[parisc-linux] init and exit text problem

[Matthew Wilcox]

Our vmlinux.lds.S doesn't discard init and exit text segments.  Anyone
want to look into fixing this?

the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those
conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse
to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince 
himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep 
he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." -- Mark Twain

(btw removing: "+	*(.exit.text)" in the above patch compile and boot (at
least with defconfig which afaik didn't already include module support).

Any idea on what I missed?

RE: [parisc-linux] init and exit text problem

[Joel Soete]

btw, I try to print a hard copy of ld.info (the only place where I found
some interesting info about /DISCARD/) with texi2dvi but this scipt failed.
Is somebody know a tips to help me?

Thanks in advance,

This is wrong...exit.text and exit.data are runtime discards, not link
time ones, precisely because of the compile failures you get.

> +	*(.exitcall.exit)

This one should be OK.

I'm not sure we can actually do this, though...I seem to remember that
our 64 bit toolchain is not too happy doing discard sections.

OK.

There look to be quite a few other differences between our linker script
and x86's.  I'll go over them and see if we need to change.

Bugs not withstanding, it does seem to work. We have this in the linker
script already for a while:

#ifdef CONFIG_PARISC64
  /* temporary hack until binutils is fixed to not emit these
     for static binaries */
  /DISCARD/ : {
    *(.dynsym)
    *(.dynstr)
    *(.dynamic)
    *(.hash)
  }
#endif

Re: [parisc-linux] init and exit text problem

[James Bottomley]

The attached should be a first cut at this.

I shifted around or vmlinux.lds.S with a view to minimising the diffs
between ours and the one in i386 (so we can spot changes more easily).

I also:

- Implemented cacheline_aligned sections (this may save a few bytes, and
it mirrors i386)
- Corrected a misnaming of the init_task section
- updated our bss clearing algorithm
- removed the duplicate ".initcall.init" section from the head.S files
(it was confusing the linker script and we end up with it being called
.initcall.init.1)
- done the correct thing with regard to discard and init/exit sections
(although we still don't do runtime discards).
- added a few other sections that i386 has (but we don't) just in case
they'll be useful one day (also helps reduce the diff between us and
i386)

This boots and works on the A500 (ios).

2.6.1 kernel with this patch and "bridge_ctl" PCI patch from
Russell King are uploaded to ftp.p-l.o:kernels/a500/2.6.1-pa4.tgz
(No, it's not a -pa4 kernel but that's what it happens to use)

thanks!

If i well find back your mail and references to this "bridge_ctl" patch otc
I don't reach to apply Russel's patch like this (against 2.6.1) to test on
my B2k (which you know don't work yet with pdc_cons). Can you make your "bridge_ctl"
patch available on ftp.p-l.o?

Thanks again for all,
    Joel

PS: an additional question regarding pdc_cons: in 2.4 there was a device
driver in devices/char/pdc_console.[ch] which allowing to use ttyB device.
But in 2.6 there isn't anymore such driver? any idea?

yes - certainly ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/patches/diff-2.6.1-bridge_ctl

Hi Grant,

> yes - certainly ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/patches/diff-2.6.1-bridge_ctl

Ok I applied it against 2.6.1-pa8 (+ some already accepted patch of Matthew
and James related to sym2 driver ;) ).

Compiled with unstable debian gcc-3.3.3 and defconfig, it compiles and boots
well on the b2k ;) (and I am on going to recompile toolchain with it and
all seems to works fine ;) ).

Thanks a lot,
    Joel

ps: I also drive severall test:

Unfortunately, it doesn't help to boot with 64bit kernel on this system
(neither build with my gcc-hppa64_3.3.2 nor with unofficial-deb gcc-hppa64_3.0.4ds3-7.1_hppa.deb
which should the one to use iirc)

And with your config file it always do an hpmc with the 3 compilers I used
(debian gcc-3.3.3, gcc-hppa64 (from gcc-hppa64_3.0.4d
3-7.1_hppa.deb), my own gcc-hppa64_3.3.2), so I would have to find what breaks
for b2k even in 32bit kernel (that will take a long time).

The bad thing is that I don't reach to get any relevant iaoq address from
pim to start investigation :( (just know that it failed very early after
'-- search the FAQ and mailing list...')

hmm just noticed the following diff:

HPMC

So 3 segment loaded in 32bit and only 2 in 64bit, is it normal (i lost info
on the N4k boot :( ).
And also seems to "Branching to" a wrong entry point?
