| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We should better use already defined flags from processor-flags.h instead of defining own ones [>>> object code check >>>] original md5sum: 129f24be6df396fb7d8bf998c01fc716 arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.o text data bss dec hex filename 705 48 45056 45809 b2f1 arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.o patched md5sum: 129f24be6df396fb7d8bf998c01fc716 arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64-new.o text data bss dec hex filename 705 48 45056 45809 b2f1 arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64-new.o [<<< object code check <<<] Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Acked-by: H.

* x86: cleanup boot-heap usageAlexander van Heukelum2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel decompressor wrapper uses memory located beyond the end of the image. This might lead to hard to debug problems, but even if it can be proven to be safe, it is at the very least unclean. I don't see any advantages either, unless you count it not being zeroed out as an advantage. This patch moves the boot-heap area to the bss segment.

* x86: Fix boot protocol KEEP_SEGMENTS check.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel only ever supports 1 version of the boot protocol so there is no need to check the boot protocol revision to see if a feature is supported. Both x86 and x86_64 support the same boot protocol so we need to implement the KEEP_SEGMENTS on x86_64 as well. It isn't just paravirt bootloaders that could use this functionality.
