[CRIS] Remove links from CRIS build

2008-10-31T22:37:57+00:00

Remove the links to architecture and machine dependent directories (boot, lib, drivers, arch, mach) The links were created and used mostly from the arch/cris/Makefile, so why not dispense with them altogether? Changed $(ARCH) to "cris" in Makefile, it is easier to read this way. The CRISv32 head.S common files for the kernel and compressed images needed to be modified to use ifdefs instead of using the now removed mach link. Since there are only two versions, this is not a huge loss in readability. The link to vmlinux.lds.S is also replaced with a merged version which uses ifdefs to select the correct layout. System.map before and after are identical. Signed-off-by: Jesper Nilsson Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg

CRIS v32: Fix startup oops and replace hardcoded pagesize in vmlinux.lds.S

2008-02-08T10:06:36+00:00

- Move alignment of init data to page size outside define CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD This avoids oops due to memory on the same page as init data being freed. - Change hardcoded page size to use macro from asm/page.h - Add reserved memory via CONFIG_ETRAX_VMEM_SIZE. - Use available defines for TEXT_TEXT and INITCALLS. - Cleanup whitespace.

all archs: consolidate init and exit sections in vmlinux.lds.h

2008-01-28T22:21:17+00:00

This patch consolidate all definitions of .init.text, .init.data and .exit.text, .exit.data section definitions in the generic vmlinux.lds.h. This is a preparational patch - alone it does not buy us much good. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

define new percpu interface for shared data

2007-07-19T17:04:44+00:00

per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus. One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve this is not clean. This patch: Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

[PATCH] x86: Allow percpu variables to be page-aligned

2007-05-02T17:27:12+00:00

Let's allow page-alignment in general for per-cpu data (wanted by Xen, and Ingo suggested KVM as well). Because larger alignments can use more room, we increase the max per-cpu memory to 64k rather than 32k: it's getting a little tight.

[PATCH] disable init/initramfs.c: architectures

2007-02-11T18:51:25+00:00

Update all arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S to not include space for initramfs when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRAMFS is not selected. This saves another 4 kbytes on most platfoms (some reserve PAGE_SIZE for initramfs). Signed-off-by: Jean-Paul Saman Cc: Al Viro Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
