From 26584853a44c58f3d6ac7360d697a2ddcd1a3efa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas Date: Sat, 30 May 2009 14:00:18 +0100 Subject: Add core support for ARMv6/v7 big-endian Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian (byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support: - setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and user threads - big-endian page table walking - REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault processing as they are still little-endian format - Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to little-endian Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas --- arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) (limited to 'arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h') diff --git a/arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h b/arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h index 4a4290f7b4a..67b833c9b6b 100644 --- a/arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h +++ b/arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h @@ -50,6 +50,7 @@ #define PSR_F_BIT 0x00000040 #define PSR_I_BIT 0x00000080 #define PSR_A_BIT 0x00000100 +#define PSR_E_BIT 0x00000200 #define PSR_J_BIT 0x01000000 #define PSR_Q_BIT 0x08000000 #define PSR_V_BIT 0x10000000 @@ -72,6 +73,15 @@ #define PSR_IT_MASK 0x0600fc00 /* If-Then execution state mask */ #define PSR_ENDIAN_MASK 0x00000200 /* Endianness state mask */ +/* + * Default endianness state + */ +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 +#define PSR_ENDSTATE PSR_E_BIT +#else +#define PSR_ENDSTATE 0 +#endif + #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ /* -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
