2008-04-17x86: use ELF section to list CPU vendor specific codeThomas Petazzoni1-1/+4
Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure. This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu() functions. This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly. This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU support code.

2008-02-02x86: fix bootup crash in native_read_tsc()Ingo Molnar1-1/+1
fix bootup crash in native_read_tsc() that was reported on an Athlon-XP and bisected. The correct feature boundary for X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC is not XMM but XMM2.

2008-01-30x86: use the correct cpuid method to detect MWAIT support for C statesAndi Kleen1-3/+0
Previously there was a AMD specific quirk to handle the case of AMD Fam10h MWAIT not supporting any C states. But it turns out that CPUID already has ways to detectly detect that without using special quirks. The new code simply checks if MWAIT supports at least C1 and doesn't use it if it doesn't. No more vendor specific code. Note this is does not simply clear MWAIT because MWAIT can be still useful even without C states. Credit goes to Ben Serebrin for pointing out the (nearly) obvious.

2008-01-30x86: move X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC into early cpu feature detectionAndi Kleen1-6/+11
Need this in the next patch in time_init and that happens early. This includes a minor fix on i386 where early_intel_workarounds() [which is now called early_init_intel] really executes early as the comments say.

2008-01-30x86: implement support to synchronize RDTSC through MFENCE on AMD CPUsAndi Kleen1-0/+3
According to AMD RDTSC can be synchronized through MFENCE. Implement the necessary CPUID bit for that. Cc: andreas.herrmann3@amd.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
