Message-Id: <26128d31856e93dc769ca1fc1bfda34c2fdad6d7.1220338208.git.tony@bakeyournoodle.com> Date: Tue, 2 Sep 2008 16:50:38 +1000 (EST) From: Tony Breeds <tony@...eyournoodle.com> To: <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, <linuxppc-dev@...abs.org>, Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@...nel.crashing.org> Cc: Segher Boessenkool <segher@...nel.crashing.org> Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Work around the fomit-frame-pointer bug This bug is causing random crashes (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414). -fomit-frame-pointer is only needed on powerpc when -pg is also supplied. This patch ensures that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is only selected by ftrace. When CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled we also pass -mno-sched-epilog to work around the codegen bug Patch based on work by: Andreas Schwab <schwab@...e.de> Segher Boessenkool <segher@...nel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Tony Breeds <tony@...eyournoodle.com> --- arch/powerpc/Makefile | 5 +++++ arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile | 7 ++++--- arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile | 2 +- lib/Kconfig.debug | 6 +++--- 4 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/Makefile b/arch/powerpc/Makefile index 9155c93..c6be19e 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/Makefile +++ b/arch/powerpc/Makefile @@ -116,6 +116,11 @@ ifeq ($(CONFIG_6xx),y) KBUILD_CFLAGS += -mcpu=powerpc endif +# Work around a gcc code-gen bug with -fno-omit-frame-pointer. +ifeq ($(CONFIG_FTRACE),y) +KBUILD_CFLAGS += -mno-sched-epilog +endif + cpu-as-$(CONFIG_4xx) += -Wa,-m405 cpu-as-$(CONFIG_6xx) += -Wa,-maltivec cpu-as-$(CONFIG_POWER4) += -Wa,-maltivec diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile b/arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile index 64f5948..946daea 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/Makefile @@ -14,12 +14,13 @@ endif ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE # Do not trace early boot code -CFLAGS_REMOVE_cputable.o = -pg -CFLAGS_REMOVE_prom_init.o = -pg +CFLAGS_REMOVE_cputable.o = -pg -mno-sched-epilog +CFLAGS_REMOVE_prom_init.o = -pg -mno-sched-epilog +CFLAGS_REMOVE_btext.o = -pg -mno-sched-epilog ifdef CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE # dynamic ftrace setup. -CFLAGS_REMOVE_ftrace.o = -pg +CFLAGS_REMOVE_ftrace.o = -pg -mno-sched-epilog endif endif diff --git a/arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile b/arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile index 58ecdd7..be60d64 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile +++ b/arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ CFLAGS_bootx_init.o += -fPIC ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE # Do not trace early boot code -CFLAGS_REMOVE_bootx_init.o = -pg +CFLAGS_REMOVE_bootx_init.o = -pg -mno-sched-epilog endif obj-y += pic.o setup.o time.o feature.o pci.o \ diff --git a/lib/Kconfig.debug b/lib/Kconfig.debug index 800ac84..413eaca 100644 --- a/lib/Kconfig.debug +++ b/lib/Kconfig.debug @@ -394,7 +394,7 @@ config LOCKDEP bool depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && STACKTRACE_SUPPORT && LOCKDEP_SUPPORT select STACKTRACE - select FRAME_POINTER if !X86 && !MIPS + select FRAME_POINTER if !X86 && !MIPS && !PPC select KALLSYMS select KALLSYMS_ALL @@ -676,13 +676,13 @@ config FAULT_INJECTION_STACKTRACE_FILTER depends on FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS && STACKTRACE_SUPPORT depends on !X86_64 select STACKTRACE - select FRAME_POINTER + select FRAME_POINTER if !PPC help Provide stacktrace filter for fault-injection capabilities config LATENCYTOP bool "Latency measuring infrastructure" - select FRAME_POINTER if !MIPS + select FRAME_POINTER if !MIPS && !PPC select KALLSYMS select KALLSYMS_ALL select STACKTRACE -- 1.5.6.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
