Yinghai Lu eda6da9286 Revert 'x86: Fix system crash when loading with "reservetop" parameter'
After close looking, commit 8126dec3 will break:

 1. some cpu feature  in early stage too, like cpu_has_x2apic
 2. will break built-in-command line
 3. will break other memmap= and mem=
 4. early_dbgp and early_console that will use early_ioremap to access mmio (?)

So revert it.

Jan Beulich 47d25003cb x86: Fix earlyprintk=dbgp for machines without NX
Since parse_early_param() may (e.g. for earlyprintk=dbgp)
involve calls to page table manipulation functions (here
set_fixmap_nocache()), NX hardware support must be determined
before calling that function (so that __supported_pte_mask gets
properly set up).

But the call after parse_early_param() can also not go away, as
that will honor eventual command line specified disabling of
the NX functionality.

( This will then just result in whatever mappings got
  established during parse_early_param() having the NX bit set
  despite it being disabled on the command line, but I think
  that's tolerable).

Thomas Gleixner 8fee697d99 x86: Add request_standard_resources to x86_init
The 32bit and the 64bit code are slighty different in the reservation

own version of that.

Add it to x86_init_ops and initialize it with the 64bit default. 32bit
overrides it in early boot. Now moorestown can add it's own override
w/o sprinkling the code with more #ifdefs

Xiao Guangrong 8126dec327 x86: Fix system crash when loading with "reservetop" parameter
The system will die if the kernel is booted with "reservetop"
parameter, in present code, parse "reservetop" parameter after
early_ioremap_init(), and some function still use
early_ioremap() after it.

The problem is, "reservetop" parameter can modify
'FIXADDR_TOP', then the virtual address got by early_ioremap()
is base on old 'FIXADDR_TOP', but the page mapping is base on
new 'FIXADDR_TOP', it will occur page fault, and the IDT is not
prepare yet, so, the system is dead.

So, put parse_early_param() in the front of
early_ioremap_init() in this patch.

Joseph Cihula 3162534069 x86, intel_txt: Intel TXT boot support
This patch adds kernel configuration and boot support for Intel Trusted
Execution Technology (Intel TXT).

Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel Trusted Execution
Technology (Intel TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.

Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).

Intel TXT in Brief:
o  Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
o  Data protection in case of improper shutdown
o  Measurement and verification of launched environment

Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
non-vPro systems.  It is currently available on desktop systems based on
the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell Optiplex 755, HP
dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45, PM45, and GS45
Express chipsets.

For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/.
This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual, which
has been updated for the new released platforms.

A much more complete description of how these patches support TXT, how to
configure a system for it, etc. is in the Documentation/intel_txt.txt file
in this patch.

This patch provides the TXT support routines for complete functionality,
documentation for TXT support and for the changes to the boot_params structure,
and boot detection of a TXT launch.  Attempts to shutdown (reboot, Sx) the system
will result in platform resets; subsequent patches will support these shutdown modes
properly.

Pekka J Enberg 854c879f5a x86: Move init_gbpages() to setup_arch()
The init_gbpages() function is conditionally called from
init_memory_mapping() function. There are two call-sites where
this 'after_bootmem' condition can be true: setup_arch() and
mem_init() via pci_iommu_alloc().

Therefore, it's safe to move the call to init_gbpages() to
setup_arch() as it's always called before mem_init().

This removes an after_bootmem use - paving the way to remove
all uses of that state variable.

Yinghai Lu 8c5dd8f433 x86: handle initrd that extends into unusable memory
On a system where system memory (according e820) is not covered by
mtrr, mtrr_trim_memory converts a portion of memory to reserved, but
bootloader has already put the initrd in that range.

Thus, we need to have 64bit to use relocate_initrd too.

H. Peter Anvin 5031296c57 x86: add extension fields for bootloader type and version
A long ago, in days of yore, it all began with a god named Thor.
There were vikings and boats and some plans for a Linux kernel
header.  Unfortunately, a single 8-bit field was used for bootloader
type and version.  This has generally worked without *too* much pain,
but we're getting close to flat running out of ID fields.

Add extension fields for both type and version.  The type will be
extended if it the old field is 0xE; the version is a simple MSB
extension.

Keep /proc/sys/kernel/bootloader_type containing
(type << 4) + (ver & 0xf) for backwards compatiblity, but also add
/proc/sys/kernel/bootloader_version which contains the full version
number.

Impact: cleanup

It's unused, since about 1995.  So remove all initialization of it in
preparation for actually removing the field.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 796216a57f x86: allow extend_brk users to reserve brk space
Impact: new interface; remove hard-coded limit

Add RESERVE_BRK(name, size) macro to reserve space in the brk
area.  This should be a conservative (ie, larger) estimate of
how much space might possibly be required from the brk area.
Any unused space will be freed, so there's no real downside
on making the reservation too large (within limits).

The name should be unique within a given file, and somewhat
descriptive.

The C definition of RESERVE_BRK() ends up being more complex than
one would expect to work around a cluster of gcc infelicities:

  The first attempt was to simply try putting __section(.brk_reservation)
  on a variable.  This doesn't work because it ends up making it a
  @progbits section, which gets actual space allocated in the vmlinux
  executable.

  The second attempt was to emit the space into a section using asm,
  but gcc doesn't allow arguments to be passed to file-level asm()
  statements, making it hard to pass in the size.

  The final attempt is to wrap the asm() in a function to allow
  it to have arguments, and put the function itself into the
  .discard section, which vmlinux*.lds drops entirely from the
  emitted vmlinux.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge ccf3fe02e3 x86-32: use brk segment for allocating initial kernel pagetable
Impact: use new interface instead of previous ad hoc implementation

Rather than having special purpose init_pg_table_start/end variables
to delimit the kernel pagetable built by head_32.S, just use the brk
mechanism to extend the bss for the new pagetable.

This patch removes init_pg_table_start/end and pg0, defines __brk_base
(which is page-aligned and immediately follows _end), initializes
the brk region to start there, and uses it for the 32-bit pagetable.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 93dbda7cbc x86: add brk allocation for very, very early allocations
Impact: new interface

Add a brk()-like allocator which effectively extends the bss in order
to allow very early code to do dynamic allocations.  This is better than
using statically allocated arrays for data in subsystems which may never
get used.

The space for brk allocations is in the bss ELF segment, so that the
space is mapped properly by the code which maps the kernel, and so
that bootloaders keep the space free rather than putting a ramdisk or
something into it.

The bss itself, delimited by __bss_stop, ends before the brk area
(__brk_base to __brk_limit).  The kernel text, data and bss is reserved
up to __bss_stop.

Any brk-allocated data is reserved separately just before the kernel
pagetable is built, as that code allocates from unreserved spaces
in the e820 map, potentially allocating from any unused brk memory.
Ultimately any unused memory in the brk area is used in the general
kernel memory pool.

Initially the brk space is set to 1MB, which is probably much larger
than any user needs (the largest current user is i386 head_32.S's code
to build the pagetables to map the kernel, which can get fairly large
with a big kernel image and no PSE support).  So long as the system
has sufficient memory for the bootloader to reserve the kernel+1MB brk,
there are no bad effects resulting from an over-large brk.

Brian Maly ff0c087490 x86: fix DMI on EFI
Impact: reactivate DMI quirks on EFI hardware

DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after
efi_init() and not before.

Currently Apple hardware uses DMI to determine the framebuffer mappings
for efifb. Without DMI working you also have no video on MacBook Pro.

This patch resolves the DMI issue for EFI hardware (DMI is now properly
detected at boot), and additionally efifb now loads on Apple hardware
(i.e. video works).

Make x86_quirks support more transparent. The highlevel
methods are now named:

  extern void x86_quirk_pre_intr_init(void);
  extern void x86_quirk_intr_init(void);

  extern void x86_quirk_trap_init(void);

  extern void x86_quirk_pre_time_init(void);
  extern void x86_quirk_time_init(void);

This makes it clear that if some platform extension has to
do something here that it is considered ... weird, and is
discouraged.

Also remove arch_hooks.h and move it into setup.h (and other
header files where appropriate).
