From da94a829305f1c217cfdf6771cb1faca0917e3b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Fri, 31 May 2013 22:50:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: 7743/1: compressed/head.S: work around new binutils warning In August 2012, Matthew Gretton-Dann checked a change into binutils labelled "Error on obsolete & warn on deprecated registers", apparently as part of ARMv8 support. Apparently, this was supposed to emit the message "Warning: This coprocessor register access is deprecated in ARMv8" when using certain mcr/mrc instructions and building for ARMv8. Unfortunately, the message that is actually emitted appears to be '(null)', which is less helpful in comparison. Even more unfortunately, this is biting us on every single kernel build with a new gas, because arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S and some other files in that directory are built with -march=all since kernel commit 80cec14a8 "[ARM] Add -march=all to assembly file build in arch/arm/boot/compressed" back in v2.6.28. This patch reverts Russell's nice solution and instead marks the head.S file to be built for armv7-a, which fortunately lets us build all instructions in that file without warnings even on the broken binutils. Without this patch, building anything results in: arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S: Assembler messages: arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:565: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:676: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:698: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:722: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:726: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:957: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:996: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:997: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1027: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1035: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1046: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1060: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1092: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1094: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1095: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1102: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1134: Warning: (null) Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Matthew Gretton-Dann Signed-off-by: Russell King --- arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile | 2 +- arch/arm/boot/compressed/head-sa1100.S | 1 + arch/arm/boot/compressed/head-shark.S | 1 + arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S | 1 + 4 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile b/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile index 3580d57ea218..79e9bdbfc491 100644 --- a/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile +++ b/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile @@ -124,7 +124,7 @@ KBUILD_CFLAGS = $(subst -pg, , $(ORIG_CFLAGS)) endif ccflags-y := -fpic -mno-single-pic-base -fno-builtin -I$(obj) -asflags-y := -Wa,-march=all -DZIMAGE +asflags-y := -DZIMAGE # Supply kernel BSS size to the decompressor via a linker symbol.
