Add VMI SMP boot hook. We emulate a regular boot sequence and use the same APIC IPI initiation, we just poke magic values to load into the CPU state when the startup IPI is received, rather than having to jump through a real mode trampoline. This is all that was needed to get SMP to work.

I found a clever way to make the extra IOPL switching invisible to non-paravirt compiles - since kernel_rpl is statically defined to be zero there, and only non-zero rpl kernel have a problem restoring IOPL, as popf does not restore IOPL flags unless run at CPL-0.

The VMI ROM has a mode where hypercalls can be queued and batched. This turns out to be a significant win during context switch, but must be done at a specific point before side effects to CPU state are visible to subsequent instructions. This is similar to the MMU batching hooks already provided. The same hooks could be used by the Xen backend to implement a context switch multicall. To explain a bit more about lazy modes in the paravirt patches, basically, the idea is that only one of lazy CPU or MMU mode can be active at any given time. Lazy MMU mode is similar to this lazy CPU mode, and allows for batching of multiple PTE updates (say, inside a remap loop), but to avoid keeping some kind of state machine about when to flush cpu or mmu updates, we just allow one or the other to be active. Although there is no real reason a more comprehensive scheme could not be implemented, there is also no demonstrated need for this extra complexity.

The VMI backend uses explicit page type notification to track shadow page tables. The allocation of page table roots is especially tricky. We need to clone the root for non-PAE mode while it is protected under the pgd lock to correctly copy the shadow. We don't need to allocate pgds in PAE mode, (PDPs in Intel terminology) as they only have 4 entries, and are cached entirely by the processor, which makes shadowing them rather simple. For base page table level allocation, pmd_populate provides the exact hook point we need. Also, we need to allocate pages when splitting a large page, and we must release pages before returning the page to any free pool. Despite being required with these slightly odd semantics for VMI, Xen also uses these hooks to determine the exact moment when page tables are created or released.

Convert the PDA code to use %fs rather than %gs as the segment for per-processor data. This is because some processors show a small but measurable performance gain for reloading a NULL segment selector (as %fs generally is in user-space) versus a non-NULL one (as %gs generally is). On modern processors the difference is very small, perhaps undetectable. Some old AMD "K6 3D+" processors are noticably slower when %fs is used rather than %gs; I have no idea why this might be, but I think they're sufficiently rare that it doesn't matter much. This patch also fixes the math emulator, which had not been adjusted to match the changed struct pt_regs.

As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA channel management. Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to provide memory below 16M. So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA. Undo the modifications to mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig. Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be switched off. It can only be switched off if we know that all devices supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and IA64/Altix). In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory (like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that call. In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

This reverts commit e4f0ae0e. It's not wrong, but it's not right either, and everybody seems to agree that the right fix is probably to do the ccr3 write after the ccr4 one (and that we also should clean it up a bit). And after that we need to really validate that all the bits that we write to ccr4 actually do work. The old 2.6.19 code was insane, and basically didn't change ccr4 at all (even though it certainly looks like it was the *intent* to do so). So let's revert the change that may fix things, just because it's not what was actually ever tested when the code was written, even if it _was_ the intent. There's a discussion on http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/9/63 that was started by the patch that now gets reverted, and that discussion may well contain the proper long-term fix.

i386 boot/compressed/relocs checks for absolute symbols and warns about unexpected ones. If you build with modversions, you get ~2500 warnings about __crc_<symbol>. These suckers are really absolute symbols - we do _not_ want to modify them on relocation. They are generated by genksyms - EXPORT_... generates a weak alias, then genksyms produces an ld script with __crc_<symbol> = <checksum> and it's fed to ld to produce the final object file. Their only use is to match kernel and module at modprobe time; they _must_ be absolute. boot/compressed/relocs has a whitelist of known absolute symbols, but it doesn't know about __crc_... stuff. As the result, we get shitloads of false positives on any ld(1) version. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
