I suspect that without this fix, with the enhanced hotplug and kprobes patch, kprobes will use text_poke to insert breakpoints in modules (vmalloced pages used), which will map the wrong pages and corrupt random kernel locations instead of updating the correct page. Work that would write protect the module pages should clearly be done, but it can come in a later time. We have to make sure we interact correctly with the page allocation debugging, as an example. Here is the patch against x86.git 2.6.25-rc5 : The shadow vmap for DEBUG_RODATA kernel text modification uses virt_to_page to get the pages from the pointer address. However, I think vmalloc_to_page would be required in case the page is used for modules. Since only the core kernel text is marked read-only, use kernel_text_address() to make sure we only shadow map the core kernel text, not modules.

2008-04-17x86: clean up vSMP detectionRavikiran G Thirumalai
vSMP detection: access pci config space early in boot to detect if the system is a vSMPowered box, and cache the result in a flag, so that is_vsmp_box() retrieves the value of the flag always. Signed-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai <kiran@scalex86.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-04-17x86: only enable interrupts when kernel state has been set upJeremy Fitzhardinge
The sysenter path tries to enable interrupts immediately. Unfortunately this doesn't work in a paravirt environment, because not enough kernel state has been set up at that point (namely, pointing %fs to the kernel percpu data segment). To fix this, defer ENABLE_INTERRUPTS until after the kernel state has been set up. Unfortunately this means that we're running with interrupts disabled for a while without calling the IRQ tracing code, but that can't be called without setting up %fs either.
