2009-01-27x86: initialize per-cpu GDT segment in per-cpu setupBrian Gerst
Impact: cleanup Rename init_gdt() to setup_percpu_segment(), and move it to setup_percpu.c. Signed-off-by: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-01-27x86: move this_cpu_offsetBrian Gerst
Impact: Small cleanup Define BOOT_PERCPU_OFFSET and use it for this_cpu_offset and __per_cpu_offset initializers. Signed-off-by: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-01-19x86-64: Move cpu number from PDA to per-cpu and consolidate with 32-bit.Brian Gerst
tj: moved cpu_number definition out of CONFIG_HAVE_SETUP_PER_CPU_AREA for voyager. Signed-off-by: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-01-16x86_64: initialize this_cpu_off to __per_cpu_loadTejun Heo
On x86_64, if get_per_cpu_var() is used before per cpu area is setup (if lockdep is turned on, it happens), it needs this_cpu_off to point to __per_cpu_load. Initialize accordingly. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2009-01-16x86: merge 64 and 32 SMP percpu handlingTejun Heo
Now that pda is allocated as part of percpu, percpu doesn't need to be accessed through pda. Unify x86_64 SMP percpu access with x86_32 SMP one. Other than the segment register, operand size and the base of percpu symbols, they behave identical now. This patch replaces now unnecessary pda->data_offset with a dummy field which is necessary to keep stack_canary at its place. This patch also moves per_cpu_offset initialization out of init_gdt() into setup_per_cpu_areas(). Note that this change also necessitates explicit per_cpu_offset initializations in voyager_smp.c. With this change, x86_OP_percpu()'s are as efficient on x86_64 as on x86_32 and also x86_64 can use assembly PER_CPU macros.

2008-08-15x86: change init_gdt to update the gdt via write_gdt, rather than a direct ↵Alex Nixon
write. By writing directly, a memory access violation can occur whilst hotplugging a CPU if the entry was previously marked read-only. Signed-off-by: Alex Nixon <alex.nixon@citrix.com> Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <Jeremy.Fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-06-26x86: convert to generic helpers for IPI function callsJens Axboe
This converts x86, x86-64, and xen to use the new helpers for smp_call_function() and friends, and adds support for smp_call_function_single(). Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2008-04-17x86: create smpcommon.cGlauber Costa
This patch creates smpcommon.c with functions that are equal between architectures. The i386-only init_gdt is ifdef'd. Note that smpcommon.o figures twice in the Makefile: this is because sub-architectures like voyager that does not use the normal smp_$(BITS) files also have to access them Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
