* | x86: rename X86_GENERICARCH to X86_32_NON_STANDARDIngo Molnar2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | X86_GENERICARCH is a misnomer - it contains non-PC 32-bit architectures that are not included in the default build. Rename it to X86_32_NON_STANDARD. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* | x86/Voyager: remove X86_FIND_SMP_CONFIG Kconfig quirkIngo Molnar2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | x86/Voyager had this Kconfig quirk: config X86_FIND_SMP_CONFIG def_bool y depends on X86_MPPARSE || X86_VOYAGER Which splits off the find_smp_config() callback into a build-time quirk. Voyager should use the existing x86_quirks.mach_find_smp_config() callback to introduce SMP-config quirks. NUMAQ-32 and VISWS already use this. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* | x86: generalize boot_cpu_idIngo Molnar2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | x86/Voyager can boot on non-zero processors. While that can probably be fixed by properly remapping the physical CPU IDs, keep boot_cpu_id for now for easier transition - and expand it to all of x86. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* | x86: replace CONFIG_X86_SMP with CONFIG_SMPIngo Molnar2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The x86/Voyager subarch used to have this distinction between 'x86 SMP support' and 'Voyager SMP support': config X86_SMP bool depends on SMP && ((X86_32 && !X86_VOYAGER) || X86_64) This is a pointless distinction - Voyager can (and already does) use smp_ops to implement various SMP quirks it has - and it can be extended more to cover all the specialities of Voyager. So remove this complication in the Kconfig space. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* | x86: move mach-default/*.h files to asm/Ingo Molnar2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are getting rid of subarchitecture support - move the hook files to asm/. (These are now stale and should be replaced with more explicit runtime mechanisms - but the transition is simpler this way.) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This avoids multiple calls to the hypervisor detection function. This patch adds function to detect if we are running under VMware. The current way to check if we are on VMware is following, # check if "hypervisor present bit" is set, if so read the 0x40000000 cpuid leaf and check for "VMwareVMware" signature. # if the above fails, check the DMI vendors name for "VMware" string if we find one we query the VMware hypervisor port to check if we are under VMware. The DMI + "VMware hypervisor port check" is needed for older VMware products, which don't implement the hypervisor signature cpuid leaf. Also note that since we are checking for the DMI signature the hypervisor port should never be accessed on native hardware. This patch also adds a hypervisor_get_tsc_freq function, instead of calibrating the frequency which can be error prone in virtualized environment, we ask the hypervisor for it. We get the frequency from the hypervisor by accessing the hypervisor port if we are running on VMware. Other hypervisors too can add code to the generic routine to get frequency on their platform.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap to malfunction if it is initialized before the relocation. To fix this, VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation, which must happen after parsing early boot parameters. This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware. Signed-off-by: Zachary Amsden <zach@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* | kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCOREVivek Goyal2008-10-20
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. For example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table. So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup calgary iommu accordingly. o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files. (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file otherwise that would have been the best place). o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in second kernel without KEXEC being enabled. o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for elfcorehdr_addr. I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh. Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not broken on sh.

Interrupt-remapping must be enabled before enabling x2apic, this is needed to ensure that IO interrupts continue to work properly after the cpu mode is changed to x2apic(which uses 32bit extended physical/cluster apic id). On systems where apicid's are > 255, BIOS can handover the control to OS in x2apic mode. Or if the OS handover was in legacy xapic mode, check if it is capable of x2apic mode. And if we succeed in enabling Interrupt-remapping, then we can enable x2apic mode in the CPU.

The built-in command line can override the one provided by the boot loader, for those cases where the boot loader is broken or it is difficult to change the command line in the the boot loader. H.

This version changes absolutely nothing if CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not set (the default). Also, no space is appended even when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is set, but the builtin string is empty. This is less sloppy all the way around, IMHO. Note that I use the same option names as on other arches for this feature.

Certainly, if we support such processors, then we should start with _PAGE_NX initially clear in __supported_pte_flags, and then set it once we've established that the processor does indeed support NX. That will prevent early_ioremap - or anything else - from trying to set it. The simple fix is to simply call check_efer() earlier.

Move it a bit earlier. Also change the CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K quirk to operate on the e820 table directly instead of messing with early reservations - this handles overlaps (which do occur in this low range of RAM) more gracefully.
