74b3c444a9 x86, setup: Fix earlyprintk=serial,0x3f8,115200
earlyprintk can take and I/O port, so we need to handle this case in
the setup code too, otherwise 0x3f8 will be treated as a baud rate.

Torsten reported that there is garbage output,
after commit 8fee13a48e (x86,
setup: enable early console output from the decompressor)

It turns out we missed the offset for that case.

8fee13a48e x86, setup: enable early console output from the decompressor
This enables the decompressor output to be seen on the serial console.
Most of the code is shared with the regular boot code.

We could add printf to the decompressor if needed, but currently there
is no sufficiently compelling user.

-v2: define BOOT_BOOT_H to avoid include boot.h
-v3: early_serial_base need to be static in misc.c ?
-v4: create seperate string.c printf.c cmdline.c early_serial_console.c
     after hpa's patch that allow global variables in compressed/misc stage
-v5: remove printf.c related

f4ed2877b1 x86, setup: reorganize the early console setup
Separate early_serial_console from tty.c

This allows for reuse of
early_serial_console.c/string.c/printf.c/cmdline.c in boot/compressed/.

-v2: according to hpa, don't include string.c etc
-v3: compressed/misc.c must have early_serial_base as static, so move it back to tty.c
     for setup code

13da9e200f Revert "endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER"
This reverts commit b3b77c8cae, which was
also totally broken (see commit 0d2daf5cc8 that reverted the crc32
version of it).  As reported by Stephen Rothwell, it causes problems on
big-endian machines:

> In file included from fs/jfs/jfs_types.h:33,

> fs/jfs/endian24.h:36:101: warning: "__LITTLE_ENDIAN" is not defined

The kernel has never had that crazy "__BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN"
model.  It's not how we do things, and it isn't how we _should_ do
things.  So don't go there.

b3b77c8cae endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER
Linux does not define __BYTE_ORDER in its endian header files which makes
some header files bend backwards to get at the current endian.  Lets
#define __BYTE_ORDER in big_endian.h/litte_endian.h to make it easier for
header files that are used in user space too.

In userspace the convention is that

  1. _both_ __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN are defined,
  2. you have to test for e.g. __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.

8e92dc767a x86, setup: Don't skip mode setting for the standard VGA modes
The code for setting standard VGA modes probes for the current mode,
and skips the mode setting if the mode is 3 (color text 80x25) or 7
(mono text 80x25).  Unfortunately, there are BIOSes, including the
VMware BIOS, which report the previous mode if function 0F is queried
while the screen is in a VESA mode, and of course, nothing can help a
mode poked directly into the hardware.

As such, the safe option is to set the mode anyway, and only query to
see if we should be using mode 7 rather than mode 3.  People who don't
want any mode setting at all should probably use vga=0x0f04
(VIDEO_CURRENT_MODE).  It's possible that should be the kernel
default.

f1f6baf8f1 x86, setup: When restoring the screen, update boot_params.screen_info
When we restore the screen content after a mode change, we return the
cursor to its former position.  However, we need to also update
boot_params.screen_info accordingly, so that the decompression code
knows where on the screen the cursor is.  Just in case the video BIOS
does something extra screwy, read the cursor position back from the
BIOS instead of relying on it doing the right thing.

While we're at it, make sure we cap the cursor position to the new
screen coordinates.

17a2a9b57a x86, compress: Force i386 instructions for the decompressor
Recently, some distros have started shipping versions of gcc which
default to -march=i686.  This breaks building kernels for pre-i686
machines, even if they have been selected in Kconfig, due to the
generation of CMOV instructions.

There isn't enough benefit to try to preserve the generation of these
instructions even when selected, so simply force -march=i386 for the
decompressor when building a 32-bit kernel.

873b5271f8 x86: Regex support and known-movable symbols for relocs, fix _end
This adds a new category of symbols to the relocs program: symbols
which are known to be relative, even though the linker emits them as
absolute; this is the case for symbols that live in the linker script,
which currently applies to _end.

Unfortunately the previous workaround of putting _end in its own empty
section was defeated by newer binutils, which remove empty sections
completely.

This patch also changes the symbol matching to use regular expressions
instead of hardcoded C for specific patterns.

This is a decidedly non-minimal patch: a modified version of the
relocs program is used as part of the Syslinux build, and this 	is
basically a backport to Linux of some of those changes; they have
thus been well tested.

350f8f5631 x86: Eliminate redundant/contradicting cache line size config options
Rather than having X86_L1_CACHE_BYTES and X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT
(with inconsistent defaults), just having the latter suffices as
the former can be easily calculated from it.

To be consistent, also change X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_BYTES to
X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT, and set it to 7 (128 bytes) for NUMA
to account for last level cache line size (which here matters
more than L1 cache line size).

Finally, make sure the default value for X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT,
when X86_GENERIC is selected, is being seen before that for the
individual CPU model options (other than on x86-64, where
GENERIC_CPU is part of the choice construct, X86_GENERIC is a
separate option on ix86).

caa27b66bd kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script
Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62fa
  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

1dc818c1c5 x86: convert compressed loader to use __HEAD and HEAD_TEXT macros.
This has the consequence of changing the section name use for head
code from ".text.head" to ".head.text".

Linus suggested that we merge the ".text.head" section with ".text"
(presumably while preserving the fact that the head code starts at 0).
When I tried this it caused the kernel to not boot.

There were a set of pre-Kconfig configuration variables defined in the
video code.  There is absolutely no evidence that they have been
tweaked by anybody in modern history, so just get rid of them and hope
nobody notices.  If someone does complain, these should be made real

46176b4f6b x86, relocs: ignore R_386_NONE in kernel relocation entries
For relocatable 32bit kernels, boot/compressed/relocs.c processes
relocation entries in the kernel image and appends it to the kernel
image such that boot/compressed/head_32.S can relocate the kernel.
The kernel image is one statically linked object and only uses two
relocation types - R_386_PC32 and R_386_32, of the two only the latter
needs massaging during kernel relocation and thus handled by relocs.
R_386_PC32 is ignored and all other relocation types are considered
error.

When the target of a relocation resides in a discarded section,
binutils doesn't throw away the relocation record but nullifies it by
changing it to R_386_NONE, which unfortunately makes relocs fail.

The problem was triggered by yet out-of-tree x86 stack unwind patches
but given the binutils behavior, ignoring R_386_NONE is the right
thing to do.

The problem has been tracked down to binutils behavior by Jan Beulich.

[ Impact: fix build with certain binutils by ignoring R_386_NONE ]

bca23dba76 x86, setup: revert ACPI 3 E820 extended attributes support
Remove ACPI 3 E820 extended memory attributes support.  At least one
vendor actively set all the flags to zero, but left ECX on return at
24.  This bug may be present in other BIOSes.

The breakage functionally means the ACPI 3 flags are probably
completely useless, and that no OS any time soon is going to rely on
their existence.  Therefore, drop support completely.  We may want to
revisit this question in the future, if we find ourselves actually
needing the flags.

This reverts all or part of the following checkins:

     cd670599b7
     c549e71d07

However, retain the part from the latter commit that copies e820 into
a temporary buffer; that is an unrelated BIOS workaround.  Put in a
comment to explain that part.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=499396 for some
additional information.
