      x86: Add cpu_detect_cache_sizes to init_intel() add Quark legacy_cache() · aece118e
      由 Bryan O'Donoghue 提交于 
      Intel processors which don't report cache information via cpuid(2)
or cpuid(4) need quirk code in the legacy_cache_size callback to
report this data. For Intel that callback is is intel_size_cache().

This patch enables calling of cpu_detect_cache_sizes() inside of
init_intel() and hence the calling of the legacy_cache callback in
intel_size_cache(). Adding this call will ensure that PIII Tualatin
currently in intel_size_cache() and Quark SoC X1000 being added to
intel_size_cache() in this patch will report their respective cache
sizes.

This model of calling cpu_detect_cache_sizes() is consistent with
AMD/Via/Cirix/Transmeta and Centaur.

Also added is a string to idenitfy the Quark as Quark SoC X1000
giving better and more descriptive output via /proc/cpuinfo

Adding cpu_detect_cache_sizes to init_intel() will enable calling
of intel_size_cache() on Intel processors which currently no code
can reach. Therefore this patch will also re-enable reporting
of PIII Tualatin cache size information as well as add
Quark SoC X1000 support.

      x86_64, entry: Filter RFLAGS.NT on entry from userspace · 8c7aa698
      由 Andy Lutomirski 提交于 
      The NT flag doesn't do anything in long mode other than causing IRET
to #GP.  Oddly, CPL3 code can still set NT using popf.

Entry via hardware or software interrupt clears NT automatically, so
the only relevant entries are fast syscalls.

If user code causes kernel code to run with NT set, then there's at
least some (small) chance that it could cause trouble.  For example,
user code could cause a call to EFI code with NT set, and who knows
what would happen?  Apparently some games on Wine sometimes do
this (!), and, if an IRET return happens, they will segfault.  That
segfault cannot be handled, because signal delivery fails, too.

This patch programs the CPU to clear NT on entry via SYSCALL (both
32-bit and 64-bit, by my reading of the AMD APM), and it clears NT
in software on entry via SYSENTER.

To save a few cycles, this borrows a trick from Jan Beulich in Xen:
it checks whether NT is set before trying to clear it.  As a result,
it seems to have very little effect on SYSENTER performance on my
machine.

There's another minor bug fix in here: it looks like the CFI
annotations were wrong if CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL=n.

Testers beware: on Xen, SYSENTER with NT set turns into a GPF.

I haven't touched anything on 32-bit kernels.

The syscall mask change comes from a variant of this patch by Anish
Bhatt.

Note to stable maintainers: there is no known security issue here.
A misguided program can set NT and cause the kernel to try and fail
to deliver SIGSEGV, crashing the program.  This patch fixes Far Cry
on Wine: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33275

      x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · 89cbc767
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.

Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.

__get_cpu_var() is defined as :

#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))

__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.

this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.

This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.

Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()

1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);

2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);

3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)

   Converts to

	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);

4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);

   Converts to

	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));

5. Assignment to a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_write(y, x);

6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	__get_cpu_var(y)++

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_inc(y)

      x86: Support compiling out human-friendly processor feature names · 9def39be
      由 Josh Triplett 提交于 
      The table mapping CPUID bits to human-readable strings takes up a
non-trivial amount of space, and only exists to support /proc/cpuinfo
and a couple of kernel messages.  Since programs depend on the format of
/proc/cpuinfo, force inclusion of the table when building with /proc
support; otherwise, support omitting that table to save space, in which
case the kernel messages will print features numerically instead.

In addition to saving 1408 bytes out of vmlinux, this also saves 1373
bytes out of the uncompressed setup code, which contributes directly to
the size of bzImage.
