2012-05-15x86: kernel/check.c simple_strtoul cleanupShuah Khan
Change set_corruption_check() and set_corruption_check_period() in kernel/check.c to call kstrtoul() instead of calling obsoleted simple_strtoul().

2011-07-14memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range() with generic onesTejun Heo
Other than sanity check and debug message, the x86 specific version of memblock reserve/free functions are simple wrappers around the generic versions - memblock_reserve/free(). This patch adds debug messages with caller identification to the generic versions and replaces x86 specific ones and kills them. arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and arch/x86/mm/memblock.c are empty after this change and removed.

2011-07-14x86: Replace memblock_x86_find_in_range_size() with for_each_free_mem_range()Tejun Heo
setup_bios_corruption_check() and memtest do_one_pass() open code memblock free area iteration using memblock_x86_find_in_range_size(). Convert them to use for_each_free_mem_range() instead. This leaves memblock_x86_find_in_range_size() and memblock_x86_check_reserved_size() unused. Kill them.

2011-07-13memblock: Kill MEMBLOCK_ERRORTejun Heo
25818f0f28 (memblock: Make MEMBLOCK_ERROR be 0) thankfully made MEMBLOCK_ERROR 0 and there already are codes which expect error return to be 0. There's no point in keeping MEMBLOCK_ERROR around. End its misery.

2011-03-09x86: Don't check for BIOS corruption in first 64K when there's no need toNaga Chumbalkar
Due to commit 781c5a67f152c17c3e4a9ed9647f8c0be6ea5ae9 it is likely that the number of areas to scan for BIOS corruption is 0 -- especially when the first 64K is already reserved (X86_RESERVE_LOW is 64K by default). If that's the case then don't set up the scan.

2010-08-27x86: Use memblock to replace early_resYinghai Lu
1. replace find_e820_area with memblock_find_in_range 2. replace reserve_early with memblock_x86_reserve_range 3. replace free_early with memblock_x86_free_range. 4. NO_BOOTMEM will switch to use memblock too. 5. use _e820, _early wrap in the patch, in following patch, will replace them all 6. because memblock_x86_free_range support partial free, we can remove some special care 7. Need to make sure that memblock_find_in_range() is called after memblock_x86_fill() so adjust some calling later in setup.c::setup_arch() -- corruption_check and mptable_update -v2: Move reserve_brk() early Before fill_memblock_area, to avoid overlap between brk and memblock_find_in_range() that could happen We have more then 128 RAM entry in E820 tables, and memblock_x86_fill() could use memblock_find_in_range() to find a new place for memblock.memory.region array. and We don't need to use extend_brk() after fill_memblock_area() So move reserve_brk() early before fill_memblock_area(). -v3: Move find_smp_config early To make sure memblock_find_in_range not find wrong place, if BIOS doesn't put mptable in right place. -v4: Treat RESERVED_KERN as RAM in memblock.memory. and they are already in memblock.reserved already.. use __NOT_KEEP_MEMBLOCK to make sure memblock related code could be freed later. -v5: Generic version __memblock_find_in_range() is going from high to low, and for 32bit active_region for 32bit does include high pages need to replace the limit with memblock.default_alloc_limit, aka get_max_mapped() -v6: Use current_limit instead -v7: check with MEMBLOCK_ERROR instead of -1ULL or -1L -v8: Set memblock_can_resize early to handle EFI with more RAM entries -v9: update after kmemleak changes in mainline Suggested-by: David S.

2009-03-15x86: fix 64k corruption-checkYinghai Lu

2009-03-13x86: fix code paths used by update_mptableJan Beulich
Impact: fix crashes under Xen due to unrobust e820 code find_e820_area_size() must return a properly distinguishable and out-of-bounds value when it fails, and -1UL does not meet that criteria on i386/PAE. Additionally, callers of the function must check against that value. early_reserve_e820() should be prepared for the region found to be outside of the addressable range on 32-bits. e820_update_range_map() should not blindly update e820, but should do all it work on the map it got a pointer passed for (which in 50% of the cases is &e820_saved). It must also not call e820_add_region(), as that again acts on e820 unconditionally. The issues were found when trying to make this option work in our Xen kernel (i.e. where some of the silent assumptions made in the code would not hold).

2008-10-27x86: corruption check: run the corruption checks from a work queueArjan van de Ven
Impact: change the implementation of the debug feature the periodic corruption checks are better off run from a work queue; there's nothing time critical about them and this way the amount of interrupt-context work is reduced.

2008-10-27x86: corruption check: move the corruption checks into their own fileArjan van de Ven
Impact: cleanup The corruption check code is rather sizable and it's likely to grow over time when we add checks for more types of corruptions (there's a few candidates in kerneloops.org that I want to add checks for)... so lets move it to its own file Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
