Put all config options needed to run Linux as a guest behind a CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST menu so that they don't get built-in by default but be selectable by the user. Also, make all units which depend on x86_hyper, depend on this new symbol so that compilation doesn't fail when CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST is disabled but those units assume its presence. Sort options in the new HYPERVISOR_GUEST menu, adapt config text and drop redundant select.

This patch updates x2apic initializaition code to allow x2apic on VMware platform even without interrupt remapping support. The hypervisor_x2apic_available hook was added in x2apic initialization code and used by KVM and XEN, before this. I have also cleaned up that code to export this hook through the hypervisor_x86 structure. Compile tested for KVM and XEN configs, this patch doesn't have any functional effect on those two platforms. On VMware platform, verified that x2apic is used in physical mode on products that support this.

While debugging I noticed that unlike all the other hypervisor code in the kernel, kvm does not have an entry for x86_hyper which is used in detect_hypervisor_platform() which results in a nice printk in the syslog. This is only really a stub function but it does make kvm more consistent with the other hypervisors.

This patch is similiar to Gleb Natapov's patch for KVM, which enable the hypervisor to emulate x2apic feature for the guest. By this way, the emulation of lapic would be simpler with x2apic interface(MSR), and faster.

Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops structure instead of an enumeration with if statements. The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing the pointer value in x86_hyper. The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable (it's per-system state, not per-CPU state). Being a normal bss variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without additional qualification. Signed-off-by: NH.

TSC calibration is modified by the vmware hypervisor and paravirt by separate means. Moorestown wants to add its own calibration routine as well. So make calibrate_tsc a proper x86_init_ops function and override it by paravirt or by the early setup of the vmware hypervisor. Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Impact: Changes timebase calibration on Vmware. v3->v2 : Abstract the hypervisor detection and feature (tsc_freq) request behind a hypervisor.c file v2->v1 : Add a x86_hyper_vendor field to the cpuinfo_x86 structure. This avoids multiple calls to the hypervisor detection function. This patch adds function to detect if we are running under VMware. The current way to check if we are on VMware is following, # check if "hypervisor present bit" is set, if so read the 0x40000000 cpuid leaf and check for "VMwareVMware" signature. # if the above fails, check the DMI vendors name for "VMware" string if we find one we query the VMware hypervisor port to check if we are under VMware. The DMI + "VMware hypervisor port check" is needed for older VMware products, which don't implement the hypervisor signature cpuid leaf. Also note that since we are checking for the DMI signature the hypervisor port should never be accessed on native hardware. This patch also adds a hypervisor_get_tsc_freq function, instead of calibrating the frequency which can be error prone in virtualized environment, we ask the hypervisor for it. We get the frequency from the hypervisor by accessing the hypervisor port if we are running on VMware. Other hypervisors too can add code to the generic routine to get frequency on their platform.

With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI. I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add. In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(), which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be there. This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu until node is onlined. This removes node arguments from register_cpu(). Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not necessary now. This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this. Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it. Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
