Trust the ACPI code to disable TSC instead when C3 is used. AMD Fam10h does not disable TSC in any C states so the check was incorrect there anyways after the change to handle this like Intel on AMD too. This allows to use the TSC when C3 is disabled in software (acpi.max_c_state=2), but the BIOS supports it anyways. Match i386 behaviour.

After a lot of discussions with AMD it turns out that TSC on Fam10h CPUs is synchronized when the CONSTANT_TSC cpuid bit is set. Or rather that if there are ever systems where that is not true it would be their BIOS' task to disable the bit. So finally use TSC gettimeofday on Fam10h by default. Or rather it is always used now on CPUs where the AMD specific CONSTANT_TSC bit is set. This gives a nice speed bost for gettimeofday() on these systems which tends to be by far the most common v/syscall. On a Fam10h system here TSC gtod uses about 20% of the CPU time of acpi_pm based gtod(). This was measured on 32bit, on 64bit it is even better because TSC gtod() can use a vsyscall and stay in ring 3, which acpi_pm doesn't. The Intel check simply checks for CONSTANT_TSC too without hardcoding Intel vendor. This is equivalent on 64bit because all 64bit capable Intel CPUs will have CONSTANT_TSC set. On Intel there is no CPU supplied CONSTANT_TSC bit currently, but we synthesize one based on hardcoded knowledge which steppings have p-state invariant TSC. So the new logic is now: On CPUs which have the AMD specific CONSTANT_TSC bit set or on Intel CPUs which are new enough to be known to have p-state invariant TSC always use TSC based gettimeofday() Cc: lenb@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

rdtsc_barrier() is a new barrier primitive that stops RDTSC speculation to avoid races with timer interrupts on other CPUs. It expands either to LFENCE (for Intel CPUs) or MFENCE (for AMD CPUs) which stops RDTSC on all currently known microarchitectures that implement SSE. On CPUs without SSE there is generally no RDTSC speculation.

According to Intel RDTSC can be always synchronized with LFENCE on all current CPUs. Implement the necessary CPUID bit for that.

When developing the Kprobes arch code for ARM, I ran across some code found in x86 and s390 Kprobes arch code which I didn't consider as good as it could be. Once I figured out what the code was doing, I changed the code for ARM Kprobes to work the way I felt was more appropriate. I've tested the code this way in ARM for about a year and would like to push the same change to the other affected architectures. The code in question is in kprobe_exceptions_notify() which does: ==== /* kprobe_running() needs smp_processor_id() */ preempt_disable(); if (kprobe_running() && kprobe_fault_handler(args->regs, args->trapnr)) ret = NOTIFY_STOP; preempt_enable(); ==== For the moment, ignore the code having the preempt_disable()/ preempt_enable() pair in it. The problem is that kprobe_running() needs to call smp_processor_id() which will assert if preemption is enabled. That sanity check by smp_processor_id() makes perfect sense since calling it with preemption enabled would return an unreliable result. But the function kprobe_exceptions_notify() can be called from a context where preemption could be enabled. If that happens, the assertion in smp_processor_id() happens and we're dead. So what the original author did (speculation on my part!) is put in the preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() pair to simply defeat the check. Once I figured out what was going on, I considered this an inappropriate approach. If kprobe_exceptions_notify() is called from a preemptible context, we can't be in a kprobe processing context at that time anyways since kprobes requires preemption to already be disabled, so just check for preemption enabled, and if so, blow out before ever calling kprobe_running(). I wrote the ARM kprobe code like this: ==== /* To be potentially processing a kprobe fault and to * trust the result from kprobe_running(), we have * be non-preemptible. */ if (!preemptible() && kprobe_running() && kprobe_fault_handler(args->regs, args->trapnr)) ret = NOTIFY_STOP; ==== The above code has been working fine for ARM Kprobes for a year. So I changed the x86 code (2.6.24-rc6) to be the same way and ran the Systemtap tests on that kernel. As on ARM, Systemtap on x86 comes up with the same test results either way, so it's a neutral external functional change (as expected). This issue has been discussed previously on linux-arm-kernel and the Systemtap mailing lists.

Unify the 32 and 64 bit specific Makefiles. The unification was simplest to do in one step although the readability of the patch suffers a bit from this. Noteworthy remarks on the unification: - The 64 bit cpu stuff should be moved to Makefile_32.cpu but I did not feel confident doing it due to subtle differences - The use of cflags-y were abandoned since we have seen one bug where we did wrong due to missing assignment to KBUILD_CFLAGS. The cc-option marcro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS. - The "No need to remake" line are deleted. It caused "make -B" to fail - For 64 bit the sub architecture stuff is not used. - The way head64.o is specified could be nicer - but it awaits the introduction of head32.o (which seems like a win to introduce for readability) - Patch is checkpatch clean Patch is tested by doing a defconfig build for i386 and x86_64 and in both cases monitoring that only relevant files were recompiled when applying the patch.
