When probing the keyboard controller to enable A20, if we get FF back (which is *possible* as a valid status word, but is extremely unlikely) then bail after much fewer iterations than we otherwise would, and abort the attempt to access the KBC. This hopefully should make it work a lot better for embedded platforms which don't have a KBC and where the BIOS doesn't implement INT 15h AX=2401h (and doesn't boot with A20 already enabled.) If this works, it will be the one remaining use of CONFIG_X86_ELAN as anything other than a processor type optimization option. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>

Currently, it is possible to set a graphics VESA mode at boot time via the vga= parameter even when no framebuffer driver supporting this is configured.

In particular, it doesn't contain the code for CPU feature words 2 (Transmeta), 3 (Linux-specific), 5 (VIA), or 7 (scattered). Zero them out, so we can still set those bits as known at compile time; in particular, this allows creating a Linux-specific NOPL flag and have it required (and therefore resolvable at compile time) in 64-bit mode.

We have had a number of cases where <asm/cpufeature.h> (and its predecessors) have diverged substantially from the names list in /proc/cpuinfo. This patch generates the latter from the former. It retains the option for explicitly overriding the strings, but by making that require a separate action it should at least be less likely to happen. It would be good to do a future pass and rename strings that are gratuituously different in the kernel (/proc/cpuinfo is a userspace interface and must remain constant.) Signed-off-by: NH.

yesterday I tried to reactivate my old 486 box and wanted to install a current Linux with latest kernel on it. But it turned out that the latest kernel does not boot because the machine crashes early in the setup code. After some debugging it turned out that the problem is the query_ist() function. If this interrupt with that function is called the machine simply locks up. It looks like a BIOS bug. Looking for a workaround for this problem I wrote the attached patch. It checks for the CPUID instruction and if it is not implemented it does not call the speedstep BIOS function. As far as I know speedstep should be available since some Pentium earliest. Alan Cox observed that it's available since the Pentium II, so cpuid levels 4 and 5 can be excluded altogether. H. Peter Anvin cleaned up the code some more: > Right in concept, but I dislike the implementation (duplication of the > CPU detect code we already have). Could you try this patch and see if > it works for you? which, with a small modification to fix a build error with it the resulting kernel boots on my machine.

Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot process and this is provided with a set of four functions: malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release. The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement free. This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena. This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying all the malloc/free implementations. The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses: - free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which allocations should be made - free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog() function call. This function will be called several times during the decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is still running. If an architecture provides such a call, then it must define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls arch_decomp_wdog(). Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the kernel and improved by me.

Apparently, DOS and possibly other legacy operating systems issued a null command to the keyboard controller after toggling A20, specifically "pulse output pins" with no output pins specified. This was presumably done for synchronization reasons. This has made it into at least the UHCI spec, and it has been found to cause compatibility problems when "legacy USB" is enabled (which it almost always is) to not have this byte sent. It is *NOT* clear if any of these compatibility problems has any effect on Linux. However, for maximum compatibility, issue this null command after togging A20 through the KBC. Signed-off-by: NH.
