Yinghai Lu 7b479becdb x86, e820: remove end_user_pfn
end_user_pfn used to modify the meaning of the e820 maps.

Now that all e820 operations are cleaned up, unified, tightened up,
the e820 map always get updated to reality, we don't need to keep
this secondary mechanism anymore.

If you hit this commit in bisection it means something slipped through.

Yinghai Lu 28bb223795 x86: move reserve_setup_data to setup.c
Ying Huang would like setup_data to be reserved, but not included in the
no save range.

Here we try to modify the e820 table to reserve that range early.
also add that in early_res in case bootloader messes up with the ramdisk.

other solution would be
1. add early_res_to_highmem...
2. early_res_to_e820...
but they could reserve another type memory wrongly, if early_res has some
resource reserved early, and not needed later, but it is not removed from
early_res in time. Like the RAMDISK (already handled).

Bernhard Walle 611dfd7819 x86: limit E820 map when a user-defined memory map is specified
This patch brings back limiting of the E820 map when a user-defined
E820 map is specified. While the behaviour of i386 (32 bit) was to limit
the E820 map (and /proc/iomem), the behaviour of x86-64 (64 bit) was not to
limit.

That patch limits the E820 map again for both x86 architectures.

Code was tested for compilation and booting on a 32 bit and 64 bit system.

Paul Jackson 5dab8ec139 mm, generic, x86 boot: more tweaks to hex prints of some pfn addresses
Fix some problems with (and applies on top of) a previous patch:
  x86 boot: show pfn addresses in hex not decimal in some kernel info printks

Primarily change "0x%8lx" format, which displays with a right aligned
space filled hex number (spaces between the "0x" prefix and the number),
into "%0#10lx" format, which zero fills instead of space fills, and
which uses the printf flag '#' to request the "0x" prefix instead of
hard coding it.

Also replace some other "0x%lx" formats with "%#lx", making use of the
'#' printf flag again.

Paul Jackson c4ba1320b7 x86 boot: allow overlapping early reserve memory ranges
Add support for overlapping early memory reservations.

In general, they still can't overlap, and will panic
with "Overlapping early reservations" if they do overlap.

But if a memory range is reserved with the new call:
    reserve_early_overlap_ok()
rather than with the usual call:
    reserve_early()
then subsequent early reservations are allowed to overlap.

This new reserve_early_overlap_ok() call is only used in one
place so far, which is the "BIOS reserved" reservation for the
the EBDA region, which out of Paranoia reserves more than what
the BIOS might have specified, and which thus might overlap with
another legitimate early memory reservation (such as, perhaps,
the EFI memmap.)

Huang, Ying 8c5beb50d3 x86 boot: pass E820 memory map entries more than 128 via linked list of setup data
Because of the size limits of struct boot_params (zero page), the
maximum number of E820 memory map entries can be passed to kernel is
128. As pointed by Paul Jackson, there is some machine produced by SGI
with so many nodes that the number of E820 memory map entries is more
than 128. To enabling Linux kernel on these system, a new setup data
type named SETUP_E820_EXT is defined to pass additional memory map
entries to Linux kernel.

This patch is based on x86/auto-latest branch of git-x86 tree and has
been tested on x86_64 and i386 platform.

Paul Jackson 5b7eb2e9ef x86 boot: longer comment explaining sanitize_e820_map routine
Elaborate on the comment for sanitize_e820_map(), epxlaining more what
it does, what it inputs, and what it returns.  Rearrange the placement of
this comment to fit kernel conventions, before the routine's code rather
than buried inside it.

Paul Jackson 6e9bcc796b x86 boot: change sanitize_e820_map parameter from byte to int to allow bigger memory maps
The map size counter passed into, and back out of, sanitize_e820_map(),
was an eight bit type (char or u8), as derived from its origins in
legacy BIOS E820 structures.  This patch changes that type to an 'int',
to allow this sanitize routine to also be used on larger maps (larger
than the 256 count that fits in a char).  The legacy BIOS E820 interface
of course does not change; that remains at 8 bits for this count, holding
up to E820MAX == 128 entries.  But the kernel internals can handle more
when those additional memory map entries are passed from the BIOS via
EFI interfaces.

Paul Jackson 028b785888 x86 boot: extend some internal memory map arrays to handle larger EFI input
Extend internal boot time memory tables to allow for up to
three entries per node, which may be larger than the 128 E820MAX
entries handled by the legacy BIOS E820 interface.  The EFI
interface, if present, is capable of passing memory map
entries for these larger node counts.

This patch requires an earlier patch that rewrote code depending
on these array sizes from using E820MAX explicitly to size loops,
to instead using ARRAY_SIZE() of the applicable array.

Another patch following this one will provide the code to pick
up additional memory entries passed via the EFI interface from
the BIOS and insert them in the following, now enlarged, arrays.

Paul Jackson c3965bd151 x86 boot: proper use of ARRAY_SIZE instead of repeated E820MAX constant
This patch is motivated by a subsequent patch which will allow for more
memory map entries on EFI supported systems than can be passed via the x86
legacy BIOS E820 interface.  The legacy interface is limited to E820MAX ==
128 memory entries, and that "E820MAX" manifest constant was used as the
size for several arrays and loops over those arrays.

The primary change in this patch is to change code loop sizes over those
arrays from using the constant E820MAX, to using the ARRAY_SIZE() macro
evaluated for the array being looped.  That way, a subsequent patch can
change the size of some of these arrays, without breaking this code.

This patch also adds a parameter to the sanitize_e820_map() routine,
which had an implicit size for the array passed it of E820MAX entries.
This new parameter explicitly passes the size of said array.  Once again,
this will allow a subsequent patch to change that array size for some
calls to sanitize_e820_map() without breaking the code.

As part of enhancing the sanitize_e820_map() interface this way, I further
combined the unnecessarily distinct x86_32 and x86_64 declarations for
this routine into a single, commonly used, declaration.

This patch in itself should make no difference to the resulting kernel
binary.
