cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code. cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there, but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking. This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on all modern systems. Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

Change msr-reg.o to obj-y (it will be included in virtually every kernel since it is used by the initialization code for AMD processors) and add a separate C file to export its symbols to modules, so that msr.ko can use them; on uniprocessors we bypass the helper functions in msr.o and use the accessor functions directly via inlines.

native_{rdmsr,wrmsr}_safe_regs are two new interfaces which allow presetting of a subset of eight x86 GPRs before executing the rd/wrmsr instructions. This is needed at least on AMD K8 for accessing an erratum workaround MSR. Originally based on an idea by H. Peter Anvin.

atomic64_t primitives are used by a handful of drivers, so export the APIs consistently. These were inlined before. Also mark atomic64_32.o a core object, so that the symbols are available even if not linked to core kernel pieces.

Linus noted that the atomic64_t primitives are all inlines currently which is crazy because these functions have a large register footprint anyway. Move them to a separate file: arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c Also, while at it, rename all uses of 'unsigned long long' to the much shorter u64. This makes the appearance of the prototypes a lot nicer - and it also uncovered a few bugs where (yet unused) API variants had 'long' as their return type instead of u64.

Add a struct representing a 64bit MSR pair consisting of a low and high register part and convert msr_info to use it. Also, rename msr-on-cpu.c to msr.c.

This patch adds latency tracing for critical timings (how long interrupts are disabled for). "irqsoff" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers Note: tracing_max_latency also holds the max latency for irqsoff (in usecs). (default to large number so one must start latency tracing) tracing_thresh threshold (in usecs) to always print out if irqs off is detected to be longer than stated here. If irq_thresh is non-zero, then max_irq_latency is ignored.

The versions with inline assembly are in fact slower on the machines I tested them on (in userspace) (Athlon XP 2800+, p4-like Xeon 2.8GHz, AMD Opteron 270). The i386-version needed a fix similar to 06024f21 to avoid crashing the benchmark. Benchmark using: gcc -fomit-frame-pointer -Os. For each bitmap size 1...512, for each possible bitmap with one bit set, for each possible offset: find the position of the first bit starting at offset. If you follow ;). Times include setup of the bitmap and checking of the results. Athlon Xeon Opteron 32/64bit x86-specific: 0m3.692s 0m2.820s 0m3.196s / 0m2.480s generic: 0m2.622s 0m1.662s 0m2.100s / 0m1.572s If the bitmap size is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG, and no set (cleared) bit is found, find_next_bit (find_next_zero_bit) returns a value outside of the range [0, size]. The generic version always returns exactly size. The generic version also uses unsigned long everywhere, while the x86 versions use a mishmash of int, unsigned (int), long and unsigned long. Using the generic version does give a slightly bigger kernel, though. defconfig: text data bss dec hex filename x86-specific: 4738555 481232 626688 5846475 5935cb vmlinux (32 bit) generic: 4738621 481232 626688 5846541 59360d vmlinux (32 bit) x86-specific: 5392395 846568 724424 6963387 6a40bb vmlinux (64 bit) generic: 5392458 846568 724424 6963450 6a40fa vmlinux (64 bit) Signed-off-by: NAlexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The compiler generally generates reasonable inline code for the simple cases and for the rest it's better for code size for them to be out of line. Also there they can be potentially optimized more in the future. In fact they probably should be in a .S file because they're all pure assembly, but that's for another day. Also some code style cleanup on them while I was on it (this seems to be the last untouched really early Linux code) This saves ~12k text for a defconfig kernel with gcc 4.1.

There was OpenVZ specific bug rendering some cpufreq drivers unusable on SMP. In short, when cpufreq code thinks it confined itself to needed cpu by means of set_cpus_allowed() to execute rdmsr, some "virtual cpu" feature can migrate process to anywhere. This triggers bugons and does wrong things in general. This got fixed by introducing rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu executing rdmsr and wrmsr on given physical cpu by means of smp_call_function_single(). Dave Jones mentioned cpufreq might be not only user of rdmsr_on_cpu() and wrmsr_on_cpu(), so I'm putting them into arch/{i386,x86_64}/lib/ .

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!
