| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes when configuring need to disable some unused item, but the item is selected by many other items, it's hard to find the real dependency which selected it, This patch add every symbol's value accompanied to make it possible to find the real dependency easily.

* kbuild: save ARCH & CROSS_COMPILE when building a kernelSam Ravnborg2009-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When building a kernel for a different architecture kbuild requires the user always to specify ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE on the command-line. We use the asm symlink to detect if user forgets to specify the correct ARCH value - but that symlink is about to die. And we do now want to loose this check. This patch save the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE in two files named: include/generated/kernel.arch include/generated/kernel.cross The settings are saved during "make *config" time and always read. If user try to change the settings we error out. This works both for plain builds and for O=... builds. So now you can do: $ mkdir sparc64 $ make O=sparc64 ARCH=sparc64 CROSS_COMPILE=sparc64-linux- defconfig $ cd sparc64 $ make Notice that you no longer need to tell kbuild the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE when you type make in the output directory. Likewise for plain builds where you do not use O=... Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>
* kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel scriptSam Ravnborg2009-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL to select a custom installkernel script when running make: make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install With this patch we are now more consistent across different architectures - they did not all support use of CROSS_COMPILE. The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change just because we change toolchain. The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no longer be installable. [Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint] This patch undos what Ian did in commit: 0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46 ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh") The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes looks obvious.

| * x86: Distangle ioapic and i8259Thomas Gleixner2009-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The proposed Moorestown support patches use an extra feature flag mechanism to make the ioapic work w/o an i8259. There is a much simpler solution. Most i8259 specific functions are already called dependend on the irq number less than NR_IRQS_LEGACY. Replacing that constant by a read_mostly variable which can be set to 0 by the platform setup code allows us to achieve the same without any special feature flags. That trivial change allows us to proceed with MRST w/o doing a full blown overhaul of the ioapic code which would delay MRST unduly. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

| * x86: Add early platform detectionThomas Gleixner2009-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Platforms like Moorestown require early setup and want to avoid the call to reserve_ebda_region. The x86_init override is too late when the MRST detection happens in setup_arch. Move the default i386 x86_init overrides and the call to reserve_ebda_region into a separate function which is called as the default of a switch case depending on the hardware_subarch id in boot params. This allows us to add a case for MRST and let MRST have its own early setup function. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
| * x86: Move tsc_init to late_time_initThomas Gleixner2009-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We do not need the TSC before late_time_init. Move the tsc_init to the late time init code so we can also utilize HPET for calibration (which we claimed to do but never did except in some older kernel version). This also helps Moorestown to calibrate the TSC with the AHBT timer which needs to be initialized in late_time_init like HPET. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
| * x86: Move tsc_calibration to x86_init_opsThomas Gleixner2009-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TSC calibration is modified by the vmware hypervisor and paravirt by separate means. Moorestown wants to add its own calibration routine as well. So make calibrate_tsc a proper x86_init_ops function and override it by paravirt or by the early setup of the vmware hypervisor. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

| * x86: Simplify timer_ack magic in time_32.cThomas Gleixner2009-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let the compiler optimize the timer_ack magic away in the 32bit timer interrupt and put the same code into time_64.c. It's optimized out for CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC on 32bit and for 64bit because timer_ack is const 0 in both cases. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The timer init code is convoluted with several quirks and the paravirt timer chooser. Figuring out which code path is actually taken is not for the faint hearted.
