The .data segment stored in ROM is only copied to RAM once at boot time
and never referenced afterwards. This is arguably a suboptimal usage of
ROM resources.
This patch allows for compressing the .data segment before storing it
into ROM and decompressing it to RAM rather than simply copying it,
saving on precious ROM space.
Because global data is not available yet (obviously) we must allocate
decompressor workspace memory on the stack. The .bss area is used as a
stack area for that purpose before it is cleared. The required stack
frame is 9568 bytes for __inflate_kernel_data() alone, so make sure
the .bss is large enough to cope with that plus extra room for called
functions or fail the build.
Those numbers were picked arbitrarily based on the above 9568 byte
stack frame:
10240 (2.5 * PAGE_SIZE): used to override -Wframe-larger-than whose
default value is 1024.
12288 (3 * PAGE_SIZE): minimum .bss size to contain the stack.

We currently define OBJCOPYFLAGS in the top-level arm Makefile, and thus
these flags will be passed to all uses of objcopy, kernel-wide, for
which they are not explicitly overridden. The flags we set are intended
for converting a few ELF files into raw binaries, and thus the flags
chosen are problematic for some other uses which do not expect a raw
binary result, e.g. the upcoming lkdtm rodata test:
http://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2016/06/08/2
This patch localises the objcopy flags such that they are only used for
the cases we require them for today.

Commit 3939f33450 ("ARM: 8418/1: add boot image dependencies to
not generate invalid images") fixed bad image generation for the
parallel building, but as its side effect, Kbuild now descends into
arch/arm/boot/ again and again, duplicating the log messages.
It looks clumsy, so let's display the same message only once.
This commit moves the log rules from arch/arm/boot/Makefile to
arch/arm/Makefile. I did not delete them completely because *Image

After that, commit 19514fc665 ('arm, kbuild: make "make install"

"(z)i".
It is true that 'i' and 'zi' might be still useful as shorthands

Install targets (install, zinstall, uinstall) on arm have a dependency
to vmlinux. This may cause parts of the kernel to be rebuilt during
installation. We must avoid this since this may run as root. Install
targets "ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT MODIFY THE SOURCE TREE." as Linus
emphasized this in:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/10/600
So on arm and maybe other archs we need the same as for x86:
1648e4f8 x86, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux
This patch fixes this for arm. Dependencies are removed and instead a
check to install.sh is added for the files that are needed.
This issue was uncovered by this build error where the -j option is
used in conjunction with install targets:
$ make <makeflags>
$ make <makeflags> zinstall
...
DEPMOD
Usage: .../scripts/depmod.sh /sbin/depmod <kernelrelease>
(INSTALL_MOD_PATH and INSTALL_PATH variables set, so no root perms
required in this case.)
The problem is that zinstall on arm due to its dependency to vmlinux
does a prepare/prepare3 and finally does a forced rewrite of
kernel.release even if it exists already.
Rebuilding kernel.release removes it first and then recreates it. This
might race with another parallel make job running depmod.
So this patch should fix this one too.
Also quoting $(KERNELRELEASE) arg for install.sh as this messes
argument order in case it is empty (which is the case if the kernel
was not built yet).

The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a
32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic
number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address.
This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the
size of the initial padding NOPs changes.
Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to
ARM.
In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a
sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point.
As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no
special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the
Thumb-2 case.

As long as the zImage is placed within the 128MB range from the start of
memory, ZRELADDR (Address where the decompressed kernel will be placed,
usually == PHYS_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET) can be determined at run-time by
masking PC with 0xf80000000.
Running through all the Makefile.boot, all those zreladdr-y
addresses == 0x[0-f][08]00_0000 + TEXT_OFFSET can be determined at
run-time.
Option CONFIG_AUTO_ZRELADDR and CONFIG_ZRELADDR are introduced,
CONFIG_ZRELADDR _must_ be explicitly specified if:
- ((zreladdr-y - TEXT_OFFSET) & ~0xf8000000) != 0, which means
masking PC with 0xf8000000 will result in an incorrect address.
Currently this is only a problem on u300.
- or the assumption of the zImage being loaded by the bootloader within
the first 128MB of RAM is incorrect
- or when ZBOOT_ROM is used, where the above assumption is usually wrong.
