Move the LOAD_OFFSET definition from vmlinux.lds.S into system.h. On paravirtualized environments, it is necessary to detect the execution environment. One of the solutions is the multi entry point. The multi entry point allows a boot loader to start the kernel execution from the entry point which is different from the ELF entry point. The non standard entry point will defined as the specialized elf note which contains the LMA of the entry point symbol. The constant, LOAD_OFFSET, is necessary to calculate the symbol's LMA. Move the definition into the public header file to make it available to the multi entry point support.

Problem: An application violating the architectural rules regarding operation dependencies and having specific Register Stack Engine (RSE) state at the time of the violation, may result in an illegal operation fault and invalid RSE state. Such faults may initiate a cascade of repeated illegal operation faults within OS interruption handlers. The specific behavior is OS dependent. Implication: An application causing an illegal operation fault with specific RSE state may result in a series of illegal operation faults and an eventual OS stack overflow condition. Workaround: OS interruption handlers that switch to kernel backing store implement a check for invalid RSE state to avoid the series of illegal operation faults. The core of the workaround is the RSE_WORKAROUND code sequence inserted into each invocation of the SAVE_MIN_WITH_COVER and SAVE_MIN_WITH_COVER_R19 macros. This sequence includes hard-coded constants that depend on the number of stacked physical registers being 96. The rest of this patch consists of code to disable this workaround should this not be the case (with the presumption that if a future Itanium processor increases the number of registers, it would also remove the need for this patch). Move the start of the RBS up to a mod32 boundary to avoid some corner cases. The dispatch_illegal_op_fault code outgrew the spot it was squatting in when built with this patch and CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y Move it out to the end of the ivt.

The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall personality(PER_LINUX32). On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c). To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in initialization time for IA-64 architecture.

Some IA64 machines map all cell-local memory above 4 GB (32 bit limit). However, in most cases, the kernel needs some memory below that limit that is DMA-capable. So in this machine configuration, the crashkernel will be reserved above 4 GB. For machines that use SWIOTLB implementation because they lack an I/O MMU the low memory is required by the SWIOTLB implementation. In that case, it doesn't make sense to reserve the crashkernel at all because it's unusable for kdump. A special case is the "hpzx1" machine vector. In theory, it has a I/O MMU, so it can be booted above 4 GB. However, in the kdump case that is not possible because of changeset 51b58e3e: On HP zx1 machines, the 'machvec=dig' parameter is needed for the kdump kernel to avoid problems with the HP sba iommu. The problem is that during the boot of the kdump kernel, the iommu is re-initialized, so in-flight DMA from improperly shutdown drivers causes an IOTLB miss which leads to an MCA. With kdump, the idea is to get into the kdump kernel with as little code as we can, so shutting down drivers properly is not an option. The workaround is to add 'machvec=dig' to the kdump kernel boot parameters. This makes the kdump kernel avoid using the sba iommu altogether, leaving the IOTLB intact. Any ongoing DMA falls harmlessly outside the kdump kernel. After the kdump kernel reboots, all devices will have been shutdown properly and DMA stopped. This patch pushes that functionality into the sba iommu initialization code, so that users won't have to find the obscure documentation telling them about 'machvec=dig'. This means that also for hpzx1 it's not possible to boot when all memory is above the 4 GB limit. So the only machine vectors that can handle this case are "sn2" and "uv".

Legacy HP ia64 platforms currently cannot provide /proc/cpuinfo/physical_id due to legacy SAL/PAL implementations. However, that physical topology information can be obtained via ACPI. Provide an interface that gives ACPI one last chance to provide physical_id for these legacy platforms. This logic only comes into play iff: - ACPI actually provides slot information for the CPU - we lack a valid socket_id Otherwise, we don't do anything.
