From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Andrew Cooper Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot: Remove stack segment parameter from smpboot. Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2013 19:00:51 +0100 Message-ID: <1376589651-19586-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org Errors-To: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org To: Xen-devel Cc: Andrew Cooper , Keir Fraser , Jan Beulich List-Id: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org The stack segment is legacy remnant of a 32bit hypervisor, and not used in 64bit. Furthermore, the unsigned short in the structure actually aliases whatever the linker decides to put next in the data section. Drop the extern struct definition and change it to a simple void pointer, which matches its definition in arch/x86/boot/x86_64.S Signed-off-by: Andrew Cooper CC: Keir Fraser CC: Jan Beulich --- xen/arch/x86/smpboot.c | 9 +++------ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/xen/arch/x86/smpboot.c b/xen/arch/x86/smpboot.c index 3df4e88..9f81c7b 100644 --- a/xen/arch/x86/smpboot.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/smpboot.c @@ -393,10 +393,7 @@ void start_secondary(void *unused) startup_cpu_idle_loop(); } -extern struct { - void * esp; - unsigned short ss; -} stack_start; +extern void *stack_start; static int wakeup_secondary_cpu(int phys_apicid, unsigned long start_eip) { @@ -555,7 +552,7 @@ static int do_boot_cpu(int apicid, int cpu) printk("Booting processor %d/%d eip %lx\n", cpu, apicid, start_eip); - stack_start.esp = stack_base[cpu]; + stack_start = stack_base[cpu]; /* This grunge runs the startup process for the targeted processor. */ @@ -734,7 +731,7 @@ void __init smp_prepare_cpus(unsigned int max_cpus) boot_cpu_physical_apicid = get_apic_id(); x86_cpu_to_apicid[0] = boot_cpu_physical_apicid; - stack_base[0] = stack_start.esp; + stack_base[0] = stack_start; if ( !zalloc_cpumask_var(&per_cpu(cpu_sibling_mask, 0)) || !zalloc_cpumask_var(&per_cpu(cpu_core_mask, 0)) ) -- 1.7.10.4
