      sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmap · 69ac9cd6
      由 Bernhard Walle 提交于 
      This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS
(or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like:

    /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start   (hex number)
                           end     (hex number)
                           type    (string)
    ...                 /1/start
                           end
                           type

With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form
the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map).

  --------- 8< --------------------------
    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/firmware/memmap
    for dir in * ; do
        start=$(cat $dir/start)
        end=$(cat $dir/end)
        type=$(cat $dir/type)
        printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
    done
  --------- >8 --------------------------

That patch only provides the needed interface:

 1. The sysfs interface.
 2. The structure and enumeration definition.
 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early()
    that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for
    example) to add the contents to the interface.

If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does
nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's.

The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents
the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap'
and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory
map provided via the firmware. So kexec can:

 - use the original memory map for rebooting,
 - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump
   case that should only represent the memory of the system.

The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

      x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4 · 23ca4bba
      由 Mike Travis 提交于 
        * Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU".  This is
    used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed
    before there are per_cpu areas allocated.

    ["Early" in respect to per_cpu variables is "earlier than the per_cpu
    areas have been setup".]

    This patchset adds these new macros:

	DEFINE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name, _initvalue)
	EXPORT_EARLY_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(_name)
	DECLARE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name)

	early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)
	early_per_cpu_map(_name, _idx)
	early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu)

    The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early
    map and pointer.  It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map
    elements to "_initvalue".  The early_* macros provide access to
    the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early
    pointer.  This pointer is initialized to point to the early map
    but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup.  After
    that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable.

    The early_per_cpu() macro is not very efficient but does show how to
    access the variable if you have a function that can be called both
    "early" and "late".  It tests the early ptr to be NULL, and if not
    then it's still valid.  Otherwise, the per_cpu variable is used
    instead:

	#define early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) 			\
		(early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) ?			\
			early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)[_cpu] :	\
			per_cpu(_name, _cpu))

    A better method is to actually check the pointer manually.  In the
    case below, numa_set_node can be called both "early" and "late":

	void __cpuinit numa_set_node(int cpu, int node)
	{
	    int *cpu_to_node_map = early_per_cpu_ptr(x86_cpu_to_node_map);

	    if (cpu_to_node_map)
		    cpu_to_node_map[cpu] = node;
	    else
		    per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_node_map, cpu) = node;
	}

  * Add a flag "arch_provides_topology_pointers" that indicates pointers
    to topology cpumask_t maps are available.  Otherwise, use the function
    returning the cpumask_t value.  This is useful if cpumask_t set size
    is very large to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack.

  * The coverage of CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS has been increased while
    the non-debug case has been optimized a bit.

  * Remove an unreferenced compiler warning in drivers/base/topology.c

  * Clean up #ifdef in setup.c

For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.
