arm: kernel: Add SMC structure parameter

2017-02-03T18:46:33Z

This patch adds a quirk parameter to the arm_smccc_(smc/hvc) calls. The quirk structure allows for specialized SMC operations due to SoC specific requirements. The current arm_smccc_(smc/hvc) is renamed and macros are used instead to specify the standard arm_smccc_(smc/hvc) or the arm_smccc_(smc/hvc)_quirk function. This patch and partial implementation was suggested by Will Deacon. Signed-off-by: Andy Gross Reviewed-by: Will Deacon Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

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: 8479/2: add implementation for arm-smccc

2016-01-04T16:24:34Z

Adds implementation for arm-smccc and enables CONFIG_HAVE_SMCCC for architectures that may support arm-smccc. It's the responsibility of the caller to know if the SMC instruction is supported by the platform. Reviewed-by: Lars Persson Signed-off-by: Jens Wiklander Signed-off-by: Russell King
