From 147c05168fc86e824ccd1c0a02b40843e3cbca88 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cédric Le Goater Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2014 09:23:39 +0200 Subject: powerpc/boot: Add support for 64bit little endian wrapper The code is only slightly modified : entry points now use the FIXUP_ENDIAN trampoline to switch endian order. The 32bit wrapper is kept for big endian kernels and 64bit is enforced for little endian kernels with a PPC64_BOOT_WRAPPER config option. The linker script is generated using the kernel preprocessor flags to make use of the CONFIG_* definitions and the wrapper script is modified to take into account the new elf64ppc format. Finally, the zImage file is compiled as a position independent executable (-pie) which makes it loadable at any address by the firmware.
