2008-07-08x86: move x86_64 gdt closer to i386Glauber Costa
i386 and x86_64 used two different schemes for maintaining the gdt. With this patch, x86_64 initial gdt table is defined in a .c file, same way as i386 is now. Also, we call it "gdt_page", and the descriptor, "early_gdt_descr". This way we achieve common naming, which can allow for more code integration.

2008-04-17x86: don't set up early exception handlers for external interruptsAndi Kleen
All of early setup runs with interrupts disabled, so there is no need to set up early exception handlers for vectors >= 32 This saves some minor text size.

2008-01-30x86: early_idt_handler improvements, 64-bitRoland McGrath
It's not too pretty, but I found this made the "PANIC: early exception" messages become much more reliably useful: 1. print the vector number, 2. print the %cs value, 3. handle error-code-pushing vs non-pushing vectors.

2008-01-30x86 setup: initialize LDTR and TR to make life easier to Intel VTH. Peter Anvin
Intel VT doesn't like to engage when the protected-mode state isn't fully initialized. Make life easier for it by initializing LDTR (to null) and TR (to a dummy hunk of low memory which will never actually be touched.) Signed-off-by: H.

2008-01-30x86: <asm/segment.h>: boot GDT entries are 32/64-independentH. Peter Anvin
The boot GDT entries are common between 32- and 64-bit mode, so move them to common code instead of having two identical copies. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: remove arch specific segment headersGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This file puts the remainder of the arch specificic segment headers in segment.h. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: unify common parts of segment.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
Although segment handling in i386 and x86_64 are very different, there's a common part. Put them in segment.h instead of arch specific headers Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: put get_kernel_rpl in a common locationGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This macro is useful for both i386 and x86_64, so put it in a common location, where both arches can grab it. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
