2008-04-17[POWERPC] Provide access to arch/powerpc include path on ppc64Kumar Gala
There does not appear to be any reason that we shouldn't just have -Iarch/$(ARCH) on both ppc32 and ppc64 builds. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-04-02[POWERPC] add target for building .dtb filesGrant Likely
Call dtc from the Makefile instead of the wrapper script so that the dt blobs can be generated with a simple make invocation. Using this patch allows board ports to trigger automatic building of .dtb files by adding them to the image-y target list.

2008-03-13[POWERPC] Fix zImage-dtb.initrd build errorGrant Likely
The pattern substitution rules were failing when used with zImage-dtb targets. If zImage-dtb.initrd was selected, the pattern substitution would generate "zImage.initrd-dtb" instead of "zImage-dtb.initrd" which caused the build to fail. This renames zImage-dtb to dtbImage to avoid the problem entirely. By not using the zImage prefix then is no potential for namespace collisions.

2008-02-07[POWERPC] bootwrapper: Build multiple cuImagesGrant Likely
Currently, the kernel uses CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE to wrap a kernel image with a fdt blob which means for any given configuration only one dts file can be selected and so support for only one board can be built This moves the selection of the default .dts file out of the kernel config and into the bootwrapper makefile. The makefile chooses which images to build based on the kernel config and the dts source file name is taken directly from the image name. For example "cuImage.ebony" will use "ebony.dts" as the device tree source file. In addition, this patch allows a specific image to be requested from the command line by adding "cuImage.%" and "treeImage.%" targets to the list of valid built targets in arch/powerpc/Makefile. This allows the default dts selection to be overridden. Another advantage to this change is it allows a single defconfig to be supplied for all boards using the same chip family and only differing in the device tree. Important note: This patch adds two new zImage targets; zImage.dtb.% and zImage.dtb.initrd.% for zImages with embedded dtb files. Currently there are 5 platforms which require this: ps3, ep405, mpc885ads, ep88xc, adder875-redboot and ep8248e. This patch *changes the zImage filenames* for those platforms. ie. 'zImage.ps3' is now 'zImage.dtb.ps3'. This new zImage.dtb targets were added so that the .dts file could be part of the dependancies list for building them.

2007-12-06[POWERPC] Implement 'make bootwrapper_install'David Woodhouse
This adds a 'bootwrapper_install' make target for the powerpc architecture, which installs the wrapper script, intermediate object files and device-tree sources for later use. This will then allow bootable zImages to be created other than in the context of a kernel build. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-11-09[POWERPC] Add -mno-spe for ARCH=powerpc buildsKumar Gala
Newer GCC's are capable of autovectorization for ISA extensions like AltiVec and SPE. If we happen to build with one of those compilers we will get SPE instructions in random kernel code. Today we only allow basic interger code in the kernel and FP, AltiVec, or SPE in special explicit locations that have handled the proper saving and restoring of the register state (since on uniprocessor we lazy context switch the register state for FP, AltiVec, and SPE). -mno-spe disables the compiler for automatically generating SPE instructions without our knowledge.

2007-10-03[POWERPC] Select proper defconfig for crosscompilesAdrian Bunk
The trick for finding the right defconfig is neat, but you forgot to provide an i686_defconfig. ;-) More seriously, cross compiling the defconfig is often useful, e.g. for testing the compilation of patches that touch multiple architectures, and this patch therefore chooses g5_defconfig if $(CROSS_COMPILE) is non-empty.

2007-05-12[POWERPC] Add Makefile rules to wrap dts file in zImageMark A. Greer
Add 'zImage.dts' and 'zImage.dts_initrd' build rules that automatically compile and wrap a dts file from arch/powerpc/boot/dts into the zImage file. The resulting zImage will be arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.dts.<platform> and arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.dts_initrd.<platform>, respectively. Having separate rules allows the user to choose whether to include a device tree--and which device tree--at build time. This is useful when one Makefile target builds a zImage that runs on several platforms except for differing device trees. By just setting CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE and running "make zImage.dts" the exact zImage you want is built without Makefile bloat or manually running the wrapper script. The dts file is expected to be arch/powerpc/boot/dts/$(CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE) Signed-off-by: Mark A. Greer <mgreer@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-09-28[POWERPC] Create a "wrapper" script and use it in arch/powerpc/bootPaul Mackerras
This puts the knowledge of how to create various sorts of zImage wrappers into a script called "wrapper" that could be used outside of the kernel tree. This changes arch/powerpc/boot so it first builds the files that the wrapper script needs, then runs it to create whatever flavours of zImage are required. This version does uImages as well. The zImage names are changed slightly; zImage.pseries is the one with the PT_NOTE program header entry added, and zImage.pmac is the one without. If the zImage.pseries gets made, it will also get hardlinked to zImage; otherwise, if zImage.pmac is made, it gets hardlinked to zImage. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

There were two files still referenced in the merge section of arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile: ppc-stub.o, depending on CONFIG_KGDB, and dma-mapping.o, depending on CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE. None of the platforms currently in ARCH=powerpc have caches that aren't coherent with DMA, but when we do get one we'll move dma-mapping.c over. As for CONFIG_KGDB, none of the Kconfig files in the tree define it, so I'll let it languish for now. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

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.
