H. Peter Anvin 387faedb1d x86 setup: correct the base in the GDT_ENTRY() macro
The GDT_ENTRY() macro in pm.c would incorrectly cut the bottom 8 bits
off the base.  We didn't define any bases with the bottom 8 bits
nonzero, so it is a non-manifest bug, but it's still a bug.

H. Peter Anvin acd644bb4a x86 setup: guard the heap against invalid stack setups
If we use the bootloader-provided stack pointer, we might end up in a
situation where the bootloader (incorrectly) pointed the stack in the
middle of our heap.  Catch this by simply comparing the computed heap
end value to the stack pointer minus the defined stack size.

devzero@web.de e479c8306f x86 setup: be more verbose when probing EDD
On early boot, probing the Bios for EDD happens without any message.

Enhanced Disk Drive Services (EDD) is a mechanism to match x86 BIOS device
names (int13 device 80h) to Linux device names (e.g. /dev/sda, /dev/hda)

There are buggy Bios out there having problems with EDD. This can be problems
with the Bios itself or with addon cards, too.

This patch is adds an informational message on early boot.

CONFIG_EDD is not set with defconfig, but with allmodconfig (i.e. CONFIG_EDD=m)
so the EDD probe may be active on early boot on many systems nowadays.

I can tell, that the probe is active on SuSE distro and with that I have seen
more than one system hanging endlessly with those "black screen with a blinking
cursor in the the upper left" on installation, making it difficult for the end-
user to find out, what`s the issue.
For sure I have seen this on FujitsuSiemens PCs with i810 and with i815 chipset.

This one also honours the "quiet" bootparam.

Make the transition to protected mode more paranoid by having
back-to-back near jump (to synchronize the 386/486 prefetch queue) and

While we're at it, zero as many registers as practical (for future
expandability of the 32-bit entry interface) and enter 32-bit mode
with a valid stack.  Note that the 32-bit code cannot rely on this
stack, or we'll break all other existing users of the 32-bit
entrypoint, but it may make debugging hacks easier to write.

Mel Gorman bac4894dfa x86: make NUMA work on 32-bit again
On 32-bit NUMA, the memmap representing struct pages on each node is
allocated from node-local memory if possible. As only node-0 has memory from
ZONE_NORMAL, the memmap must be mapped into low memory. This is done by
reserving space in the Kernel Virtual Area (KVA) for the memmap belonging
to other nodes by taking pages from the end of ZONE_NORMAL and remapping
the other nodes memmap into those virtual addresses. The node boundaries
are then adjusted so that the region of pages is not used and it is marked
as reserved in the bootmem allocator.

This reserved portion of the KVA is PMD aligned althought
strictly speaking that requirement could be lifted (see thread at
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/24/220). The problem is that when aligned, there
may be a portion of ZONE_NORMAL at the end that is not used for memmap and
does not have an initialised memmap nor is it marked reserved in the bootmem
allocator. Later in the boot process, these pages are freed and a storm of
Bad page state messages result.

This patch marks these pages reserved that are wasted due to alignment
in the bootmem allocator so they are not accidently freed. It is worth
noting that memory from node-0 is wasted where it could have been put into
ZONE_HIGHMEM on NUMA machines. Worse, the KVA is always reserved from the
location of real memory even when there is plenty of spare virtual address
space.

This patch also makes sure that reserve_bootmem() is not called with a
0-length size in numa_kva_reserve().  When this happens, it usually means
that a kernel built for Summit is being booted on a normal machine. The
resulting BUG_ON() is misleading so it is caught here.

H. Peter Anvin cf8fa920cb i386: handle an initrd in highmem (version 2)
The boot protocol has until now required that the initrd be located in
lowmem, which makes the lowmem/highmem boundary visible to the boot
loader.  This was exported to the bootloader via a compile-time
field.  Unfortunately, the vmalloc= command-line option breaks this
part of the protocol; instead of adding yet another hack that affects
the bootloader, have the kernel relocate the initrd down below the
lowmem boundary inside the kernel itself.

Note that this does not rely on HIGHMEM being enabled in the kernel.

<Big Hole>
c0114000 t wakeup_code

This is because arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.S forces a .text alignment
of 4096 bytes. (I have no idea if it is really needed, since
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_64.S uses a 16 bytes alignment *only*)

So arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o also has this alignment

arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o:     file format elf32-i386

Sections:
Idx Name          Size      VMA       LMA       File off  Algn
  0 .text         00018c94  00000000  00000000  00001000  2**12
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, RELOC, READONLY, CODE

But as arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.o is not the first object linked
into arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o, linker had to build several holes to meet
alignement requirements, because of .o nestings in the kbuild process.

This can be solved by using a special section, .text.page_aligned, so that
no holes are needed.

This saves 9408 bytes

Commits

  (x86: allow TSC clock source on AMD Fam10h and some cleanup)

  (x86: move X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC into early cpu feature detection)

are supposed to fix the detection of contant TSC for AMD CPUs.
Unfortunately on x86_64 it does still not work with current x86/mm.
For a Phenom I still get:

  ...
  TSC calibrated against PM_TIMER
  Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized
  time.c: Detected 2288.366 MHz processor.
  ...

We have to set c->x86_power in early_identify_cpu to properly detect
the CONSTANT_TSC bit in early_init_amd.

Attached patch fixes this issue. Following the relevant boot
messages when the fix is used:

  ...
  TSC calibrated against PM_TIMER
  time.c: Detected 2288.279 MHz processor.
  ...
  Initializing CPU#1
  ...
  checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: passed.
  ...
  Initializing CPU#2
  ...
  checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#2]: passed.
  ...
  Booting processor 3/4 APIC 0x3
  ...
  checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#3]: passed.
  Brought up 4 CPUs
  ...

Patch is against x86/mm (v2.6.24-rc8-672-ga9f7faa).
Please apply.

Set c->x86_power in early_identify_cpu. This ensures that
X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC can properly be set in early_init_amd.

Andi Kleen 32c7553f82 x86: remove explicit C3 TSC check on 64bit
Trust the ACPI code to disable TSC instead when C3 is used.

AMD Fam10h does not disable TSC in any C states so the
check was incorrect there anyways after the change
to handle this like Intel on AMD too.

This allows to use the TSC when C3 is disabled in software
(acpi.max_c_state=2), but the BIOS supports it anyways.

Match i386 behaviour.

Andi Kleen 51fc97b935 x86: allow TSC clock source on AMD Fam10h and some cleanup
After a lot of discussions with AMD it turns out that TSC
on Fam10h CPUs is synchronized when the CONSTANT_TSC cpuid bit is set.
Or rather that if there are ever systems where that is not
true it would be their BIOS' task to disable the bit.

So finally use TSC gettimeofday on Fam10h by default.

Or rather it is always used now on CPUs where the AMD
specific CONSTANT_TSC bit is set.

This gives a nice speed bost for gettimeofday() on these systems
which tends to be by far the most common v/syscall.

On a Fam10h system here TSC gtod uses about 20% of the CPU time of
acpi_pm based gtod(). This was measured on 32bit, on 64bit
it is even better because TSC gtod() can use a vsyscall
and stay in ring 3, which acpi_pm doesn't.

The Intel check simply checks for CONSTANT_TSC too without hardcoding
Intel vendor. This is equivalent on 64bit because all 64bit capable Intel
CPUs will have CONSTANT_TSC set.

On Intel there is no CPU supplied CONSTANT_TSC bit currently,
but we synthesize one based on hardcoded knowledge which steppings
have p-state invariant TSC.

So the new logic is now: On CPUs which have the AMD specific
CONSTANT_TSC bit set or on Intel CPUs which are new enough
to be known to have p-state invariant TSC always use
TSC based gettimeofday()

Need this in the next patch in time_init and that happens early.

This includes a minor fix on i386 where early_intel_workarounds()
[which is now called early_init_intel] really executes early as
the comments say.
