Initial big-endian support series

Initial big-endian support series

[Ben Dooks]

This updates the kernel support for building big-endian kernels
and updating the core drivers to deal with the endian swap as
needed.

This series does not include the fixups for ATAGs so it will require
being booted with fdt. As a note, we do not currently disable the
ATAGs options for the system (although we could) as there will be a
set of patches following on to deal with booting BE kernel on LE
systems.

I have not had time to test it on THUMB2 kernels. There is still
fixup work to be done for these which will require more time.

It is on git://git.baserock.org:/delta/linux on branch baserock/311/be/core

[PATCH 01/10] ARM: fix ARCH_IXP4xx usage of ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN

[Ben Dooks]

The Kconfig for arch/arm/mach-ixp4xx has a local definition
of ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN which could be used elsewhere.
This means that if IXP4xx is selected and this symbol is
selected eleswhere then an warning is produced.

Clean the following error up by making the symbol be
selected by the main ARCH_IXP4XX definition and have a
common definition in arch/arm/mm/Kconfig

warning: (ARCH_xxx) selects ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN which has unmet direct dependencies (ARCH_IXP4XX)
warning: (ARCH_xxx) selects ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN which has unmet direct dependencies (ARCH_IXP4XX)

[PATCH 02/10] ARM: fixup_pv_table bug when CPU_ENDIAN_BE8

[Ben Dooks]

The fixup_pv_table assumes that the instructions are in the same
endian configuration as the data, but when the CPU is running in
BE8 the instructions stay in little-endian format.

Make sure if CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 is set that we do all the
alterations to the instructions taking in to account the LDR/STR
will be swapping the data endian-ness.

Since the code is only modifying a byte, we avoid dual-swapping
the data, and just change the bits we clear and ORR in.

Note, not tested against an actual bug, it looked wrong.

[PATCH 04/10] ARM: set BE8 if LE in head code

[Ben Dooks]

If we are booting in LE and compiled for BE8, then add code to
set the state to bE8. Since the instruction stream is always LE,
we do not need to do anything special to the instruction.

Also ensure that the secondary processors are started in the same mode.

Note, we do add about 20 bytes to the kernel image, but it seems easier
to do this than adding another configuration to change.

[PATCH 05/10] ARM: pl01x debug code endian fix

[Ben Dooks]

The PL01X debug code needs to take into account which endian mode the
processor is running in. If it is big-endian, ensure the data is swapped
appropriately.

Note, we could do this slightly more efficiently if we have an macro to
do the necessary swap for the bits used by test.

[PATCH 09/10] mvebu: support running big-endian

[Ben Dooks]

Add indication we can run these cores in BE mode, and ensure that the
secondary CPU is set to big-endian mode in the initialisation code as
the initial code runs little-endian.

As was suggested in
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-February/150782.html,
you could put this patch later in the series and use the ARM_BE8()
macro you introduce in the next patch.

Also in
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-February/150784.html,
the same reviewer suggested to name the macro BE8() to make it fit like
ARM() and THUMB() in the margin left by the indentation of assembly
code. And also to add LE() to make the above code look like:

BE8(	bic ip, ip, #0xff000000)
BE8(	orr ip, ip, r6, lsl#24)
LE(	bic ip, ip, #0x000000ff)
LE(	orr ip, ip, r6)

Actually, that doesn't work as LE is not the inverse of BE8 as
it could also be when the kernel is being compiled in BE32.

Aah, correct. In BE32, data and instructions have the same endianness.

I have tested both series on an Armada XP based platform and I confirm
that I'm able to boot successfully with a BE8 kernel and into a BE8
userspace. Nice!

Would it be possible to get this merged?

I might have some time in the near future to look at that, if you don't
do it in the mean time, of course.

Thanks!

[PATCH 01/10] ARM: fix ARCH_IXP4xx usage of ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN

[Ben Dooks]

The Kconfig for arch/arm/mach-ixp4xx has a local definition
of ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN which could be used elsewhere.
This means that if IXP4xx is selected and this symbol is
selected eleswhere then an warning is produced.

Clean the following error up by making the symbol be
selected by the main ARCH_IXP4XX definition and have a
common definition in arch/arm/mm/Kconfig

warning: (ARCH_xxx) selects ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN which has unmet direct dependencies (ARCH_IXP4XX)
warning: (ARCH_xxx) selects ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN which has unmet direct dependencies (ARCH_IXP4XX)
