[S390] clean up linker script using new linker script macros.

2009-09-11T08:29:48+00:00

Note that this patch moves .data.init_task inside _edata.  In
addition, the alignment of .init.ramfs changes: It is now PAGE_ALIGNED
and __initramfs_end is arbitrarily aligned; Previously it was
only aligned to a 0x100-byte boundary, and always ended on an even
byte.

This change results in fewer output sections and in some data being
reordered, but should have no functional effect.

[S390] Use macros for .data.page_aligned.

2009-09-11T08:29:47+00:00

.data.page_aligned should not need a separate output section, so as
part of this cleanup I moved into the .data output section in the
linker scripts in order to eliminate unnecessary references to the
section name.

Remove the reference to .data.idt, since nothing is put into the
.data.idt section on the s390 architecture.  It looks like Cyrill
Gorcunov posted a patch to remove the .data.idt code on s390
previously:



CCing him and the people who acked that patch in case there's a reason
it wasn't applied.

linker script: unify usage of discard definition

2009-07-09T02:27:40+00:00

Discarded sections in different archs share some commonality but have
considerable differences.  This led to linker script for each arch
implementing its own /DISCARD/ definition, which makes maintaining
tedious and adding new entries error-prone.

This patch makes all linker scripts to move discard definitions to the
end of the linker script and use the common DISCARDS macro.  As ld
uses the first matching section definition, archs can include default
discarded sections by including them earlier in the linker script.

ia64 is notable because it first throws away some ia64 specific
subsections and then include the rest of the sections into the final
image, so those sections must be discarded before the inclusion.

defconfig compile tested for x86, x86-64, powerpc, powerpc64, ia64,
alpha, sparc, sparc64 and s390.  Michal Simek tested microblaze.

linker script: throw away .discard section

2009-06-24T06:13:38+00:00

x86 throws away .discard section but no other archs do.  Also,
.discard is not thrown away while linking modules.  Make every arch
and module linking throw it away.  This will be used to define dummy
variables for percpu declarations and definitions.

This patch is based on Ivan Kokshaysky's alpha percpu patch.

[ Impact: always throw away everything in .discard ]

s390: convert to use __HEAD and HEAD_TEXT macros.

2009-04-26T16:20:39+00:00

This has the consequence of changing the section name use for head
code from ".text.head" to ".head.text".  Since this commit changes all
users in the architecture, this change should be harmless.

[S390] Fix hypervisor detection for KVM

2009-03-26T14:24:09+00:00

Currently we use the cpuid (via STIDP instruction) to recognize LPAR,
z/VM and KVM.
The architecture states, that bit 0-7 of STIDP returns all zero, and
if STIDP is executed in a virtual machine, the VM operating system
will replace bits 0-7 with FF.

KVM should not use FE to distinguish z/VM from KVM for interested
guests. The proper way to detect the hypervisor is the STSI (Store
System Information) instruction, which return information about the
hypervisors via function code 3, selector1=2, selector2=2.

This patch changes the detection routine of Linux to use STSI instead
of STIDP. This detection is earlier than bootmem, we have to use a
static buffer. Since STSI expects a 4kb block (4kb aligned) this
patch also changes the init.data alignment for s390. As this section
will be freed during boot, this should be no problem.

Patch is tested with LPAR, z/VM, KVM on LPAR, and KVM under z/VM.

[S390] Fix alignment of initial kernel stack.

2008-11-27T10:06:58+00:00

We need an alignment of 16384 bytes for the initial kernel stack if
the kernel is configured for 16384 bytes stacks but the linker script
currently guarantees only an alignment of 8192 bytes.

So fix this and simply use THREAD_SIZE as alignment value which will
always do the right thing.
