kernel: move DRM_DEBUG_* symbols to generic config

2018-01-14T18:15:01+00:00

While working on a new target (meson), the kernel build failed due to
missing DRM_DEBUG_MM_SELFTEST symbol. This can potentially happen on all
targets that enable DRM drivers in the kernel config or via kmod
packages, so add it to the generic config and remove it from x86
subtarget configs, together with DRM_DEBUG_MM.

x86: Add support for kernel 4.14

2017-12-16T21:16:07+00:00

This adds basic support for kernel 4.14, this was tested in qemu only.
The subtarget configuration was refresh with kernel 4.14 and the
options needed to make it compile on kernel 4.9 were added manually.

x86: refresh configuration

2017-12-16T21:11:05+00:00

Just refresh the kernel configuration, some options are removed because
they are now in the generic kernel configuration.

x86: add on-chip thermal sensors and cpuid support

2017-12-16T13:41:37+00:00

Cover temperature sensors for all mainstream 64-bit processors, including
AMD 10h and 15h families, Intel iCore, Xeon, Atom, and Via Nano.  Also
add CPUID support for user-space applications to detect CPU type.

Include the on-chip sensors for 64-bit CPU's in the generic profile
in case someone builds a 32-bit kernel to run on a Xeon SoC, etc.

x86: Fix xen serial console by removing conflicting PATA driver

2017-07-16T09:31:52+00:00

The Xen serial console has been broken since the xen_domu subtarget
was merged in the generic x86 subtarget (commits 1d6879ee and 371b382a).

The reason for the broken serial console seems to be an IRQ conflict
between the serial console driver and the PATA_LEGACY driver:

[    1.330125] genirq: Flags mismatch irq 8. 00000000 (hvc_console) vs. 00000000 (platform[pata_legacy.4])
[    1.330134] hvc_open: request_irq failed with rc -16.
[    1.330148] Warning: unable to open an initial console.

Just drop the PATA_LEGACY driver from the x86/generic and x86_64
subtargets, since this driver is marked experimental and only supports
very old ISA devices anyway.  It is still included in the x86/legacy
subtarget where it rightfully belongs.

Fixes: FS#787

x86: Move USB support from subtargets to target config

2017-07-16T00:29:05+00:00

All x86 subtargets enable USB support, so it makes sense to enable it
in the target config instead, to avoid duplication.

Also refresh subtarget configs accordingly.

x86: Refresh subtargets kernel config

2017-07-16T00:29:04+00:00

This was done by simply running `make kernel_menuconfig CONFIG_TARGET=subtarget`
and then saving without changing any option.

Most of the removed options can be explained because they are already
present in the target config or in the generic 4.9 config:

- PAE-related options, enabled by default on x86 by 961c0eac
- LZO-related options, enabled by default since 4.9

As far as I understand the build system, this shouldn't have any
user-visible impact, because the build system already merges the
various kernel configs during build.

x86: lift kernel minimum CPU requirement to Pentium MMX

2017-05-05T07:53:44+00:00

Anything older than that isn't supported since commit f4f8f4a180366,
hence also switch to Pentium MMX when building the kernel.

x86: generic: use HIGHMEM64G instead of HIGHMEM4G

2017-05-05T07:51:17+00:00

commit 4b4f73937371 switched on HIGHMEM4G which implicitely disabled
PAE and hence also NX and other useful and security-relevant features.
Re-enable PAE by switching to HIGHMEM64G.
