Construct init thread stack in the linker script rather than by union

2018-01-09T23:21:02Z

Construct the init thread stack in the linker script rather than doing it by means of a union so that ia64's init_task.c can be got rid of. The following symbols are then made available from INIT_TASK_DATA() linker script macro: init_thread_union init_stack INIT_TASK_DATA() also expands the region to THREAD_SIZE to accommodate the size of the init stack. init_thread_union is given its own section so that it can be placed into the stack space in the right order. I'm assuming that the ia64 ordering is correct and that the task_struct is first and the thread_info second.

kbuild: drop FORCE from PHONY targets

2016-04-20T08:27:20Z

These targets are marked as PHONY. No need to add FORCE to their dependency. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

KVM: ia64: remove

2014-11-20T10:08:33Z

KVM for ia64 has been marked as broken not just once, but twice even, and the last patch from the maintainer is now roughly 5 years old. Time for it to rest in peace. Acked-by: Gleb Natapov Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini

kbuild: allow to override Python command name

2014-07-18T08:17:58Z

The specification of Python 3 is largely different from that of Python 2. For example, arch/ia64/scripts/unwcheck.py seems to be written in Python 2, not compatible with Python 3. It is not a good idea to invoke python scripts with the hard-coded command name 'python'. The command 'python' could possibly be Python 3 on some systems. For that case, it is reasonable to allow to override the command name by giving 'PYTHON=python2' from the command line. The 'python' in arch/ia64/Makefile should be replaced with '$(PYTHON)'.

kbuild: allow assignment to {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL on the command line

2010-08-03T12:09:45Z

It is now possible to assign options to AS and CC on the command line - which is only used for built-in code. {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL was used both in the top-level Makefile in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify additional options to AS, CC without overriding the original value. Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL that is used by arch specific files and free up {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL so they can be assigned on the command line. All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg Cc: Tony Luck Cc: Hirokazu Takata Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

kbuild: allow assignment to {A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE on the command line

2010-08-03T12:09:45Z

It is now possible to assign options to AS, CC and LD on the command line - which is only used when building modules. {A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE was all used both in the top-level Makefile in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify additional options to AS, CC, LD when building modules without overriding the original value. Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE that is used by arch specific files and free up {A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE so they can be assigned on the command line. All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated. Note: Previously we had a MODFLAGS variable for both AS and CC. But in favour of consistency this was dropped. So in some cases arch Makefile has one assignmnet replaced by two assignmnets. Note2: MODFLAGS was not documented and is dropped without any notice. I do not expect much/any breakage from this.

[IA64] Remove COMPAT_IA32 support

2010-02-08T18:42:17Z

This has been broken since May 2008 when Al Viro killed altroot support. Since nobody has complained, it would appear that there are no users of this code (A plausible theory since the main OSVs that support ia64 prefer to use the IA32-EL software emulation). Signed-off-by: Tony Luck
