Create a new directory hierarchy for the low level x86 entry code:
arch/x86/entry/*
This will host all the low level glue that is currently scattered
all across arch/x86/.
Start with entry_64.S and entry_32.S.

Currently new system call kexec_file_load() and all the associated code
compiles if CONFIG_KEXEC=y. But new syscall also compiles purgatory
code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large. This option seems
to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards.
Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break
existing users of old gcc. Those who wish to enable new functionality
will require new gcc. Having said that, I am trying to figure out how
can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while.
I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config
option. As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches
don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used. This
new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y. And all other arches had
to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC. Now with introduction of new config
option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches.
Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64. So whereever I had
CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that.
For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to
"depends on CRYPTO=y". This should be safer as "select" is not
recursive.

Create a stand alone relocatable object purgatory which runs between two
kernels. This name, concept and some code has been taken from
kexec-tools. Idea is that this code runs after a crash and it runs in
minimal environment. So keep it separate from rest of the kernel and in
long term we will have to practically do no maintenance of this code.
This code also has the logic to do verify sha256 hashes of various
segments which have been loaded into memory. So first we verify that the
kernel we are jumping to is fine and has not been corrupted and make
progress only if checsums are verified.
This code also takes care of copying some memory contents to backup region.

Create realmode.bin and realmode.relocs files. Piggy
pack them into relocatable object that will be included
into .init.data section of the main kernel image.
The first file includes binary image of the real-mode code.
The latter file includes all relocations. The layout of the
binary image is specified in realmode.lds.S. The makefile
generates pa_ prefixed symbols for each exported global.
These are used in 32-bit code and in realmode header to
define symbols that need to be relocated.

In order to speedup packet filtering, here is an implementation of a
JIT compiler for x86_64
It is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the admin.
echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
It uses module_alloc() and module_free() to get memory in the 2GB text
kernel range since we call helpers functions from the generated code.
EAX : BPF A accumulator
EBX : BPF X accumulator
RDI : pointer to skb (first argument given to JIT function)
RBP : frame pointer (even if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n)
r9d : skb->len - skb->data_len (headlen)
r8 : skb->data
To get a trace of generated code, use :
echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
Example of generated code :
# tcpdump -p -n -s 0 -i eth1 host 192.168.20.0/24
flen=18 proglen=147 pass=3 image=ffffffffa00b5000

x86 has finally arrived in the embedded nightmare and will rapidly
grow SoC platform support in various flavours. So we need a place for
the platform support files. That also allows us to clean up the
dumpground which arch/x86/kernel has become over time.

Introducing this Kbuild file allow us to:
make arch/x86/
And thus building all the core part of x86.
