x86, mm: Trim memory in memblock to be page aligned

2012-10-24T18:52:21Z

We will not map partial pages, so need to make sure memblock allocation will not allocate those bytes out. Also we will use for_each_mem_pfn_range() to loop to map memory range to keep them consistent.

firmware_map: make firmware_map_add_early() argument consistent with firmware_map_add_hotplug()

2012-07-31T00:25:17Z

There are two ways to create /sys/firmware/memmap/X sysfs: - firmware_map_add_early When the system starts, it is calledd from e820_reserve_resources() - firmware_map_add_hotplug When the memory is hot plugged, it is called from add_memory() But these functions are called without unifying value of end argument as below: - end argument of firmware_map_add_early() : start + size - 1 - end argument of firmware_map_add_hogplug() : start + size The patch unifies them to "start + size". Even if applying the patch, /sys/firmware/memmap/X/end file content does not change.

x86: print e820 physical addresses consistently with other parts of kernel

2012-05-29T23:22:20Z

Print physical address info in a style consistent with the %pR style used elsewhere in the kernel. For example: -BIOS-provided physical RAM map: +e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: - BIOS-e820: 0000000000000100 - 000000000009e000 (usable) +BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000100-0x000000000009dfff] usable -Allocating PCI resources starting at 90000000 (gap: 90000000:6ed1c000) +e820: [mem 0x90000000-0xfed1bfff] available for PCI devices -reserve RAM buffer: 000000000009e000 - 000000000009ffff +e820: reserve RAM buffer [mem 0x0009e000-0x0009ffff] Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Cc: Yinghai Lu Cc: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: "H.

This includes initial support for the recently published ACPI 5.0 spec. In particular, support for the "hardware-reduced" bit that eliminates the dependency on legacy hardware. APEI has patches resulting from testing on real hardware.

ACPI, Record ACPI NVS regions

2012-01-17T08:54:44Z

Some firmware will access memory in ACPI NVS region via APEI. That is, instructions in APEI ERST/EINJ table will read/write ACPI NVS region. The original resource conflict checking in APEI code will check memory/ioport accessed by APEI via general resource management mechanism. But ACPI NVS region is marked as busy already, so that the false resource conflict will prevent APEI ERST/EINJ to work. To fix this, this patch record ACPI NVS regions, so that we can avoid request resources for memory region inside it. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying Signed-off-by: Len Brown

x86, efi: Calling __pa() with an ioremap()ed address is invalid

2011-12-09T07:32:26Z

If we encounter an efi_memory_desc_t without EFI_MEMORY_WB set in ->attribute we currently call set_memory_uc(), which in turn calls __pa() on a potentially ioremap'd address. On CONFIG_X86_32 this is invalid, resulting in the following oops on some machines: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f7f22280 IP: [] reserve_ram_pages_type+0x89/0x210 [...] Call Trace: [] ? page_is_ram+0x1a/0x40 [] reserve_memtype+0xdf/0x2f0 [] set_memory_uc+0x49/0xa0 [] efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x1c2/0x3aa [] start_kernel+0x291/0x2f2 [] ? loglevel+0x1b/0x1b [] i386_start_kernel+0xbf/0xc8 A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache(). Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in the following bug report, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516 Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows us to delete efi_ioremap() completely. Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming Cc: H.
