Hi, Alexander Clouter
Does this revision work for you?
Regards,
Wu Zhangjin
-------------------------------
Changes from v0:
- Revert the '-n "$(VMLINUX_SIZE)"' to avoid the error of "make clean"
- Consider more situations of the VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS
Counter to the documentation for the dash shell, it seems that on my
x86_64 filth under Debian only does 32bit math. As I have configured my
lapdog to use 'dash' for non-interactive tasks I run into problems when
compiling a compressed kernel.
I play with the AR7 platform, so VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS is
0xffffffff94100000, and for a (for example) 4MiB kernel
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS is made out to be:
----
alex@berk:~$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
ffffffff94500000
alex@berk:~$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
80000000003fffff
----
The former is obviously correct whilst the later breaks things royally.
But fortunately, this works for both bash and dash:
----
$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
----
So, we can split the original 64bit string to two parts, and only
calculate the low 32bit part, which is big enough(about 4095 M) for a
normal linux kernel image file, now, we calculate the
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS like this:
1. Append "the high 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as the prefix if it
exists.
2. Get the sum of "the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZE"
with printf "%08x" (08 herein is used to prefix the result with 0...)
The corresponding shell script is:
A=$VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS;
# Append "the high 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as the prefix if it exists.
[ "${A:0:10}" != "${A}" ] && echo -n ${A:2:8};
# Get the sum of "the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZE"
printf "%08x" $(($VMLINUX_SIZE + 0x${A:(-8)}))
This patch fixes vmlinuz kernel builds on systems where only a 32bit
math enabled shell is a available.
