| * printk: allocate kernel log buffer earlierMike Travis2011-05-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On larger systems, because of the numerous ACPI, Bootmem and EFI messages, the static log buffer overflows before the larger one specified by the log_buf_len param is allocated. Minimize the overflow by allocating the new log buffer as soon as possible. On kernels without memblock, a later call to setup_log_buf from kernel/init.c is the fallback.

* | x86, efi: Retain boot service code until after switching to virtual modeMatthew Garrett2011-05-251-0/+7
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UEFI stands for "Unified Extensible Firmware Interface", where "Firmware" is an ancient African word meaning "Why do something right when you can do it so wrong that children will weep and brave adults will cower before you", and "UEI" is Celtic for "We missed DOS so we burned it into your ROMs". The UEFI specification provides for runtime services (ie, another way for the operating system to be forced to depend on the firmware) and we rely on these for certain trivial tasks such as setting up the bootloader. But some hardware fails to work if we attempt to use these runtime services from physical mode, and so we have to switch into virtual mode. So far so dreadful. The specification makes it clear that the operating system is free to do whatever it wants with boot services code after ExitBootServices() has been called. SetVirtualAddressMap() can't be called until ExitBootServices() has been. So, obviously, a whole bunch of EFI implementations call into boot services code when we do that. Since we've been charmingly naive and trusted that the specification may be somehow relevant to the real world, we've already stuffed a picture of a penguin or something in that address space. And just to make things more entertaining, we've also marked it non-executable. This patch allocates the boot services regions during EFI init and makes sure that they're executable. Then, after SetVirtualAddressMap(), it discards them and everyone lives happily ever after. Except for the ones who have to work on EFI, who live sad lives haunted by the knowledge that someone's eventually going to write yet another firmware specification.

| * x86/PCI: Remove dma32_reserve_bootmemYinghai Lu2011-05-101-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This workaround holds a dma32 buffer at early boot to prevent later bootmem allocations from stealing it in the case of large RAM configs. Now that x86 is using memblock, and the nobootmem wrapper does top-down allocation, it's no longer necessary, so remove it.

* crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, ↵Olaf Hering2011-03-231-22/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0 backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in connected state. To run the connection reset function only in case of a crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV driver modules. Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel() usable for modules. Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param(). This changes powerpc from __setup() to early_param(). It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64 and powerpc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now cleanup_highmap actually is in two steps: one is early in head64.c and only clears above _end; a second one is in init_memory_mapping() and tries to clean from _brk_end to _end. It should check if those boundaries are PMD_SIZE aligned but currently does not. Also init_memory_mapping() is called several times for numa or memory hotplug, so we really should not handle initial kernel mappings there. This patch moves cleanup_highmap() down after _brk_end is settled so we can do everything in one step. Also we honor max_pfn_mapped in the implementation of cleanup_highmap.

This code installs the trampolines permanently in low memory very early. It also permits multiple pieces of code to be used for this purpose. This code also introduces a standard infrastructure for computing symbol addresses in the trampoline code. The only change to the actual SMP trampolines themselves is that the 64-bit trampoline has been made reusable -- the previous version would overwrite the code with a status variable; this moves the status variable to a separate location.

This breaks, when local apic is disabled in the Kconfig. Make it consistent by initializing device tree explicitely before smp_get_config() so a non lapic configuration could be used as well. To be functional that would require to implement PIT as an interrupt host, but the only user of this code until now is ce4100 which requires apics to be available.

Memory size, restricted memory regions, boot arguments are gathered the traditional way so things like cmd_line are just here to let the code compile. The current plan is use the device tree as an extension and to gather information which can not be enumerated and would have to be hardcoded otherwise. This includes things like - which devices are on this I2C/SPI bus? - how are the interrupts wired to IO APIC? - where could my hpet be?

The commit made an undocumented change where the kernel linear mapping strictly follows intersection of e820 memory map and NUMA configuration. If the physical memory configuration has holes or NUMA nodes are not properly aligned, this leads to using unnecessarily smaller mapping size which leads to increased TLB pressure. For details, http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1104672 Patches to fix the problem have been proposed but the underlying code needs more cleanup and the approach itself seems a bit heavy handed and it has been determined to revert the feature for now and come back to it in the next developement cycle. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1105959 As init_memory_mapping_high() callsites have been consolidated since the commit, reverting is done manually. Also, the RED-PEN comment in arch/x86/mm/init.c is not restored as the problem no longer exists with memblock based top-down early memory allocation.

This is safe now as numa_init_array() will initialize it early during boot. This makes NUMA mapping fully initialized before setup_per_cpu_areas() on 32bit too and thus makes the first percpu chunk which contains all the static variables and some of dynamic area allocated with NUMA affinity correctly considered.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

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(). | Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Fixed-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: H.

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.
