2008-07-12x86: fix ldt limit for 64 bitMichael Karcher
Fix size of LDT entries. On x86-64, ldt_desc is a double-sized descriptor. Signed-off-by: Michael Karcher <kernel@mkarcher.dialup.fu-berlin.de> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-07-08x86: move x86_64 gdt closer to i386Glauber Costa
i386 and x86_64 used two different schemes for maintaining the gdt. With this patch, x86_64 initial gdt table is defined in a .c file, same way as i386 is now. Also, we call it "gdt_page", and the descriptor, "early_gdt_descr". This way we achieve common naming, which can allow for more code integration.

2008-05-12x86: change FIRST_SYSTEM_VECTOR to a variableAlan Mayer
The SGI UV system needs several more system vectors than a vanilla x86_64 system. Rather than burden the other archs with extra system vectors that they don't use, change FIRST_SYSTEM_VECTOR to a variable, so that it can be dynamic.

2008-01-30x86: x86 TLS desc_struct cleanupRoland McGrath
This cleans up the TLS code to use struct desc_struct and to separate the encoding and installation magic from the interface wrappers. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: move desc_empty to where they belongGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch moves the (duplicated) desc_empty implementation to desc.h, where the descriptor things belong. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: avoid ifdefs in desc.h, getting rid of pack_ldt and pack_tssGlauber de Oliveira Costa
By Andi Kleen's suggestion, this patch removes pack_ldt() and pack_tss() wrappers in favour of a general wrapper. It saves us an ifdef and some lines of code, but more importantly, it's more elegant. No functional change is made, although the object code is expected to be different.

2008-01-30x86: unify set_tss_descGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch unifies the set_tss_desc between i386 and x86_64, which can now have a common implementation. After the old functions are removed from desc_{32,64}.h, nothing important is left, and the files can be removed.

2008-01-30x86: move _set_gate and its users to a common locationGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch moves _set_gate and its users to desc.h. We can now use common code for x86_64 and i386. [ mingo@elte.hu: set_system_gate() fixes for nasty crashes. ] Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: unify paravirt pieces of descriptor handlingGlauber de Oliveira Costa
With the types used to access descriptors in x86_64 and i386 now being the same, the code that effectively handles them can now be easily shared. This patch moves the paravirt part of desc_32.h into desc.h, and then, we get paravirt support in x86_64 for free.

2008-01-30x86: modify get_desc_baseGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch makes get_desc_base() receive a struct desc_struct, and then uses its internal fields to compute the base address. This is done at both i386 and x86_64, and then it is moved to common header Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: unify non-paravirt parts of desc.hGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch unifies the non-paravirt part of desc_{32,64}.h into desc.h. Most of it, is simply common code, that is moved to the shared header. The only exception is the set_ldt_desc in desc_64.h, which is changed - included its name - to accomodate for the way the ldt is set up in i386. Also, constant definitions used in desc_32.h are moved to desc_defs.h Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: introduce fill_ldtGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch introduces fill_ldt(), which populates a ldt descriptor from a user_desc in once, instead of relying in the LDT_entry_a and LDT_entry_b macros Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
