      ARM: smp: add support for per-task stack canaries · 189af465
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      
      On ARM, we currently only change the value of the stack canary when
      switching tasks if the kernel was built for UP. On SMP kernels, this
      is impossible since the stack canary value is obtained via a global
      symbol reference, which means
      a) all running tasks on all CPUs must use the same value
      b) we can only modify the value when no kernel stack frames are live
         on any CPU, which is effectively never.
      
      So instead, use a GCC plugin to add a RTL pass that replaces each
      reference to the address of the __stack_chk_guard symbol with an
      expression that produces the address of the 'stack_canary' field
      that is added to struct thread_info. This way, each task will use
      its own randomized value.

      kbuild: consolidate Devicetree dtb build rules · 37c8a5fa
      Rob Herring authored
      
      There is nothing arch specific about building dtb files other than their
      location under /arch/*/boot/dts/. Keeping each arch aligned is a pain.
      The dependencies and supported targets are all slightly different.
      Also, a cross-compiler for each arch is needed, but really the host
      compiler preprocessor is perfectly fine for building dtbs. Move the
      build rules to a common location and remove the arch specific ones. This
      is done in a single step to avoid warnings about overriding rules.
      
      The build dependencies had been a mixture of 'scripts' and/or 'prepare'.
      These pull in several dependencies some of which need a target compiler
      (specifically devicetable-offsets.h) and aren't needed to build dtbs.
      All that is really needed is dtc, so adjust the dependencies to only be
      dtc.
      
      This change enables support 'dtbs_install' on some arches which were
      missing the target.

      ARM: 8723/2: always assume the "unified" syntax for assembly code · 75fea300
      Nicolas Pitre authored
      
      The GNU assembler has implemented the "unified syntax" parsing since
      2005. This "unified" syntax is required when the kernel is built in
      Thumb2 mode. However the "unified" syntax is a mixed bag of features,
      including not requiring a `#' prefix with immediate operands. This leads
      to situations where some code builds just fine in Thumb2 mode and fails
      to build in ARM mode if that prefix is missing. This behavior
      discrepancy makes build tests less valuable, forcing both ARM and Thumb2
      builds for proper coverage.
      
      Let's "fix" this issue by always using the "unified" syntax for both ARM
      and Thumb2 mode. Given that the documented minimum binutils version that
      properly builds the kernel is version 2.20 released in 2010, we can
      assume that any toolchain capable of building the latest kernel is also
      "unified syntax" capable.
      
      Whith this, a bunch of macros used to mask some differences between both
      syntaxes can be removed, with the side effect of making LTO easier.

      ARM: 8716/1: pass endianness info to sparse · ff0c6eec
      Luc Van Oostenryck authored
      
      ARM depends on the macros '__ARMEL__' & '__ARMEB__' being defined
      or not to correctly select or define endian-specific macros,
      structures or pieces of code.
      
      These macros are predefined by the compiler but sparse knows
      nothing about them and thus may pre-process files differently
      from what gcc would.
      
      Fix this by passing '-D__ARMEL__' or '-D__ARMEB__' to sparse,
      depending on the endianness of the kernel, like defined by GCC.
      
      Note: In most case it won't change anything since most ARMs use
            little-endian (but an allyesconfig would use big-endian!).

      ARM: convert to generated system call tables · 96a8fae0
      Russell King authored
      
      Convert ARM to use a similar mechanism to x86 to generate the unistd.h
      system call numbers and the various kernel system call tables.  This
      means that rather than having to edit three places (asm/unistd.h for
      the total number of system calls, uapi/asm/unistd.h for the system call
      numbers, and arch/arm/kernel/calls.S for the call table) we have only
      one place to edit, making the process much more simple.
      
      The scripts have knowledge of the table padding requirements, so there's
      no need to worry about __NR_syscalls not fitting within the immediate
      constant field of ALU instructions anymore.

      ARM: hide mach-*/ include for ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M · de8a06f6
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      
      The machine specific header files are exported for traditional
      platforms, but not for the ones that use ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM, as
      they could conflict with one another.
      
      In case of ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M, we end up also exporting them,
      but that appears to be a mistake, and we should treat it the
      same way as ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM here.
      
      'make W=1' warns about this because it passes -Wmissing-includes
      to gcc and the directories are not actually present.

      ARM: 8576/1: avoid duplicating "Kernel: arch/arm/boot/*Image is ready" · c6bbfbb7
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      Commit 3939f334
      
       ("ARM: 8418/1: add boot image dependencies to
      not generate invalid images") fixed bad image generation for the
      parallel building, but as its side effect, Kbuild now descends into
      arch/arm/boot/ again and again, duplicating the log messages.
      It looks clumsy, so let's display the same message only once.
      
      This commit moves the log rules from arch/arm/boot/Makefile to
      arch/arm/Makefile.  I did not delete them completely because *Image
      are the final targets that users are interested in.
      
      Without this commit, the log of incremental build is like follows:
      
      $ make ARCH=arm UIMAGE_LOADADDR=0x80208000 uImage
        CHK     include/config/kernel.release
        CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
        CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
        CHK     include/generated/bounds.h
        CHK     include/generated/timeconst.h
        CHK     include/generated/asm-offsets.h
        CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh

        Kernel: arch/arm/boot/zImage is ready
        Image arch/arm/boot/uImage is ready
      
      With this commit, it will look like follows:
      
      $ make ARCH=arm UIMAGE_LOADADDR=0x80208000 uImage
