x86: add LongModeAddressSize function to cpuid
LongModeAddressSize was used by kernel 2.6.28.4 for physical address validation, if not properly implemented, PCI resource allocation may failed because of ioremap failed: - linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:27-30 27 static inline int phys_addr_valid(unsigned long addr) 28 { 29 return addr < (1UL << boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits); 30 } - linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:475-482 475 #ifdef CONFIG_X86_64 476 if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x80000008) { 477 u32 eax = cpuid_eax(0x80000008); 478 479 c->x86_virt_bits = (eax >> 8) & 0xff; 480 c->x86_phys_bits = eax & 0xff; 481 } 482 #endif - linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:209-214 209 if (!phys_addr_valid(phys_addr)) { 210 printk(KERN_WARNING "ioremap: invalid physical address %llx\n", 211 (unsigned long long)phys_addr); 212 WARN_ON_ONCE(1); 213 return NULL; 214 } This patch return 0x0000ffff for LongModeAddressSize, which guarantee phys_addr_valid never failed.
