That # means the lack of AT_BASE_PLATFORM is a user-visible artifact of the # fact that the kernel is using DT CPU features, which we don't want. # # So set it in the DT CPU features code also. # # This results in eg: # $ LD_SHOW_AUXV=1 /bin/true | grep "AT_.*PLATFORM" # AT_PLATFORM: power9 # AT_BASE_PLATFORM:power9 # # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman # Reviewed-by: Nicholas Piggin # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 e4b79900222b8cccd4da4a7a89581f0e1b764ed2 # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_85xx_mpc8540_ads_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- 85xx/mpc8540_ads_defconfig # make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_85xx_mpc8540_ads_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- INFO: Uncompressed kernel (size 0x486088) overlaps the address of the wrapper(0x400000) INFO: Fixing the link_address of wrapper to (0x500000) INFO: Uncompressed kernel (size 0x475a44) overlaps the address of the wrapper(0x400000) INFO: Fixing the link_address of wrapper to (0x500000) Image Name: Linux-4.16.0-rc2-ge4b7990 Created: Wed Mar 14 22:49:50 2018 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2343836 Bytes = 2288.90 kB = 2.24 MB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000 Image Name: Linux-4.16.0-rc2-ge4b7990 Created: Wed Mar 14 22:49:51 2018 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2367361 Bytes = 2311.88 kB = 2.26 MB Load Address: 00500000 Entry Point: 0050020c Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_85xx_mpc8540_ads_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 # Build took: 0:01:41.121763
