2006-10-21[PATCH] x86: Use -maccumulate-outgoing-argsAndi Kleen
This avoids some problems with gcc 4.x and earlier generating invalid unwind information. In 4.1 the option is default when unwind information is enabled. And it seems to generate smaller code too, so it's probably a good thing on its own. With gcc 4.0: i386: 4683198 902112 480868 6066178 5c9002 vmlinux (before) 4449895 902112 480868 5832875 5900ab vmlinux (after) x86-64: 4939761 1449584 648216 7037561 6b6279 vmlinux (before) 4854193 1449584 648216 6951993 6a1439 vmlinux (after) On 4.1 it shouldn't make much difference because it is default when unwind is enabled anyways.

2006-09-26[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Work around gcc bug with noreturn functions in unwinderJan Beulich
Current gcc generates calls not jumps to noreturn functions. When that happens the return address can point to the next function, which confuses the unwinder. This patch works around it by marking asynchronous exception frames in contrast normal call frames in the unwind information. Then teach the unwinder to decode this. For normal call frames the unwinder now subtracts one from the address which avoids this problem. The standard libgcc unwinder uses the same trick. It doesn't include adjustment of the printed address (i.e. for the original example, it'd still be kernel_math_error+0 that gets displayed, but the unwinder wouldn't get confused anymore. This only works with binutils 2.6.17+ and some versions of H.J.Lu's 2.6.16 unfortunately because earlier binutils don't support .cfi_signal_frame [AK: added automatic detection of the new binutils and wrote description] Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2006-09-26[PATCH] x86: Detect CFI support in the assembler at runtimeAndi Kleen
... instead of using a CONFIG option. The config option still controls if the resulting executable actually has unwind information. This is useful to prevent compilation errors when users select CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND on old binutils and also allows to use CFI in the future for non kernel debugging applications.

2006-03-26[PATCH] x86: "make isoimage" support; FDINITRD= support; minor cleanupsH. Peter Anvin
Add a "make isoimage" to i386 and x86-64, which allows the automatic creation of a bootable CD image. It also adds an option FDINITRD= to include an initrd of the user's choice in generated floppy- or CD boot images. Finally, some minor cleanups of the image generation code. Signed-off-by: H.

2006-03-25[PATCH] x86_64: Don't define string functions to builtinAndi Kleen
gcc should handle this anyways, and it causes problems when sprintf is turned into strcpy by gcc behind our backs and the C fallback version of strcpy is actually defining __builtin_strcpy Then drop -ffreestanding from the main Makefile because it isn't needed anymore and implies -fno-builtin, which is wrong now. (it was only added for x86-64, so dropping it should be safe) Noticed by Roman Zippel Cc: Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-06kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behaviorPaul Smith
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make. Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time, even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make. For more details on the incorrect behavior, see: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html Changes in this patch: - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY. - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly. - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether targets are up-to-date or not.

2006-01-14[PATCH] enable unit-at-a-time optimisations for gcc4Ingo Molnar
Allow gcc4 compilers to optimize unit-at-a-time. This flag enables gcc to "see" the entire C file before making optimisation decisions such as inline, which results in gcc making better decisions. One of the immediate effects of this is that static functions that are used only once now get inlined. gcc 3.4 has this flag as well, however gcc 3.x have a problem with inlining and stacks and as a result, enabling this flag there would cause excessive and unacceptable stack use. This problem is fixed in the gcc 4.x series. The x86-64 architecture already enables this feature so it's well tested already.

2006-01-09kbuild: drop vmlinux dependency from "make install"H. Peter Anvin
This removes the dependency from vmlinux to install, thus avoiding the current situation where "make install" has a nasty tendency to leave root-turds in the working directory. It also updates x86-64 to be in sync with i386. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2006-01-08kbuild: remove GCC_VERSIONSam Ravnborg
This was causing some ordering problems. Remove the up-front evaluation and just revaluate the compiler version each time we need it. (The up-front evaluation was problematic because some architectures modify the value of $(CC)). Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2005-10-30[PATCH] uml: reuse i386 cpu-specific tuningPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Make UML share the underlying cpu-specific tuning done on i386. Actually, for now many config options aren't used a lot - but that can be done later. Also, UML relies on GCC optimization for things like memcpy and such more than i386, so specifying the correct -march and -mtune should be enough. Later, we may want to correct some other stuff. For instance, since FPU context switching, for us, is done (at least partially, i.e. between our kernelspace and userspace) by the host, we may allow usage of FPU operations by GCC. This doesn't hold for kernelspace vs. kernelspace, but we don't support preemption.

2005-09-09kbuild: full dependency check on asm-offsets.hSam Ravnborg
Building asm-offsets.h has been moved to a seperate Kbuild file located in the top-level directory. This allow us to share the functionality across the architectures. The old rules in architecture specific Makefiles will die in subsequent patches. Furhtermore the usual kbuild dependency tracking is now used when deciding to rebuild asm-offsets.s. So we no longer risk to fail a rebuild caused by asm-offsets.c dependencies being touched. With this common rule-set we now force the same name across all architectures. Following patches will fix the rest. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2005-06-23[PATCH] biarch compiler support for i386H. Peter Anvin
This allows the i386 architecture to be built on a system with a biarch compiler that defaults to x86-64, merely by specifying ARCH=i386. As previously discussed, this uses the equivalent logic to the ppc port. Signed-Off-By: H.

2005-04-30[PATCH] kbuild/i386: re-introduce dependency on vmlinux for install target, ↵Sam Ravnborg
and add kernel_install Removing the dependency on vmlinux for the install target raised a few complaints, so instead a new target i added: kernel_install. kernel_install will install the kernel just like the ordinary install target. The only difference is that install has a dependency on vmlinux, kernel_install does not. Therefore kernel_install is the best choice when accessing the kernel over a NFS mount or as another user. kernel_install is similar to modules_install in the fact that neither does a full kernel compile before performing the install. In this way they are good for root use. Also added back the dependency on vmlinux for the install target so peoples scripts are no longer broken.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
