* x86, efi: Retain boot service code until after switching to virtual modeMatthew Garrett2011-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UEFI stands for "Unified Extensible Firmware Interface", where "Firmware" is an ancient African word meaning "Why do something right when you can do it so wrong that children will weep and brave adults will cower before you", and "UEI" is Celtic for "We missed DOS so we burned it into your ROMs". The UEFI specification provides for runtime services (ie, another way for the operating system to be forced to depend on the firmware) and we rely on these for certain trivial tasks such as setting up the bootloader. But some hardware fails to work if we attempt to use these runtime services from physical mode, and so we have to switch into virtual mode. So far so dreadful. The specification makes it clear that the operating system is free to do whatever it wants with boot services code after ExitBootServices() has been called. SetVirtualAddressMap() can't be called until ExitBootServices() has been. So, obviously, a whole bunch of EFI implementations call into boot services code when we do that. Since we've been charmingly naive and trusted that the specification may be somehow relevant to the real world, we've already stuffed a picture of a penguin or something in that address space. And just to make things more entertaining, we've also marked it non-executable. This patch allocates the boot services regions during EFI init and makes sure that they're executable. Then, after SetVirtualAddressMap(), it discards them and everyone lives happily ever after. Except for the ones who have to work on EFI, who live sad lives haunted by the knowledge that someone's eventually going to write yet another firmware specification.

* [IA64] Convert ia64 to use int-ll64.hMatthew Wilcox2009-06-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is generally agreed that it would be beneficial for u64 to be an unsigned long long on all architectures. ia64 (in common with several other 64-bit architectures) currently uses unsigned long. Migrating piecemeal is too painful; this giant patch fixes all compilation warnings and errors that come as a result of switching to use int-ll64.h. Note that userspace will still see __u64 defined as unsigned long. This is important as it affects C++ name mangling.

* kexec: add BSS to resource treeBernhard Walle2007-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the BSS to the resource tree just as kernel text and kernel data are in the resource tree. The main reason behind this is to avoid crashkernel reservation in that area. While it's not strictly necessary to have the BSS in the resource tree (the actual collision detection is done in the reserve_bootmem() function before), the usage of the BSS resource should be presented to the user in /proc/iomem just as Kernel data and Kernel code. Note: The patch currently is only implemented for x86 and ia64 (because efi_initialize_iomem_resources() has the same signature on i386 and ia64).

* [IA64] rework memory attribute aliasingBjorn Helgaas2006-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This closes a couple holes in our attribute aliasing avoidance scheme: - The current kernel fails mmaps of some /dev/mem MMIO regions because they don't appear in the EFI memory map. This keeps X from working on the Intel Tiger box. - The current kernel allows UC mmap of the 0-1MB region of /sys/.../legacy_mem even when the chipset doesn't support UC access. This causes an MCA when starting X on HP rx7620 and rx8620 boxes in the default configuration. There's more detail in the Documentation/ia64/aliasing.txt file this adds, but the general idea is that if a region might be covered by a granule-sized kernel identity mapping, any access via /dev/mem or mmap must use the same attribute as the identity mapping. Otherwise, we fall back to using an attribute that is supported according to the EFI memory map, or to using UC if the EFI memory map doesn't mention the region.

* [PATCH] EFI: keep physical table addresses in efi structureBjorn Helgaas2006-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Almost all users of the table addresses from the EFI system table want physical addresses. So rather than doing the pa->va->pa conversion, just keep physical addresses in struct efi. This fixes a DMI bug: the efi structure contained the physical SMBIOS address on x86 but the virtual address on ia64, so dmi_scan_machine() used ioremap() on a virtual address on ia64. This is essentially the same as an earlier patch by Matt Tolentino: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112130292316281&w=2 except that this changes all table addresses, not just ACPI addresses. Matt's original patch was backed out because it caused MCAs on HP sx1000 systems. That problem is resolved by the ioremap() attribute checking added for ia64.

* [PATCH] EFI, /dev/mem: simplify efi_mem_attribute_range()Bjorn Helgaas2006-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass the size, not a pointer to the size, to efi_mem_attribute_range(). This function validates memory regions for the /dev/mem read/write/mmap paths. The pointer allows arches to reduce the size of the range, but I think that's unnecessary complexity. Simplifying it will let me use efi_mem_attribute_range() to improve the ia64 ioremap() implementation.

* [PATCH] x86: fix EFI memory map parsingMatt Tolentino2005-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The memory descriptors that comprise the EFI memory map are not fixed in stone such that the size could change in the future. This uses the memory descriptor size obtained from EFI to iterate over the memory map entries during boot. This enables the removal of an x86 specific pad (and ifdef) in the EFI header. I also couldn't stomach the broken up nature of the function to put EFI runtime calls into virtual mode any longer so I fixed that up a bit as well. For reference, this patch only impacts x86.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
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!
