[ Upstream commit 87c4e1459e80bf65066f864c762ef4dc932fad4b ]

After commit d5c8d6e0fa61 ("kbuild: Update assembler calls to use proper
flags and language target"), which updated as-instr to use the
'assembler-with-cpp' language option, the Kbuild version of as-instr
always fails internally for arch/arm with

  &lt;command-line&gt;: fatal error: asm/unified.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.

because '-include' flags are now taken into account by the compiler
driver and as-instr does not have '$(LINUXINCLUDE)', so unified.h is not
found.

This went unnoticed at the time of the Kbuild change because the last
use of as-instr in Kbuild that arch/arm could reach was removed in 5.7
by commit 541ad0150ca4 ("arm: Remove 32bit KVM host support") but a
stable backport of the Kbuild change to before that point exposed this
potential issue if one were to be reintroduced.

Follow the general pattern of '-include' paths throughout the tree and
make unified.h absolute using '$(srctree)' to ensure KBUILD_AFLAGS can
be used independently.

Add compulsory device tree support to the Cirrus ep93xx ARMv4 platform.

- select PINCTRL_EP93xx
- select COMMON_CLK_EP93XX, as clock driver moved out of platform code
- select ARCH_HAS_RESET_CONTROLLER

Select ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT to update device tree with information
about memory passed from bootloader.

We have to leave all MACH options as they are used for board checking
before decomp, to turn off watchdog and ethernet DMA.

ARM provides an equivalent to the common kernel-mode FPU API, but in a
different header and using different function names.  Add a wrapper
header, and export CFLAGS adjustments as found in lib/raid6/Makefile.

Three remaining Qualcomm platforms have special handling of the
TEXT_OFFSET to reserve the memory at the beginnig of the system RAM, see
the commit 9e775ad19f52 ("ARM: 7012/1: Set proper TEXT_OFFSET for newer
MSMs"). This is required for older platforms like IPQ40xx, MSM8x60,
MSM8960 and APQ8064 and is compatible with other 32-bit Qualcomm
platforms.

Having a platform need a mach-* directory should be seen as a negative,
it means the platform needs special non-standard handling. ARM64 support
does not allow mach-* directories at all. While we may not get to that
given all the non-standard architectures we support, we should still try
to get as close as we can and reduce the number of mach directories.

The mach-nspire/ directory and files, provides just one "feature":
having the kernel print the machine name if the DTB does not also contain
a "model" string (which they always do). To reduce the number of mach-*
directories let's do without that feature and remove this directory.

NOTE: The default l2c_aux_mask is now ~0 but these devices never have
this type of cache controller so this is safe.

It also seems there was a copy/paste error and the "MEDIATEK_DT"
name was re-used in the DT_MACHINE_START macro. This may have caused
conflicts if this was built in a multi-arch configuration.

<title>kbuild: unify vdso_install rules</title>
<updated>2023-10-28T12:09:02+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Masahiro Yamada</name>
<email>masahiroy@kernel.org</email>
</author>
<published>2023-10-14T10:54:35+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=56769ba4b297a629148eb24d554aef72d1ddfd9e'/>
<id>urn:sha1:56769ba4b297a629148eb24d554aef72d1ddfd9e</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, there is no standard implementation for vdso_install,
leading to various issues:

 1. Code duplication

    Many architectures duplicate similar code just for copying files
    to the install destination.

    Some architectures (arm, sparc, x86) create build-id symlinks,
    introducing more code duplication.

 2. Unintended updates of in-tree build artifacts

    The vdso_install rule depends on the vdso files to install.
    It may update in-tree build artifacts. This can be problematic,
    as explained in commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make
    "make install" not depend on vmlinux").

 3. Broken code in some architectures

    Makefile code is often copied from one architecture to another
    without proper adaptation.

    'make vdso_install' for parisc does not work.

    'make vdso_install' for s390 installs vdso64, but not vdso32.

To address these problems, this commit introduces a generic vdso_install
rule.

Architectures that support vdso_install need to define vdso-install-y
in arch/*/Makefile. vdso-install-y lists the files to install.

For example, arch/x86/Makefile looks like this:

  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_64)           += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI)      += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdsox32.so.dbg
  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_32)           += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION)   += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg

These files will be installed to $(MODLIB)/vdso/ with the .dbg suffix,
if exists, stripped away.

vdso-install-y can optionally take the second field after the colon
separator. This is needed because some architectures install a vdso
file as a different base name.

The following is a snippet from arch/arm64/Makefile.

  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO)      += arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so.dbg:vdso32.so

This will rename vdso.so.dbg to vdso32.so during installation. If such
architectures change their implementation so that the base names match,
this workaround will go away.
