[PATCH] 2.4: 32-bit/64-bit ELF format selection for building

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

 Here's support for selection between 64-bit and 32-bit ELF format for
building for 2.4, complementing the patch for 2.6 I've sent previously.  
This was tested with a couple of DECstation, Malta and SWARM
configurations using a snapshot of GCC 3.5 and a snapshot of binutils
2.15.91 or binutils 2.13.2.1.  This is ready for inclusion as well.

  Maciej

+Use 64-bit ELF format for building
+CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64
+  A 64-bit kernel is usually built using the 64-bit ELF binary object
+  format as it's one that allows arbitrary 64-bit constructs.  For
+  kernels that are loaded within the KSEG compatibility segments the
+  32-bit ELF format can optionally be used resulting in a somewhat

+  toolchain and since binutils 2.14 it does not even work at all.
