Thomas WeißschuhandArnd Bergmann b4171fd0b0 ARC: Always use SWAPE instructions for __arch_swab32()
Since commit 67a697e7576 ("ARC: retire ARC750 support") all supported
CPUs have the 'swape' instruction.

Always use the implementation of __arch_swabe() which uses 'swape'.
ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP can not be used as that results on libcalls on
-mcpu=arc700.

As as side-effect, remove a leak of an internal kconfig symbol through
the UAPI headers.

Masahiro Yamada 3b7f793acc ARC: migrate to the generic rule for built-in DTB
Commit 654102df2a ("kbuild: add generic support for built-in boot
DTBs") introduced generic support for built-in DTBs.

Select GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB to use the generic rule.

To keep consistency across architectures, this commit also renames
CONFIG_ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME to CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME.

Now, "nsim_700" is the default value for CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME, rather
than a fallback in case it is empty.

Leon RomanovskyandVineet Gupta 824927e884 ARC: build: Try to guess GCC variant of cross compiler
ARC GCC compiler is packaged starting from Fedora 39i and the GCC
variant of cross compile tools has arc-linux-gnu- prefix and not
arc-linux-. This is causing that CROSS_COMPILE variable is left unset.

This change allows builds without need to supply CROSS_COMPILE argument
if distro package is used.

Before this change:
$ make -j 128 ARCH=arc W=1 drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/
  gcc: warning: ‘-mcpu=’ is deprecated; use ‘-mtune=’ or ‘-march=’ instead
  gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option ‘-mmedium-calls’

Vineet Gupta cfca4b5abe ARC: entry: use gp to cache task pointer (vs. r25)
The motivation is eventual ABI considerations for ARCv3 but even without
it this change us worthwhile as diffstat reduces 100 net lines

r25 is a callee saved register, normally not saved by entry code in
pt_regs. However because of its usage in CONFIG_ARC_CURR_IN_REG it needs
to be. This in turn requires a whole bunch of special casing when we
need to access r25. Then there is distinction between user mode r25 vs.
kernel mode r25 - hence distinct SAVE_CALLEE_SAVED_{USER,KERNEL}

Instead use gp which is a scratch register and thus saved already in entry
code. This cleans things up significantly and much nocer on eyes:

 - SAVE_CALLEE_SAVED_{USER,KERNEL} are now exactly same
 - no special user_r25 slot in pt_reggs

Note that typical global asm registers are callee-saved (r25), but gp is
not callee-saved thus needs additional -ffixed-<reg> toggle

Masahiro Yamada ce697ccee1 kbuild: remove head-y syntax
Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.

A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.

I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.

I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

Masahiro Yamada 129ab0d2d9 kbuild: do not quote string values in include/config/auto.conf
The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.

Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.

Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):

    CONFIG_X="foo bar"

Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.

There are some patterns:

  [1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
  [2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
  [3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
  [4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))

These are not only ugly, but also fragile.

[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
   CONFIG_X=" foo bar "

[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
   CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"

[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.

Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.

This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

    ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
    ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME
    ARC_TUNE_MCPU
    BUILTIN_DTB_SOURCE
    CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH
    CC_VERSION_TEXT
    CFG80211_EXTRA_REGDB_KEYDIR
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE

Masahiro Yamada 8212f8986d kbuild: use more subdir- for visiting subdirectories while cleaning
Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst suggests to use "archclean" for
cleaning arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/, but it is not a hard requirement.

Since commit d92cc4d516 ("kbuild: require all architectures to have
arch/$(SRCARCH)/Kbuild"), we can use the "subdir- += boot" trick for
all architectures. This can take advantage of the parallel option (-j)
for "make clean".

I also cleaned up the comments in arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. The "archdep"
target no longer exists.

Masahiro YamadaandVineet Gupta c5e6ae563c ARC: build: move symlink creation to arch/arc/Makefile to avoid race
If you run 'make uImage uImage.gz' with the parallel option, uImage.gz
will be created by two threads simultaneously.

This is because arch/arc/Makefile does not specify the dependency
between uImage and uImage.gz. Hence, GNU Make assumes they can be
built in parallel. One thread descends into arch/arc/boot/ to create
uImage, and another to create uImage.gz.

Please notice the same log is displayed twice in the following steps:

  $ export CROSS_COMPILE=<your-arc-compiler-prefix>
  $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig
  $ make -j$(nproc) ARCH=arc uImage uImage.gz
  [ snip ]
    LD      vmlinux
    SORTTAB vmlinux
    SYSMAP  System.map
    OBJCOPY arch/arc/boot/vmlinux.bin

    GZIP    arch/arc/boot/vmlinux.bin.gz

  Load Address: 80000000
  Entry Point:  80004000

This is a race between the two threads trying to write to the same file
arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz. This is a potential problem that can generate
a broken file.

I fixed a similar problem for ARM by commit 3939f33450 ("ARM: 8418/1:
add boot image dependencies to not generate invalid images").

I highly recommend to avoid such build rules that cause a race condition.

Move the uImage rule to arch/arc/Makefile.

Another strangeness is that arch/arc/boot/Makefile compares the
timestamps between $(obj)/uImage and $(obj)/uImage.*:

  $(obj)/uImage: $(obj)/uImage.$(suffix-y)
          @ln -sf $(notdir $<) $@
          @echo '  Image $@ is ready'

This does not work as expected since $(obj)/uImage is a symlink.
The symlink should be created in a phony target rule.

I used $(kecho) instead of echo to suppress the message
'Image arch/arc/boot/uImage is ready' when the -s option is given.

Masahiro YamadaandVineet Gupta 0cfccb3c04 ARC: build: add boot_targets to PHONY
The top-level boot_targets (uImage and uImage.*) should be phony
targets. They just let Kbuild descend into arch/arc/boot/ and create
files there.

If a file exists in the top directory with the same name, the boot
image will not be created.

You can confirm it by the following steps:

  $ export CROSS_COMPILE=<your-arc-compiler-prefix>
  $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig all   # vmlinux will be built
  $ touch uImage.gz
  $ make ARCH=arc uImage.gz
  CALL    scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
  # arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz is not created

Masahiro YamadaandVineet Gupta 9836720911 ARC: build: remove non-existing bootpImage from KBUILD_IMAGE
The deb-pkg builds for ARCH=arc fail.

  $ export CROSS_COMPILE=<your-arc-compiler-prefix>
  $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig
  $ make ARCH=arc bindeb-pkg

  make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:83: bindeb-pkg] Error 2
  make: *** [Makefile:1527: bindeb-pkg] Error 2

The reason is obvious; arch/arc/Makefile sets $(boot)/bootpImage as
the default image, but there is no rule to build it.

Remove the meaningless KBUILD_IMAGE assignment so it will fallback
to the default vmlinux. With this change, you can build the deb package.

I removed the 'bootpImage' target as well. At best, it provides
'make bootpImage' as an alias of 'make vmlinux', but I do not see
much sense in doing so.

Starting from nSIM 2019.06 is possible to use DW UART
instead of ARC UART. That allows us to merge
"nsim_hs" with "haps_hs" and "nsim_hs_smp" with "haps_hs_smp"
with minor changes which were done in previous commits.

We eliminate nsim_hs_defconfig and nsim_hs_smp_defconfig
and leave haps_hs_defconfig and haps_hs_smp_defconfig
which can be used on HAPS / nSIM / ZEBU / QEMU platforms
without additional changes in Linux kernel.

For nSIM we should now use UART property values
"-prop=nsim_mem-dev=uart0,kind=dwuart,base=0xf0000000"
instead of previously used
"-prop=nsim_mem-dev=uart0,base=0xc0fc1000"
"use_connect" and "irq" values of UART property remains untouched.

My plan is to remove ARCH_{CPP,A,C}FLAGS after refactoring the ARC

Currently, ARC has no way to enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized because both
-O3 and -Os disable it. Enabling it will be useful for compile-testing.
This commit allows allmodconfig (, which defaults to -O2) to enable it.

Alexey BrodkinandVineet Gupta 2bc42bfba9 ARC: build: Try to guess CROSS_COMPILE with cc-cross-prefix
For a long time we used to hard-code CROSS_COMPILE prefix
for ARC until it started to cause problems, so we decided to
solely rely on CROSS_COMPILE externally set by a user:
commit 40660f1fce ("ARC: build: Don't set CROSS_COMPILE in arch's Makefile").

While it works perfectly fine for build-systems where the prefix
gets defined anyways for us human beings it's quite an annoying
requirement especially given most of time the same one prefix
"arc-linux-" is all what we need.

It looks like finally we're getting the best of both worlds:
 1. W/o cross-toolchain we still may install headers, build .dtb etc
 2. W/ cross-toolchain get the kerne built with only ARCH=arc

A side note: even though "cc-cross-prefix" does its job it pollutes
console with output of "which" for all the prefixes it didn't manage to find
a matching cross-compiler for like that:
| # ARCH=arc make defconfig
| which: no arceb-linux-gcc in (~/.local/bin:~/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin)
| *** Default configuration is based on 'nsim_hs_defconfig'
