9d99aaa31f [PATCH] x86_64: Support memory hotadd without sparsemem
Memory hotadd doesn't need SPARSEMEM, but can be handled by just preallocating
mem_maps. This only needs some untangling of ifdefs to enable the necessary
code even without SPARSEMEM.

Originally from Keith Mannthey, hacked by AK.

9b41046cd0 [PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[]
The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).

And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().

	start_kernel()
		-> parse_args()
			-> unknown_bootoption()
				-> obsolete_checksetup()

If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
handled.

If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
->setup_func().  If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
a parameter is seted to argv_init[].

Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.

This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

b2c99e3c70 [PATCH] EFI: keep physical table addresses in efi structure
Almost all users of the table addresses from the EFI system table want
physical addresses.  So rather than doing the pa->va->pa conversion, just keep
physical addresses in struct efi.

This fixes a DMI bug: the efi structure contained the physical SMBIOS address
on x86 but the virtual address on ia64, so dmi_scan_machine() used ioremap()
on a virtual address on ia64.

This is essentially the same as an earlier patch by Matt Tolentino:
	http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112130292316281&w=2
except that this changes all table addresses, not just ACPI addresses.

Matt's original patch was backed out because it caused MCAs on HP sx1000
systems.  That problem is resolved by the ioremap() attribute checking added
for ia64.

- Move the core parser into dmi_scan.c.  It can be useful for other
   subsystems too.
 - Differentiate between field doesn't exist and field is 0 or
   unparseable.  The first case is likely an old BIOS with broken ACPI,
   the later is likely a slightly buggy BIOS where someone forget to
   edit the date.  Don't blacklist in the later case.

2eb1bdbad8 [PATCH] x86_64: Disable ACPI blacklist by year for now on x86-64
ACPI is initialized very early on x86-64, before the DMI code is
initialized.  This means it would often discover a 0 year and then turn
off ACPI because it thought the BIOS was too old.  Some systems don't
boot without ACPI so this was a problem.

I have a full fix by adding new very early DMI detection, but it needs
more testing before it can be merged.  For 2.6.16 let's just turn the
check off.  It never made much sense anyways because there are no x86-64
systems older than 2002 or so and they generally all have working ACPI.

who forgot to set it make it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. x86-64 had
this change before and it's a good thing.

35b73ceb9a [PATCH] ACPI: fix vendor resource length computation
acpi_rs_get_list_length() needs to account for all the vendor-defined data
bytes.  Failing to include these causes buffers to be sized too small,
which causes slab corruption when we later convert AML to resources and run
off the end of the buffer.

This causes slab corruption on machines that use ACPI vendor-defined
resources.  All HP ia64 machines do, and I'm told that some NEC machines
may as well.

b8e4d89357 [ACPI] ACPICA 20060127
Implemented support in the Resource Manager to allow
unresolved namestring references within resource package
objects for the _PRT method. This support is in addition
to the previously implemented unresolved reference
support within the AML parser. If the interpreter slack
mode is enabled (true on Linux unless acpi=strict),
these unresolved references will be passed through
to the caller as a NULL package entry.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5741

Implemented and deployed new macros and functions for
error and warning messages across the subsystem. These
macros are simpler and generate less code than their
predecessors. The new macros ACPI_ERROR, ACPI_EXCEPTION,
ACPI_WARNING, and ACPI_INFO replace the ACPI_REPORT_*
macros.

Implemented the acpi_cpu_flags type to simplify host OS
integration of the Acquire/Release Lock OSL interfaces.
Suggested by Steven Rostedt and Andrew Morton.

Fixed a problem where Alias ASL operators are sometimes
not correctly resolved. causing AE_AML_INTERNAL
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5189
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5674

Fixed several problems with the implementation of the
ConcatenateResTemplate ASL operator. As per the ACPI
specification, zero length buffers are now treated as a
single EndTag. One-length buffers always cause a fatal
exception. Non-zero length buffers that do not end with
a full 2-byte EndTag cause a fatal exception.

Fixed a possible structure overwrite in the
AcpiGetObjectInfo external interface. (With assistance
from Thomas Renninger)

4a90c7e862 [ACPI] ACPICA 20060113
Added 2006 copyright.

At SuSE's suggestion, enabled all error messages
without enabling function tracing, ie with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=n

Replaced all instances of the ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT macro invoked at
the ACPI_DB_ERROR and ACPI_DB_WARN debug levels with
the ACPI_REPORT_ERROR and ACPI_REPORT_WARNING macros,
respectively. This preserves all error and warning messages
in the non-debug version of the ACPICA code (this has been
referred to as the "debug lite" option.) Over 200 cases
were converted to create a total of over 380 error/warning
messages across the ACPICA code. This increases the code
and data size of the default non-debug version by about 13K.
Added ACPI_NO_ERROR_MESSAGES flag to enable deleting all messages.
The size of the debug version remains about the same.

defba1d8f2 [ACPI] ACPICA 20051216
Implemented optional support to allow unresolved names
within ASL Package objects. A null object is inserted in
the package when a named reference cannot be located in
the current namespace. Enabled via the interpreter slack
flag which Linux has enabled by default (acpi=strict
to disable slack).  This should eliminate AE_NOT_FOUND
exceptions seen on machines that contain such code.

Implemented an optimization to the initialization
sequence that can improve boot time. During ACPI device
initialization, the _STA method is now run if and only
if the _INI method exists. The _STA method is used to
determine if the device is present; An _INI can only be
run if _STA returns present, but it is a waste of time to
run the _STA method if the _INI does not exist. (Prototype
and assistance from Dong Wei)

Implemented use of the C99 uintptr_t for the pointer
casting macros if it is available in the current
compiler. Otherwise, the default (void *) cast is used
as before.

Fixed some possible memory leaks found within the
execution path of the Break, Continue, If, and CreateField
operators. (Valery Podrezov)

Fixed a problem introduced in the 20051202 release where
an exception is generated during method execution if a
control method attempts to declare another method.
