vmlinux.lds.h: Replace RW_DATA_SECTION with RW_DATA

2019-11-04T14:57:41Z

Rename RW_DATA_SECTION to RW_DATA. (Calling this a "section" is a lie, since it's multiple sections and section flags cannot be applied to the macro.)

vmlinux.lds.h: Move NOTES into RO_DATA

2019-11-04T14:34:41Z

The .notes section should be non-executable read-only data. As such, move it to the RO_DATA macro instead of being per-architecture defined.

nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus

2016-10-08T01:46:30Z

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN". We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new .cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section. This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

ARC: .exit.* sections can be discarded in .eh_frame regime

2016-09-30T21:48:23Z

We used to keep the .exit.* sections as linker would fail in final link due to references from .debug_frame which itself could not be discardrd due to the forced "write,alloc" attributes for it. | LD init/built-in.o | `.exit.text' referenced in section `.debug_frame' of arch/arc/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of arch/arc/built-in.o | Makefile:949: recipe for target 'vmlinux' failed With .debug_frame now retired, this hack is no longer needed. kernel binary is now a little bit smaller as well. closes STAR 9000549913 Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: dw2 unwind: switch to .eh_frame based unwinding

2016-09-30T21:48:20Z

So finally after almost 8 years of dealing with .debug_frame, we are finally switching to .eh_frame. The reason being stripped kernel binaries had non-functional unwinder as .debug_frame was gone. Also, in general .eh_frame seems more common way of doing unwinding. This also folds a revert of f52e126cc747 ("ARC: unwind: ensure that .debug_frame is generated (vs. .eh_frame)") to ensure that we start getting .eh_frame Reported-by: Daniel Mentz Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

ARC: boot: Support Halt-on-reset and Run-on-reset SMP booting modes

2015-10-28T10:38:17Z

For Run-on-reset, non masters need to spin wait. For Halt-on-reset they can jump to entry point directly. Also while at it, made reset vector handler as "the" entry point for kernel including host debugger based boot (which uses the ELF header entry point) Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta
