosen node, or to fill in the correct
memory size.- We can include multiple configurations in a single kernel image.
This means that a single FIT image can, given appropriate
bootloaders, be booted on different boards with the bootloader
selecting an appropriate configuration & providing the correct FDT
to the kernel.- We can support a multitude of hashes over the data.

Commit c1a0e9bc885d ("MIPS: Allow compact branch policy to be changed")
added Kconfig entries allowing for the compact branch policy used by the
compiler for MIPSr6 kernels to be specified. This can be useful for
debugging, particularly in systems where compact branches have recently
been introduced.Unfortunately mainline gcc 5.x supports MIPSr6 but not the
-mcompact-branches compiler flag, leading to MIPSr6 kernels failing to
build with gcc 5.x with errors such as:mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mcompact-branches=optimal'
make[2]: *** [kernel/bounds.s] Error 1Fixing this by hiding the Kconfig entry behind another seems to be more
hassle than it's worth, as MIPSr6 & compact branches have been around
for a while now and if policy does need to be set for debug it can be
done easily enough with KCFLAGS. Therefore remove the compact branch
policy Kconfig entries & their handling in the Makefile.This reverts commit c1a0e9bc885d ("MIPS: Allow compact branch policy to
be changed").Signed-off-by: Paul Burton

The VZ guest register & TLB access macros introduced in commit "MIPS:
Add guest CP0 accessors" use VZ ASE specific instructions that aren't
understood by versions of binutils prior to 2.24.Add a check for whether the toolchain supports the -mvirt option,
similar to the MSA toolchain check, and implement the accessors using
.word if not.Due to difficulty in converting compiler specified registers (e.g. "$3")
to usable numbers (e.g. "3") in inline asm, we need to copy to/from a
temporary register, namely the assembler temporary (at/$1), and specify
guest CP0 registers numerically in the gc0 macros.Fixes: 7eb91118227d ("MIPS: Add guest CP0 accessors")

Pass 1 parts had a number of significant erratas and were only available
in small numbers and under NDA. Full support also required the use of a
special toolchain that kept branches properly aligned. These workarounds
were never upstreamed and the only toolchain known to have them is
Montavista's GCC 3.0-based toolchain which completly obsoleted if not
useless these days.So now that automated testing has tripped over the user of the
-msb1-pass1-workarounds option, rather than fixing it remove support for
pass 1 parts.Probably nobody will notice. I seem to own the last know pass 1 board
and I haven't noticed another one in the wild in the past decade, at
least.Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

Commit 32098ec7bcba ("MIPS: Makefile: Move the ASEs checks after
setting the core's CFLAGS") re-arranged the MIPS ASE detection code
and also added the current cflags to the detection logic. However,
this introduced a few bugs. First of all, the mips-cflags should not
be quoted since that ends up being passed as a string to subsequent
commands leading to broken detection from the cc-option-* tools.
Moreover, in order to avoid duplicating the cflags-y because of how
cc-option works, we rework the logic so we pass only those cflags which
are needed by the selected ASE. Finally, fix some typos resulting in MSA
not being detected correctly.Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras

The loongson 3A cores do not select a suitable -march option so the build
system uses the default one from the toolchain. This may or may not be
suitable for a loongson 3A build. In order to avoid that, we explicitly set
a suitable -march option for that core. Furthermore, some very old
compilers don't support -march= at all and there is the possibility of
toolchain combinations such as GCC 4.9 and binutils 2.24 for which
-march=loongson3a will result in MIPS64 R2 code being generated but then
rejected by GAS. So treat the Longsoon 3A as an R2 CPU.Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

This fixes a regression caused by commit
bb6c0bd3fdb67c8a1fceea1d4700b9ee593309f9 [MIPS: SB1: Fix excessive kernel
warnings.], that makes `-march=r5000' selected for compilation flags
rather than supposed `-march=sb1' with compilers that do not support the
ASE selection flags introduced with that change.For example GCC 4.1.2 supports `-mips3d'/`-mno-mips3d' (and obviously
`-march=sb1'), however it does not support `-mdmx'/`-mno-mdmx'. As a
result the whole selection of flags fails and compilation resorts to using
`-march=r5000', meant for really old compilers indeed only.It is always best to pick the flags individually unless we are absolutely
sure a set of flags was introduced to the toolchain together (`-march=sb1'
and `-mtune=sb1' would be a good example), and this change makes it happen
for CONFIG_CPU_SB1. Consequently the flags ultimately selected with GCC
4.1.2 are `-march=sb1 -Wa,--trap -mno-mips3d'Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki

This patch introduces definitions for the MSA control registers and
functions which allow access to both the control & vector registers. If
the toolchain being used to build the kernel includes support for MSA
then this patch will make use of that support & use MSA instructions
directly. However toolchain support for MSA is very new & far from a
point where it can be reasonably expected that everyone building the
kernel uses a toolchain with support. Thus fallbacks using .word
assembler directives are also provided for now as a temporary measure.Signed-off-by: Paul Burton

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
"The most notable new addition inside this pull request is the support

patch series describes this core as follows."The interAptiv is a power-efficient multi-core microprocessor
for use in system-on-chip (SoC) applications. The interAptiv combines
a multi-threading pipeline with a coherence manager to deliver improved
computational throughput and power efficiency. The interAptiv can

coherence manager with L2 cache, optional coherent I/O port,
and optional floating point unit."The platform specific patches touch all 3 Broadcom families. It adds

Remove usage of -mno-jals compiler flag when building a pure
microMIPS kernel. The -mno-jals flag only ever existed within
Mentor toolchains. Dropping this flag allows all FSF toolchains
to work.Signed-off-by: Steven J. Hill

Instead of duplicating the CC_STACKPROTECTOR Kconfig and
Makefile logic in each architecture, switch to using
HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR and keep everything in one place. This
retains the x86-specific bug verification scripts.Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

When CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT is not enabled, we will still try to
build the decompressor code in arch/mips/boot/compressed as a
dependency for producing the vmlinuz target and this will result in
the following build failure:OBJCOPY arch/mips/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin
arch/mips/boot/compressed/decompress.c: In function 'decompress_kernel':
arch/mips/boot/compressed/decompress.c:105:2: error: implicit
declaration of function 'decompress'
make[1]: *** [arch/mips/boot/compressed/decompress.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make: *** [vmlinuz] Error 2This is a genuine build failure because we have no implementation for
the decompress() function body since no kernel compression method
defined in CONFIG_KERNEL_(GZIP,BZIP2...) has been enabled.arch/mips/Makefile already guards the install target for the "vmlinuz"
binary with a proper ifdef CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT, we now also do the
same if we attempt to do a "make vmlinuz" and show that
CONFIG_SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT is not enabled.[ralf@linux-mips.org: Cleanup the makefile rule as suggested by James
