this function doesnt just 'find' the max_pfn - it also has other side-effects such as registering sparse memory maps. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

This patch adds explicit detection of the EBDA and reservation of the rom and adapter address space 0xa0000-0x100000 to the i386 kernels. Before this patch, the EBDA size was hardcoded as 4Kb. Also, the reservation of the adapter range was done by modifying the e820 map which is now not necessary any longer, and that code is removed from copy_e820_map. The amount of conventional memory and the start of the EBDA are detected by reading the BIOS data area directly. Paravirtual environments do not provide this area, so we bail out early in that case. They will just have to set up a correct memory map to start with. Signed-off-by: Alexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

fix the bug reported here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10232 use update_memory_range() instead of add_memory_range() directly to avoid closing the gap. ( the new code only affects and runs on systems where the MTRR workaround triggers. ) Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

when MTRRs are not covering the whole e820 table, we need to trim the RAM and need to update e820. reuse some code on 64-bit as well. here need to add early_get_cap and use it in early_cpu_detect, and move mtrr_bp_init early. The code successfully trimmed the memory map on Justin's system: from: [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: 0000000100000000 - 000000022c000000 (usable) to: [ 0.000000] modified: 0000000100000000 - 0000000228000000 (usable) [ 0.000000] modified: 0000000228000000 - 000000022c000000 (reserved) According to Justin it makes quite a difference: | When I boot the box without any trimming it acts like a 286 or 386, | takes about 10 minutes to boot (using raptor disks).

This patch removes the extern struct resource declarations for data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource on x86 and declares that three structures as static as done on other architectures like IA64. On i386, these structures are moved to setup_32.c (from e820_32.c) because that's code that is not specific to e820 and also required on EFI systems. That makes the "extern" reference superfluous. On x86_64, data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource are passed to e820_reserve_resources() as arguments just as done on i386 and IA64. That also avoids the "extern" reference and it's possible to make it static.

Add the BSS to the resource tree just as kernel text and kernel data are in the resource tree. The main reason behind this is to avoid crashkernel reservation in that area. While it's not strictly necessary to have the BSS in the resource tree (the actual collision detection is done in the reserve_bootmem() function before), the usage of the BSS resource should be presented to the user in /proc/iomem just as Kernel data and Kernel code. Note: The patch currently is only implemented for x86 and ia64 (because efi_initialize_iomem_resources() has the same signature on i386 and ia64).

This patch removes the crashkernel parsing from arch/i386/kernel/machine_kexec.c and calls the generic function, introduced in the last patch, in setup_bootmem_allocator(). This is necessary because the amount of System RAM must be known in this function now because of the new syntax.
