vgacon: clean up global screen_info instances

2023-10-17T08:17:02Z

To prepare for completely separating the VGA console screen_info from the one used in EFI/sysfb, rename the vgacon instances and make them local as much as possible. ia64 and arm both have confurations with vgacon and efi, but the contents never overlaps because ia64 has no EFI framebuffer, and arm only has vga console on legacy platforms without EFI. Renaming these is required before the EFI screen_info can be moved into drivers/firmware. The ia64 vga console is actually registered in two places from setup_arch(), but one of them is wrong, so drop the one in pcdp.c and fix the one in setup.c to use the correct conditional. x86 has to keep them together, as the boot protocol is used to switch between VGA text console and framebuffer through the screen_info data.

vgacon: remove screen_info dependency

2023-10-17T08:17:02Z

The vga console driver is fairly self-contained, and only used by architectures that explicitly initialize the screen_info settings. Chance every instance that picks the vga console by setting conswitchp to call a function instead, and pass a reference to the screen_info there.

vgacon: rework screen_info #ifdef checks

2023-10-17T08:17:02Z

On non-x86 architectures, the screen_info variable is generally only used for the VGA console where supported, and in some cases the EFI framebuffer or vga16fb. Now that we have a definite list of which architectures actually use it for what, use consistent #ifdef checks so the global variable is only defined when it is actually used on those architectures. Loongarch and riscv have no support for vgacon or vga16fb, but they support EFI firmware, so only that needs to be checked, and the initialization can be removed because that is handled by EFI. IA64 has both vgacon and EFI, though EFI apparently never uses a framebuffer here.

crash_core: change the prototype of function parse_crashkernel()

Add two parameters 'low_size' and 'high' to function parse_crashkernel(), later crashkernel=,high|low parsing will be added. Make adjustments in all call sites of parse_crashkernel() in arch.

Pull x86 boot updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Initialize FPU late. Right now FPU is initialized very early during boot. There is no real requirement to do so. The only requirement is to have it done before alternatives are patched. That's done in check_bugs() which does way more than what the function name suggests. So first rename check_bugs() to arch_cpu_finalize_init() which makes it clear what this is about. Move the invocation of arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier in start_kernel() as it has to be done before fork_init() which needs to know the FPU register buffer size. With those prerequisites the FPU initialization can be moved into arch_cpu_finalize_init(), which removes it from the early and fragile part of the x86 bringup" * tag 'x86-boot-2023-06-26' of ssh://gitolite.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/mem_encrypt: Unbreak the AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=n build x86/fpu: Move FPU initialization into arch_cpu_finalize_init() x86/fpu: Mark init functions __init x86/fpu: Remove cpuinfo argument from init functions x86/init: Initialize signal frame size late init, x86: Move mem_encrypt_init() into arch_cpu_finalize_init() init: Invoke arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier init: Remove check_bugs() leftovers um/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() sparc/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() sh/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() mips/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() m68k/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() loongarch/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() ia64/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() ARM: cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() x86/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init() init: Provide arch_cpu_finalize_init()

mips: Move initrd_start check after initrd address sanitisation.

2023-05-23T09:01:38Z

PAGE_OFFSET is technically a virtual address so when checking the value of initrd_start against it we should make sure that it has been sanitised from the values passed by the bootloader. Without this change, even with a bootloader that passes correct addresses for an initrd, we are failing to load it on MT7621 boards, for example.

MIPS: Sink body of check_bugs_early() into its only call site

2023-04-22T21:29:00Z

If check_bugs_early() is not inlined, which a compiler is free to do after commit ac7c3e4ff401 ("compiler: enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING forcibly"), modpost would warn that check_bugs_early(), a non-init function, refers to check_bugs64_early(), which is marked __init. This would not result in any run time issues, as check_bugs_early() is only called from setup_arch(), which is marked __init. To avoid this potential warning, just sink the body of check_bugs_early() into its single call site in setup_arch(). Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer

This series fixes it. - Add for_each_cpu_andnot() and for_each_cpu_andnot() (Valentin Schneider) Extends the API with one more function and applies it in sched/core. * tag 'bitmap-6.1-rc1' of https://github.com/norov/linux: (28 commits) sched/core: Merge cpumask_andnot()+for_each_cpu() into for_each_cpu_andnot() lib/test_cpumask: Add for_each_cpu_and(not) tests cpumask: Introduce for_each_cpu_andnot() lib/find_bit: Introduce find_next_andnot_bit() cpumask: fix checking valid cpu range lib/bitmap: add tests for for_each() loops lib/find: optimize for_each() macros lib/bitmap: introduce for_each_set_bit_wrap() macro lib/find_bit: add find_next{,_and}_bit_wrap cpumask: switch for_each_cpu{,_not} to use for_each_bit() net: fix cpu_max_bits_warn() usage in netif_attrmask_next{,_and} cpumask: add cpumask_nth_{,and,andnot} lib/bitmap: remove bitmap_ord_to_pos lib/bitmap: add tests for find_nth_bit() lib: add find_nth{,_and,_andnot}_bit() lib/bitmap: add bitmap_weight_and() lib/bitmap: don't call __bitmap_weight() in kernel code tools: sync find_bit() implementation lib/find_bit: optimize find_next_bit() functions lib/find_bit: create find_first_zero_bit_le() ...
