ARC: build: Try to guess GCC variant of cross compiler

2025-01-09T12:25:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit 824927e88456331c7a999fdf5d9d27923b619590 ] ARC GCC compiler is packaged starting from Fedora 39i and the GCC variant of cross compile tools has arc-linux-gnu- prefix and not arc-linux-. This is causing that CROSS_COMPILE variable is left unset. This change allows builds without need to supply CROSS_COMPILE argument if distro package is used. Before this change: $ make -j 128 ARCH=arc W=1 drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/ gcc: warning: ‘-mcpu=’ is deprecated; use ‘-mtune=’ or ‘-march=’ instead gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option ‘-mmedium-calls’ gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option ‘-mlock’ gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option ‘-munaligned-access’ [1] https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/cross-gcc/gcc-arc-linux-gnu/index.html Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

ARC: build: move symlink creation to arch/arc/Makefile to avoid race

2021-01-19T17:27:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit c5e6ae563c802c4d828d42e134af64004db2e58c ] If you run 'make uImage uImage.gz' with the parallel option, uImage.gz will be created by two threads simultaneously. This is because arch/arc/Makefile does not specify the dependency between uImage and uImage.gz. Hence, GNU Make assumes they can be built in parallel. One thread descends into arch/arc/boot/ to create uImage, and another to create uImage.gz. Please notice the same log is displayed twice in the following steps: $ export CROSS_COMPILE= $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig $ make -j$(nproc) ARCH=arc uImage uImage.gz [ snip ] LD vmlinux SORTTAB vmlinux SYSMAP System.map OBJCOPY arch/arc/boot/vmlinux.bin OBJCOPY arch/arc/boot/vmlinux.bin GZIP arch/arc/boot/vmlinux.bin.gz GZIP arch/arc/boot/vmlinux.bin.gz UIMAGE arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz UIMAGE arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz Image Name: Linux-5.10.0-rc4-00003-g62f23044 Created: Sun Nov 22 02:52:26 2020 Image Type: ARC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2109376 Bytes = 2059.94 KiB = 2.01 MiB Load Address: 80000000 Entry Point: 80004000 Image arch/arc/boot/uImage is ready Image Name: Linux-5.10.0-rc4-00003-g62f23044 Created: Sun Nov 22 02:52:26 2020 Image Type: ARC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2815455 Bytes = 2749.47 KiB = 2.69 MiB Load Address: 80000000 Entry Point: 80004000 This is a race between the two threads trying to write to the same file arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz. This is a potential problem that can generate a broken file. I fixed a similar problem for ARM by commit 3939f3345050 ("ARM: 8418/1: add boot image dependencies to not generate invalid images"). I highly recommend to avoid such build rules that cause a race condition. Move the uImage rule to arch/arc/Makefile. Another strangeness is that arch/arc/boot/Makefile compares the timestamps between $(obj)/uImage and $(obj)/uImage.*: $(obj)/uImage: $(obj)/uImage.$(suffix-y) @ln -sf $(notdir $<) $@ @echo ' Image $@ is ready' This does not work as expected since $(obj)/uImage is a symlink. The symlink should be created in a phony target rule. I used $(kecho) instead of echo to suppress the message 'Image arch/arc/boot/uImage is ready' when the -s option is given.

ARC: build: add boot_targets to PHONY

2021-01-19T17:27:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0cfccb3c04934cdef42ae26042139f16e805b5f7 ] The top-level boot_targets (uImage and uImage.*) should be phony targets. They just let Kbuild descend into arch/arc/boot/ and create files there. If a file exists in the top directory with the same name, the boot image will not be created. You can confirm it by the following steps: $ export CROSS_COMPILE= $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig all # vmlinux will be built $ touch uImage.gz $ make ARCH=arc uImage.gz CALL scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CHK include/generated/compile.h # arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz is not created Specify the targets as PHONY to fix this.

ARC: build: add uImage.lzma to the top-level target

2021-01-19T17:27:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit f2712ec76a5433e5ec9def2bd52a95df1f96d050 ] arch/arc/boot/Makefile supports uImage.lzma, but you cannot do 'make uImage.lzma' because the corresponding target is missing in arch/arc/Makefile. Add it. I also changed the assignment operator '+=' to ':=' since this is the only place where we expect this variable to be set.

ARC: build: remove non-existing bootpImage from KBUILD_IMAGE

2021-01-19T17:27:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9836720911cfec25d3fbdead1c438bf87e0f2841 ] The deb-pkg builds for ARCH=arc fail. $ export CROSS_COMPILE= $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig $ make ARCH=arc bindeb-pkg SORTTAB vmlinux SYSMAP System.map MODPOST Module.symvers make KERNELRELEASE=5.10.0-rc4 ARCH=arc KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION=2 -f ./Makefile intdeb-pkg sh ./scripts/package/builddeb cp: cannot stat 'arch/arc/boot/bootpImage': No such file or directory make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:87: intdeb-pkg] Error 1 make[3]: *** [Makefile:1527: intdeb-pkg] Error 2 make[2]: *** [debian/rules:13: binary-arch] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2 make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:83: bindeb-pkg] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:1527: bindeb-pkg] Error 2 The reason is obvious; arch/arc/Makefile sets $(boot)/bootpImage as the default image, but there is no rule to build it. Remove the meaningless KBUILD_IMAGE assignment so it will fallback to the default vmlinux. With this change, you can build the deb package. I removed the 'bootpImage' target as well. At best, it provides 'make bootpImage' as an alias of 'make vmlinux', but I do not see much sense in doing so. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

ARC: build: allow users to specify -mcpu

2020-06-16T22:07:23+00:00

kernel build system used to add -mcpu for each ARC ISA as default. These days there are versions and varaints of ARC HS cores some of which have specific -mcpu options to fine tune / optimize generated code. So allow users/external build systems to specify their own -mcpu This will be used in future patches for HSDK-4xD board support which uses specific -mcpu to utilize dual issue scheduling of the core.

ARC: merge HAPS-HS with nSIM-HS configs

2019-10-28T19:12:31+00:00

Starting from nSIM 2019.06 is possible to use DW UART instead of ARC UART. That allows us to merge "nsim_hs" with "haps_hs" and "nsim_hs_smp" with "haps_hs_smp" with minor changes which were done in previous commits. We eliminate nsim_hs_defconfig and nsim_hs_smp_defconfig and leave haps_hs_defconfig and haps_hs_smp_defconfig which can be used on HAPS / nSIM / ZEBU / QEMU platforms without additional changes in Linux kernel. For nSIM we should now use UART property values "-prop=nsim_mem-dev=uart0,kind=dwuart,base=0xf0000000" instead of previously used "-prop=nsim_mem-dev=uart0,base=0xc0fc1000" "use_connect" and "irq" values of UART property remains untouched.

kbuild,arc: add CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3 for ARC

2019-09-04T01:01:17+00:00

arch/arc/Makefile overrides -O2 with -O3. This is the only user of ARCH_CFLAGS. There is no user of ARCH_CPPFLAGS or ARCH_AFLAGS. My plan is to remove ARCH_{CPP,A,C}FLAGS after refactoring the ARC Makefile. Currently, ARC has no way to enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized because both -O3 and -Os disable it. Enabling it will be useful for compile-testing. This commit allows allmodconfig (, which defaults to -O2) to enable it. Add CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE_O3=y to all the defconfig files in arch/arc/configs/ in order to keep the current config settings. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Vineet Gupta
