This factors out the AMD native MMCONFIG discovery so we can use it outside amd_bus.c. amd_bus.c reads AMD MSRs so it can remove the MMCONFIG area from the PCI resources.

x86 has two kinds of PCI root bus scanning: (1) ACPI-based, using _CRS resources. This used pci_create_bus(), not pci_scan_bus(), because ACPI hotplug needed to split the pci_bus_add_devices() into a separate host bridge .start() method. This patch parses the _CRS resources earlier, so we can build a list of resources and pass it to pci_create_root_bus(). Note that as before, we parse the _CRS even if we aren't going to use it so we can print it for debugging purposes. (2) All other, which used either default resources (ioport_resource and iomem_resource) or information read from the hardware via amd_bus.c or similar. This used pci_scan_bus(). This patch converts x86_pci_root_bus_res_quirks() (previously called from pcibios_fixup_bus()) to x86_pci_root_bus_resources(), which builds a list of resources before we call pci_scan_root_bus(). We also use x86_pci_root_bus_resources() if we have ACPI but are ignoring _CRS.

The 'latency timer' of PCI devices, both Type 0 and Type 1, is setup in architecture-specific code [see: 'pcibios_set_master()']. There are two approaches being taken by all the architectures - check if the 'latency timer' is currently set between 16 and 255 and if not bring it within bounds, or, do nothing (and then there is the gratuitously different PA-RISC implementation). There is nothing architecture-specific about PCI's 'latency timer' so this patch pulls its setup functionality up into the PCI core by creating a generic 'pcibios_set_master()' function using the '__weak' attribute which can be used by all architectures as a default which, if necessary, can then be over-ridden by architecture-specific code. No functional change. Signed-off-by: NMyron Stowe <myron.stowe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NJesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>

If we encounter an efi_memory_desc_t without EFI_MEMORY_WB set in ->attribute we currently call set_memory_uc(), which in turn calls __pa() on a potentially ioremap'd address. On CONFIG_X86_32 this is invalid, resulting in the following oops on some machines: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f7f22280 IP: [<c10257b9>] reserve_ram_pages_type+0x89/0x210 [...] Call Trace: [<c104f8ca>] ? page_is_ram+0x1a/0x40 [<c1025aff>] reserve_memtype+0xdf/0x2f0 [<c1024dc9>] set_memory_uc+0x49/0xa0 [<c19334d0>] efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x1c2/0x3aa [<c19216d4>] start_kernel+0x291/0x2f2 [<c19211c7>] ? loglevel+0x1b/0x1b [<c19210bf>] i386_start_kernel+0xbf/0xc8 A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache(). Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in the following bug report, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516 Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows us to delete efi_ioremap() completely. Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Cc: H.

The idea behind commit d91ee586 ("cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle") was to have one call - disable_cpuidle() which would make pm_idle not be molested by other code. It disallows cpuidle_idle_call to be set to pm_idle (which is excellent). But in the select_idle_routine() and idle_setup(), the pm_idle can still be set to either: amd_e400_idle, mwait_idle or default_idle. This depends on some CPU flags (MWAIT) and in AMD case on the type of CPU. In case of mwait_idle we can hit some instances where the hypervisor (Amazon EC2 specifically) sets the MWAIT and we get: Brought up 2 CPUs invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64 #1 RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81015d1d>] [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4 ...

Meaning we end up going to hypervisor twice instead of just once. The previous behavior before v3.0 was that pm_idle was set to default_idle regardless of select_idle_routine/idle_setup. We want to do that, but only for one specific case: Xen. This patch does that.

Arjan would like to make struct file_operations const, but mce-inject directly writes to the mce_chrdev_ops to install its write handler. In an ideal world mce-inject would have its own character device, but we have a sizable legacy of test scripts that hardwire "/dev/mcelog", so it would be painful to switch to a separate device now. Instead, this patch switches to a stub function in the mce code, with a registration helper that mce-inject can call when it is loaded. Note that this would also allow for a sane process to allow mce-inject to be unloaded again (with an unregister function, and appropriate module_{get,put}() calls), but that is left for potential future patches.

由 Christopher Yeoh 提交于
The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a double copy of the message via shared memory. The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory directly from the source process into its own address space via a system call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current process's address space into a destination process's address space. - Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with using it: - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or written to would need to be contiguous. - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call, but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping (reason appears to have been lost) - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view, especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands of processes that all need to do this with each other - Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to consider adding in the future (see below) - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily) As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the copying. There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source and destination and store it in the destination. Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up when the mm changes. There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that: http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2 There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here: http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for 64-bit kernels.

On some architectures f_spare is has 5 ints and on some architectures f_spare only has 4 ints. Which makes the previous technique of clearing each int individually broken.

The microcode level is also outputed on fatal machine checks together with the other CPUID model information. I removed the respective code from the microcode update driver, it just reads the field from cpu_data. Also when the microcode is updated it fills in the new values too. I had to add a memory barrier to native_cpuid to prevent it being optimized away when the result is not used. This turns out to clean up further code which already got this information manually.

由 Don Zickus 提交于
Previous patches allow the NMI subsystem to process multipe NMI events in one NMI. As previously discussed this can cause issues when an event triggered another NMI but is processed in the current NMI. This causes the next NMI to go unprocessed and become an 'unknown' NMI. To handle this, we first have to flag whether or not the NMI handler handled more than one event or not. If it did, then there exists a chance that the next NMI might be already processed. Once the NMI is flagged as a candidate to be swallowed, we next look for a back-to-back NMI condition. This is determined by looking at the %rip from pt_regs. If it is the same as the previous NMI, it is assumed the cpu did not have a chance to jump back into a non-NMI context and execute code and instead handled another NMI. If both of those conditions are true then we will swallow any unknown NMI. There still exists a chance that we accidentally swallow a real unknown NMI, but for now things seem better. An optimization has also been added to the nmi notifier rountine. Because x86 can latch up to one NMI while currently processing an NMI, we don't have to worry about executing _all_ the handlers in a standalone NMI. The idea is if multiple NMIs come in, the second NMI will represent them. For those back-to-back NMI cases, we have the potentail to drop NMIs. Therefore only execute all the handlers in the second half of a detected back-to-back NMI.

由 Don Zickus 提交于
The NMI handlers used to rely on the notifier infrastructure. This worked great until we wanted to support handling multiple events better. One of the key ideas to the nmi handling is to process _all_ the handlers for each NMI. The reason behind this switch is because NMIs are edge triggered. If enough NMIs are triggered, then they could be lost because the cpu can only latch at most one NMI (besides the one currently being processed). In order to deal with this we have decided to process all the NMI handlers for each NMI. This allows the handlers to determine if they recieved an event or not (the ones that can not determine this will be left to fend for themselves on the unknown NMI list). As a result of this change it is now possible to have an extra NMI that was destined to be received for an already processed event. Because the event was processed in the previous NMI, this NMI gets dropped and becomes an 'unknown' NMI. This of course will cause printks that scare people. However, we prefer to have extra NMIs as opposed to losing NMIs and as such are have developed a basic mechanism to catch most of them. That will be a later patch. To accomplish this idea, I unhooked the nmi handlers from the notifier routines and created a new mechanism loosely based on doIRQ. The reason for this is the notifier routines have a couple of shortcomings. One we could't guarantee all future NMI handlers used NOTIFY_OK instead of NOTIFY_STOP. Second, we couldn't keep track of the number of events being handled in each routine (most only handle one, perf can handle more than one). Third, I wanted to eventually display which nmi handlers are registered in the system in /proc/interrupts to help see who is generating NMIs. The patch below just implements the new infrastructure but doesn't wire it up yet (that is the next patch). Its design is based on doIRQ structs and the atomic notifier routines. So the rcu stuff in the patch isn't entirely untested (as the notifier routines have soaked it) but it should be double checked in case I copied the code wrong.

Intel does not have guest/host-only bit in perf counters like AMD does. To support GO/HO bits KVM needs to switch EVENTSELn values (or PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL if available) at a guest entry. If a counter is configured to count only in a guest mode it stays disabled in a host, but VMX is configured to switch it to enabled value during guest entry. This patch adds GO/HO tracking to Intel perf code and provides interface for KVM to get a list of MSRs that need to be switched on a guest entry. Only cpus with architectural PMU (v1 or later) are supported with this patch. To my knowledge there is not p6 models with VMX but without architectural PMU and p4 with VMX are rare and the interface is general enough to support them if need arise.

If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the kernel mappings accordingly. Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping. However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won't start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage. In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated the pages lowmem. We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override. Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching. Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done. Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be set correctly.

The patch titled "x86: Don't use frame pointer to save old stack on irq entry" did not properly adjust CFI directives, so this patch is a follow-up to that one. With the old stack pointer no longer stored in a callee-saved register (plus some offset), we now have to use a CFA expression to describe the memory location where it is being found. This requires the use of .cfi_escape (allowing arbitrary byte streams to be emitted into .eh_frame), as there is no .cfi_def_cfa_expression (which also cannot reasonably be expected, as it would require a full expression parser).
