Allocating PDA and GDT at boot is a pain. Using simple per-cpu variables adds happiness (although we need the GDT page-aligned for Xen, which we do in a followup patch).

Because the command line is increased to 2048 characters after 2.6.21, it's not possible for boot loaders and userspace tools to determine the length of the command line the kernel can understand. The benefit of knowing the length is that users can be warned if the command line size is too long which prevents surprise if things don't work after bootup. This patch updates the boot protocol to contain a field called "cmdline_size" that contain the length of the command line (excluding the terminating zero). The patch also adds missing fields (of protocol version 2.05) to the x86_64 setup code.

The specific case I am encountering is kdump under Xen with a 64 bit hypervisor and 32 bit kernel/userspace. The dump created is 64 bit due to the hypervisor but the dump kernel is 32 bit for maximum compatibility. It's possibly less likely to be useful in a purely native scenario but I see no reason to disallow it.

Whenever we schedule, __switch_to calls load_esp0 which does: tss->esp0 = thread->esp0; This is never initialized for the initial thread (ie "swapper"), so when we're scheduling that, we end up setting esp0 to 0. This is fine: the swapper never leaves ring 0, so this field is never used. lguest, however, gets upset that we're trying to used an unmapped page as our kernel stack. Rather than work around it there, let's initialize it.

Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to split the remaining system memory into nodes of fixed size. Any leftover memory is allocated to a final node unless the command-line ends with a comma. For example: numa=fake=2*512,*128 gives two 512M nodes and the remaining system memory is split into nodes of 128M each. This is beneficial for systems where the exact size of RAM is unknown or not necessarily relevant, but the size of the remaining nodes to be allocated is known based on their capacity for resource management.

Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to allow for configurable node sizes. These nodes can be used in conjunction with cpusets for coarse memory resource management. The old command-line option is still supported: numa=fake=32 gives 32 fake NUMA nodes, ignoring the NUMA setup of the actual machine. But now you may configure your system for the node sizes of your choice: numa=fake=2*512,1024,2*256 gives two 512M nodes, one 1024M node, two 256M nodes, and the rest of system memory to a sixth node. The existing hash function is maintained to support the various node sizes that are possible with this implementation. Each node of the same size receives roughly the same amount of available pages, regardless of any reserved memory with its address range. The total available pages on the system is calculated and divided by the number of equal nodes to allocate. These nodes are then dynamically allocated and their borders extended until such time as their number of available pages reaches the required size. Configurable node sizes are recommended when used in conjunction with cpusets for memory control because it eliminates the overhead associated with scanning the zonelists of many smaller full nodes on page_alloc().

This patch modifies the x86_64 kernel so that it can be loaded and run at any 2M aligned address, below 512G. The technique used is to compile the decompressor with -fPIC and modify it so the decompressor is fully relocatable. For the main kernel the page tables are modified so the kernel remains at the same virtual address. In addition a variable phys_base is kept that holds the physical address the kernel is loaded at. __pa_symbol is modified to add that when we take the address of a kernel symbol. When loaded with a normal bootloader the decompressor will decompress the kernel to 2M and it will run there. This both ensures the relocation code is always working, and makes it easier to use 2M pages for the kernel and the cpu. AK: changed to not make RELOCATABLE default in Kconfig Signed-off-by: NEric W.

Currently __pa_symbol is for use with symbols in the kernel address map and __pa is for use with pointers into the physical memory map. But the code is implemented so you can usually interchange the two. __pa which is much more common can be implemented much more cheaply if it is it doesn't have to worry about any other kernel address spaces. This is especially true with a relocatable kernel as __pa_symbol needs to peform an extra variable read to resolve the address. There is a third macro that is added for the vsyscall data __pa_vsymbol for finding the physical addesses of vsyscall pages. Most of this patch is simply sorting through the references to __pa or __pa_symbol and using the proper one. A little of it is continuing to use a physical address when we have it instead of recalculating it several times. swapper_pgd is now NULL. leave_mm now uses init_mm.pgd and init_mm.pgd is initialized at boot (instead of compile time) to the physmem virtual mapping of init_level4_pgd. The physical address changed. Except for the for EMPTY_ZERO page all of the remaining references to __pa_symbol appear to be during kernel initialization. So this should reduce the cost of __pa in the common case, even on a relocated kernel. As this is technically a semantic change we need to be on the lookout for anything I missed. But it works for me (tm). Signed-off-by: NEric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: NVivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

With the rewrite of the SMP trampoline and the early page allocator there is nothing that needs identity mapped pages, once we start executing C code. So add zap_identity_mappings into head64.c and remove zap_low_mappings() from much later in the code. The functions are subtly different thus the name change. This also kills boot_level4_pgt which was from an earlier attempt to move the identity mappings as early as possible, and is now no longer needed.

o Various cleanups. One of the main purpose of cleanups is that make wakeup.S as close as possible to trampoline.S. o Following are the changes - Indentations for comments. - Changed the gdt table to compact form and to resemble the one in trampoline.S - Take the jump to 32bit from real mode using ljmpl. Makes code more readable. - After enabling long mode, directly take a long jump for 64bit mode. No need to take an extra jump to "reach_comaptibility_mode" - Stack is not used after real mode. So don't load stack in 32 bit mode. - No need to enable PGE here. - No need to do extra EFER read, anyway we trash the read contents. - No need to enable system call (EFER_SCE). Anyway it will be enabled when original EFER is restored. - No need to set MP, ET, NE, WP, AM bits in cr0. Very soon we will reload the original cr0 while restroing the processor state.

o Get rid of dead code in wakeup.S o We never restore from saved_gdt, saved_idt, saved_ltd, saved_tss, saved_cr3, saved_cr4, saved_cr0, real_save_gdt, saved_efer, saved_efer2. Get rid of of associated code. o Get rid of bogus_magic, bogus_31_magic and bogus_magic2. No longer being used. Signed-off-by: NEric W.

This modifies the SMP trampoline and all of the associated code so it can jump to a 64bit kernel loaded at an arbitrary address. The dependencies on having an idenetity mapped page in the kernel page tables for SMP bootup have all been removed. In addition the trampoline has been modified to verify that long mode is supported. Asking if long mode is implemented is down right silly but we have traditionally had some of these checks, and they can't hurt anything. So when the totally ludicrous happens we just might handle it correctly. Signed-off-by: NEric W.
