2013-10-25	arm64: compat: correct register concatenation for syscall wrappers	Matthew Leach	1	-11/+11
	The arm64 port contains wrappers for arm32 syscalls that pass 64-bit values. These wrappers concatenate the two registers to hold a 64-bit value in a single X register. On BE, however, the lower and higher words are swapped. Create a new assembler macro, regs_to_64, that when on BE systems swaps the registers in the orr instruction.

2012-10-17	arm64: Use generic sys_execve() implementation	Catalin Marinas	1	-5/+0
	This patch converts the arm64 port to use the generic sys_execve() implementation removing the arm64-specific (compat_)sys_execve_wrapper() functions. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2012-10-11	arm64: Do not include asm/unistd32.h in asm/unistd.h	Catalin Marinas	1	-2/+1
	This patch only includes asm/unistd32.h where necessary and removes its inclusion in the asm/unistd.h file. The __SYSCALL_COMPAT guard is dropped. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
2012-10-11	arm64: Remove unused definitions from asm/unistd32.h	Catalin Marinas	1	-123/+0
	This patch removes the compat __NR_* definitions from the unistd32.h file and only keeps those that are used by the AArch64 kernel with a new __NR_compat_* prefix. The additional wrapper definitions in arch/arm64/kernel/sys32.S have been removed and the actual wrapper names included in the asm/unistd32.h file.

2012-09-17	arm64: 32-bit (compat) applications support	Will Deacon	1	-0/+282
	This patch adds support for 32-bit applications. The vectors page is a binary blob mapped into the application user space at 0xffff0000 (the AArch64 toolchain does not support compilation of AArch32 code). Full compatibility with ARMv7 user space is supported. The use of deprecated ARMv7 functionality (SWP, CP15 barriers) has been disabled by default on AArch64 kernels and unaligned LDM/STM is not supported. Please note that only the ARM 32-bit EABI is supported, so no OABI compatibility.
