2011-05-11arm/dt: Make __vet_atags also accept a dtb imageGrant Likely
The dtb is passed to the kernel via register r2, which is the same method that is used to pass an atags pointer. This patch modifies __vet_atags to not clear r2 when it encounters a dtb image. v2: fixed bugs pointed out by Nicolas Pitre Tested-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
2011-02-15ARM: Defer lookup of machine_type to setup.cRussell King
Since the debug macros no longer depend on the machine type information, the machine type lookup can be deferred to setup_arch() in setup.c which simplifies the code somewhat. We also move the __error_a functionality into setup.c for displaying a message when a bad machine ID is passed to the kernel via the LL debug code. We also log this into the kernel ring buffer which makes it possible to retrieve the message via a debugger. Original idea from Grant Likely.

2011-01-15ARM: fix missing branch in __error_aRussell King
When DEBUG_LL is not set, we don't want __error_a re-entering __lookup_machine_type - we want it to go to the error function. This used to be the case before we reorganized the layout for hotplug cpu, as we used to fall through to __error. With the changed layout, we need an explicit branch here instead.

2010-10-08ARM: hotplug cpu: move __error and __error_p to cpuinit sectionRussell King
__error and __error_p may be used by secondary CPUs, so these need to be in the cpuinit section. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-10-08ARM: move __mmap_switched, C-API functions to init sectionRussell King
Move these functions, which are only ever used during boot CPU initialization, to the init section. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-10-08ARM: cleanup boot cpu calling __mmap_switchedRussell King
This allows us to relocate __mmap_switched and associated data away from the head section. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-10-08ARM: hotplug cpu: Keep processor information, startup code & ↵Russell King
__lookup_processor_type When hotplug CPU is enabled, we need to keep the list of supported CPUs, their setup functions, and __lookup_processor_type in place so that we can find and initialize secondary CPUs. Move these into the __CPUINIT section. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-10-08ARM: vmlinux.lds: Refer to start of .data using _sdata rather than _dataRussell King
Use _sdata as the start of the data section, rather than _data. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2009-11-08ARM: 5784/1: fix early boot machine ID mismatch error displayNicolas Pitre
That code was refactored a long time ago, but one particular label didn't get adjusted properly which broke the listing of supported machines. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2009-10-02ARM: 5739/1: ARM: allow empty ATAG_COREDavid Brown
From: David Brown <davidb@quicinc.com> The ATAG_CORE is allowed to be empty. Although this is handled by parse_tag_core(), __vet_atags during startup rejects this tag unless it contains data. Allow the initial tag to be either the full size, or empty. Signed-off-by: David Brown <davidb@quicinc.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2009-07-24Thumb-2: Implementation of the unified start-up and exceptions codeCatalin Marinas
This patch implements the ARM/Thumb-2 unified kernel start-up and exception handling code. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2009-07-24Thumb-2: Add some .align statements to the .S filesCatalin Marinas
Since the Thumb-2 instructions can be 16-bit wide, data in the .text sections may not be aligned to a 32-bit word and this leads to unaligned exceptions. This patch does not affect the ARM code generation. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2008-12-01[ARM] use asm/sections.hRussell King
Update to use the asm/sections.h header rather than declaring these symbols ourselves. Change __data_start to _data to conform with the naming found within asm/sections.h. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-01[ARM] 5227/1: Add the ENDPROC declarations to the .S filesCatalin Marinas

2008-03-06[ARM] 4849/1: move ATAGS asm definitionsGreg Ungerer
Move the definitions of ATAG_CORE and ATAG_CORE_SIZE in head.S to head-common.S. There is no use of these in head.S itself, but they are used in head-common.S. When building for the !CONFIG_MMU case these were not defined when compiling head-nommu.S (which includes head-common.S).

2007-07-12[ARM] 4423/1: add ATAGS supportBill Gatliff
Examines the ATAGS pointer (r2) at boot, and interprets a nonzero value as a reference to an ATAGS structure. A suitable ATAGS structure replaces the kernel's command line. Signed-off-by: Bill Gatliff <bgat@billgatliff.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
