Andi Kleen	f8d311939f	[PATCH] x86_64: Support more than 8 cores on AMD systems ... Use physical mode instead of logical mode to address more CPUs. This is also used in the CPU hotplug case to avoid a race.

Jason Davis	90660ec3c3	[PATCH] x86_64 genapic update ... x86_64 genapic mechanism should be aware of machines that use physical APIC mode regardless of how many clusters/processors are detected. ACPI 3.0 FADT makes this determination very simple by providing a feature flag "force_apic_physical_destination_mode" to state whether the machine unconditionally uses physical APIC mode. Unisys' next generation x86_64 ES7000 will need to utilize this FADT feature flag in order to boot the x86_64 kernel in the correct APIC mode. This patch has been tested on both x86_64 commodity and ES7000 boxes.

Linus Torvalds	1da177e4c3	Linux-2.6.12-rc2 ... Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!	2005-04-16 15:20:36 -07:00
