powerpc/ftrace: Use $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) when disabling ftrace

2016-03-07T03:53:55+00:00

Rather than open-coding -pg whereever we want to disable ftrace, use the existing $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) variable. This has the advantage that it will work in future when we use a different set of flags to enable ftrace. Signed-off-by: Torsten Duwe Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc: enable UBSAN support

2016-01-21T01:09:18+00:00

This hooks up UBSAN support for PowerPC. So far it's found some interesting cases where we don't properly sanitise input to shifts, including one in our futex handling. Nothing critical, but interesting and worth fixing.

powerpc/ftrace: add powerpc timebase as a trace clock source

2015-08-06T06:36:23+00:00

Add a new powerpc-specific trace clock using the timebase register, similar to x86-tsc. This gives us - a fast, monotonic, hardware clock source for trace entries, and - a clock that can be used to correlate events across cpus as well as across hypervisor and guests.

of: clean-up unnecessary libfdt include paths

2015-06-05T01:16:47+00:00

With the libfdt include fixups to use "" instead of <> in the latest dtc import in commit 4760597 (scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version 9d3649bd3be245c9), it is no longer necessary to add explicit include paths to use libfdt. Remove these across the kernel.

powerpc/vdso: Disable building the 32-bit VDSO on little endian

2015-05-11T10:01:02+00:00

The only little endian configuration we support is ppc64le. As such if we're building little endian we don't need a 32-bit VDSO, because there is no 32-bit userspace. This patch is a fairly ugly mess of #ifdefs, but is the minimal logic required to disable the 32-bit VDSO. We can hopefully clean up the result in future with some further refactoring.

powerpc: kill PPC_OF

2015-03-17T09:04:32+00:00

We have set CONFIG_PPC_OF to always 'y' in commit 0a498d96a332 ("powerpc: set CONFIG_PPC_OF=y always for ARCH=powerpc") nine years ago. And the arch/ppc also has gone away for many years. The OF functionality was also moved to a common place and be used by many archs. So it does make no sense to keep such a option in the current kernel. Just kill it.

powerpc: Separate ppc32 symbol exports into ppc_ksyms_32.c

Simplify things considerably by moving all the ppc32 specific symbol exports into its own file. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc: Remove platforms/wsp and associated pieces

2014-06-11T06:35:38+00:00

__attribute__ ((unused)) WSP is the last user of CONFIG_PPC_A2, so we remove that as well. Although CONFIG_PPC_ICSWX still exists, it's no longer selectable for any Book3E platform, so we can remove the code in mmu-book3e.h that depended on it.

powerpc: use libfdt accessors for header data

2014-04-30T05:59:18+00:00

With libfdt support, we can take advantage of helper accessors in libfdt for accessing the FDT header data. This makes the code more readable and makes the FDT blob structure more opaque to the kernel. This also prepares for removing struct boot_param_header completely.
