x86/mm/pat: Don't report PAT on CPUs that don't support it

2017-07-05T07:01:24+00:00

The pat_enabled() logic is broken on CPUs which do not support PAT and
where the initialization code fails to call pat_init(). Due to that the
enabled flag stays true and pat_enabled() returns true wrongfully.

As a consequence the mappings, e.g. for Xorg, are set up with the wrong
caching mode and the required MTRR setups are omitted.

To cure this the following changes are required:

  1) Make pat_enabled() return true only if PAT initialization was
     invoked and successful.

  2) Invoke init_cache_modes() unconditionally in setup_arch() and
     remove the extra callsites in pat_disable() and the pat disabled
     code path in pat_init().

Also rename __pat_enabled to pat_disabled to reflect the real purpose of
this variable.

x86/debug: Extend the lower bound of crash kernel low reservations

2017-06-22T09:10:23+00:00

The following change in 2013:

  0212f9159694 ("x86: Add Crash kernel low reservation")

... introduced reserve_crashkernel_low(). This function is used to
reserve crash kernel memory either if crashkernel=size,low is given
on the command line or if the region reserved by reserve_crashkernel
is entirely above 4G.

reserve_crashkernel_low() tries to find a block of 'low_size' bytes.
But there seems to be no good reason to restrict the lower bound
of the range to 'low_size'.

Make memblock_find_in_range() search from the start of memory.

x86/timers: Move simple_udelay_calibration past init_hypervisor_platform

2017-05-26T11:04:09+00:00

This ensures that adjustments to x86_platform done by the hypervisor
setup is already respected by this simple calibration.

The current user of this, introduced by 1b5aeebf3a92 ("x86/earlyprintk:
Add support for earlyprintk via USB3 debug port"), comes much later
into play.

x86/boot/32: Fix UP boot on Quark and possibly other platforms

2017-05-09T06:14:24+00:00

This partially reverts commit:

  23b2a4ddebdd17f ("x86/boot/32: Defer resyncing initial_page_table until per-cpu is set up")

That commit had one definite bug and one potential bug.  The
definite bug is that setup_per_cpu_areas() uses a differnet generic
implementation on UP kernels, so initial_page_table never got
resynced.  This was fine for access to percpu data (it's in the
identity map on UP), but it breaks other users of
initial_page_table.  The potential bug is that helpers like
efi_init() would be called before the tables were synced.

Avoid both problems by just syncing the page tables in setup_arch()
*and* setup_per_cpu_areas().

Merge branch 'x86/boot' into x86/mm, to avoid conflict

2017-04-11T06:56:05+00:00

There's a conflict between ongoing level-5 paging support and
the E820 rewrite. Since the E820 rewrite is essentially ready,
merge it into x86/mm to reduce tree conflicts.
