Hendrik Brueckner 1198c6d45a initramfs: Really fix build break on symbol-prefixed archs
Define the __initramfs_size variable using VMLINUX_SYMBOL() to take care
of symbol-prefixed architectures, for example, blackfin.

Geert Uytterhoeven 96f9359345 initramfs: Fix initramfs size for 32-bit arches
Commit ffe8018c34 ("initramfs: fix initramfs size calculation") broke
32-bit big-endian arches like (on ARAnyM):

    VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(3,1)
    Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:

    Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(3,1)

As pointed out by Kerstin Jonsson <kerstin.jonsson@ericsson.com>, this
is due to CONFIG_32BIT not being defined, so the initramfs size field is
done as a 64-bit quad.  On little-endian (like x86) this doesn matter,
but on a big-endian machine the 32-bit reads will see the (zero) high
bits.

Only mips, s390, and score set CONFIG_32BIT for 32-bit builds, so fix it for
all other 32-bit arches by inverting the logic and testing for CONFIG_64BIT,
which should be defined on all 64-bit arches.

Hendrik Brueckner ffe8018c34 initramfs: fix initramfs size calculation
The size of a built-in initramfs is calculated in init/initramfs.c by
"__initramfs_end - __initramfs_start".  Those symbols are defined in the
linker script include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h:

#define INIT_RAM_FS                                                     \
        . = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE);                                           \
        VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__initramfs_start) = .;                          \
        *(.init.ramfs)                                                  \
        VMLINUX_SYMBOL(__initramfs_end) = .;

If the initramfs file has an odd number of bytes, the "__initramfs_end"
symbol points to an odd address, for example, the symbols in the
System.map might look like:

    0000000000572000 T __initramfs_start
    00000000005bcd05 T __initramfs_end	  <-- odd address

At least on s390 this causes a problem:

Certain s390 instructions, especially instructions for loading addresses
(larl) or branch addresses must be on even addresses.  The compiler loads
the symbol addresses with the "larl" instruction.  This instruction sets
the last bit to 0 and, therefore, for odd size files, the calculated size
is one byte less than it should be:

    0000000000540a9c <populate_rootfs>:
      540a9c:     eb cf f0 78 00 24       stmg    %r12,%r15,120(%r15),
      540aa2:     c0 10 00 01 8a af       larl    %r1,572000 <__initramfs_start>
      540aa8:     c0 c0 00 03 e1 2e       larl    %r12,5bcd04 <initramfs_end>
                                                  (Instead of  5bcd05)
      ...
      540abe:     1b c1                   sr      %r12,%r1

To fix the problem, this patch introduces the global variable
__initramfs_size, which is calculated in the "usr/initramfs_data.S" file.
The populate_rootfs() function can then use the start marker of the
.init.ramfs section and the value of __initramfs_size for loading the
initramfs.  Because the start marker and size is sufficient, the
__initramfs_end symbol is no longer needed and is removed.

Hendrik Brueckner 6ae64e428f initramfs: generalize initramfs_data.xxx.S variants
Remove initramfs_data.{lzo,lzma,gz,bz2}.S variants and use a common
implementation in initramfs_data.S.  The common implementation expects the
file name of the initramfs to be defined in INITRAMFS_IMAGE.

Change the Makefile to set the INITRAMFS_IMAGE define symbol according
to the selected compression method.

Alain Knaff a26ee60f90 bzip2/lzma: fix built-in initramfs vs CONFIG_RD_GZIP
Impact: Resolves build failures in some configurations

Makes it possible to disable CONFIG_RD_GZIP . In that case, the
built-in initramfs will be compressed by whatever compressor is
available (bzip2 or lzma) or left uncompressed if none is available.

It also removes a couple of warnings which occur when no ramdisk
compression at all is chosen.

It also restores the select ZLIB_INFLATE in drivers/block/Kconfig
which somehow came missing. This is needed to activate compilation of
the stuff in zlib_deflate.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
