      [PATCH] x86: fix PDA variables to work during boot · 9ee79a3d
      James Bottomley 提交于
      The current PDA code, which went in in post 2.6.19 has a flaw in that it
      doesn't correctly cycle the GDT and %GS segment through the boot PDA,
      the CPU PDA and finally the per-cpu PDA.
      
      The bug generally doesn't show up if the boot CPU id is zero, but
      everything falls apart for a non zero boot CPU id.  The basically kills
      voyager which is perfectly capable of doing non zero CPU id boots, so
      voyager currently won't boot without this.
      
      The fix is to be careful and actually do the GDT setups correctly.

      [PATCH] fix typo in geode_configre()@cyrix.c · e4f0ae0e

      We write back the wrong register when configuring the Geode processor.
      Instead of storing to CCR4, it stores to CCR3.

      [PATCH] Change cpu_up and co from __devinit to __cpuinit · b282b6f8
      Gautham R Shenoy 提交于
      Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n
      with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings
      
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
      .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b7d) and 'cpu_up'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
      .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b9c) and 'cpu_up'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__cpu_up
      from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141bd8) and 'cpu_up'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
      .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c05) and 'cpu_up'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
      .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c26) and 'cpu_up'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
      .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'
      
      This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
      defined as __devinit
      AND
      __cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.
      
      Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
      we get a .text refering .init.data warning.
      
      This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
      and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
      the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
      are of __init type.
      
      Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
      in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
      land up in .init section.
      
      Tested on a i386 SMP machine running linux-2.6.20-rc3-mm1.

      [PATCH] Fix sparsemem on Cell · a2f3aa02
      Dave Hansen 提交于
      Fix an oops experienced on the Cell architecture when init-time functions,
      early_*(), are called at runtime.  It alters the call paths to make sure
      that the callers explicitly say whether the call is being made on behalf of
      a hotplug even, or happening at boot-time.
      
      It has been compile tested on ppc64, ia64, s390, i386 and x86_64.
