From 26584853a44c58f3d6ac7360d697a2ddcd1a3efa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas Date: Sat, 30 May 2009 14:00:18 +0100 Subject: Add core support for ARMv6/v7 big-endian Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian (byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support: - setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and user threads - big-endian page table walking - REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault processing as they are still little-endian format - Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to little-endian Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas --- arch/arm/mm/Kconfig | 14 ++++++++++++++ arch/arm/mm/abort-ev6.S | 3 +++ arch/arm/mm/proc-v6.S | 3 +++ arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S | 3 +++ 4 files changed, 23 insertions(+) (limited to 'arch/arm/mm') diff --git a/arch/arm/mm/Kconfig b/arch/arm/mm/Kconfig index 76bbcde049b..a25f34bd99d 100644 --- a/arch/arm/mm/Kconfig +++ b/arch/arm/mm/Kconfig @@ -639,6 +639,20 @@ config CPU_BIG_ENDIAN port must properly enable any big-endian related features of your chipset/board/processor. +config CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 + bool + depends on CPU_BIG_ENDIAN + default CPU_V6 || CPU_V7 + help + Support for the BE-8 (big-endian) mode on ARMv6 and ARMv7 processors. + +config CPU_ENDIAN_BE32 + bool + depends on CPU_BIG_ENDIAN + default !CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 + help + Support for the BE-32 (big-endian) mode on pre-ARMv6 processors. + config CPU_HIGH_VECTOR depends on !MMU && CPU_CP15 && !CPU_ARM740T bool "Select the High exception vector" diff --git a/arch/arm/mm/abort-ev6.S b/arch/arm/mm/abort-ev6.S index 6f7e70907e4..f332df7f0d3 100644 --- a/arch/arm/mm/abort-ev6.S +++ b/arch/arm/mm/abort-ev6.S @@ -37,6 +37,9 @@ ENTRY(v6_early_abort) movne pc, lr do_thumb_abort ldreq r3, [r2] @ read aborted ARM instruction +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 + reveq r3, r3 +#endif do_ldrd_abort tst r3, #1 << 20 @ L = 0 -> write orreq r1, r1, #1 << 11 @ yes. diff --git a/arch/arm/mm/proc-v6.S b/arch/arm/mm/proc-v6.S index 087e239704d..524ddae9259 100644 --- a/arch/arm/mm/proc-v6.S +++ b/arch/arm/mm/proc-v6.S @@ -170,6 +170,9 @@ __v6_setup: #endif /* CONFIG_MMU */ adr r5, v6_crval ldmia r5, {r5, r6} +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 + orr r6, r6, #1 << 25 @ big-endian page tables +#endif mrc p15, 0, r0, c1, c0, 0 @ read control register bic r0, r0, r5 @ clear bits them orr r0, r0, r6 @ set them diff --git a/arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S b/arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S index 0a8ffd3c03f..4f8486475a7 100644 --- a/arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S +++ b/arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S @@ -253,6 +253,9 @@ __v7_setup: mcr p15, 0, r6, c10, c2, 1 @ write NMRR adr r5, v7_crval ldmia r5, {r5, r6} +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 + orr r6, r6, #1 << 25 @ big-endian page tables +#endif mrc p15, 0, r0, c1, c0, 0 @ read control register bic r0, r0, r5 @ clear bits them orr r0, r0, r6 @ set them -- cgit v1.2.3
