Subject: [PATCH 08/35] x86, 64bit: Copy zero-page early
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2013 12:19:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1359058816-7615-9-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1359058816-7615-1-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org>

real mode data/boot_params aka zero-page could be above 4g.
We will have #PF handler to set page table for not accessible ram
early, but want to limit it before x86_64_start_reservations to limit
the code change to native path only.

Also we will need the ramdisk info in zero-page to access the microcode
blob in ramdisk in x86_64_start_kernel, so copy zero-page early makes
it accessing ramdisk info simple.
