      x86, bts: remove bad warning · 9ca0791d
      Markus Metzger 提交于
      In case a ptraced task is reaped (while the tracer is still attached),
      ds_exit_thread() is called before ptrace_exit(). The latter will
      release the bts_tracer and remove the thread's ds_ctx.
      The former will WARN() if the context is not NULL.
      
      Oleg Nesterov submitted patches that move ptrace_exit() before
      exit_thread() and thus reverse the order of the above calls.
      
      Remove the bad warning. I will add it again when Oleg's changes are in.

      Dell XPS710 will hang on reboot.  This is resolved by adding a quirk to
      set bios reboot.

      x86, math-emu: fix init_fpu for task != current · ab9e1858
      Daniel Glöckner 提交于
      Impact: fix math-emu related crash while using GDB/ptrace
      
      init_fpu() calls finit to initialize a task's xstate, while finit always
      works on the current task. If we use PTRACE_GETFPREGS on another
      process and both processes did not already use floating point, we get
      a null pointer exception in finit.
      
      This patch creates a new function finit_task that takes a task_struct
      parameter. finit becomes a wrapper that simply calls finit_task with
      current. On the plus side this avoids many calls to get_current which
      would each resolve to an inline assembler mov instruction.
      
      An empty finit_task has been added to i387.h to avoid linker errors in
      case the compiler still emits the call in init_fpu when
      CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is not defined.
      
      The declaration of finit in i387.h has been removed as the remaining
      code using this function gets its prototype from fpu_proto.h.

      x86: EFI: Back efi_ioremap with init_memory_mapping instead of FIX_MAP · dd39ecf5
      Huang Ying 提交于
      Impact: Fix boot failure on EFI system with large runtime memory range
      
      Brian Maly reported that some EFI system with large runtime memory
      range can not boot. Because the FIX_MAP used to map runtime memory
      range is smaller than run time memory range.
      
      This patch fixes this issue by re-implement efi_ioremap() with
      init_memory_mapping().

      x86: fix DMI on EFI · ff0c0874
      Brian Maly 提交于
      Impact: reactivate DMI quirks on EFI hardware
      
      DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after
      efi_init() and not before.
      
      Currently Apple hardware uses DMI to determine the framebuffer mappings
      for efifb. Without DMI working you also have no video on MacBook Pro.
      
      This patch resolves the DMI issue for EFI hardware (DMI is now properly
      detected at boot), and additionally efifb now loads on Apple hardware
      (i.e. video works).
