- Enable usage of all 8 ARRs.
- Avoid multiplications by 3 everywhere and other
- code clean ups/speed ups.
- 19990213 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Set up other Cyrix processors identical to the boot cpu.
- Since Cyrix don't support Intel APIC, this is l'art pour l'art.
- Weigh ARRs by size:
- If size <= 32M is given, set up ARR# we were given.
- If size > 32M is given, set up ARR7 only if it is free,
- fail otherwise.
- 19990214 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Also check for size >= 256K if we are to set up ARR7,
- mtrr_add() returns the value it gets from set_mtrr()
- 19990218 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Remove Cyrix "coma bug" workaround from here.
- Moved to linux/arch/i386/kernel/setup.c and
- linux/include/asm-i386/bugs.h
- 19990228 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Added MTRRIOC_KILL_ENTRY ioctl(2)
- Trap for counter underflow in <mtrr_file_del>.
- Trap for 4 MiB aligned regions for PPro, stepping <= 7.

- Created <get_free_region> hook.
- 19990305 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Temporarily disable AMD support now MTRR capability flag is set.
- v1.32
- 19990308 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Adjust my changes (19990212-19990218) to Richard Gooch's
- latest changes. (19990228-19990305)
- v1.33
- 19990309 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Fixed typo in <printk> message.
- 19990310 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Support K6-II/III based on Alan Cox's <alan@redhat.com> patches.
- v1.34
- 19990511 Bart Hartgers <bart@etpmod.phys.tue.nl>
- Support Centaur C6 MCR's.
- 19990512 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Minor cleanups.
- v1.35
- 19990707 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Check whether ARR3 is protected in cyrix_get_free_region()
- and mtrr_del(). The code won't attempt to delete or change it
- from now on if the BIOS protected ARR3. It silently skips ARR3
- in cyrix_get_free_region() or returns with an error code from
- mtrr_del().
- 19990711 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Reset some bits in the CCRs in cyrix_arr_init() to disable SMM
- if ARR3 isn't protected. This is needed because if SMM is active
- and ARR3 isn't protected then deleting and setting ARR3 again
- may lock up the processor. With SMM entirely disabled, it does
- not happen.
- 19990812 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Rearrange switch() statements so the driver accomodates to
- the fact that the AMD Athlon handles its MTRRs the same way
- as Intel does.
- 19990814 Zoltán Böszörményi <zboszor@mail.externet.hu>
- Double check for Intel in mtrr_add()'s big switch() because
- that revision check is only valid for Intel CPUs.
- 19990819 Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>
- Tested Zoltan's changes on a pre production Athlon - 100%
- success.
- 19991008 Manfred Spraul <manfreds@colorfullife.com>
- replaced spin_lock_reschedule() with a normal semaphore.
- v1.36
- 20000221 Richard Gooch <rgooch@atnf.csiro.au>
- Compile fix if procfs and devfs not enabled.
- Formatting changes.

-
- v1.38
- 20010309 Dave Jones <davej@suse.de>
- Add support for Cyrix III.
-
- v1.39
- 20010312 Dave Jones <davej@suse.de>
- Ugh, I broke AMD support.
- Reworked fix by Troels Walsted Hansen <troels@thule.no>
-
- v1.40
- 20010327 Dave Jones <davej@suse.de>
- Adapted Cyrix III support to include VIA C3.
-
- v2.0
- 20020306 Patrick Mochel <mochel@osdl.org>
- Split mtrr.c -> mtrr/*.c
- Converted to Linux Kernel Coding Style
- Fixed several minor nits in form
- Moved some SMP-only functions out, so they can be used
- for power management in the future.
- TODO: Fix user interface cruft.
