2017-08-31powerpc/asm: Convert .llong directives to .8byteTobin C. Harding1-3/+3
.llong is an undocumented PPC specific directive. The generic equivalent is .quad, but even better (because it's self describing) is .8byte. Convert all .llong directives to .8byte. Signed-off-by: Tobin C. Harding <me@tobin.cc> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2014-03-07powerpc: Align p_dyn, p_rela and p_st symbolsAnton Blanchard1-0/+1
The 64bit relocation code places a few symbols in the text segment. These symbols are only 4 byte aligned where they need to be 8 byte aligned. Add an explicit alignment.

2014-02-11powerpc/relocate fix relocate processing in LE modeLaurent Dufour1-2/+2
Relocation's code is not working in little endian mode because the r_info field, which is a 64 bits value, should be read from the right offset. The current code is optimized to read the r_info field as a 32 bits value starting at the middle of the double word (offset 12). When running in LE mode, the read value is not correct since only the MSB is read. This patch removes this optimization which consist to deal with a 32 bits value instead of a 64 bits one. This way it works in big and little endian mode. Signed-off-by: Laurent Dufour <ldufour@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-09-15powerpc: Make the 64-bit kernel as a position-independent executablePaul Mackerras1-0/+87
This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set. This involves processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at, since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for which there are dynamic relocations. (In fact the linker does fill in such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables, so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.) The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr), where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be run. In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again when starting the main kernel. This means that reloc_offset() returns 0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running at), which necessitated a few adjustments. This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is simpler. With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet). With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical address 0 and run there. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
