This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.
If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.
With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.
In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.
An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.
A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt
and I've put a copy online at
ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt

This patch fixes some bugs of EFI memory handing code.
- On x86_64, it is possible that EFI memory map can not be mapped via
identity map, so efi_map_memmap is removed, just use early_ioremap.
- On i386, the EFI memory map mapping take effect cross paging_init,
so it is not necessary to use efi_map_memmap.
- EFI memory map is unmapped in efi_enter_virtual_mode to avoid
early_ioremap leak.

Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd.

This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option
as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/
once that patch gets merged into mainline.
(I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll
wait with that until init.c is unified)
As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h

The existing Geode GPIO API only allows for updating one GPIO at once. There
are instances where users want to update multiple GPIOs at once. With the
current API, they are given two choices; either ignore the GPIO API:
outl(0xc000, gpio_base + GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL);
outl(0xc000, gpio_base + GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE);
Alternatively, call each GPIO update separately:
geode_gpio_set(14, GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL);
geode_gpio_set(15, GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL);
geode_gpio_set(14, GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE);
geode_gpio_set(15, GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE);
Neither are desirable. This patch changes the GPIO API to allow for setting
of multiple GPIOs at once; rather than being passed an integer, we pass
a bitmask and provide a translation function. The above code would now
look like this:
geode_gpio_set(geode_gpio(14)|geode_gpio(15), GPIO_OUTPUT_VAL);
geode_gpio_set(geode_gpio(14)|geode_gpio(15), GPIO_OUTPUT_ENABLE);
Since there are no upstream users of the GPIO API yet (afaik), best to
change this now. This also adds a bit of sanity checking; it is no
longer possible to use a GPIO above 28.
Note the semantics of geode_gpio_isset() have changed:
geode_gpio_isset(geode_gpio(3)|geode_gpio(4), ...)
will only return true iff both GPIOs are set.

polling method is used for unknown reasons.)
This patch series now
1. export the functions from arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c that the old char/rtc
driver uses to work around that problem,
2. makes it possible to compile the old rtc driver as module, while still
having CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC enabled and
3. makes use of the exported functions in (1) in the new rtc-cmos driver.
This patch:
This patch makes the RTC emulation functions in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c usable
for kernel modules. It
- exports the functions (EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()),
- adds an interface to register the interrupt callback function
instead of using only a fixed callback function and
- replaces the rtc_get_rtc_time() function which depends on
CONFIG_RTC with a call to get_rtc_time() which is defined in
include/asm-generic/rtc.h.
The only dependency to CONFIG_RTC is the call to rtc_interrupt() which is
removed by the next patch. After this, there's no (code) dependency of
this functions to CONFIG_RTC=y any more.

I am preparing to convert the boot time page table to the kernels
native format. To achieve that I need to enable PAE. Enabling PSE
and the no execute bit would not hurt. So this patch modifies
the boot cpu path to execute all of the kernels enable code
if and only if we have the proper bits set in mmu_cr4_features.

Currently in head_32.S there are two ways we test to see if we
are the boot cpu. By looking at %ebx and by looking at the
static variable ready. When changing things around I have
found that it gets tricky to preserve %ebx. So this
patch just switches head.S over to the more reliable
test of always using ready.
Hopefully later we can kill these tests entirely.
