      x86/asm/entry: Move entry_64.S and entry_32.S to arch/x86/entry/ · 905a36a2
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Create a new directory hierarchy for the low level x86 entry code:
      
          arch/x86/entry/*
      
      This will host all the low level glue that is currently scattered
      all across arch/x86/.
      
      Start with entry_64.S and entry_32.S.

      kexec: create a new config option CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE for new syscall · 74ca317c
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Currently new system call kexec_file_load() and all the associated code
      compiles if CONFIG_KEXEC=y.  But new syscall also compiles purgatory
      code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large.  This option seems
      to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards.
      
      Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break
      existing users of old gcc.  Those who wish to enable new functionality
      will require new gcc.  Having said that, I am trying to figure out how
      can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while.
      
      I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config
      option.  As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches
      don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used.  This
      new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y.  And all other arches had
      to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC.  Now with introduction of new config
      option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches.
      
      Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64.  So whereever I had
      CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that.
      
      For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to
      "depends on CRYPTO=y".  This should be safer as "select" is not
      recursive.

      purgatory: core purgatory functionality · 8fc5b4d4
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Create a stand alone relocatable object purgatory which runs between two
      kernels.  This name, concept and some code has been taken from
      kexec-tools.  Idea is that this code runs after a crash and it runs in
      minimal environment.  So keep it separate from rest of the kernel and in
      long term we will have to practically do no maintenance of this code.
      
      This code also has the logic to do verify sha256 hashes of various
      segments which have been loaded into memory.  So first we verify that the
      kernel we are jumping to is fine and has not been corrupted and make
      progress only if checsums are verified.
      
      This code also takes care of copying some memory contents to backup region.

      net: filter: Just In Time compiler for x86-64 · 0a14842f
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      In order to speedup packet filtering, here is an implementation of a
      JIT compiler for x86_64
      
      It is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the admin.
      
      echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
      
      It uses module_alloc() and module_free() to get memory in the 2GB text
      kernel range since we call helpers functions from the generated code.
      
      EAX : BPF A accumulator
      EBX : BPF X accumulator
      RDI : pointer to skb   (first argument given to JIT function)
      RBP : frame pointer (even if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n)
      r9d : skb->len - skb->data_len (headlen)
      r8  : skb->data
      
      To get a trace of generated code, use :
      
      echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
      
      Example of generated code :
      
      # tcpdump -p -n -s 0 -i eth1 host 192.168.20.0/24

      x86: Add platform directory · 3adbb7f4
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      x86 has finally arrived in the embedded nightmare and will rapidly
      grow SoC platform support in various flavours. So we need a place for
      the platform support files. That also allows us to clean up the
      dumpground which arch/x86/kernel has become over time.
