1411e0ec31 x86-64, numa: Put pgtable to local node memory
Introduce init_memory_mapping_high(), and use it with 64bit.

It will go with every memory segment above 4g to create page table to the
memory range itself.

before this patch all page tables was on one node.

with this patch, one RED-PEN is killed

debug out for 8 sockets system after patch

Not only the naming of the files was confusing, it was even more so for
the function and variable names.

Renamed the K8 NB and NUMA stuff that is also used on other AMD
platforms. This also renames the CONFIG_K8_NUMA option to
CONFIG_AMD_NUMA and the related file k8topology_64.c to
amdtopology_64.c. No functional changes intended.

1af3c2e45e x86: allocate space within a region top-down
Request that allocate_resource() use available space from high addresses
first, rather than the default of using low addresses first.

The most common place this makes a difference is when we move or assign
new PCI device resources.  Low addresses are generally scarce, so it's
better to use high addresses when possible.  This follows Windows practice
for PCI allocation.

419afdf53c x86: update iomem_resource end based on CPU physical address capabilities
The iomem_resource map reflects the available physical address space.
We statically initialize the end to -1, i.e., 0xffffffff_ffffffff, but
of course we can only use as much as the CPU can address.

This patch updates the end based on the CPU capabilities, so we don't
mistakenly allocate space that isn't usable, as we're likely to do when
allocating from the top-down.

b40827fa72 x86-32, mm: Add an initial page table for core bootstrapping
This patch adds an initial page table with low mappings used exclusively
for booting APs/resuming after ACPI suspend/machine restart. After this,
there's no need to add low mappings to swapper_pg_dir and zap them later
or create own swsusp PGD page solely for ACPI sleep needs - we have
initial_page_table for that.

67e87f0a1c x86-64: Only set max_pfn_mapped to 512 MiB if we enter via head_64.S
head_64.S maps up to 512 MiB, but that is not necessarity true for
other entry paths, such as Xen.

Thus, co-locate the setting of max_pfn_mapped with the code to
actually set up the page tables in head_64.S.  The 32-bit code is
already so co-located.  (The Xen code already sets max_pfn_mapped
correctly for its own use case.)

-v2:

 Yinghai fixed the following bug in this patch:

 |
 | max_pfn_mapped is in .bss section, so we need to set that
 | after bss get cleared. Without that we crash on bootup.
 |
 | That is safe because Xen does not call x86_64_start_kernel().

9f4c13964b x86, memblock: Fix crashkernel allocation
Cai Qian found crashkernel is broken with the x86 memblock changes.

1. crashkernel=128M@32M always reported that range is used, even if
   the first kernel is small and does not usethat range

2. we always got following report when using "kexec -p"
	Could not find a free area of memory of a000 bytes...
	locate_hole failed

The root cause is that generic memblock_find_in_range() will try to
allocate from the top of the range, whereas the kexec code was written
assuming that allocation was always near the bottom and that it could
blindly extend memory upward.  Unfortunately the kexec code doesn't
have a system for requesting the range that it really needs, so this
is subject to probabilistic failures.

This patch hacks around the problem by limiting the target range
heuristically to below the traditional bzImage max range.  This number
is arbitrary and not always correct, and a much better result would be
obtained by having kexec communicate this number based on the kernel
header information and any appropriate command line options.

The file names are somehow misleading as the code is not specific to

Same is true for the config option which is valid for AMD CPU

memblock_memory_size() will return memory size in memblock.memory.region.
memblock_free_memory_size() will return free memory size in memblock.memory.region.

So We can get exact reseved size in specified range.

Set the size right after initmem_init(), because later bootmem API will
get area above 16M. (except some fallback).

Later after we remove the bootmem, We could call that just before paging_init().

9863c90f68 x86, vmware: Remove deprecated VMI kernel support
With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies
from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these
techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform.
These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the
performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware
expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of
years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this
feature from the hypervisor.

Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels
still work fine on VMware's platform.
Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are,
Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence
releases for these products will continue supporting VMI.

For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this,
http://blogs.vmware.com/guestosguide/2009/09/vmi-retirement.html

This feature removal was scheduled for 2.6.37 back in September 2009.

fd89a13792 x86-32: Separate 1:1 pagetables from swapper_pg_dir
This patch fixes machine crashes which occur when heavily exercising the
CPU hotplug codepaths on a 32-bit kernel. These crashes are caused by
AMD Erratum 383 and result in a fatal machine check exception. Here's
the scenario:

1. On 32-bit, the swapper_pg_dir page table is used as the initial page
table for booting a secondary CPU.

2. To make this work, swapper_pg_dir needs a direct mapping of physical
memory in it (the low mappings). By adding those low, large page (2M)
mappings (PAE kernel), we create the necessary conditions for Erratum
383 to occur.

3. Other CPUs which do not participate in the off- and onlining game may
use swapper_pg_dir while the low mappings are present (when leave_mm is
called). For all steps below, the CPU referred to is a CPU that is using
swapper_pg_dir, and not the CPU which is being onlined.

4. The presence of the low mappings in swapper_pg_dir can result
in TLB entries for addresses below __PAGE_OFFSET to be established
speculatively. These TLB entries are marked global and large.

5. When the CPU with such TLB entry switches to another page table, this
TLB entry remains because it is global.

6. The process then generates an access to an address covered by the
above TLB entry but there is a permission mismatch - the TLB entry
covers a large global page not accessible to userspace.

7. Due to this permission mismatch a new 4kb, user TLB entry gets
established. Further, Erratum 383 provides for a small window of time
where both TLB entries are present. This results in an uncorrectable
machine check exception signalling a TLB multimatch which panics the
machine.

There are two ways to fix this issue:

        1. Always do a global TLB flush when a new cr3 is loaded and the
        old page table was swapper_pg_dir. I consider this a hack hard
        to understand and with performance implications

        2. Do not use swapper_pg_dir to boot secondary CPUs like 64-bit
        does.

This patch implements solution 2. It introduces a trampoline_pg_dir
which has the same layout as swapper_pg_dir with low_mappings. This page
table is used as the initial page table of the booting CPU. Later in the
bringup process, it switches to swapper_pg_dir and does a global TLB
flush. This fixes the crashes in our test cases.

-v2: switch to swapper_pg_dir right after entering start_secondary() so
that we are able to access percpu data which might not be mapped in the
trampoline page table.

fd699c7655 x86, olpc: Add support for calling into OpenFirmware
Add support for saving OFW's cif, and later calling into it to run OFW
commands.  OFW remains resident in memory, living within virtual range
0xff800000 - 0xffc00000.  A single page directory entry points to the
pgdir that OFW actually uses, so rather than saving the entire page
table, we grab and install that one entry permanently in the kernel's
page table.

This is currently only used by the OLPC XO.  Note that this particular
calling convention breaks PAE and PAT, and so cannot be used on newer
x86 hardware.

This allows arch code could decide the way to reserve the ibft.

And we should reserve ibft as early as possible, instead of BOOTMEM
stage, in case the table is in RAM range and is not reserved by BIOS
(this will often be the case.)

Move to just after find_smp_config().

Also when CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, We will not have reserve_bootmem() anymore.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

c967da6a0b x86: Make sure free_init_pages() frees pages on page boundary
When CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, it could use memory more effiently, or
in a more compact fashion.

Example:

 Allocated new RAMDISK: 00ec2000 - 0248ce57
 Move RAMDISK from 000000002ea04000 - 000000002ffcee56 to 00ec2000 - 0248ce56

The new RAMDISK's end is not page aligned.
Last page could be shared with other users.

When free_init_pages are called for initrd or .init, the page
could be freed and we could corrupt other data.

code segment in free_init_pages():

 |        for (; addr < end; addr += PAGE_SIZE) {
 |                ClearPageReserved(virt_to_page(addr));
 |                init_page_count(virt_to_page(addr));
 |                memset((void *)(addr & ~(PAGE_SIZE-1)),
 |                        POISON_FREE_INITMEM, PAGE_SIZE);
 |                free_page(addr);
 |                totalram_pages++;
 |        }

last half page could be used as one whole free page.

So page align the boundaries.

-v2: make the original initramdisk to be aligned, according to
     Johannes, otherwise we have the chance to lose one page.
     we still need to keep initrd_end not aligned, otherwise it could
     confuse decompressor.
-v3: change to WARN_ON instead, suggested by Johannes.
-v4: use PAGE_ALIGN, suggested by Johannes.
     We may fix that macro name later to PAGE_ALIGN_UP, and PAGE_ALIGN_DOWN
     Add comments about assuming ramdisk start is aligned
     in relocate_initrd(), change to re get ramdisk_image instead of save it
     to make diff smaller. Add warning for wrong range, suggested by Johannes.
-v6: remove one WARN()
     We need to align beginning in free_init_pages()
     do not copy more than ramdisk_size, noticed by Johannes

7c099ce157 x86: Add quirk for Intel DG45FC board to avoid low memory corruption
Commit 6aa542a694 added a quirk for the
Intel DG45ID board due to low memory corruption. The Intel DG45FC
shares the same BIOS (and the same bug) as noted in:

893f38d144 x86: Use find_e820() instead of hard coded trampoline address
Jens found the following crash/regression:

[    0.000000] found SMP MP-table at [ffff8800000fdd80] fdd80
[    0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Overlapping early reservations 12-f011 MP-table mpc to 0-fff BIOS data page

and

[    0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Overlapping early reservations 12-f011 MP-table mpc to 6000-7fff TRAMPOLINE

and bisected it to b24c2a9 ("x86: Move find_smp_config()
earlier and avoid bootmem usage").

It turns out the BIOS is using the first 64k for mptable,
without reserving it.

So try to find good range for the real-mode trampoline instead of
hard coding it, in case some bios tries to use that range for sth.

copy_edd() should be __init.
warning msg:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x7759): Section mismatch in reference from the
function copy_edd() to the variable .init.data:boot_params
The function copy_edd() references
the variable __initdata boot_params.
This is often because copy_edd lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of boot_params is wrong.
