Revert "arm: move exports to definitions"

2016-11-23T10:00:03Z

This reverts commit 4dd1837d7589f468ed109556513f476e7a7f9121. Moving the exports for assembly code into the assembly files breaks KSYM trimming, but also breaks modversions. While fixing the KSYM trimming is trivial, fixing modversions brings us to a technically worse position that we had prior to the above change: - We end up with the prototype definitions divorsed from everything else, which means that adding or removing assembly level ksyms become more fragile: * if adding a new assembly ksyms export, a missed prototype in asm-prototypes.h results in a successful build if no module in the selected configuration makes use of the symbol. * when removing a ksyms export, asm-prototypes.h will get forgotten, with armksyms.c, you'll get a build error if you forget to touch the file. - We end up with the same amount of include files and prototypes, they're just in a header file instead of a .c file with their exports. As for lines of code, we don't get much of a size reduction: (original commit) 47 files changed, 131 insertions(+), 208 deletions(-) (fix for ksyms trimming) 7 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (two fixes for modversions) 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+) 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) which results in a net total of only 25 lines deleted. As there does not seem to be much benefit from this change of approach, revert the change. Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8408/1: Fix the secondary_startup function in Big Endian case

2015-08-07T18:57:02Z

Since the commit "b2c3e38a5471 ARM: redo TTBR setup code for LPAE", the setup code had been reworked. As a result the secondary CPUs failed to come online in Big Endian. As explained by Russell, the new code expected the value in r4/r5 to be the least significant 32bits in r4 and the most significant 32bits in r5. However, in the secondary code, we load this using ldrd, which on BE reverses that. This patch swap r4/r5 after the ldrd. It is done using the xor instructions in order to not use a temporary register. Signed-off-by: Gregory CLEMENT Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: redo TTBR setup code for LPAE

2015-06-01T22:48:19Z

Re-engineer the LPAE TTBR setup code. Rather than passing some shifted address in order to fit in a CPU register, pass either a full physical address (in the case of r4, r5 for TTBR0) or a PFN (for TTBR1). This removes the ARCH_PGD_SHIFT hack, and the last dangerous user of cpu_set_ttbr() in the secondary CPU startup code path (which was there to re-set TTBR1 to the appropriate high physical address space on Keystone2.)

ARM: replace BSYM() with badr assembly macro

2015-05-08T16:33:50Z

BSYM() was invented to allow us to work around a problem with the assembler, where local symbols resolved by the assembler for the 'adr' instruction did not take account of their ISA. Since we don't want BSYM() used elsewhere, replace BSYM() with a new macro 'badr', which is like the 'adr' pseudo-op, but with the BSYM() mechanics integrated into it. This ensures that the BSYM()-ification is only used in conjunction with 'adr'. Acked-by: Dave Martin Acked-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Russell King
