* powerpc: Put the gpr save/restore functions in their own sectionStephen Rothwell2012-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | This allows the linker to know that calls to them do not need to switch TOC and stop errors like the following when linking large configurations: powerpc64-linux-ld: drivers/built-in.o: In function `.gpiochip_is_requested': (.text+0x4): sibling call optimization to `_savegpr0_29' does not allow automatic multiple TOCs; recompile with -mminimal-toc or -fno-optimize-sibling-calls, or make `_savegpr0_29' extern Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc: Fix module building for gcc 4.5 and 64 bitStephen Rothwell2010-07-08
| | | | | | | | Gcc 4.5 is now generating out of line register save and restore in the function prefix and postfix when we use -Os. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* [POWERPC] Fix -Os kernel builds with newer gcc versionsKumar Gala2008-06-16
GCC 4.4.x looks to be adding support for generating out-of-line register saves/restores based on: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-04/msg01678.html This breaks the kernel if we enable CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. To fix this we add the use the save/restore code from gcc and simplified it down for our needs (integer only). Additionally, we have to link this code into each module. The other solution was to add EXPORT_SYMBOL() which meant going through the trampoline which seemed nonsensical for these out-of-line routines. Finally, we add some checks to prom_init_check.sh to ignore the out-of-line save/restore functions.
