      x86: provide a DMI based port 0x80 I/O delay override. · b02aae9c
      Rene Herman 提交于
      x86: provide a DMI based port 0x80 I/O delay override.
      
      Certain (HP) laptops experience trouble from our port 0x80 I/O delay
      writes. This patch provides for a DMI based switch to the "alternate
      diagnostic port" 0xed (as used by some BIOSes as well) for these.
      
      David P. Reed confirmed that port 0xed works for him and provides a
      proper delay. The symptoms of _not_ working are a hanging machine,
      with "hwclock" use being a direct trigger.
      
      Earlier versions of this attempted to simply use udelay(2), with the
      2 being a value tested to be a nicely conservative upper-bound with
      help from many on the linux-kernel mailinglist but that approach has
      two problems.
      
      First, pre-loops_per_jiffy calibration (which is post PIT init while
      some implementations of the PIT are actually one of the historically
      problematic devices that need the delay) udelay() isn't particularly
      well-defined. We could initialise loops_per_jiffy conservatively (and
      based on CPU family so as to not unduly delay old machines) which
      would sort of work, but...
      
      Second, delaying isn't the only effect that a write to port 0x80 has.
      It's also a PCI posting barrier which some devices may be explicitly
      or implicitly relying on. Alan Cox did a survey and found evidence
      that additionally some drivers may be racy on SMP without the bus
      locking outb.
      
      Switching to an inb() makes the timing too unpredictable and as such,
      this DMI based switch should be the safest approach for now. Any more
      invasive changes should get more rigid testing first. It's moreover
      only very few machines with the problem and a DMI based hack seems
      to fit that situation.
      
      This also introduces a command-line parameter "io_delay" to override
      the DMI based choice again:
      
      	io_delay=<standard|alternate>
      
      where "standard" means using the standard port 0x80 and "alternate"
      port 0xed.
      
      This retains the udelay method as a config (CONFIG_UDELAY_IO_DELAY) and
      command-line ("io_delay=udelay") choice for testing purposes as well.
      
      This does not change the io_delay() in the boot code which is using
      the same port 0x80 I/O delay but those do not appear to be a problem
      as David P. Reed reported the problem was already gone after using the
      udelay version. He moreover reported that booting with "acpi=off" also
      fixed things and seeing as how ACPI isn't touched until after this DMI
      based I/O port switch I believe it's safe to leave the ones in the boot
      code be.
      
      The DMI strings from David's HP Pavilion dv9000z are in there already
      and we need to get/verify the DMI info from other machines with the
      problem, notably the HP Pavilion dv6000z.
      
      This patch is partly based on earlier patches from Pavel Machek and
      David P. Reed.

      x86 setup: don't recalculate ss:esp unless really necessary · 16252da6
      Jens Rottmann 提交于
      In order to work around old LILO versions providing an invalid ss
      register, the current setup code always sets up a new stack,
      immediately following .bss and the heap. But this breaks LOADLIN.
      
      This rewrite of the workaround checks for an invalid stack (ss!=ds)
      first, and leaves ss:sp alone otherwise (apart from aligning esp).
      
      [hpa note: LOADLIN has a number of arbitrary hard-coded limits that
      are being pushed up against.  Without some major revision of LOADLIN
      itself it will not be sustainable keeping it alive.  This gives it
      another brief lease on life, however.  This patch also helps the
      cmdline truncation problem with old versions of SYSLINUX.]

      i386: paravirt boot sequence · a24e7851
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      This patch uses the updated boot protocol to do paravirtualized boot.
      If the boot version is >= 2.07, then it will do two things:
      
       1. Check the bootparams loadflags to see if we should reload the
          segment registers and clear interrupts.  This is appropriate
          for normal native boot and some paravirtualized environments, but
          inapproprate for others.
      
       2. Check the hardware architecture, and dispatch to the appropriate
          kernel entrypoint.  If the bootloader doesn't set this, then we
          simply do the normal boot sequence.
