These patches add the MEI/Panasonic MN10300/AM33 architecture to the Linux
kernel.
The first patch suppresses AOUT support in the kernel if CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=n
and CONFIG_IA32_AOUT=n. MN10300 does not support the AOUT binfmt, so the ELF
binfmt should not be permitted to go looking for AOUT libraries to load, nor
should random bits of the kernel depend on asm/a.out.h.
The second patch adds the architecture itself, to be selected by ARCH=mn10300
on the make command line.
The patches can also be downloaded from:
http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/mn10300/mn10300-arch.tar.bz2
The patch to include/asm-generic/Kbuild.asm doesn't seem to be required.
+#elif defined(__mn10300__)
Please use a CONFIG_ variable in such cases.
The parts outside arch/mn10300/ and include/asm-mn10300/ (except for the
trivial "&& {,!}MN10300" Kconfig changes) should go separately through
the maintainers or get ACKs from the maintainers, even more since they
also contain cleanups like
- .regions = {ERASEINFO(0x01000,64),
+ .regions = {
+ ERASEINFO(0x01000,64),
}
--- a/include/linux/kprobes.h
+++ b/include/linux/kprobes.h
...
+extern void __kprobes arch_remove_kprobe(struct kprobe *p);
This looks as if it will break compilation on avr32 and sparc64.
A suitable toolchain can be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/gnupro/AM33/
...
What is the status of support in upstream GNU binutils and GNU gcc?
