powerpc: Drop -me200 addition to build flags

2020-12-16T09:58:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit e02152ba2810f7c88cb54e71cda096268dfa9241 ] Currently a build with CONFIG_E200=y will fail with: Error: invalid switch -me200 Error: unrecognized option -me200 Upstream binutils has never supported an -me200 option. Presumably it was supported at some point by either a fork or Freescale internal binutils. We can't support code that we can't even build test, so drop the addition of -me200 to the build flags, so we can at least build with CONFIG_E200=y.

powerpc: Suppress .eh_frame generation

2020-04-01T03:30:51+00:00

GCC v8 defaults to enabling -fasynchronous-unwind-tables due to https://gcc.gnu.org/r259298, which results in .eh_frame section being generated. This results in additional disk usage by the build, as well as the kernel modules. Since the kernel has no use for this, this section is discarded. Add -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables to KBUILD_CFLAGS to suppress generation of .eh_frame section. Note that our VDSOs need .eh_frame, but are not affected by this change since our VDSO code are all in assembly. Reported-by: Rasmus Villemoes Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

powerpc: Drop -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm

2020-04-01T03:30:51+00:00

The original commit/discussion adding -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm refers to R_PPC64_REL32 relocations not being handled by our module loader: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20090224065112.GA6690@bombadil.infradead.org However, that is now handled thanks to commit 9f751b82b491d ("powerpc/module: Add support for R_PPC64_REL32 relocations"). So, drop this flag from our Makefile. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

powerpc/Makefile: Mark phony targets as PHONY

2020-03-04T11:44:27+00:00

Some of our phony targets are not marked as such. This can lead to confusing errors, eg: $ make clean $ touch install $ make install make: 'install' is up to date. $ Fix it by adding them to the PHONY variable which is marked phony in the top-level Makefile, or in scripts/Makefile.build for the boot Makefile.

powerpc: Don't add -mabi= flags when building with Clang

2019-11-25T10:45:43+00:00

When building pseries_defconfig, building vdso32 errors out: error: unknown target ABI 'elfv1' This happens because -m32 in clang changes the target to 32-bit, which does not allow the ABI to be changed. Commit 4dc831aa8813 ("powerpc: Fix compiling a BE kernel with a powerpc64le toolchain") added these flags to fix building big endian kernels with a little endian GCC. Clang doesn't need -mabi because the target triple controls the default value. -mlittle-endian and -mbig-endian manipulate the triple into either powerpc64-* or powerpc64le-*, which properly sets the default ABI. Adding a debug print out in the PPC64TargetInfo constructor after line 383 above shows this: $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null - Default ABI: elfv1 $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null - Default ABI: elfv2 $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mbig-endian -o /dev/null - Default ABI: elfv1 $ echo | ./clang -E --target=powerpc64le-linux -mlittle-endian -o /dev/null - Default ABI: elfv2 Don't specify -mabi when building with clang to avoid the build error with -m32 and not change any code generation. -mcall-aixdesc is not an implemented flag in clang so it can be safely excluded as well, see commit 238abecde8ad ("powerpc: Don't use gcc specific options on clang"). pseries_defconfig successfully builds after this patch and powernv_defconfig and ppc44x_defconfig don't regress.

powerpc/configs: Rename foo_basic_defconfig to foo_base.config

2019-10-28T10:54:16+00:00

We have several "defconfigs" that are not actually full defconfigs they are just a base set of options which are then merged with other fragments to produce a working defconfig. The most obvious example is corenet_basic_defconfig which only contains one symbol CONFIG_CORENET_GENERIC=y. And in fact if you build it as a "defconfig" that one symbol ends up undefined, because its prerequisites are missing. There is also mpc85xx_base_defconfig which doesn't actually enable CONFIG_PPC_85xx. To avoid confusion, rename these config fragments to "foo_base.config" to make it clearer that they are not full defconfigs and are instaed just fragments that are used to generate real defconfigs.

powerpc: remove meaningless KBUILD_ARFLAGS addition

2019-08-22T13:11:48+00:00

The KBUILD_ARFLAGS addition in arch/powerpc/Makefile has never worked in a useful way because it is always overridden by the following code in the top Makefile: # use the deterministic mode of AR if available KBUILD_ARFLAGS := $(call ar-option,D) The code in the top Makefile was added in 2011, by commit 40df759e2b9e ("kbuild: Fix build with binutils <= 2.19"). The KBUILD_ARFLAGS addition for ppc has always been dead code from the beginning. Nobody has reported a problem since 43c9127d94d6 ("powerpc: Add option to use thin archives"), so this code was unneeded.
