When targeting ARMv3 (e.g. rpc) and enabling CONFIG_VDSO we get:
arch/arm/vdso/datapage.S:13: Error: selected processor does not
support ARM mode `bx lr'
One fix considered was to use 'ldr pc,lr' for such configurations, but
since the VDSO is unlikely to be useful for pre-v7 hardware, just make
it depend on CONFIG_CPU_V7.

Enabling CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE on a SMP capable system will prevent the
kernel from booting because of the following ldrex instruction in
arch_spin_lock:
(gdb) x/10i $pc
=> 0xc053cfa8 <_raw_spin_lock+4>: ldrex r3, [r0]
0xc053cfac <_raw_spin_lock+8>: add r2, r3, #65536 ; 0x10000
which is taken by the very first printk call:
at /home/fainelli/work/linux/arch/arm/include/asm/spinlock.h:65
fmt=0xc0637650 " 01 66Booting Linux on physical CPU 0x%xn", args=<incomplete type>)

ldrex requires exclusive monitor(s) (local or global) which are no longer
working when the Data cache is disabled in CP15 and will just hang the CPU
there.

Commit 20e783e39e55 ("ARM: 8296/1: cache-l2x0: clean up aurora cache

The recently added ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS feature works by manipulating
the kernel page tables, which obviously requires an MMU. Trying
to enable this feature when the MMU is disabled results in a lot
of compile errors in mm/init.c, so let's add a Kconfig dependency
to avoid that case.

before commit fbfb872f5f41 "ARM: 8148/1: flush TLS and thumbee

first exec.
Prevent CONFIG_MMU=n configurations from enabling
CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS.

Commit 68f3b875f7848f5304472184a4634148c5330cbd
"ARM: integrator: make the Integrator multiplatform"
broke allmodconfig like this:
>> arch/arm/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:114:2: error: #error
"SMP is not supported on this platform"
(etc)
This is due to the fact that as we turned on multiplatform
for the Integrator, this enabled a lot of non-applicable
CPU's to be selected for its multiplatform images, due to
a lot of "depends on ARCH_INTEGRATOR" restrictions in
arch/arm/mm/Kconfig for the different ARM CPU types.
Fix this by restricting the CPU selections to respective
multiplatform config, which now becomes a subset of the
possible Integrator configurations, or alternatively the
non-multiplatform config plus ARCH_INTEGRATOR, i.e.:
if (!ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || ARCH_MULTI_Vx) &&
(ARCH_INTEGRATOR || ARCH_FOO ...)
Since the Integrator has been converted to multiplatform,
this will often take the short form:
if (ARCH_MULTI_Vx && ARCH_INTEGRATOR)
If no other non-multiplatform platforms are elegible.

Adds CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS to separate the kernel memory regions
into section-sized areas that can have different permisions. Performs
the NX permission changes during free_initmem, so that init memory can be
reclaimed.
This uses section size instead of PMD size to reduce memory lost to
padding on non-LPAE systems.

SWP is deprecated in ARMv6 and ARMv7 CPUs, but more importantly, when
running on a SMP system, SWP doesn't guarantee atomicity. This means
it can't really be used (by userspace) for locking purposes in a SMP
environment.
Currently, many configurations leave the SWP emulation disabled, which
means we never know if userspace executes this instruction on ARMv7
hardware. Rectify this by enabling SWP emulation for ARMv7 with SMP
(where we can trap the instruction.)

A number of configurations spit out warnings similar to:
warning: (SOC_IMX6 && SOC_VF610 && ARCH_OMAP4) selects PL310_ERRATA_588369 which has unmet direct dependencies (CACHE_L2X0)
warning: (SOC_IMX6 && SOC_VF610 && ARCH_OMAP4) selects PL310_ERRATA_727915 which has unmet direct dependencies (CACHE_L2X0)
Clean up the dependencies here:
* PL310 symbols should only be selected when CACHE_L2X0 is enabled.
* Since the cache-l2x0 code detects PL310 presence at runtime, and we will
eventually get rid of CACHE_PL310, surround these errata options with an
if CACHE_L2X0 conditional rather than repeating the dependency against
each.

CPU_32v6 currently selects CPU_USE_DOMAINS if CPU_V6 and MMU. This is
because ARM 1136 r0pX CPUs lack the v6k extensions, and therefore do
not have hardware thread registers. The lack of these registers requires
the kernel to update the vectors page at each context switch in order to
write a new TLS pointer. This write must be done via the userspace
mapping, since aliasing caches can lead to expensive flushing when using
kmap. Finally, this requires the vectors page to be mapped r/w for
kernel and r/o for user, which has implications for things like put_user
which must trigger CoW appropriately when targetting user pages.
The upshot of all this is that a v6/v7 kernel makes use of domains to
segregate kernel and user memory accesses. This has the nasty
side-effect of making device mappings executable, which has been
observed to cause subtle bugs on recent cores (e.g. Cortex-A15
performing a speculative instruction fetch from the GIC and acking an
interrupt in the process).
This patch solves this problem by removing the remaining domain support
from ARMv6. A new memory type is added specifically for the vectors page
which allows that page (and only that page) to be mapped as user r/o,
kernel r/w. All other user r/o pages are mapped also as kernel r/o.
Patch co-developed with Russell King.

Currently CPU_V7 selects CPU_CP15_MMU, however in the case of a V7 CPU
implementing the PMSA, such as the Cortex-R7, the CP15_MMU operations are
not available. Selecting CPU_CP15_MPU is appropriate in this case.
This patch makes CPU_CP15_MMU dependent on the use of the MMU, selecting
CPU_CP15_MPU for v7 processors when !MMU is chosen.

The branch merges fine into v3.10-rc1 and I'd be happy if you pulled it
for 3.11-rc1. The only missing piece to be able to run a Cortex-M3 is
the irqchip driver that will go in via Thomas Gleixner and platform
specific stuff."

This is only used by 740t, which is a v4 core and (by my reading of the
datasheet for the CPU) ignores CRm for the cp15 cache flush operation,
making the v4 cache implementation in cache-v4.S sufficient for this
CPU.
Tested with 740T core-tile on Integrator/AP baseboard.

Some ARM cores are not capable to run in ARM mode (e.g. Cortex-M3). So
obviously these cannot enter the kernel in ARM mode. Make an exception
for them and let them enter in THUMB mode.

ARM_VIRT_EXT is a property of CPU_V7, but does not adversely affect
other CPUs that can be built into the same kernel image (i.e. ARMv6+).
This patch defaults ARM_VIRT_EXT to y if CPU_V7, allowing hypervisors
such as KVM to make better use of the option and being able to rely
on hyp-mode boot support.

PJ4B is an implementation of the ARMv7 (such as the Cortex A9 for
example) released by Marvell. This CPU is currently found in
Armada 370 and Armada XP SoCs. This patch provides a support for the

As suggested by Andrew Morton:
This is a pet peeve of mine. Any time there's a long list of items
(header file inclusions, kconfig entries, array initalisers, etc) and
someone wants to add a new item, they *always* go and stick it at the
end of the list.
Guys, don't do this. Either put the new item into a randomly-chosen
position or, probably better, alphanumerically sort the list.
lets sort all our select statements alphanumerically. This commit was
created by the following perl:
while (<>) {
while (/\\\s*$/) {
$_ .= <>;
}
undef %selects if /^\s*config\s+/;
if (/^\s+select\s+(\w+).*/) {
if (defined($selects{$1})) {
if ($selects{$1} eq $_) {
print STDERR "Warning: removing duplicated $1 entry\n";
} else {
print STDERR "Error: $1 differently selected\n".
"\tOld: $selects{$1}\n".
"\tNew: $_\n";
exit 1;
}
}
$selects{$1} = $_;
next;
}
if (%selects and (/^\s*$/ or /^\s+help/ or /^\s+---help---/ or
/^endif/ or /^endchoice/)) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
undef %selects;
}
print;
}
if (%selects) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
}
It found two duplicates:
Warning: removing duplicated S5P_SETUP_MIPIPHY entry
Warning: removing duplicated HARDIRQS_SW_RESEND entry
and they are identical duplicates, hence the shrinkage in the diffstat
of two lines.
We have four testers reporting success of this change (Tony, Stephen,
Linus and Sekhar.)

This patch removes support for ARMv3 CPUs, which haven't worked properly
for quite some time (see the FIXME comment in arch/arm/mm/fault.c). The
only V3 parts left is the cache model for ARMv3, which is needed for some
odd reason by ARM740T CPUs, and being able to build with -march=armv3,
which is required for the RiscPC platform due to its bus structure.

To ensure correct alignment of cacheline-aligned data, the maximum
cacheline size needs to be known at compile time.
Since Cortex-A8 and Cortex-A15 have 64-byte cachelines (and it is likely
that there will be future ARMv7 implementations with the same line size)
then it makes sense to assume that CPU_V7 implies a 64-byte L1 cacheline
size. For CPUs with smaller caches, this will result in some harmless
padding but will help with single zImage work and avoid hitting subtle
bugs with misaligned data structures.

Making CACHE_L2X0 depend on (huge list of MACH_ and ARCH_ configs)
is bothersome to maintain and likely to lead to merge conflicts.
This patch moves the knowledge of which platforms have a L2x0 or
PL310 cache controller to the individual machines. To enable this,
a new MIGHT_HAVE_CACHE_L2X0 config option is introduced to allow
machines to indicate that they may have such a cache controller
independently of each other.
Boards/SoCs which cannot reliably operate without the L2 cache
controller support will need to select CACHE_L2X0 directly from
their own Kconfigs instead. This applies to some TrustZone-enabled
boards where Linux runs in the Normal World, for example.
