2009-03-04x86: EFI: Back efi_ioremap with init_memory_mapping instead of FIX_MAPHuang Ying2-19/+9
Impact: Fix boot failure on EFI system with large runtime memory range Brian Maly reported that some EFI system with large runtime memory range can not boot. Because the FIX_MAP used to map runtime memory range is smaller than run time memory range. This patch fixes this issue by re-implement efi_ioremap() with init_memory_mapping().

2009-03-04x86: fix DMI on EFIBrian Maly1-2/+3
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).

2009-03-03x86-64: syscall-audit: fix 32/64 syscall holeRoland McGrath1-1/+1
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases, audit_syscall_entry() will use the wrong system call number table and the wrong system call argument registers. This could be used to circumvent a syscall audit configuration that filters based on the syscall numbers or argument details.

2009-03-02x86: unify chunks of kernel/process*.cJeremy Fitzhardinge3-361/+190
With x86-32 and -64 using the same mechanism for managing the tss io permissions bitmap, large chunks of process*.c are trivially unifyable, including: - exit_thread - flush_thread - __switch_to_xtra (along with tsc enable/disable) and as bonus pickups: - sys_fork - sys_vfork (Note: asmlinkage expands to empty on x86-64) Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-03-02x86-32: use non-lazy io bitmap context switchingJeremy Fitzhardinge3-84/+9
Impact: remove 32-bit optimization to prepare unification x86-32 and -64 differ in the way they context-switch tasks with io permission bitmaps. x86-64 simply copies the next tasks io bitmap into place (if any) on context switch. x86-32 invalidates the bitmap on context switch, so that the next IO instruction will fault; at that point it installs the appropriate IO bitmap. This makes context switching IO-bitmap-using tasks a bit more less expensive, at the cost of making the next IO instruction slower due to the extra fault. This tradeoff only makes sense if IO-bitmap-using processes are relatively common, but they don't actually use IO instructions very often. However, in a typical desktop system, the only process likely to be using IO bitmaps is the X server, and nothing at all on a server. Therefore the lazy context switch doesn't really win all that much, and its just a gratuitious difference from 64-bit code. This patch removes the lazy context switch, with a view to unifying this code in a later change.
