Tom Rini 587e4a4296 kconfig / kbuild: Re-sync with Linux 4.19
Align Kconfig and Kbuild logic to Linux 4.19 release with minimal impact
on files outside of this scope.

Our previous Kconfig sync was done by commit 5972ff077e ("kconfig /
kbuild: re-sync with Linux 4.18").

In this particular re-sync in order to keep clang support working a
number of related changes needed to be pulled in that had been missed
previously.  Not all of these changes we easily traceable and so have

Bin Meng dd4611dea4 x86: Ensure no instruction sets of MMX/SSE are generated in 64-bit build
With the '-march=core2' fix, it seems that we have some luck that
the 64-bit U-Boot boots again. However if we examine the disassembly
codes there are still SSE instructions elsewhere which means passing
cpu type to GCC is not enough to prevent it from generating these
instructions. A simple test case is doing a 'bootefi selftest' from
the U-Boot shell and it leads to a reset too.

The 'bootefi selftest' reset is even seen with the image created by
the relative older GCC 5.4.0, the one shipped by Ubuntu 16.04.

The reset actually originates from undefined instruction exception
caused by these SSE instructions. To keep U-Boot as a bootloader as
simple as possible, we don't want to handle such advanced SIMD stuff.
To make sure no MMX/SSE instruction sets are generated, tell GCC not
to do this. Note AVX is out of the question as CORE2 is old enough
to support AVX yet.

Bin Meng a139cc1865 x86: Specify -march=core2 to build 64-bit U-Boot proper
With newer kernel.org GCC (7.3.0 or 8.1.0), the u-boot.rom image
built for qemu-x86_64 target does not boot. It keeps resetting
soon after the 32-bit SPL jumps to 64-bit proper. Debugging shows
that the reset happens inside env_callback_init().

000000000113dd85 <env_callback_init>:
 113dd85:       41 54                   push   %r12
 113dd87:       55                      push   %rbp
 113dd88:       31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax
 113dd8a:       53                      push   %rbx
 113dd8b:       0f 57 c0                xorps  %xmm0,%xmm0

Executing "xorps %xmm0,%xmm0" causes CPU to immediately reset.
However older GCC like 5.4.0 (the one shipped by Ubuntu 16.04)
does not generate such instructions that utilizes SSE for this
function - env_callback_init() and U-Boot boots without any issue.
Explicitly specifying -march=core2 for newer GCC allows U-Boot
proper to boot again. Examine assembly codes of env_callback_init
and there is no SSE instruction in that function hence U-Boot
continues to boot.

core2 seems to be the oldest arch in GCC that supports 64-bit.
Like 32-bit U-Boot build we use -march=i386 which is the most
conservative cpu type so that the image can run on any x86
processor, let's do the same for the 64-bit U-Boot build.

Alexander Graf 7e21fbca26 efi_loader: Rename sections to allow for implicit data
Some times gcc may generate data that is then used within code that may
be part of an efi runtime section. That data could be jump tables,
constants or strings.

In order to make sure we catch these, we need to ensure that gcc emits
them into a section that we can relocate together with all the other
efi runtime bits. This only works if the -ffunction-sections and
-fdata-sections flags are passed and the efi runtime functions are
in a section that starts with ".text".

Up to now we had all efi runtime bits in sections that did not
interfere with the normal section naming scheme, but this forces
us to do so. Hence we need to move the efi_loader text/data/rodata
sections before the global *(.text*) catch-all section.

With this patch in place, we should hopefully have an easier time
to extend the efi runtime functionality in the future.

Tom Rini 83d290c56f SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

Bin Meng e719b6b0f8 x86: Enforce toolchain to generate 64-bit codes for 64-bit U-Boot
64-bit U-Boot image is a combination of 32-bit U-Boot (SPL) plus
64-bit U-Boot (proper). For the U-Boot proper, it has be compiled
to 64-bit object codes. Attempting to use a toolchain to compile
64-bit U-Boot for qemu-x86_64, like kernel.org 4.9 i386-linux-gcc,
fails with the following errors:

  arch/x86/cpu/intel_common/microcode.c:79:2: error: PIC register
  clobbered by 'ebx' in 'asm'

The issue is because toolchain is preconfigured to generate code
for the 32-bit architecture (i386), and currently '-m64' is missing
in the makefile fragment. Using kernel.org 4.9 x86_64-linux-gcc
works out of the box, since it is preconfigured to generate 64-bit
codes.

When compiling U-Boot SPL, '-m32' is passed to the toolchain, no
mater 32-bit (i386-linux-) or 64-bit (x86_64-linux) the toolchain
is preconfigured to generate.

This patch separates compilation of the helloworld.efi file from
including it in the u-boot binary for "bootefi hello". It also modifies
the efi_loader test case to enable travis to pick up the compiled file.
Because we're now no longer bloating the resulting u-boot binary, we
can enable compilation always, giving us good travis test coverage.

Masahiro Yamada cd2e46cb38 kbuild: add CONFIG_ prefix to USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC
Before this commit, USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC was defined in
arch-specific config.mk and referenced in
arch/$(ARCH)/lib/Makefile.

We are not happy about parsing config.mk again and again.
We have to keep the same behavior with a different way.

By adding "CONFIG_" prefix, this macro appears
in include/autoconf.mk, include/spl-autoconf.mk.
(And treating USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC as CONFIG macro
is reasonable enough.)

Tegra SoC family defined USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC as "yes"
in arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra*/config.mk,
whereas did not define it in arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra*/config.mk.

It means Tegra enables PRIVATE_LIBGCC only for SPL.
We can describe the same behavior by adding

  #ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
  # define CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC
  #endif

to include/configs/tegra-common.h.

Gabe Black 36b2409a3d x86: Wrap small helper functions from libgcc to avoid an ABI mismatch
When gcc compiles some 64 bit operations on a 32 bit machine, it generates
calls to small functions instead of instructions which do the job directly.
Those functions are defined in libgcc and transparently provide whatever
functionality was necessary. Unfortunately, u-boot can be built with a
non-standard ABI when libgcc isn't. More specifically, u-boot uses
-mregparm. When the u-boot and libgcc are linked together, very confusing
bugs can crop up, for instance seemingly normal integer division or modulus
getting the wrong answer or even raising a spurious divide by zero
exception.

This change borrows (steals) a technique and some code from coreboot which
solves this problem by creating wrappers which translate the calling
convention when calling the functions in libgcc. Unfortunately that means
that these instructions which had already been turned into functions have
even more overhead, but more importantly it makes them work properly.

To find all of the functions that needed wrapping, u-boot was compiled
without linking in libgcc. All the symbols the linker complained were
undefined were presumed to be the symbols that are needed from libgcc.
These were a subset of the symbols covered by the coreboot code, so it was
used unmodified.

To prevent symbols which are provided by libgcc but not currently wrapped
(or even known about) from being silently linked against by code generated
by libgcc, a new copy of libgcc is created where all the symbols are
prefixed with __normal_. Without being purposefully wrapped, these symbols
will cause linker errors instead of silently introducing very subtle,
confusing bugs.

Another approach would be to whitelist symbols from libgcc and strip out
all the others. The problem with this approach is that it requires the
white listed symbols to be specified three times, once for objcopy, once so
the linker inserts the wrapped, and once to generate the wrapper itself,
while this implementation needs it to be listed only twice. There isn't
much tangible difference in what each approach produces, so this one was
preferred.

Wolfgang Denk cca4e4aec1 Reduce build times
U-Boot Makefiles contain a number of tests for compiler features etc.
which so far are executed again and again.  On some architectures
(especially ARM) this results in a large number of calls to gcc.

This patch makes sure to run such tests only once, thus largely
reducing the number of "execve" system calls.

Example: number of "execve" system calls for building the "P2020DS"
(Power Architecture) and "qong" (ARM) boards, measured as:
	-> strace -f -e trace=execve -o /tmp/foo ./MAKEALL <board>
	-> grep execve /tmp/foo | wc -l

	Before: After:	Reduction:
==================================
P2020DS 20555	15205	-26%
qong	31692	14490	-54%

As a result, built times are significantly reduced, typically by
30...50%.

Scott Wood 83b7e2a7f2 Handle most LDSCRIPT setting centrally
Currently, some linker scripts are found by common code in config.mk.
Some are found using CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT, but the code for that is
sometimes in arch config.mk and sometimes in board config.mk.  Some
are found using an arch-specific rule for looking in CPUDIR, etc.

Further, the powerpc config.mk rule relied on CONFIG_NAND_SPL
when it really wanted CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT -- which covered up the fact
that not all NAND_U_BOOT builds actually wanted CPUDIR/u-boot-nand.lds.

Replace all of this -- except for a handful of boards that are actually
selecting a linker script in a unique way -- with centralized ldscript
finding.

If board code specifies LDSCRIPT, that will be used.
Otherwise, if CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT is specified, that will be used.

If neither of these are specified, then the central config.mk will
check for the existence of the following, in order:

$(TOPDIR)/board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds (only if CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT)
$(TOPDIR)/$(CPUDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds (only if CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT)
$(TOPDIR)/board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot.lds
$(TOPDIR)/$(CPUDIR)/u-boot.lds

Some boards (sc3, cm5200, munices) provided their own u-boot.lds that
were dead code, because they were overridden by a CPUDIR u-boot.lds under
the old powerpc rules.  These boards' own u-boot.lds have bitrotted and
no longer work -- these lds files have been removed.
