ia64: allocate percpu area for cpu0 like percpu areas for other cpus

2009-10-02T04:28:56+00:00

cpu0 used special percpu area reserved by the linker, __cpu0_per_cpu,
which is set up early in boot by head.S.  However, this doesn't
guarantee that the area will be on the same node as cpu0 and the
percpu area for cpu0 ends up very far away from percpu areas for other
cpus which cause problems for congruent percpu allocator.

This patch makes percpu area initialization allocate percpu area for
cpu0 like any other cpus and copy it from __cpu0_per_cpu which now
resides in the __init area.  This means that for cpu0, percpu area is
first setup at __cpu0_per_cpu early by head.S and then moved to an
area in the linear mapping during memory initialization and it's not
allowed to take a pointer to percpu variables between head.S and
memory initialization.

suggestion.

[IA64] Clean up linker script using standard macros.

2009-09-15T16:52:33+00:00

Aside from using fewer output sections and moving some data around,
the main side effect of this change is changing the alignment of some
sections. In particular:

* cachline-aligned and read_mostly data are now aligned to
  SMP_CACHE_BYTES. (Previously, they were laid out consecutively after
  a PAGE_SIZE alignment)
* .init.ramfs is now page-aligned, per the INIT_RAM_FS
  macro. (Previously it had no explicit alignment).

[IA64] Use .ref.text, not .text.init for start_ap.

2009-09-15T16:29:31+00:00

It seems that start_ap doesn't need to be in a special location in the
kernel, but it references some init code so it should be in .ref.text.

Since this is the only thing in the .text.head section, eliminate
.text.head from the linker script.
