David Woodhouse ffee0de411 x86: Default to ARCH=x86 to avoid overriding CONFIG_64BIT
It is easy to waste a bunch of time when one takes a 32-bit .config
from a test machine and try to build it on a faster 64-bit system, and
its existing setting of CONFIG_64BIT=n gets *changed* to match the
build host.  Similarly, if one has an existing build tree it is easy
to trash an entire build tree that way.

This is because the default setting for $ARCH when discovered from
'uname' is one of the legacy pre-x86-merge values (i386 or x86_64),
which effectively force the setting of CONFIG_64BIT to match. We should
default to ARCH=x86 instead, finally completing the merge that we
started so long ago.

This patch preserves the behaviour of the legacy ARCH settings for commands
such as:

   make ARCH=x86_64 randconfig
   make ARCH=i386 randconfig

... since making the value of CONFIG_64BIT actually random in that situation
is not desirable.

In time, perhaps we can retire this legacy use of the old ARCH= values.
We already have a way to override values for *any* config option, using
$KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, so it could be argued that we don't necessarily need
to keep ARCH={i386,x86_64} around as a special case just for overriding
CONFIG_64BIT.

We'd probably at least want to add a way to override config options from
the command line ('make CONFIG_FOO=y oldconfig') before we talk about doing
that though.

Josh Triplett c206b9dcb1 x86/Kconfig: Turn off DEBUG_NX_TEST module in defconfigs
The x86 defconfigs include exactly one module: test_nx.ko, a
special-purpose module which just exists to do evil things like
executing code off the stack to see if the kernel has enabled NX
support.  Anyone who actually uses that module can easily enable
it themselves, but the vast majority of kernel builds don't need
it; disable it by default.

Josh Triplett be2f328d86 x86/Kconfig: Turn off CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM
The vast majority of systems either use initramfs or mount a
root filesystem directly from the kernel.  Distros have
defaulted to initramfs for years.  Only highly specialized
systems would use an actual filesystem-image initrd at this
point, and such systems don't rely on defconfig anyway.  Drop
initrd support (and specifically RAM block device support) from
the defconfigs.

Daniel Lezcano a77aea9201 cgroup: remove the ns_cgroup
The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:

  * cgroup creation is out-of-control
  * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
  * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
    namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
  * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup

  The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
  where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
  The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
  the 'tasks' file.

This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html

The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.

This is a userspace-visible change.  Commit 45531757b4 ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal.  Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

Fenghua Yu cb84b19474 x86, hwmon: Package Level Thermal/Power: pkgtemp hwmon driver
This patch adds a hwmon driver for package level thermal control. The driver
dumps package level thermal information through sysfs interface so that upper
level application (e.g. lm_sensor) can retrive the information.

Instead of having the package level hwmon code in coretemp, I write a seperate
driver pkgtemp because:

First, package level thermal sensors include not only sensors for each core,
but also sensors for uncore, memory controller or other components in the
package. Logically it will be clear to have a seperate hwmon driver for package
level hwmon to monitor wider range of sensors in a package. Merging package
thermal driver into core thermal driver doesn't make sense and may mislead.

Secondly, merging the two drivers together may cause coding mess. It's easier
to include various package level sensors info if more sensor information is
implemented. Coretemp code needs to consider a lot of legacy machine cases.
Pkgtemp code only considers platform starting from Sandy Bridge.

On a 1Sx4Cx2T Sandy Bridge platform, lm-sensors dumps the pkgtemp and coretemp:

physical id 0: +33.0°C  (high = +79.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)

Ingo Molnar 965c7ecaf2 x86: remove the Voyager 32-bit subarch
Impact: remove unused/broken code

The Voyager subarch last built successfully on the v2.6.26 kernel
and has been stale since then and does not build on the v2.6.27,
v2.6.28 and v2.6.29-rc5 kernels.

No actual users beyond the maintainer reported this breakage.
Patches were sent and most of the fixes were accepted but the
discussion around how to do a few remaining issues cleanly
fizzled out with no resolution and the code remained broken.

In the v2.6.30 x86 tree development cycle 32-bit subarch support
has been reworked and removed - and the Voyager code, beyond the
build problems already known, needs serious and significant
changes and probably a rewrite to support it.

CONFIG_X86_VOYAGER has been marked BROKEN then. The maintainer has
been notified but no patches have been sent so far to fix it.

While all other subarchs have been converted to the new scheme,
voyager is still broken. We'd prefer to receive patches which
clean up the current situation in a constructive way, but even in
case of removal there is no obstacle to add that support back
after the issues have been sorted out in a mutually acceptable
fashion.

So remove this inactive code for now.

truncated - double it to 256K.

H. Peter Anvin 5b7e41ff37 x86: additional defconfig updates
Additional updates to the x86 defconfigs.  The goals are, as before:

- Make them usable to testers, more so than distributors or end users,
  both of which are likely to have their own config already.
- Keep 32 and 64 bits as similar as is practical.

Changes:

- Use a more generic CPU type (ppro and generic, respectively).
- Bump number of CPUs to 64 (few if any NR_CPUS arrays left).
- Enable PAT.
- Enable OPTIMIZE_INLINE.
- Enable microcode update support.
- Build SMT scheduler support (in addition to MC).

Alexey Dobriyan a57a5c2e8d x86 setup: remove remnants of CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT (read: vga=)
Impact: cleanup

Video mode selection became always possible in 2.6.23-rc1 after i386 setup
code rewrite in C.

Regardless, VIDEO_SELECT is stupid config option because it affects only
kernel setup code, not code which always stays in memory.

vga= always possible now which is good.

Ingo Molnar d092633bff Subject: devmem, x86: fix rename of CONFIG_NONPROMISC_DEVMEM
From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org>
Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2008 15:47:17 -0700

CONFIG_NONPROMISC_DEVMEM was a rather confusing name - but renaming it
to CONFIG_PROMISC_DEVMEM causes problems on architectures that do not
support this feature; this patch renames it to CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM,
so that architectures can opt-in into it.

( the polarity of the option is still the same as it was originally; it
  needs to be for now to not break architectures that don't have the
  infastructure yet to support this feature)

Ingo Molnar 60a3cdd063 x86: add optimized inlining
add CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y.

allow gcc to optimize the kernel image's size by uninlining
functions that have been marked 'inline'. Previously gcc was
forced by Linux to always-inline these functions via a gcc
attribute:

 #define inline	inline __attribute__((always_inline))

Especially when the user has already selected
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y this can make a huge difference in
kernel image size (using a standard Fedora .config):

   text    data     bss     dec           hex filename
   5613924  562708 3854336 10030968    990f78 vmlinux.before
   5486689  562708 3854336  9903733    971e75 vmlinux.after

that's a 2.3% text size reduction (!).

Christoph Lameter b263295dbf x86: 64-bit, make sparsemem vmemmap the only memory model
Use sparsemem as the only memory model for UP, SMP and NUMA.  Measurements
indicate that DISCONTIGMEM has a higher overhead than sparsemem.  And
FLATMEMs benefits are minimal.  So I think its best to simply standardize
on sparsemem.

Results of page allocator tests (test can be had via git from slab git
tree branch tests)

Measurements in cycle counts. 1000 allocations were performed and then the
average cycle count was calculated.

Order	FlatMem	Discontig	SparseMem
0	  639	  665		  641
1	  567	  647		  593
2	  679	  774		  692
3	  763	  967		  781
4	  961	 1501		  962
5	 1356	 2344		 1392
6	 2224	 3982		 2336
7	 4869	 7225		 5074
8	12500	14048		12732
9	27926	28223		28165
10	58578	58714		58682

(Note that FlatMem is an SMP config and the rest NUMA configurations)

Memory use:

SMP Sparsemem
-------------

Kernel size:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
3849268  397739 1264856 5511863  541ab7 vmlinux

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       8242252      41164    8201088          0        352      11512
-/+ buffers/cache:      29300    8212952
Swap:      9775512          0    9775512

SMP Flatmem
-----------

Kernel size:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
3844612  397739 1264536 5506887  540747 vmlinux

So 4.5k growth in text size vs. FLATMEM.

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       8244052      40544    8203508          0        352      11484
-/+ buffers/cache:      28708    8215344

2k growth in overall memory use after boot.

NUMA discontig:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
3888124  470659 1276504 5635287  55fcd7 vmlinux

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       8256256      56908    8199348          0        352      11496
-/+ buffers/cache:      45060    8211196
Swap:      9775512          0    9775512

NUMA sparse:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
3896428  470659 1276824 5643911  561e87 vmlinux

8k text growth. Given that we fully inline virt_to_page and friends now
that is rather good.

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       8264720      57240    8207480          0        352      11516
-/+ buffers/cache:      45372    8219348
Swap:      9775512          0    9775512

The total available memory is increased by 8k.

This patch makes sparsemem the default and removes discontig and
flatmem support from x86.
