2008-02-13[XTENSA] Fix makefile to work with binutils-2.18.Bob Wilson
When building with binutils-2.18, vmlinux includes .note.gnu.build-id sections that need to be stripped out when building the binary image. The old .xt.insn sections haven't been used for a long time, so don't bother stripping them. Signed-off-by: Bob Wilson <bob.wilson@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>

2008-02-13[XTENSA] adjust boot linker script start addressesMarc Gauthier
Move boot-redboot load address from 0xD0200000 to 0xD1000000 to make space for larger kernel images, in particular those with an embedded initramfs filesystem. Also properly set the ELF start address in boot-elf images so that PC need not be set manually when loading them using GDB. Signed-off-by: Marc Gauthier <marc@tensilica.com>
2007-10-20kbuild: restore arch/{ppc/xtensa}/boot cflagsMilton Miller
Commit 9a39e273d4df0560c724c5fe71f6314a0583ca2b removed the boot directory addition to CFLAGS that was being used by the subdirectory builds. For the other files, that patch set EXTRA_CFLAGS, but Makefile.build explicitly sets that to empty as it is explicitly for a single directory only. Append to KBUILD_CFLAGS instead.

2007-10-14kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CCSam Ravnborg
The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour. On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to pass in additional flags to gcc. This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the tree and enabling one to use: make CFLAGS=... to specify additional gcc commandline options. One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other use cases has been requested too. Patch was tested on following architectures: alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check that nothing got rebuild.

2007-10-14kbuild: fix up CFLAGS usageSam Ravnborg
Only in very rare cases is it needed to change CFLAGS outside of arch/*/Makefile. Fix up all wrong cases - in most cases the use of EXTRA_CFLAGS is the only thing needed. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2006-12-10[PATCH] xtensa: remove extra header filesChris Zankel
The Xtensa port contained many header files that were never needed. This rather lengthy patch removes all those files. Unfortunately, there were many dependencies that needed to be updated, so this patch touches quite a few source files.

2006-06-22[PATCH] zlib_inflate: Upgrade library code to a recent versionRichard Purdie
Upgrade the zlib_inflate implementation in the kernel from a patched version 1.1.3/4 to a patched 1.2.3. The code in the kernel is about seven years old and I noticed that the external zlib library's inflate performance was significantly faster (~50%) than the code in the kernel on ARM (and faster again on x86_32). For comparison the newer deflate code is 20% slower on ARM and 50% slower on x86_32 but gives an approx 1% compression ratio improvement. I don't consider this to be an improvement for kernel use so have no plans to change the zlib_deflate code. Various changes have been made to the zlib code in the kernel, the most significant being the extra functions/flush option used by ppp_deflate. This update reimplements the features PPP needs to ensure it continues to work. This code has been tested on ARM under both JFFS2 (with zlib compression enabled) and ppp_deflate and on x86_32. JFFS2 sees an approx. 10% real world file read speed improvement. This patch also removes ZLIB_VERSION as it no longer has a correct value. We don't need version checks anyway as the kernel's module handling will take care of that for us. This removal is also more in keeping with the zlib author's wishes (http://www.zlib.net/zlib_faq.html#faq24) and I've added something to the zlib.h header to note its a modified version.

2005-06-30[PATCH] xtensa: Removed local copy of zlib and fixed O= supportChris Zankel
Removed an unnecessary local copy of zlib (sorry for the add'l traffic). Fixed 'O=' support (thanks to Jan Dittmer for pointing it out). Some minor clean-ups in the make files.
