This is the interesting dichotomy; the code is only required truly on devices where Thumb2 isn't available, right? What we're after here is a build fix more than anything due to an overzealous, over-inclusive configuration that can't be easily split. If the ARM code works on the devices it's intended for, excellent. We can fix the weird inclusions of the code later (and maybe if we're splitting v6_v7 into just v6 and v7 configs for some other reason, and all the users go away, maybe we should bump v7 to default to Thumb2? :)

It is also used on the i.MX51 Eukrea board. I asked Eric (Cced) to test it in thumb2 mode, no response so far. I don't know the reason why he uses FIQ mode instead of SDMA, maybe simply historical reasons. Sascha

If we can lose that requirement then the only thing in the way is the phyCORE support, which goes away on a "pure" v7 config anyway, correct? I was just thinking, why not split v6_v7_defconfig into a v7_defconfig losing those boards anyway and enable Thumb2 by default while we're at it? It would mean more testing gets done and this error would crop up both more often, but be less surprising and won't take a year to revisit ;) Pure v7 config would still include Tegra, OMAP3/4, i.MX5 onwards and the newer chips. One zImage for v6_v7 is still possible but I don't know if anyone really has the idea in their heads that you'd want to boot the same kernel on i.MX3 as well as i.MX6Q even if they do share drivers to some degree.

Having many SoCs in a single defconfig makes this fact more obvious and often breaks compilation if their code is not multi SoC safe. I don't really want to lose this. Hopefully we will soon only have a handfull of ARM defconfigs anyway. Until this is the case I vote for not splitting up defconfigs. Then we can have things like thumb2_defconfig, armv6_defconfig,...

Because FIQ handlers get copied straight into the vectors page to the FIQ vector entry point, FIQ handlers in a Thumb-2 kernel must start in Thumb-2. A Thumb-2 kernel enters all exception vectors in Thumb-2. This patch adapts the mxc SSI FIQ code suitable for a Thumb-2 kernel. The code contained use of r13 (sp) which isn't allowed in Thumb-2. r11 and r13 have been swapped throughout the file to work around this. Currently, the way that the function to be copied is located using labels is a bit ugly: we cannot annotate the FIQ handler properly as a Thumb-2 function, because this would set bit 0 of the label address seen by the linker, causing off-by-one errors when copying the function. Ideally, the copy would be done with fncpy(), but this would require changes to the common set_fiq_handler() function. For now, we don't touch this. References to locally-defined global symbols with adr and ldr may not be accepted by the assembler in Thumb-2. Local shadow symbols are added to work around this. Signed-off-by: Dave Martin <dave.martin@linaro.org> --- Note that while this code builds, I don't know the hardware well enough to be confident testing it. Review and testing from anyone with experience of imx SoC audio would be appreciated. arch/arm/plat-mxc/ssi-fiq.S | 89 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------- 1 files changed, 50 insertions(+), 39 deletions(-)
