2008-04-17x86: PAT infrastructure patchvenkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com
Sets up pat_init() infrastructure. PAT MSR has following setting. PAT |PCD ||PWT ||| 000 WB _PAGE_CACHE_WB 001 WC _PAGE_CACHE_WC 010 UC- _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS 011 UC _PAGE_CACHE_UC We are effectively changing WT from boot time setting to WC. UC_MINUS is used to provide backward compatibility to existing /dev/mem users(X). reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free mapping. It is currently implemented in a simple way with a linked list and not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT. pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr are same.

2008-04-17x86: add cpu_has_arch_perfmonstephane eranian
adds cpu_has_arch_perfmon to test presence of architectural perfmon on Intel x86 processor Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-04-17x86: clean up cpu capabilities accessesIngo Molnar
introduce test_cpu_cap() for raw access to the real CPU capabilities as they are present in x86_capability. (cpu_has() will shortcut certain tests during build-time) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-02-04x86: unify CPU feature string namesH. Peter Anvin
Move the CPU feature string names to a separate file (common to 32 and 64 bits); additionally, make <asm/cpufeature.h> includable by host code in preparation for including the CPU feature strings in the boot code.

2008-01-30x86: add framework to disable CPUID bits on the command lineAndi Kleen
There are already various options to disable specific cpuid bits on the command line. They all use their own variable. Add a generic mask to make this easier in the future.

2008-01-30x86: 64-bit, remove redundant cpu_has_ definitionsKyle McMartin
PSE, PGE, XMM, XMM2, and FXSR are defined as required features, and will be optimized to a constant at compile time. Remove their redundant definitions. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: remove the now unused X86_FEATURE_SYNC_RDTSCAndi Kleen
we need to know whether RDTSC is synchronous or not. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: Implement support to synchronize RDTSC with LFENCE on Intel CPUsAndi Kleen
According to Intel RDTSC can be always synchronized with LFENCE on all current CPUs. Implement the necessary CPUID bit for that. It is unclear yet if that is true for all future CPUs too, but if there's another way the kernel can be always updated.

2008-01-30x86: x86-64 wired cpu_has macrosRoland McGrath
This adds hard-wired definitions for the remaining cpu_has_* macros that correspond to flags required-features.h demands are set for 64-bit. Using these can efficiently avoid some #ifdef's when merging 32-bit and 64-bit code together.

2008-01-30x86: add set/clear_cpu_cap operationsJeremy Fitzhardinge
The patch to suppress bitops-related warnings added a pile of ugly casts. Many of these were related to the management of x86 CPU capabilities. Clean these up by adding specific set/clear_cpu_cap macros, and use them consistently.
