* [PATCH] paravirt: Patch inline replacements for paravirt interceptsRusty Russell2006-12-0714-188/+459
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that the most called ops, by several orders of magnitude, are the interrupt manipulation ops. These are obvious candidates for patching, so mark them up and create infrastructure for it. The method used is that the ops structure has a patch function, which is called for each place which needs to be patched: this returns a number of instructions (the rest are NOP-padded). Usually we can spare a register (%eax) for the binary patched code to use, but in a couple of critical places in entry.S we can't: we make the clobbers explicit at the call site, and manually clobber the allowed registers in debug mode as an extra check. And: Don't abuse CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, add CONFIG_DEBUG_PARAVIRT. And: AK: Fix warnings in x86-64 alternative.c build And: AK: Fix compilation with defconfig And: ^From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Some binutlises still like to emit references to __stop_parainstructions and __start_parainstructions.

* [PATCH] paravirt: header and stubs for paravirtualisationRusty Russell2006-12-0727-58/+890
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a paravirt.h header for all the critical operations which need to be replaced with hypervisor calls, and include that instead of defining native operations, when CONFIG_PARAVIRT. This patch does the dumbest possible replacement of paravirtualized instructions: calls through a "paravirt_ops" structure. Currently these are function implementations of native hardware: hypervisors will override the ops structure with their own variants. All the pv-ops functions are declared "fastcall" so that a specific register-based ABI is used, to make inlining assember easier. And: +From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> The paravirt ops introduce a 'weak' attribute onto memory_setup(). Code ordering leads to the following warnings on x86: arch/i386/kernel/setup.c:651: warning: weak declaration of `memory_setup' after first use results in unspecified behavior Move memory_setup() to avoid this.

* [PATCH] x86-64: Make x86_64 udelay() round up instead of down.Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2006-12-072-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Port two patches from i386 to x86_64 delay.c to make sure all rounding is done upward instead of downward.

* [PATCH] i386: Implement CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGNVivek Goyal2006-12-075-32/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Now CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START is being replaced with CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGN. Hardcoding the kernel physical start value creates a problem in relocatable kernel context due to boot loader limitations. For ex, if somebody compiles a relocatable kernel to be run from address 4MB, but this kernel will run from location 1MB as grub loads the kernel at physical address 1MB. Kernel thinks that I am a relocatable kernel and I should run from the address I have been loaded at. So somebody wanting to run kernel from 4MB alignment location (for improved performance regions) can't do that. o Hence, Eric proposed that probably CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGN will make more sense in relocatable kernel context. At run time kernel will move itself to a physical addr location which meets user specified alignment restrictions.

* [PATCH] i386: Distinguish absolute symbolsVivek Goyal2006-12-072-55/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ld knows about 2 kinds of symbols, absolute and section relative. Section relative symbols symbols change value when a section is moved and absolute symbols do not. Currently in the linker script we have several labels marking the beginning and ending of sections that are outside of sections, making them absolute symbols. Having a mixture of absolute and section relative symbols refereing to the same data is currently harmless but it is confusing. This must be done carefully as newer revs of ld do not place symbols that appear in sections without data and instead ld makes those symbols global :( My ultimate goal is to build a relocatable kernel. The safest and least intrusive technique is to generate relocation entries so the kernel can be relocated at load time. The only penalty would be an increase in the size of the kernel binary. The problem is that if absolute and relocatable symbols are not properly specified absolute symbols will be relocated or section relative symbols won't be, which is fatal. The practical motivation is that when generating kernels that will run from a reserved area for analyzing what caused a kernel panic, it is simpler if you don't need to hard code the physical memory location they will run at, especially for the distributions.

* [PATCH] x86: Don't use nested idle loopsAndi Kleen2006-12-072-42/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the idle loop has two nested loops -- one high level in cpu_idle and in some low level idle functions another one. Looping in the low level idle functions breaks the idle notifiers because interrupts waking up sleep states need to execute exit_idle() which is only in cpu_idle(). So don't do that, only loop in cpu_idle(). This only removes code. In some cases e.g. poll_idle the idle loop is a little longer now because cpu_idle checks more things. I hope that isn't a problem ACPI idle doesn't change behaviour because it never looped anyways. Cc: len.brown@intel.com Cc: eranian@hpl.hp.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
* [PATCH] i386: PDA: Fix math emulator for new pt_regsAndi Kleen2006-12-071-0/+1

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the pcurrent field in the PDA to implement the "current" macro. This ends up compiling down to a single instruction to get the current task.

* [PATCH] i386: Implement smp_processor_id() with the PDAJeremy Fitzhardinge2006-12-075-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the cpu_number in the PDA to implement raw_smp_processor_id. This is a little simpler than using thread_info, though the cpu field in thread_info cannot be removed since it is used for things other than getting the current CPU in common code.

* [PATCH] i386: Update sys_vm86 to cope with changed pt_regs and %gs usageJeremy Fitzhardinge2006-12-072-62/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_vm86 uses a struct kernel_vm86_regs, which is identical to pt_regs, but adds an extra space for all the segment registers. Previously this structure was completely independent, so changes in pt_regs had to be reflected in kernel_vm86_regs. This changes just embeds pt_regs in kernel_vm86_regs, and makes the appropriate changes to vm86.c to deal with the new naming. Also, since %gs is dealt with differently in the kernel, this change adjusts vm86.c to reflect this. While making these changes, I also cleaned up some frankly bizarre code which was added when auditing was added to sys_vm86.
