xtensa: add NOTES section to the linker script

2018-10-30T02:02:08Z

This section collects all source .note.* sections together in the vmlinux image. Without it .note.Linux section may be placed at address 0, while the rest of the kernel is at its normal address, resulting in a huge vmlinux.bin image that may not be linked into the xtensa Image.elf.

kbuild: remove deprecated host-progs variable

2018-08-09T12:51:17Z

The host-progs has been kept as an alias of hostprogs-y for a long time (at least since the beginning of Git era), with the clear prompt: Usage of host-progs is deprecated. Please replace with hostprogs-y! Enough time for the migration has passed. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Max Filippov

xtensa: clean up bootable image build targets

2017-03-01T20:32:50Z

Currently xtensa uses 'zImage' as a synonym of 'all', but in fact xtensa supports three targets: 'Image' (ELF image with reset vector), 'zImage' (compressed redboot image) and 'uImage' (U-Boot image). Provide separate 'Image', 'zImage' and 'uImage' make targets that only build corresponding image type. Make 'all' build all images appropriate for a platform. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov

xtensa: don't use echo -e needlessly

2013-09-06T16:48:29Z

-e is not needed to output strings without escape sequences. This breaks big endian FSF build when the shell is dash, because its builtin echo doesn't understand '-e' switch and outputs it in the echoed string. Reported-by: Guenter Roeck Signed-off-by: Max Filippov Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel

xtensa: use new common dtc rule

2013-02-24T03:12:52Z

The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory from the .dts files. This patch changes xtensa to use the generic dtb rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts. This requires moving parts of arch/xtensa/boot/Makefile into newly created arch/xtensa/boot/dts/Makefile, and updating arch/xtensa/Makefile to call the new Makefile.

xtensa: add support for the XTFPGA boards

2012-12-19T05:10:24Z

The Avnet LX60/LX110/LX200 board is an FPGA board that can be configured with an Xtensa processor and an OpenCores Ethernet device. Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel Signed-off-by: Max Filippov Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel

xtensa: add device trees support

2012-12-19T05:10:23Z

Device trees allow specification of hardware topology and device parameters at runtime instead of hard-coding them in platform setup code. This allows running single binary kernel on a range of compatible boards. New boot parameters tag BP_TAG_FDT is allocated and a pointer to flat device tree is passed in it. Note that current interrupt mapping scheme uses single cell for interrupt identification. That means that IRQ numbers used in DTS must be CPU internal IRQ numbers, not external. It is possible to extend interrupt identification to two cells, and use second cell to tell external IRQ numbers form internal. That would allow to use single DTS on multiple boards with different mapping of external IRQ numbers. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel

xtensa: clean up boot make rules
