Thomas Petazzoni 03ae5768b6 x86: use ELF section to list CPU vendor specific code
Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU
vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF
section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and
contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a
vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure.

This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu()
functions.

This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and
early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the
cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU
initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is
not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly.

This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for
further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU
support code.

Cyrill Gorcunov 3cdac41f20 x86: lds - Use PAGE_SIZE instead of numeric constant
It's much better to use PAGE_SIZE then magic 4096
(though it's almost synonym in most cases on x86 but
not for *all* cases ;)

Eric Dumazet 4c4915627f x86: make arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.S use a separate
While examining vmlinux namelist on i386 (nm -v vmlinux) I noticed :

c01021d0 t es7000_rename_gsi
c010221a T es7000_start_cpu
<Big Hole>
c0103000 T thread_saved_pc

and

c0113218 T acpi_restore_state_mem
c0113219 T acpi_save_state_mem
<Big Hole>
c0114000 t wakeup_code

This is because arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.S forces a .text alignment
of 4096 bytes. (I have no idea if it is really needed, since
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_64.S uses a 16 bytes alignment *only*)

So arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o also has this alignment

arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o:     file format elf32-i386

Sections:
Idx Name          Size      VMA       LMA       File off  Algn
  0 .text         00018c94  00000000  00000000  00001000  2**12
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, RELOC, READONLY, CODE

But as arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.o is not the first object linked
into arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o, linker had to build several holes to meet
alignement requirements, because of .o nestings in the kbuild process.

This can be solved by using a special section, .text.page_aligned, so that
no holes are needed.

# size vmlinux.before vmlinux.after
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
4619942  422838  458752 5501532  53f25c vmlinux.before
4610534  422838  458752 5492124  53cd9c vmlinux.after

This saves 9408 bytes

Sam Ravnborg 01ba2bdc6b all archs: consolidate init and exit sections in vmlinux.lds.h
This patch consolidate all definitions of .init.text, .init.data
and .exit.text, .exit.data section definitions in
the generic vmlinux.lds.h.

This is a preparational patch - alone it does not buy
us much good.
