3fde690011 x86: change __setup_vector_irq with setup_vector_irq
We create a version of it for i386, and then take the CONFIG_X86_64
ifdef out of the game. We could create a __setup_vector_irq for i386,
but it would incur in an unnecessary lock taking. Moreover, it is better
practice to only export setup_vector_irq anyway.

a939098afc x86: move x86_64 gdt closer to i386
i386 and x86_64 used two different schemes for maintaining the gdt.
With this patch, x86_64 initial gdt table is defined in a .c file,
same way as i386 is now. Also, we call it "gdt_page", and the descriptor,
"early_gdt_descr". This way we achieve common naming, which can allow for
more code integration.

a7bf0bd5e6 build: add __page_aligned_data and __page_aligned_bss
Making a variable page-aligned by using
__attribute__((section(".data.page_aligned"))) is fragile because if
sizeof(variable) is not also a multiple of page size, it leaves
variables in the remainder of the section unaligned.

This patch introduces two new qualifiers, __page_aligned_data and
__page_aligned_bss to set the section *and* the alignment of
variables.  This makes page-aligned variables more robust because the
linker will make sure they're aligned properly.  Unfortunately it
requires *all* page-aligned data to use these macros...

1ecd27657b x86: unify crashkernel reservation for 32 and 64 bit
This patch moves the reserve_crashkernel() to setup.c and removes the
architecture-specific version. Both versions were more or less the same.

I tested it on both x86-64 and i386, with CONFIG_KEXEC on and off (so
that it compiles).

b6df1b8bc1 x86: fix stack overflow for large values of MAX_APICS
physid_mask_of_physid() causes a huge stack (12k) to be created if the
number of APICS is large. Replace physid_mask_of_physid() with a
new function that does not create large stacks. This is a problem only
on large x86_64 systems.

this paves the way to increase MAX_APICS.

1812924bb1 x86, SGI UV: TLB shootdown using broadcast assist unit
TLB shootdown for SGI UV.

Depends on patch (in tip/x86/irq):
   x86-update-macros-used-by-uv-platform.patch   Jack Steiner May 29

This patch provides the ability to flush TLB's in cpu's that are not on
the local node.  The hardware mechanism for distributing the flush
messages is the UV's "broadcast assist unit".

The hook to intercept TLB shootdown requests is a 2-line change to
native_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_64.c).

This code has been tested on a hardware simulator. The real hardware
is not yet available.

The shootdown statistics are provided through /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics.
The use of /sys was considered, but would have required the use of
many /sys files.  The debugfs was also considered, but these statistics
should be available on an ongoing basis, not just for debugging.

Issues to be fixed later:
- The IRQ for the messaging interrupt is currently hardcoded as 200
  (see UV_BAU_MESSAGE).  It should be dynamically assigned in the future.
- The use of appropriate udelay()'s is untested, as they are a problem
  in the simulator.

3fd052b1b4 x86: add flags parameter to reserve_bootmem_generic()
This patch adds a 'flags' parameter to reserve_bootmem_generic() like it
already has been added in reserve_bootmem() with commit
72a7fe3967.

It also changes all users to use BOOTMEM_DEFAULT, which doesn't effectively
change the behaviour. Since the change is x86-specific, I don't think it's
necessary to add a new API for migration. There are only 4 users of that
function.

The change is necessary for the next patch, using reserve_bootmem_generic()
for crashkernel reservation.

3461b0af02 x86: remove static boot_cpu_pda array v2
* Remove the boot_cpu_pda array and pointer table from the data section.
    Allocate the pointer table and array during init.  do_boot_cpu()
    will reallocate the pda in node local memory and if the cpu is being
    brought up before the bootmem array is released (after_bootmem = 0),
    then it will free the initial pda.  This will happen for all cpus
    present at system startup.

    This removes 512k + 32k bytes from the data section.

7891a24e1e x86: restore pda nodenumber field
* Restore the nodenumber field in the x86_64 pda.  This field is slightly
    different than the x86_cpu_to_node_map mainly because it's a static
    indication of which node the cpu is on while the cpu to node map is a
    dyanamic mapping that may get reset if the cpu goes offline.  This also
    simplifies the numa_node_id() macro.

23ca4bba3e x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4
* 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

8c5beb50d3 x86 boot: pass E820 memory map entries more than 128 via linked list of setup data
Because of the size limits of struct boot_params (zero page), the
maximum number of E820 memory map entries can be passed to kernel is
128. As pointed by Paul Jackson, there is some machine produced by SGI
with so many nodes that the number of E820 memory map entries is more
than 128. To enabling Linux kernel on these system, a new setup data
type named SETUP_E820_EXT is defined to pass additional memory map
entries to Linux kernel.

Define names for them to eliminate reference by hard coded
numbers.

d788bada2f x86: APIC/SMP: Downgrade the NMI watchdog for "noapic"
If configured to use the I/O APIC, the NMI watchdog is deemed to fail if
the chip has been deactivated as a result of "noapic".  Downgrade to the
local APIC watchdog similarly to what is done for the UP case.

148b508309 x86: NMI watchdog: Downgrade helper
A downgrade helper for the NMI watchdog to be used in all places where
the I/O APIC watchdog may have been requested, but the I/O APIC is found
not to be there or meant to be left disabled.  This is so that the
reconfiguration is cosistent and defined in a single place only.

35542c5ebc x86: I/O APIC: clean up the 8259A on a NMI watchdog failure
There is no point in keeping the 8259A enabled if the I/O APIC NMI
watchdog has failed and the 8259A is not used to pass through regular
timer interrupts.  This fixes problems with some systems where some logic
gets confused.

ecd29476ae x86: I/O APIC: remove parameters to fiddle with the 8259A
Remove the "disable_8254_timer" and "enable_8254_timer" kernel
parameters.  Now that AEOI acknowledgements are no longer needed for
correct timer operation, the 8259A can be kept disabled unconditionally
unless interrupts, either timer or watchdog ones, are actually passed
through it.

65280e613f x86: janitor CPA statistics patch
1) Remove __meminit from update_pages_count. It is used inside
split_pages()

2) Make the code depend on PROC_FS. Doing statistics for nothing is
useless and not adding useless code is nice to the Linux tiny folks.

ce0c0e50f9 x86, generic: CPA add statistics about state of direct mapping v4
Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to
/proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other
memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even
outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the
kernel will run slower.

This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how
many are split.

Useful for general insight into the kernel.

v2: Add hotplug locking to 64bit to plug a very obscure theoretical race.
    32bit doesn't need it because it doesn't support hotadd for lowmem.
    Fix some typos
v3: Rename dpages_cnt
    Add CONFIG ifdef for count update as requested by tglx
    Expand description
v4: Fix stupid bugs added in v3
    Move update_page_count to pageattr.c
