Hello everybody,

      Changes from previous version:
      - removed bogus hyphen from the patch;
      - move ifdefs to crt.S instead of Makefile


      Please find here patch for user land kexec-tools application. Following
      patch makes kexec-tools work for both kexec and kdump. I tested it with 
      git kernel (linus-tree) and Freescale/Logic MPC8360ERDK board with 
      mpc83xx_defconfig kernel config.

      kexec:
      kexec -l vmlinux --command-line="console= ... etc"
      kexec -e

      kdump:
      kexec -p vmlinux_dump --command-line="console=... etc"
      echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger

      I also think that is is reasonable:
      - put GAME_CUBE specific code to separate files;
      - combine  ppc and ppc64 to powerpc directory (I'm planning to do it.
	And that why in some places my patch have ifdefs for PPC64);

Best regards,
Maxim Uvarov.

From: Maxim Uvarov <muvarov@gmail.com>

Linker does not provide some vital functions when building freestanding
applications with a new toolchain, so we have to provide our own CRT.

p.s.
Without the CRT we won't see any build errors (since the purgatory is
linked with --no-undefined), but the purgatory code won't work,
'kexec -e' will just hang the board.


I added option to configure to keep code buildable for old toolchais.
But there should be way to do this automatically.

Thanks,

I'm assuming that the silence that this patch set received,
in contrast to the first revision where there was some quick discussion,
means that everyone is ok with these changes. So I've gone ahead and pushed
them into the tree.

I seem to have an old toolchain :-)

That's because the compiler provides those functions, not the linker.

...in libgcc.  Why don't you link against that?

It would be nice if the build would check if anything unexpectedly
undefined is left.

For the same reason we don't link kernel against libgcc?
I.e. just a matter of taste. There are two camps: those who
argue against libgcc, and those who argue for libgcc.

Hey! You were in this thread! :-)

http://www.mail-archive.com/linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org/msg17224.html

Purgatory is just a small (tiny) piece of code that runs
between kernels. Whether use libgcc or not, personally, I have
no strong opinion. Kexec didn't use it, so we kept it the same
way.

Thanks,
