linux.git/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.h, branch v2.6.26 Linux kernel source tree x86: use ELF section to list CPU vendor specific code 2008-04-17T15:40:47+00:00 Thomas Petazzoni thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com 2008-02-15T11:00:23+00:00 03ae5768b6110ebaa97dc3e7abf1c3d8bec5f874 Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure. This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu() functions. This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly. This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU support code.

Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU
vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF
section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and
contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a
vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure.

This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu()
functions.

This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and
early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the
cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU
initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is
not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly.

This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for
further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU
support code.
