a6c4e076ee [PATCH] i386: clean up identify_cpu
identify_cpu() is used to identify both the boot CPU and secondary
CPUs, but it performs some actions which only apply to the boot CPU.
Those functions are therefore really __init functions, but because
they're called by identify_cpu(), they must be marked __cpuinit.

This patch splits identify_cpu() into identify_boot_cpu() and
identify_secondary_cpu(), and calls the appropriate init functions
from each.  Also, identify_boot_cpu() and all the functions it
dominates are marked __init.

machine_ops is an interface for the machine_* functions defined in
<linux/reboot.h>.  This is intended to allow hypervisors to intercept

01a2f43556 [PATCH] i386: Add smp_ops interface
Add a smp_ops interface.  This abstracts the API defined by
<linux/smp.h> for use within arch/i386.  The primary intent is that it
be used by a paravirtualizing hypervisor to implement SMP, but it
could also be used by non-APIC-using sub-architectures.

This is related to CONFIG_PARAVIRT, but is implemented unconditionally
since it is simpler that way and not a highly performance-sensitive
interface.

4fbb596881 [PATCH] i386: cleanup GDT Access
Now we have an explicit per-cpu GDT variable, we don't need to keep the
descriptors around to use them to find the GDT: expose cpu_gdt directly.

We could go further and make load_gdt() pack the descriptor for us, or even
assume it means "load the current cpu's GDT" which is what it always does.

6fb14755a6 [PATCH] x86: tighten kernel image page access rights
On x86-64, kernel memory freed after init can be entirely unmapped instead
of just getting 'poisoned' by overwriting with a debug pattern.

On i386 and x86-64 (under CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA), kernel text and bug table
can also be write-protected.

Compared to the first version, this one prevents re-creating deleted
mappings in the kernel image range on x86-64, if those got removed
previously. This, together with the original changes, prevents temporarily
having inconsistent mappings when cacheability attributes are being
changed on such pages (e.g. from AGP code). While on i386 such duplicate
mappings don't exist, the same change is done there, too, both for
consistency and because checking pte_present() before using various other
pte_XXX functions is a requirement anyway. At once, i386 code gets
adjusted to use pte_huge() instead of open coding this.

90a0a06aa8 [PATCH] i386: rationalize paravirt wrappers
paravirt.c used to implement native versions of all low-level
functions.  Far cleaner is to have the native versions exposed in the
headers and as inline native_XXX, and if !CONFIG_PARAVIRT, then simply
#define XXX native_XXX.

There are several nice side effects:

1) write_dt_entry() now takes the correct "struct Xgt_desc_struct *"
   not "void *".

2) load_TLS is reintroduced to the for loop, not manually unrolled
   with a #error in case the bounds ever change.

3) Macros become inlines, with type checking.

4) Access to the native versions is trivial for KVM, lguest, Xen and
   others who might want it.

bf50467204 [PATCH] i386: Use per-cpu GDT immediately upon boot
Now we are no longer dynamically allocating the GDT, we don't need the
"cpu_gdt_table" at all: we can switch straight from "boot_gdt_table" to the
per-cpu GDT.  This means initializing the cpu_gdt array in C.

The boot CPU uses the per-cpu var directly, then in smp_prepare_cpus() it
switches to the per-cpu copy just allocated.  For secondary CPUs, the
early_gdt_descr is set to point directly to their per-cpu copy.

For UP the code is very simple: it keeps using the "per-cpu" GDT as per SMP,
but we never have to move.

8f9aeca7a0 [PATCH] x86: add command line length to boot protocol
Because the command line is increased to 2048 characters after 2.6.21, it's
not possible for boot loaders and userspace tools to determine the length
of the command line the kernel can understand.  The benefit of knowing the
length is that users can be warned if the command line size is too long
which prevents surprise if things don't work after bootup.

This patch updates the boot protocol to contain a field called
"cmdline_size" that contain the length of the command line (excluding the
terminating zero).

The patch also adds missing fields (of protocol version 2.05) to the x86_64
setup code.

0dbf7028c0 [PATCH] x86: __pa and __pa_symbol address space separation
Currently __pa_symbol is for use with symbols in the kernel address
map and __pa is for use with pointers into the physical memory map.
But the code is implemented so you can usually interchange the two.

__pa which is much more common can be implemented much more cheaply
if it is it doesn't have to worry about any other kernel address
spaces.  This is especially true with a relocatable kernel as
__pa_symbol needs to peform an extra variable read to resolve
the address.

There is a third macro that is added for the vsyscall data
__pa_vsymbol for finding the physical addesses of vsyscall pages.

Most of this patch is simply sorting through the references to
__pa or __pa_symbol and using the proper one.  A little of
it is continuing to use a physical address when we have it
instead of recalculating it several times.

swapper_pgd is now NULL.  leave_mm now uses init_mm.pgd
and init_mm.pgd is initialized at boot (instead of compile time)
to the physmem virtual mapping of init_level4_pgd.  The
physical address changed.

Except for the for EMPTY_ZERO page all of the remaining references
to __pa_symbol appear to be during kernel initialization.  So this
should reduce the cost of __pa in the common case, even on a relocated
kernel.

As this is technically a semantic change we need to be on the lookout
for anything I missed.  But it works for me (tm).

c8fdd24725 [PATCH] x86: Drop cc-options call for all options supported in gcc 3.2+
The kernel only supports gcc 3.2+ now so it doesn't make sense
anymore to explicitely check for options this compiler version
already has.

This actually fixes a bug. The -mprefered-stack-boundary check
never worked because gcc rightly complains

  CC      arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s
cc1: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is not between 4 and 12

We just never saw the error because of cc-options.
I changed it to 4 to actually work.

Tested by compiling i386 and x86-64 defconfig with gcc 3.2.

Should speed up the build time a tiny bit and improve
stack usage on i386 slightly.

bf8696ed6d [PATCH] i386: i386 make NMI use PERFCTR1 for architectural perfmon (take 2)
Hello,

This patch against 2.6.20-git14 makes the NMI watchdog use PERFSEL1/PERFCTR1
instead of PERFSEL0/PERFCTR0 on processors supporting Intel architectural
perfmon, such as Intel Core 2. Although all PMU events can work on
both counters, the Precise Event-Based Sampling (PEBS) requires that the
event be in PERFCTR0 to work correctly (see section 18.14.4.1 in the
IA32 SDM Vol 3b).

A similar patch for x86-64 is to follow.

Changelog:
        - make the i386 NMI watchdog use PERFSEL1/PERFCTR1 instead of PERFSEL0/PERFCTR0
          on processors supporting the Intel architectural perfmon (e.g. Core 2 Duo).
          This allows PEBS to work when the NMI watchdog is active.

d189518342 [PATCH] x86: Fix i386 and x86_64 fault information pollution
a userspace fault or a kernelspace fault which will result in the
immediate death of the process.  They should not be filled in as a
result of a kernelspace fault which can be fixed up.

Otherwise, if the process is handling SIGSEGV and examining the fault
information, this can result in the kernel space fault trashing the
previously stored fault information if it arrives between the
userspace fault happening and the SIGSEGV being delivered to the process.

Remove the assumption that if the first page of a legacy ROM is mapped,
it'll all be mapped. This'll also stop people reading this code from

0949be3509 [PATCH] i386: Add an option for the VIA C7 which sets appropriate L1 cache
The VIA C7 is a 686 (with TSC) that supports MMX, SSE and SSE2, it also has
a cache line length of 64 according to
http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/cpu/rmma-via-c7.html.  This patch sets
gcc to -march=686 and select s the correct cache shift.

f5e8861583 [PATCH] i386: pit_latch_buggy has no effect
Eliminated the arch/i386/kernel/timers in 2.6.18, use clocksoures instead.
pit_latch_buggy was referred in timers/timer_tsc.c, and currently removed.
Therefore nobody refer it.

Until 2.6.17, MediaGX's TSC works correctly.  after 2.6.18, warned "TSC
appears to be running slowly.  Marking it as unstable".  So marked unstable
TSC when CS55x0.

9964cf7d77 [PATCH] x86: consolidate smp_send_stop()
Synchronize i386's smp_send_stop() with x86-64's in only try-locking
the call lock to prevent deadlocks when called from panic().
In both version, disable interrupts before clearing the CPU off the
online map to eliminate races with IRQ handlers inspecting this map.
Also in both versions, save/restore interrupts rather than disabling/
enabling them.
On x86-64, eliminate one function used here by folding it into its
single caller, convert to static, and rename for consistency with i386
(lkcd may like this).

28609f6e49 [PATCH] i386: adjustments to page table dump during oops (v4)
- make the page table contents printing PAE capable
- make sure the address stored in current->thread.cr2 is unmodified
  from what was read from CR2
- don't call oops_may_print() multiple times, when one time suffices
- print pte even in highpte case, as long as the pte page isn't in
  actually in high memory (which is specifically the case for all page
  tables covering kernel space)

(Changes to v3: Use sizeof()*2 rather than the suggested sizeof()*4 for
printing width, use fixed 16-nibble width for PAE, and also apply the
max_low_pfn range check to the middle level lookup on PAE.)
