Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: insert_resorce for lapic addr after e820_reserve_resources
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 13:37:26 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200802221337.27170.yinghai.lu@sun.com> (raw)
when comparing the e820 direct from BIOS, and the one by kexec
BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
- BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 0000000000097400 (usable)
+ BIOS-e820: 0000000000000100 - 0000000000097400 (usable)
BIOS-e820: 0000000000097400 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved)
BIOS-e820: 00000000000e6000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved)
BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 00000000dffa0000 (usable)
- BIOS-e820: 00000000dffae000 - 00000000dffb0000 type 9
+ BIOS-e820: 00000000dffae000 - 00000000dffb0000 (reserved)
BIOS-e820: 00000000dffb0000 - 00000000dffbe000 (ACPI data)
BIOS-e820: 00000000dffbe000 - 00000000dfff0000 (ACPI NVS)
BIOS-e820: 00000000dfff0000 - 00000000e0000000 (reserved)
BIOS-e820: 00000000fec00000 - 00000000fec01000 (reserved)
- BIOS-e820: 00000000fee00000 - 00000000fee01000 (reserved) =======> that is local apic address... somewhere we lost it
BIOS-e820: 00000000ff700000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
BIOS-e820: 0000000100000000 - 0000004020000000 (usable)
found one entry about reserved is missing for the kernel by kexec.
it turns out init_apic_mappings is called before e820_reserve_resources
in setup_arch. but e820_reserve_resources is using request_resource.
it will not handle the conflicts.
there are three ways to fix it
1. change request_resource in e820_reserve_resources to to insert_resource
2. move init_apic_mappings after e820_reserve_resources
3. use late_initcall to insert lapic resource.
this patch is using method 3, that is less intrusive.
in later version could consider to use method 1.
before patch
fed20000-ffffffff : PCI Bus #00
fee00000-fee00fff : Local APIC
fefff000-feffffff : pnp 00:09
ff700000-ffffffff : reserved
with patch will get map in first kernel
fed20000-ffffffff : PCI Bus #00
fee00000-fee00fff : Local APIC
fee00000-fee00fff : reserved
fefff000-feffffff : pnp 00:09
ff700000-ffffffff : reserved
