Impact: use new interface instead of previous ad hoc implementation Rather than having special purpose init_pg_table_start/end variables to delimit the kernel pagetable built by head_32.S, just use the brk mechanism to extend the bss for the new pagetable. This patch removes init_pg_table_start/end and pg0, defines __brk_base (which is page-aligned and immediately follows _end), initializes the brk region to start there, and uses it for the 32-bit pagetable.

Impact: new interface Add a brk()-like allocator which effectively extends the bss in order to allow very early code to do dynamic allocations. This is better than using statically allocated arrays for data in subsystems which may never get used. The space for brk allocations is in the bss ELF segment, so that the space is mapped properly by the code which maps the kernel, and so that bootloaders keep the space free rather than putting a ramdisk or something into it. The bss itself, delimited by __bss_stop, ends before the brk area (__brk_base to __brk_limit). The kernel text, data and bss is reserved up to __bss_stop. Any brk-allocated data is reserved separately just before the kernel pagetable is built, as that code allocates from unreserved spaces in the e820 map, potentially allocating from any unused brk memory. Ultimately any unused memory in the brk area is used in the general kernel memory pool. Initially the brk space is set to 1MB, which is probably much larger than any user needs (the largest current user is i386 head_32.S's code to build the pagetables to map the kernel, which can get fairly large with a big kernel image and no PSE support). So long as the system has sufficient memory for the bootloader to reserve the kernel+1MB brk, there are no bad effects resulting from an over-large brk.

Impact: cleanup Move the symbols delimiting a section part of the section (section relative) rather than absolute. This avoids any unexpected gaps between the section-start symbol and the first data in the section, which could be caused by implicit alignment of the section data. It also makes the general form of vmlinux_64.lds.S consistent with vmlinux_32.lds.S.

Impact: obsolete feature removal The zImage kernel format has been functionally unused for a very long time. It is just barely possible to build a modern kernel that still fits within the zImage size limit, but it is highly unlikely that anyone ever uses it. Furthermore, although it is still supported by most bootloaders, it has been at best poorly tested (or not tested at all); some bootloaders are even known to not support zImage at all and not having even noticed. Also remove some really obsolete constants that no longer have any meaning. LKML-Reference: <49B703D4.1000008@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

The i915 also uses the fence registers for GPU access to tiled buffers so we cannot reallocate one whilst it is on the active list.

radeonfb and aty128fb have a special hook called by the PowerMac platform code very very early on resume from sleep to bring the screen back. This is useful for debugging wakup problems, but unfortunately, this also became a source of problems of its own. The hook is called extremely early, with interrupts still off, and the code path involved with that code nowadays rely on things like taking mutexes, GFP_KERNEL allocations, etc... In addition, the driver now relies on the PCI core to restore the standard config space before calling resume which doesn't happen with this early code path. I'm keeping the code in but commented out along with a fixup call to pci_restore_state(). The reason is that I still want to make it easy to re-enable temporarily to track wake up problems, and it's possible that I can revive it at some stage if we make sleeping things save to call in early resume using a system state. In the meantime, this should fix several reported regressions. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The hvcs and hvsi backends both set tty->low_latency to one, along with more or less scary comments regarding bugs or races that would happen if not doing so. However, they also both call tty_flip_buffer_push() in conexts where it's illegal to do so since some recent tty changes (or at least it may have been illegal always but it nows blows) when low_latency is set (ie, hard interrupt or with spinlock held and irqs disabled). This removes the setting for now to get them back to working condition, we'll have to address the races described in the comments separately if they are still an issue (some of this might have been fixed already).

Prevent the kernel from being crashed by a divide-by-zero operation when supplied an incorrectly filled 'struct fb_var_screeninfo' from userland. Previously i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params) was using the global 'yres' symbol previously defined at i810_main.c:145 as a module parameter value holder (i810_main.c:2174). If i810fb is compiled-in or if this param doesn't get a default value, this direct usage leads to a divide-by-zero at i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params). The patch simply replace the 'yres' global, perhaps undefined symbol usage by a given parameter structure lookup. This problem occurs with directfb, mplayer -vo fbdev, SDL library.
