2008-07-08x86 boot: pass E820 memory map entries more than 128 via linked list of ↵Huang, Ying
setup data Because of the size limits of struct boot_params (zero page), the maximum number of E820 memory map entries can be passed to kernel is 128. As pointed by Paul Jackson, there is some machine produced by SGI with so many nodes that the number of E820 memory map entries is more than 128. To enabling Linux kernel on these system, a new setup data type named SETUP_E820_EXT is defined to pass additional memory map entries to Linux kernel. This patch is based on x86/auto-latest branch of git-x86 tree and has been tested on x86_64 and i386 platform.

2008-06-10x86: introduce max_physical_apicid for bigsmp switchingYinghai Lu
a multi-socket test-system with 3 or 4 ioapics, when 4 dualcore cpus or 2 quadcore cpus installed, needs to switch to bigsmp or physflat. CPU apic id is [4,11] instead of [0,7], and we need to check max apic id instead of cpu numbers. also add check for 32 bit when acpi is not compiled in or acpi=off.

2008-05-12x86: [VOYAGER] fix duplicate phys_cpu_present_map symbolJames Bottomley
The phys_cpu_present_map is an expected symbol in the SMP harness. Unfortunately, x86 recently moved this and a few others to kernel/setup.c where it doesn't quite work because voyager has to define its own. Use CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC to isolate these definitions and fix up another area in setup.c where CONFIG_X86_SMP should be used instead of CONFIG_SMP.

2008-04-19x86: convert cpumask_of_cpu macro to allocated arrayMike Travis
* Here is a simple patch to use an allocated array of cpumasks to represent cpumask_of_cpu() instead of constructing one on the stack. It's based on the Kconfig option "HAVE_CPUMASK_OF_CPU_MAP" which is currently only set for x86_64 SMP. Otherwise the the existing cpumask_of_cpu() is used but has been changed to produce an lvalue so a pointer to it can be used. Cc: H.

2008-04-17x86: use specialized routine for setup per-cpu areaGlauber de Oliveira Costa
We use the same routing as x86_64, moved now to setup.c. Just with a few ifdefs inside. Note that this routing uses prefill_possible_map(). It has the very nice side effect of allowing hotplugging of cpus that are marked as present but disabled by acpi bios.
