Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 11/11] arm64: Wire up and expose the new compat vDSO
Date: Tue,  6 Dec 2016 16:03:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161206160353.14581-12-kevin.brodsky@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161206160353.14581-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com>

Expose the new compat vDSO via the COMPAT_VDSO config option.

The option is not enabled in defconfig because we really need a 32-bit
compiler this time, and we rely on the user to provide it themselves
by setting CROSS_COMPILE_ARM32. Therefore enabling the option by
default would make little sense, since the user must explicitly set a
non-standard environment variable anyway.

CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO is not directly used in the code, because we want
to ignore it (build as if it were not set) if the user didn't set
CROSS_COMPILE_ARM32 properly. If the variable has been set to a valid
prefix, CONFIG_VDSO32 will be set; this is the option that the code
and Makefiles test.

For more flexibility, like CROSS_COMPILE, CROSS_COMPILE_ARM32 can also
be set via CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE_ARM32 (the environment variable
overrides the config option, as expected).
