Commit 9c869edac5 broke voyager again
rather subtly because it already had its own topology exporting
functions, so now each CPU gets registered twice.
I think we can actually use the generic ones, so I don't propose
reverting it. The attached should eliminate the voyager topology
functions in favour of the generic ones.
I also added a define to ensure voyager is never hotplug CPU (we don't
have the support in the SMP harness).

When compiling a non-default subarch, topology.c is missing from the kernel
build. This causes builds with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU to fail. In addition,
on Intel processors with cpuid level > 4, it causes intel_cacheinfo.c to
reference uninitialized data that should have been set up by the initcall
in topology.c which calls register_cpu. This causes a kernel panic on boot
on newer Intel processors. Moving topology.c to arch/i386/kernel fixes
both of these problems.

Recent GDT changes broke the SMP boot sequence if the booting CPU is
numbered anything other than zero. There's also a subtle source of error
in that the boot time CPU now uses cpu_gdt_table (which is actually the GDT
for booting CPUs in head.S). This patch fixes both problems by making GDT
descriptors themselves allocated from a per_cpu area and switching to them
in cpu_init(), which now means that cpu_gdt_table is exclusively used for
booting CPUs again.

The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I
used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that
on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement
fstatat64.
This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make
this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64
the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what
is done for the other stat syscalls as well.
This patch might break some other archs (those which define
__ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others
might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't
want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in
glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch
maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are
eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed).

than over possible ones. That can be quite expensive.
b) Soon we'll be allocating per-cpu areas only for possible CPUs. So with
CPU_MASK_ALL, we'll be wasting memory.
I also switched voyager over to not use CPU_MASK_ALL in the non-CPU-hotplug

Fix the problem in kernel 2.6.15.1 (and early versions) that OProfile on
x86_64 does not correctly collect the stack traces for kernel functions.
The original code in valid_kernel_stack() in arch/i386/oprofile/backtrace.c
assumes that the frame pointer (headaddr) should be greater than stack
(i.e., regs).
This assumption is wrong for x86_64 because NMIs in x86_64 use a seperate
stack different from the kernel stack. Therefore, the variable stack now
points to some location on the NMI stack, which turns out to be at a higher
address than the frame pointer (headaddr) on the kernel stack. The correct
comparison here should be between headaddr and regs->rsp for x86_64.

Enable selection of different user/kernel VM splits for i386, including an
optimized mode for 1GB physical RAM, which gives the kernel a direct (non
HIGHMEM) mapping to the entire 1GB rather than just the first 896MB.
There is a similarly a similarly optimized mode for machines with exactly 2GB
of physical RAM.
This can speed up the kernel by avoiding having to create/destroy temporary
HIGHMEM mappings, and by not having to include HIGHMEM support at all on such
machines. The flip side is that there's less virtual addressing left for
userspace in these alternatives, and some binary-only kernel modules may
misbehave unless rebuilt with the same VMSPLIT option as the main kernel
image.

Handle TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK as added by David Woodhouse's patch entitled:
[PATCH] 2/3 Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK support for arch/powerpc
[PATCH] 3/3 Generic sys_rt_sigsuspend
It does the following:
(1) Declares TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for i386.
(2) Invokes it over to do_signal() when TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set.
(3) Makes do_signal() support TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, using the signal mask saved
in current->saved_sigmask.
(4) Discards sys_rt_sigsuspend() from the arch, using the generic one instead.
(5) Makes sys_sigsuspend() save the signal mask and set TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
rather than attempting to fudge the return registers.
(6) Makes sys_sigsuspend() return -ERESTARTNOHAND rather than looping
intrinsically.
(7) Makes setup_frame(), setup_rt_frame() and handle_signal() return 0 or
-EFAULT rather than true/false to be consistent with the rest of the
kernel.
Due to the fact do_signal() is then only called from one place:
(8) Makes do_signal() no longer have a return value is it was just being
ignored; force_sig() takes care of this.
(9) Discards the old sigmask argument to do_signal() as it's no longer
necessary.
(10) Makes do_signal() static.
(11) Marks the second argument to do_notify_resume() as unused. The unused
argument should remain in the middle as the arguments are passed in as
registers, and the ordering is specific in entry.S
Given the way do_signal() is now no longer called from sys_{,rt_}sigsuspend(),
they no longer need access to the exception frame, and so can just take
arguments normally.
This patch depends on sys_rt_sigsuspend patch.

Allow gcc4 compilers to optimize unit-at-a-time.
This flag enables gcc to "see" the entire C file before making optimisation
decisions such as inline, which results in gcc making better decisions. One
of the immediate effects of this is that static functions that are used only
once now get inlined.
gcc 3.4 has this flag as well, however gcc 3.x have a problem with inlining
and stacks and as a result, enabling this flag there would cause excessive and
unacceptable stack use. This problem is fixed in the gcc 4.x series. The

Seems that the CS5530A chip used in Geode GX1 systems has some crazy feature
that causes SMI traps when accessing the PCI configuration space of the video
device. Various GX1 BIOSes seem to use this 'feature' to hide the real BARs
of the device. This patch disables these traps (in an early PCI fixup) so
that Linux sees the real, physical BARs and not the virtual ones provided by
the BIOS.
This should allow the GX1 framebuffer driver to work on more systems that have
different BIOSes as the driver no longer guesses at what the virtual BARs
mean.
I'm not entirely sure it the correct solution as I can neither test regular
VGA console nor the X's 'cyrix' video driver so there might be some breakage
there -- probably best to get some more testers before applying it.
