When you clean the build tree for ARCH=arm, you may see the following
error message from 'nm' command:

$ make -j24 ARCH=arm clean
  CLEAN   arch/arm/crypto
  CLEAN   arch/arm/kernel
  CLEAN   arch/arm/mach-at91
  CLEAN   arch/arm/mach-omap2
  CLEAN   arch/arm/vdso
  CLEAN   certs
  CLEAN   lib
  CLEAN   usr
  CLEAN   net/wireless
  CLEAN   drivers/firmware/efi/libstub
nm: 'arch/arm/boot/compressed/../../../../vmlinux': No such file
/bin/sh: 1: arithmetic expression: expecting primary: " "
  CLEAN   arch/arm/boot/compressed
  CLEAN   drivers/scsi
  CLEAN   drivers/tty/vt
  CLEAN   arch/arm/boot
  CLEAN   vmlinux.symvers modules.builtin modules.builtin.modinfo

Even if you rerun the same command, the error message will not be
shown despite vmlinux is already gone.

To reproduce it, the parallel option -j is needed. Single thread
cleaning always executes 'archclean', 'vmlinuxclean' in this order,
so vmlinux still exists when arch/arm/boot/compressed/ is cleaned.

Looking at arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile does not help understand
the reason of the error message. Both KBSS_SZ and LDFLAGS_vmlinux are
assigned with '=' operator, hence, they are not expanded unless used.
Obviously, 'make clean' does not use them.

In fact, the root cause exists in the top Makefile:

  export LDFLAGS_vmlinux

Since LDFLAGS_vmlinux is an exported variable, LDFLAGS_vmlinux in
arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile is expanded when scripts/Makefile.clean
has a command to execute. This is why the error message shows up only
when there exist build artifacts in arch/arm/boot/compressed/.

Adding 'unexport LDFLAGS_vmlinux' to arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
will fix it as far as ARCH=arm is concerned, but I think the proper fix
is to get rid of 'export LDFLAGS_vmlinux' from the top Makefile.

LDFLAGS_vmlinux in the top Makefile contains linker flags for the top
vmlinux. LDFLAGS_vmlinux in arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile is for
arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux. They just happen to have the same
variable name, but are used for different purposes. Stop shadowing
LDFLAGS_vmlinux.

This commit passes LDFLAGS_vmlinux to scripts/link-vmlinux.sh via a
command line parameter instead of via an environment variable. LD and
KBUILD_LDFLAGS are exported, but I did the same for consistency. Anyway,
they must be included in cmd_link-vmlinux to allow if_changed to detect
the changes in LD or KBUILD_LDFLAGS.

The following Makefiles are not affected:

  arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/h8300/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/nios2/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/parisc/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/s390/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile
  arch/sh/boot/romimage/Makefile
  arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile

They use ':=' or '=' to clear the LDFLAGS_vmlinux inherited from the
top Makefile.

We need to take a closer look at the impact to unicore32 and xtensa.

arch/unicore32/boot/compressed/Makefile only uses '+=' operator for
LDFLAGS_vmlinux. So, the decompressor previously inherited the linker
flags from the top Makefile.

However, commit 70fac51feaf2 ("unicore32 additional architecture files:
boot process") was merged before commit 1f2bfbd00e46 ("kbuild: link of
vmlinux moved to a script"). So, I rather consider this is a bug fix of
1f2bfbd00e46.

arch/xtensa/boot/boot-elf/Makefile is also affected, but this is also
considered a fix for the same reason. It did not inherit LDFLAGS_vmlinux
when commit 4bedea945451 ("[PATCH] xtensa: Architecture support for
Tensilica Xtensa Part 2") was merged. I deleted $(LDFLAGS_vmlinux),
which is now empty.

<title>xtensa: add boot subdirectories build artifacts to 'targets'</title>

Xtensa always rebuilds the following even if nothing in the source code
has been changed. Passing V=2 shows the reason.

  AS      arch/xtensa/boot/boot-elf/bootstrap.o - due to bootstrap.o not in $(targets)
  LDS     arch/xtensa/boot/boot-elf/boot.lds - due to boot.lds not in $(targets)

They are built by if_changed(_dep). Add them to 'targets' so .*.cmd files
are included.

uImage and xipImage are always rebuilt in the xtensa kernel build
process. Add them to 'targets' to avoid that.

vmlinux.bin and vmlinux.bin.gz are always rebuilt in the kernel build
process. Add them to 'targets' and move them to the boot subdirectory
where their rules are. Update make rules that refer to them.

arch/xtensa/boot/Makefile does not define ccflags-y at all.

Please do not export ccflags-y because it is meant to be effective

<title>xtensa: add XIP kernel support</title>

XIP (eXecute In Place) kernel image is the image that can be run
directly from ROM, using RAM only for writable data.

XIP xtensa kernel differs from regular xtensa kernel in the following
ways:
- it has exception/IRQ vectors merged into text section. No vectors
  relocation takes place at kernel startup.
- .data/.bss location must be specified in the kernel configuration,
  its content is copied there in the _startup function.
- .init.text is merged with the rest of text and is executed from ROM.
- when MMU is used the virtual address where the kernel will be mapped
  must be specified in the kernel configuration. It may be in the KSEG
  or in the KIO, __pa macro is adjusted to be able to handle both.

virt device tree incorrectly uses 0xf0000000 on both sides of PCI IO
ports address space mapping. This results in incorrect port address
assignment in PCI IO BARs and subsequent crash on attempt to access
them. Use 0 as base address in PCI IO ports address space.
