04aaa7ba09 x86: fix cmos read and write to not use inb_p and outb_p
fix code to access CMOS rtc registers so that it does not use inb_p and
outb_p routines, which are deprecated.  Extensive research on all known
CMOS RTC chipset timing shows that there is no need for a delay in
accessing the registers of these chips even on old machines. These chipa
are never on an expansion bus, but have always been "motherboard"
resources, either in the processor chipset or explicitly on the
motherboard, and they are not part of the ISA/LPC or PCI buses, so
delays should not be based on bus timing. The reason to fix it:

 1) port 80 writes often hang some laptops that use ENE EC chipsets,
    esp. those designed and manufactured by Quanta for HP;

 2) RTC accesses are timing sensitive, and extra microseconds may matter;

 3) the new "io_delay" function is calibrated by expansion bus timing needs,
    thus is not appropriate for access to CMOS rtc registers.

03ae5768b6 x86: use ELF section to list CPU vendor specific code
Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU
vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF
section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and
contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a
vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure.

This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu()
functions.

This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and
early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the
cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU
initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is
not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly.

This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for
further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU
support code.

28d2312881 x86: reducing debuginfo size by removing unneeded includes
I found it strange that the struct sk_buff definition was found
inside the DWARF debugging sections in the generated object, so I verified
and found that there is no need for the files that bring struct sk_buff
definition into this file and verified also that sk_buff is not brought
in indirectly too, thru other headers.

	I went on and removed many other unneeded includes and the end
result is:

[acme@doppio net-2.6]$ l /tmp/sys_ia32.o.before /tmp/sys_ia32.o.after
-rw-rw-r-- 1 acme acme 185240 2008-02-06 19:19 /tmp/sys_ia32.o.after
-rw-rw-r-- 1 acme acme 248328 2008-02-06 19:00 /tmp/sys_ia32.o.before

	Almost 64KB only on this object file!

	There were no other side effects from this change:

[acme@doppio net-2.6]$ objcopy -j "text" /tmp/sys_ia32.o.before /tmp/text.before
[acme@doppio net-2.6]$ objcopy -j "text" /tmp/sys_ia32.o.after /tmp/text.after
[acme@doppio net-2.6]$ md5sum /tmp/text.before /tmp/text.after
b7ac9b17942add68494e698e4f965d36  /tmp/text.before
b7ac9b17942add68494e698e4f965d36  /tmp/text.after

	One of the complaints about using tools such as systemtap is
that one has to install the huge kernel-debuginfo package:

[acme@doppio net-2.6]$ rpm -q --qf "%{size}\n" kernel-rt-debuginfo
471737710
543867594

ef9257668e x86: do kernel direct mapping at boot using GB pages
The AMD Fam10h CPUs support new Gigabyte page table entry for
mapping 1GB at a time. Use this for the kernel direct mapping.

Only done for 64bit because i386 does not support GB page tables.

This only applies to the data portion of the direct mapping; the
kernel text mapping stays with 2MB pages because the AMD Fam10h
microarchitecture does not support GB ITLBs and AMD recommends
against using GB mappings for code.

Can be disabled with disable_gbpages on the kernel command line

the straightforward extension of largepages from the pmd level to the

Turn it off by default, as this code has not been tested well enough yet.

Use the CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES=y .config option or gbpages on the
boot line can be used to enable it. If enabled in the .config then
nogbpages boot option disables it.

This patch adds code to the kernel to have an (optional)
/proc/kernel_page_tables debug file that basically dumps the kernel

useful in finding various change_page_attr() bugs, and is very likely to be
useful in the future as well.

2596e0fae0 x86: unify arch/x86/mm/Makefile
Unify arch/x86/mm/Makefile between 32 and 64 bits.

All configuration variables that are protected by Kconfig constraints
have been put in the common part of the Makefile; however, the NUMA
files are totally different between 32 and 64 bits and are handled via
an ifdef.

5de253cc5b x86 vDSO: don't map 32-bit vdso when disabled
We map a VMA for the 32-bit vDSO even when it's disabled, which is stupid.
For the 32-bit kernel it's the vdso_enabled boot parameter/sysctl
and for the 64-bit kernel it's the vdso32 boot parameter/syscall32 sysctl.

When it's disabled, we don't pass AT_SYSINFO_EHDR so processes don't use
the vDSO for anything, but we still map it.  For the non-compat vDSO,
this means we're always putting an extra VMA somewhere, maybe lousing
up the control of the address space the user was hoping for.

Honor the setting by doing nothing in arch_setup_additional_pages.

1a3e4ca41c x86 vDSO: don't use disabled vDSO for signal trampoline
If the vDSO was not mapped, don't use it as the "restorer" for a signal
handler.  Whether we have a pointer in mm->context.vdso depends on what
happened at exec time, so we shouldn't check any global flags now.

Background:

Currently, every 32-bit exec gets the vDSO mapped even if it's disabled
(the process just doesn't get told about it).  Because it's in fact
always there, the bug that this patch fixes cannot happen now.  With
the second patch, it won't be mapped at all when it's disabled, which is
one of the things that people might really want when they disable it (so
nothing they didn't ask for goes into their address space).

The 32-bit signal handler setup when SA_RESTORER is not used refers to
current->mm->context.vdso without regard to whether the vDSO has been
disabled when the process was exec'd.  This patch fixes this not to use
it when it's null, which becomes possible after the second patch. (This
never happens in normal use, because glibc's sigaction call uses
SA_RESTORER unless glibc detected the vDSO.)

85eb69a16a x86: increase the kernel text limit to 512 MB
people sometimes do crazy stuff like building really large static
arrays into their kernels or building allyesconfig kernels. Give
more space to the kernel and push modules up a bit: kernel has
512 MB and modules have 1.5 GB.

Should be enough for a few years ;-)

b4dcaea36b Pb1200/DBAu1200: fix bad IDE resource size
The header files for the Pb1200/DBAu1200 boards have wrong definition for the
IDE interface's decoded range length -- it should be 512 bytes according to
what the IDE driver does.  In addition, the IDE platform device claims 1 byte
too many for its memory resource -- fix the platform code and the IDE driver
in accordance.

b87e81e5c6 acpi: unneccessary to scan the PCI bus already scanned
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10124

      commit 08f1c192c3

         x86-64: introduce struct pci_sysdata to facilitate sharing of ->sysdata

         This patch introduces struct pci_sysdata to x86 and x86-64, and
         converts the existing two users (NUMA, Calgary) to use it.

         This lays the groundwork for having other users of sysdata, such as
         the PCI domains work.

         The Calgary bits are tested, the NUMA bits just look ok.

replaces pcibios_scan_root by pci_scan_bus_parented...

but in pcibios_scan_root we have a check about scanned busses.
