Linus Torvalds ed5062ddaa Merge branch 'uapi-prep' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers Pull UAPI disintegration fixes from David Howells: "There are three main parts: (1) I found I needed some more fixups in the wake of testing Arm64 (some asm/unistd.h files had weird guards that caused problems - mostly in arches for which I don't have a compiler) and some __KERNEL__ splitting needed to take place in Arm64. (2) I found that c6x was missing some __KERNEL__ guards in its asm/signal.h. Mark Salter pointed me at a tree with a patch to remove that file entirely and use the asm-generic variant instead. (3) Lastly, m68k turned out to have a header installation problem due to it lacking a kvm_para.h file. The conditional installation bits for linux/kvm_para.h, linux/kvm.h and linux/a.out.h weren't very well specified - and didn't work if an arch didn't have the asm/ version of that file, but there was an asm-generic/ version. It seems the "ifneq $((wildcard ...),)" for each of those three headers in include/kernel/Kbuild is invoked twice during header installation, and the second time it matches on the just installed asm-generic/kvm_para.h file and thus incorrectly installs linux/kvm_para.h as well. Most arches actually have an asm/kvm_para.h, so this wasn't detectable in those." * 'uapi-prep' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers: UAPI: Fix conditional header installation handling (notably kvm_para.h on m68k) c6x: remove c6x signal.h UAPI: Split compound conditionals containing __KERNEL__ in Arm64 UAPI: Fix the guards on various asm/unistd.h files c6x: make dsk6455 the default config		2012-10-07 07:55:10 +09:00

OpenRISC Linux
==============

This is a port of Linux to the OpenRISC class of microprocessors; the initial
target architecture, specifically, is the 32-bit OpenRISC 1000 family (or1k).

For information about OpenRISC processors and ongoing development:

	website		http://openrisc.net

Build instructions for OpenRISC toolchain and Linux
===================================================

In order to build and run Linux for OpenRISC, you'll need at least a basic
toolchain and, perhaps, the architectural simulator.  Steps to get these bits
in place are outlined here.

1)  The toolchain can be obtained from openrisc.net.  Instructions for building
a toolchain can be found at:

http://openrisc.net/toolchain-build.html

2) or1ksim (optional)

or1ksim is the architectural simulator which will allow you to actually run
your OpenRISC Linux kernel if you don't have an OpenRISC processor at hand.

	git clone git://openrisc.net/jonas/or1ksim-svn

	cd or1ksim
	./configure --prefix=$OPENRISC_PREFIX
	make
	make install

3)  Linux kernel

Build the kernel as usual

	make ARCH=openrisc defconfig
	make ARCH=openrisc

4)  Run in architectural simulator

Grab the or1ksim platform configuration file (from the or1ksim source) and
together with your freshly built vmlinux, run your kernel with the following
incantation:

	sim -f arch/openrisc/or1ksim.cfg vmlinux

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Terminology
===========

In the code, the following particles are used on symbols to limit the scope
to more or less specific processor implementations:

openrisc: the OpenRISC class of processors
or1k:     the OpenRISC 1000 family of processors
or1200:   the OpenRISC 1200 processor
