From f80b0c904da93b9ad7db2fd9823dd701932df779 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vineet Gupta Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 12:25:44 +0530 Subject: Ensure that kernel_init_freeable() is not inlined into non __init code Commit d6b2123802d "make sure that we always have a return path from kernel_execve()" reshuffled kernel_init()/init_post() to ensure that kernel_execve() has a caller to return to. It removed __init annotation for kernel_init() and introduced/calls a new routine kernel_init_freeable(). Latter however is inlined by any reasonable compiler (ARC gcc 4.4 in this case), causing slight code bloat.

Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.
