cpuid_class_cpu_callback() is callback function of a CPU hotplug notifier_block (that is already marked as __cpuinitdata). Therefore it can safely be marked as __cpuinit. cpuid_device_create() is only referenced from other functions that are __cpuinit or __init. So it can also be safely marked __cpuinit.

cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() and cache_remove_shared_cpu_map() are functions called from another function that is __cpuinit. But the !CONFIG_SMP empty-body stubs of these functions are unconditionally marked __init, which is actively wrong, and will lead to oops. But we never saw this oops, because they always managed to get inlined in their callsites, by virtue of being empty-body stubs! They should still be __cpuinit, of course. assocs[], levels[] and types[] are only referenced from function that is __cpuinit. So these are candidates for being marked __cpuinitdata.

HP ProLiant systems DL385 G2 and DL585 G2 need pci=bfsort to enumerate PCI devices in the expected order. Matt sayeth: biosdevname is a userspace app I wrote to help solve this so we don't need to patch the kernel for future systems. It's not integrated into any distributions properly yet, but is included in openSUSE 10.3 and Fedora 8 for people who want to download and install it there. It acts as a udev helper. For the time being, patching the kernel is necessary. I really hope biosdevname eliminates that need in future distributions. http://linux.dell.com/biosdevname/Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Cc: <john.cagle@hp.com> Cc: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> Cc: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Huang, Ying authored
This patch fixes a bug of change_page_attr/change_page_attr_addr on Intel x86_64 CPUs. After changing page attribute to be executable with these functions, the page remains un-executable on Intel x86_64 CPU. Because on Intel x86_64 CPU, only if the "NX" bits of all four level page tables are cleared, the corresponding page is executable (refer to section 4.13.2 of Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual). So, the bug is fixed through clearing the "NX" bit of PMD when splitting the huge PMD.

if CONFIG_PAGEALLOC is enabled then X86_FEATURE_PSE is disabled and all the kernel physical RAM pagetables are set up as 4K pages. This is needed so that CONFIG_PAGEALLOC can do finegrained mapping and unmapping of pages. as a side-effect though, the total size of memory allocated as kernel pagetables increases significantly. All these pagetables are allocated via alloc_bootmem_low_pages(), straight out of the lowmem DMA pool. If the system has enough RAM and a large kernel image then almost all of the 16 MB lowmem DMA pool is allocated to the image and to pagetables - leaving no space for __GFP_DMA allocations. this results in drivers failing and the bootup hanging: swapper invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x80d1, order=0, oomkilladj=0 [<4015059f>] out_of_memory+0x17f/0x1c0 [<40151f3c>] __alloc_pages+0x37c/0x3a0 [<40168cd7>] slob_new_page+0x37/0x50 [<40168dff>] slob_alloc+0x10f/0x190 [<40169010>] __kmalloc_node+0x80/0x90 [<405a17e3>] scsi_host_alloc+0x33/0x2c0 [<405a1a82>] scsi_register+0x12/0x60 [<40d5889e>] aha1542_detect+0x9e/0x940 [<405c5ba5>] ultrastor_detect+0x265/0x5f0 [<401352f5>] getnstimeofday+0x35/0xf0 [<40d58751>] init_this_scsi_driver+0x41/0xf0 [<40d0b856>] kernel_init+0x136/0x310 [<40d58710>] init_this_scsi_driver+0x0/0xf0 [<40d0b720>] kernel_init+0x0/0x310 [<40105547>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 ======================= the fix is to first allocate from above the DMA pool, and if that fails (for example due to it being a machine with less than 16 MB of RAM), allocate from the DMA pool as a fallback.

To preserve the DMA pool in CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y kernels, we'll allocate pagetables from above the 16MB DMA limit, so we'll have to set up boot pagetables to cover 16MB more RAM (worst-case). Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
