nds32: Remove the architecture

2022-03-07T12:54:59Z

The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes employees. As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V, and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline support any more. While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

Support for these was added by the following commits: f2c9699f6555 ("riscv: Add STACKPROTECTOR supported") 3c4697982982 ("riscv: Enable LOCKDEP_SUPPORT & fixup TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT"). ed48b297fe21 ("riscv: Enable context tracking") cbb3d91d3bcf ("riscv: Add kmemleak support") Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200810095000.32092-1-tklauser@distanz.ch Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

arch: remove unicore32 port

2020-07-01T09:09:13Z

The unicore32 port do not seem maintained for a long time now, there is no upstream toolchain that can create unicore32 binaries and all the links to prebuilt toolchains for unicore32 are dead. Even compilers that were available are not supported by the kernel anymore. Guenter Roeck says: I have stopped building unicore32 images since v4.19 since there is no available compiler that is still supported by the kernel. I am surprised that support for it has not been removed from the kernel. Remove unicore32 port. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Acked-by: Guenter Roeck

Documentation/features: Refresh the arch support status files

2020-05-25T16:17:11Z

I was manually editing the arch-support.txt for eBPF-JIT, when I realized the refresh script [1] has not been run for a while. Let's fix that, so that the entries are more up-to-date.

powerpc architecture (both 64-bit and 32-bit) supports stack protector mechanism since some time now [see commit 06ec27aea9fc ("powerpc/64: add stack protector support")]. Update stackprotector arch support documentation to reflect the same. Cc: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Bhupesh Sharma Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

Kbuild: rename HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR config variable

2018-06-14T22:15:28Z

HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR should be selected by architectures with stack canary implementation. It is not about the compiler support. For the consistency with commit 050e9baa9dc9 ("Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables"), remove 'CC_' from the config symbol. I moved the 'select' lines to keep the alphabetical sorting. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
