| | | | | | | | | | | | | | get more testing of the c_p_a() code done by not turning off PSE on DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. this simplifies the early pagetable setup code, and tests the largepage-splitup code quite heavily. In the end, all the largepages will be split up pretty quickly, so there's no difference to how DEBUG_PAGEALLOC worked before.

* x86: fix some bugs about EFI runtime code mappingHuang, Ying2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes some bugs of making EFI runtime code executable. - Use change_page_attr in i386 too. Because the runtime code may be mapped not through ioremap. - If there is no _PAGE_NX in __supported_pte_mask, the change_page_attr is not called. - Make efi_ioremap map pages as PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC_NOCACHE, because EFI runtime code may be mapped through efi_ioremap.

| | | | | | | | | | | | The SMP trampoline always runs in real mode, so making it executable in the page tables doesn't make much sense because it executes before page tables are set up.

* x86: don't drop NX bit in pte modifier functions on 32-bitAndi Kleen2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pte_* modifier functions that cleared bits dropped the NX bit on 32bit PAE because they only worked in int, but NX is in bit 63. Fix that by adding appropiate casts so that the arithmetic happens as long long on PAE kernels. I decided to just use 64bit arithmetic instead of open coding like pte_modify() because gcc should generate good enough code for that now.

* x86: GEODE: update GPIO API to support setting multiple GPIOs at onceAndres Salomon2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing Geode GPIO API only allows for updating one GPIO at once. There are instances where users want to update multiple GPIOs at once. With the current API, they are given two choices; either ignore the GPIO API: outl(0xc000, gpio_base + GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); outl(0xc000, gpio_base + GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); Alternatively, call each GPIO update separately: geode_gpio_set(14, GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); geode_gpio_set(15, GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); geode_gpio_set(14, GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); geode_gpio_set(15, GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); Neither are desirable. This patch changes the GPIO API to allow for setting of multiple GPIOs at once; rather than being passed an integer, we pass a bitmask and provide a translation function. The above code would now look like this: geode_gpio_set(geode_gpio(14)|geode_gpio(15), GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL); geode_gpio_set(geode_gpio(14)|geode_gpio(15), GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE); Since there are no upstream users of the GPIO API yet (afaik), best to change this now. This also adds a bit of sanity checking; it is no longer possible to use a GPIO above 28. Note the semantics of geode_gpio_isset() have changed: geode_gpio_isset(geode_gpio(3)|geode_gpio(4), ...) will only return true iff both GPIOs are set.

* x86_32: trim memory by updating e820Yinghai Lu2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when MTRRs are not covering the whole e820 table, we need to trim the RAM and need to update e820. reuse some code on 64-bit as well. here need to add early_get_cap and use it in early_cpu_detect, and move mtrr_bp_init early. The code successfully trimmed the memory map on Justin's system: from: [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: 0000000100000000 - 000000022c000000 (usable) to: [ 0.000000] modified: 0000000100000000 - 0000000228000000 (usable) [ 0.000000] modified: 0000000228000000 - 000000022c000000 (reserved) According to Justin it makes quite a difference: | When I boot the box without any trimming it acts like a 286 or 386, | takes about 10 minutes to boot (using raptor disks).

* x86, rtc: make CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC usable from modulesBernhard Walle2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | enabled, then interrupts don't work for the rtc-cmos driver which results in RTC_AIE*, RTC_PIE* and RTC_ALM being unusable. This affects hwclock from util-linux-ng at least on i386 since that uses RTC_PIE_ON. (For x86-64, a polling method is used for unknown reasons.) This patch series now 1. export the functions from arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c that the old char/rtc driver uses to work around that problem, 2. makes it possible to compile the old rtc driver as module, while still having CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC enabled and 3. makes use of the exported functions in (1) in the new rtc-cmos driver. This patch: This patch makes the RTC emulation functions in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c usable for kernel modules. It - exports the functions (EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()), - adds an interface to register the interrupt callback function instead of using only a fixed callback function and - replaces the rtc_get_rtc_time() function which depends on CONFIG_RTC with a call to get_rtc_time() which is defined in include/asm-generic/rtc.h. The only dependency to CONFIG_RTC is the call to rtc_interrupt() which is removed by the next patch. After this, there's no (code) dependency of this functions to CONFIG_RTC=y any more.

* x86, 32-bit: trim memory not covered by wb mtrrsJesse Barnes2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some machines, buggy BIOSes don't properly setup WB MTRRs to cover all available RAM, meaning the last few megs (or even gigs) of memory will be marked uncached. Since Linux tends to allocate from high memory addresses first, this causes the machine to be unusably slow as soon as the kernel starts really using memory (i.e. right around init time). This patch works around the problem by scanning the MTRRs at boot and figuring out whether the current end_pfn value (setup by early e820 code) goes beyond the highest WB MTRR range, and if so, trimming it to match. A fairly obnoxious KERN_WARNING is printed too, letting the user know that not all of their memory is available due to a likely BIOS bug. Something similar could be done on i386 if needed, but the boot ordering would be slightly different, since the MTRR code on i386 depends on the boot_cpu_data structure being setup. This patch fixes a bug in the last patch that caused the code to run on non-Intel machines (AMD machines apparently don't need it and it's untested on other non-Intel machines, so best keep it off).

* x86: print which shared library/executable faulted in segfault etc. messages v3Andi Kleen2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | They now look like: hal-resmgr[13791]: segfault at 3c rip 2b9c8caec182 rsp 7fff1e825d30 error 4 in libacl.so.1.1.0[2b9c8caea000+6000] This makes it easier to pinpoint bugs to specific libraries. And printing the offset into a mapping also always allows to find the correct fault point in a library even with randomized mappings. Previously there was no way to actually find the correct code address inside the randomized mapping. Relies on earlier patch to shorten the printk formats. They are often now longer than 80 characters, but I think that's worth it.

* x86: optimize lock prefix switching to run less frequentlyAndi Kleen2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On VMs implemented using JITs that cache translated code changing the lock prefixes is a quite costly operation that forces the JIT to throw away and retranslate a lot of code. Previously a SMP kernel would rewrite the locks once for each CPU which is quite unnecessary. This patch changes the code to never switch at boot in the normal case (SMP kernel booting with >1 CPU) or only once for SMP kernel on UP. This makes a significant difference in boot up performance on AMD SimNow! Also I expect it to be a little faster on native systems too because a smp switch does a lot of text_poke()s which each synchronize the pipeline. v1->v2: Rename max_cpus v1->v2: Fix off by one in UP check (Thomas Gleixner) Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
* x86: replace hard coded reservations in 64-bit early boot code with dynamic ↵Andi Kleen2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | table On x86-64 there are several memory allocations before bootmem. To avoid them stomping on each other they used to be all hard coded in bad_area(). Replace this with an array that is filled as needed. This cleans up the code considerably and allows to expand its use.
