2008-02-04	x86: fix EFI mapping	Huang, Ying	1	-2/+2
	The patch updates EFI runtime memory mapping code, by making EFI areas explicitly executable. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30	x86: introduce max_pfn_mapped	Thomas Gleixner	1	-2/+0
	64bit uses end_pfn_map and 32bit uses max_low_pfn. There are several files which have #ifdef'ed defines which map either to end_pfn_map or max_low_pfn. Replace this by a universal define and clean up all the other instances. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-01-30	x86: fix some bugs about EFI runtime code mapping	Huang, Ying	1	-1/+0
	This patch fixes some bugs of making EFI runtime code executable. - Use change_page_attr in i386 too. Because the runtime code may be mapped not through ioremap. - If there is no _PAGE_NX in __supported_pte_mask, the change_page_attr is not called. - Make efi_ioremap map pages as PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC_NOCACHE, because EFI runtime code may be mapped through efi_ioremap.

2008-01-30	x86 32-bit boot: rename bt_ioremap() to early_ioremap()	Huang, Ying	1	-8/+0
	This patch renames bt_ioremap to early_ioremap, which is used in x86_64. This makes it easier to merge i386 and x86_64 usage. [ mingo@elte.hu: fix ] Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30	x86: replace boot_ioremap() with enhanced bt_ioremap() - remove boot_ioremap()	Huang, Ying	1	-6/+2
	This patch replaces boot_ioremap invokation with bt_ioremap and removes the boot_ioremap implementation. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30	x86: EFI runtime service support: remove duplicated code from efi_32.c	Huang, Ying	1	-0/+42
	This patch removes the duplicated code between efi_32.c and efi.c. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30	x86: EFI runtime service support	Huang, Ying	1	-0/+70
	This patch adds basic runtime services support for EFI x86_64 system. The main file of the patch is the addition of efi_64.c for x86_64. This file is modeled after the EFI IA32 avatar. EFI runtime services initialization are implemented in efi_64.c. Some x86_64 specifics are worth noting here. On x86_64, parameters passed to EFI firmware services need to follow the EFI calling convention. For this purpose, a set of functions named efi_call<x> (<x> is the number of parameters) are implemented. EFI function calls are wrapped before calling the firmware service. The duplicated code between efi_32.c and efi_64.c is placed in efi.c to remove them from efi_32.c.
