      [PATCH] x86: Save the MTRRs of the BSP before booting an AP · 2b1f6278
      Bernhard Kaindl 提交于
      Applied fix by Andew Morton:
      http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/8/88 - Fix `make headers_check'.
      
      AMD and Intel x86 CPU manuals state that it is the responsibility of
      system software to initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across
      all processors in Multi-Processing Environments.
      
      Quote from page 188 of the AMD64 System Programming manual (Volume 2):
      
      7.6.5 MTRRs in Multi-Processing Environments
      
      "In multi-processing environments, the MTRRs located in all processors must
      characterize memory in the same way. Generally, this means that identical
      values are written to the MTRRs used by the processors." (short omission here)
      "Failure to do so may result in coherency violations or loss of atomicity.
      Processor implementations do not check the MTRR settings in other processors
      to ensure consistency. It is the responsibility of system software to
      initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across all processors."
      
      Current Linux MTRR code already implements the above in the case that the
      BIOS does not properly initialize MTRRs on the secondary processors,
      but the case where the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot processor are changed
      after Linux started to boot, before the initialsation of a secondary
      processor, is not handled yet.
      
      In this case, secondary processors are currently initialized by Linux
      with MTRRs which the boot processor had very early, when mtrr_bp_init()
      did run, but not with the MTRRs which the boot processor uses at the
      time when that secondary processors is actually booted,
      causing differing MTRR contents on the secondary processors.
      
      Such situation happens on Acer Ferrari 1000 and 5000 notebooks where the
      BIOS enables and sets AMD-specific IORR bits in the fixed-range MTRRs
      of the boot processor when it transitions the system into ACPI mode.
      The SMI handler of the BIOS does this in SMM, entered while Linux ACPI
      code runs acpi_enable().
      
      Other occasions where the SMI handler of the BIOS may change bits in
      the MTRRs could occur as well. To initialize newly booted secodary
      processors with the fixed-range MTRRs which the boot processor uses
      at that time, this patch saves the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot
      processor before new secondary processors are started. When the
      secondary processors run their Linux initialisation code, their
      fixed-range MTRRs will be updated with the saved fixed-range MTRRs.
      
      If CONFIG_MTRR is not set, we define mtrr_save_state
      as an empty statement because there is nothing to do.
      
      Possible TODOs:
      
      *) CPU-hotplugging outside of SMP suspend/resume is not yet tested
         with this patch.
      
      *) If, even in this case, an AP never runs i386/do_boot_cpu or x86_64/cpu_up,
         then the calls to mtrr_save_state() could be replaced by calls to
         mtrr_save_fixed_ranges(NULL) and  mtrr_save_state() would not be
         needed.
      
         That would need either verification of the CPU-hotplug code or
         at least a test on a >2 CPU machine.
      
      *) The MTRRs of other running processors are not yet checked at this
         time but it might be interesting to syncronize the MTTRs of all
         processors before booting. That would be an incremental patch,
         but of rather low priority since there is no machine known so
         far which would require this.

      [PATCH] i386: Convert PDA into the percpu section · 7c3576d2
      Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于
      Currently x86 (similar to x84-64) has a special per-cpu structure
      called "i386_pda" which can be easily and efficiently referenced via
      the %fs register.  An ELF section is more flexible than a structure,
      allowing any piece of code to use this area.  Indeed, such a section
      already exists: the per-cpu area.
      
      So this patch:
      (1) Removes the PDA and uses per-cpu variables for each current member.
      (2) Replaces the __KERNEL_PDA segment with __KERNEL_PERCPU.
      (3) Creates a per-cpu mirror of __per_cpu_offset called this_cpu_off, which
          can be used to calculate addresses for this CPU's variables.
      (4) Simplifies startup, because %fs doesn't need to be loaded with a
          special segment at early boot; it can be deferred until the first
          percpu area is allocated (or never for UP).
      
      The result is less code and one less x86-specific concept.

      [PATCH] i386: clean up identify_cpu · a6c4e076
      Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于
      identify_cpu() is used to identify both the boot CPU and secondary
      CPUs, but it performs some actions which only apply to the boot CPU.
      Those functions are therefore really __init functions, but because
      they're called by identify_cpu(), they must be marked __cpuinit.
      
      This patch splits identify_cpu() into identify_boot_cpu() and
      identify_secondary_cpu(), and calls the appropriate init functions
      from each.  Also, identify_boot_cpu() and all the functions it
      dominates are marked __init.

      [PATCH] i386: Use per-cpu GDT immediately upon boot · bf504672
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      Now we are no longer dynamically allocating the GDT, we don't need the
      "cpu_gdt_table" at all: we can switch straight from "boot_gdt_table" to the
      per-cpu GDT.  This means initializing the cpu_gdt array in C.
      
      The boot CPU uses the per-cpu var directly, then in smp_prepare_cpus() it
      switches to the per-cpu copy just allocated.  For secondary CPUs, the
      early_gdt_descr is set to point directly to their per-cpu copy.
      
      For UP the code is very simple: it keeps using the "per-cpu" GDT as per SMP,
      but we never have to move.

      Not respecting udelay causes problems with any virtual hardware that is passed
      through to real hardware.  This can be noticed by any device that interacts
      with the real world in real time - like AP startup, which takes real time.  Or
      keyboard LEDs, which should blink in real-time.  Or floppy drives, but only
      when passed through to a real floppy controller on OSes which can't
      sufficiently buffer the floppy commands to emulate a zero latency floppy.  Or
      IDE drives, when connecting to a physical CDROM.
      
      This was mostly a hack to get the kernel to boot faster, but it introduced a
      number of misvirtualization bugs, and Alan and Pavel argued pretty strongly
      against it.  We were the only client, and now want to clean up this cruft.

      to another within a critical section), then the TSC clock-source is turned

      The bug generally doesn't show up if the boot CPU id is zero, but
      everything falls apart for a non zero boot CPU id.  The basically kills
      voyager which is perfectly capable of doing non zero CPU id boots, so
      voyager currently won't boot without this.
      
      The fix is to be careful and actually do the GDT setups correctly.

      [PATCH] i386: cpu hotplug/smpboot misc MODPOST warning fixes · 4a5d107a
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      o Misc smpboot/cpu hotplug path cleanups. I did those to supress the
        warnings generated by MODPOST. These warnings are visible only
        if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
      
      o CONFIG_RELOCATABLE compiles the kernel with --emit-relocs option. This
        option retains relocation information in vmlinux file and MODPOST
        is quick to spit out "Section mismatch" warnings.
      
      o This patch fixes some of those warnings. Many of the functions in
        smpboot case are __devinit type and they in turn accesses text/data which
        if of type __cpuinit. Now if CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
        then we end up in cases where a function in .text segment is calling
        another function in .init.text segment and MODPOST emits warning.
      
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:identify_cpu from .text between 'smp_store_cpu_info' (at offset 0xc011020d) and 'do_boot_cpu'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:init_gdt from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01102ca) and '__cpu_up'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:print_cpu_info from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01105d0) and '__cpu_up'
      
      o It also fixes the issues where CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and start_secondary()
        is calling smp_callin() which in-turn calls synchronize_tsc_ap() which is
        of type __init. This should have meant broken CPU hotplug.

      [PATCH] i386: modpost smpboot code warning fix · 3771a450
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      o Currently synchronize_tsc_ap() is of type __init. It is called by
        smp_callin() which is of type __cpuinit. So synchronize_tsc_ap()
        should be of type __cpuinit.
      
      o Modpost generates warnings for i386 if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y and
        CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y
      
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'start_secondary' (at offset 0xc01164dc) and 'initialize_secondary'
      WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between 'start_secondary' (at offset 0xc01164e8) and 'initialize_secondary'
      
      o tsc is of type __initdata. It should be of type __cpuinitdata.

      [PATCH] convert i386 Summit subarch to use SRAT info for apicid_to_node calls · 3b08606d
      keith mannthey 提交于
      Convert the i386 summit subarch apicid_to_node to use node information
      provided by the SRAT.  It was discussed a little on LKML a few weeks ago
      and was seen as an acceptable fix.  The current way of obtaining the nodeid
      
       static inline int apicid_to_node(int logical_apicid)
       {
         return logical_apicid >> 5;
       }
      
      is just not correct for all summit systems/bios.  Assuming the apicid
      matches the Linux node number require a leap of faith that the bios mapped
      out the apicids a set way.  Modern summit HW (IBM x460) does not layout its
      bios in the manner for various reasons and is unable to boot i386 numa.
      
      The best way to get the correct apicid to node information is from the SRAT
      table during boot.  It lays out what apicid belongs to what node.  I use
      this information to create a table for use at run time.
