Even though we do enable AD bit in arc_init_IRQ() we need to do it in early ASM code otherwise we may face unaligned data until we reach arc_init_IRQ() because GCC starting from v8.1.0 actively generates unaligned data as it assumes that: * ARCv2 always has support of unaliged data * This support is turned on in runtime Signed-off-by: Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/arc/kernel/head.S | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) diff --git a/arch/arc/kernel/head.S b/arch/arc/kernel/head.S index 8b90d25a15cc..d5b7a572365a 100644 --- a/arch/arc/kernel/head.S +++ b/arch/arc/kernel/head.S @@ -17,6 +17,9 @@ #include <asm/entry.h> #include <asm/arcregs.h> #include <asm/cache.h> +#ifdef CONFIG_ISA_ARCV2 +#include <asm/irqflags-arcv2.h> +#endif .macro CPU_EARLY_SETUP @@ -47,6 +50,13 @@ sr r5, [ARC_REG_DC_CTRL] 1: + +#ifdef CONFIG_ISA_ARCV2 + ; Enable handling of unaligned access in the CPU as by default + ; this HW feature is disabled while GCC starting from 8.1.0 + ; unconditionally uses it for ARC HS cores. + flag 1 << STATUS_AD_BIT +#endif .endm .section .init.text, "ax",@progbits -- 2.14.5 _______________________________________________ linux-snps-arc mailing list linux-snps-arc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-snps-arc
