      x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interrupts · 9bcbdd9c
      由 Arjan van de Ven 提交于 
      Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a
problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also
reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using
iwlagn.

It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get
checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic
timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other
wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible.

The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer
interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that:

 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less

 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because
    the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up.

I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the
original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported
success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec
range.

      x86, mce: use 64bit machine check code on 32bit · 4efc0670
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      The 64bit machine check code is in many ways much better than
the 32bit machine check code: it is more specification compliant,
is cleaner, only has a single code base versus one per CPU,
has better infrastructure for recovery, has a cleaner way to communicate
with user space etc. etc.

Use the 64bit code for 32bit too.

This is the second attempt to do this. There was one a couple of years
ago to unify this code for 32bit and 64bit.  Back then this ran into some
trouble with K7s and was reverted.

I believe this time the K7 problems (and some others) are addressed.
I went over the old handlers and was very careful to retain
all quirks.

But of course this needs a lot of testing on old systems. On newer
64bit capable systems I don't expect much problems because they have been
already tested with the 64bit kernel.

I made this a CONFIG for now that still allows to select the old
machine check code. This is mostly to make testing easier,
if someone runs into a problem we can ask them to try
with the CONFIG switched.

The new code is default y for more coverage.

Once there is confidence the 64bit code works well on older hardware
too the CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE and the associated code can be easily
removed.

This causes a behaviour change for 32bit installations. They now
have to install the mcelog package to be able to log
corrected machine checks.

The 64bit machine check code only handles CPUs which support the
standard Intel machine check architecture described in the IA32 SDM.
The 32bit code has special support for some older CPUs which
have non standard machine check architectures, in particular
WinChip C3 and Intel P5.  I made those a separate CONFIG option
and kept them for now. The WinChip variant could be probably
removed without too much pain, it doesn't really do anything
interesting. P5 is also disabled by default (like it
was before) because many motherboards have it miswired, but
according to Alan Cox a few embedded setups use that one.

Forward ported/heavily changed version of old patch, original patch
included review/fixes from Thomas Gleixner, Bert Wesarg.

      x86: apic - introduce dummy apic operations · 08306ce6
      由 Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于 
      Impact: refactor, speed up and robustize code

In case if apic was disabled by kernel option
or by hardware limits we can use dummy operations
in apic->write to simplify the ack_APIC_irq() code.

At the lame time the patch fixes the missed EOI in
do_IRQ function (which has place if kernel is compiled
as X86-32 and interrupt without handler happens where
apic was not asked to be disabled via kernel option).

Note that native_apic_write_dummy() consists of
WARN_ON_ONCE to catch any buggy writes on enabled
APICs. Could be removed after some time of testing.

 1) guard ack_bad_irq with printk_ratelimit since there is no

 2) use pr_emerg() helper

      performance counters: x86 support · 241771ef
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      Implement performance counters for x86 Intel CPUs.

It's simplified right now: the PERFMON CPU feature is assumed,
which is available in Core2 and later Intel CPUs.

The design is flexible to be extended to more CPU types as well.

      sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes · 0b8f1efa
      由 Yinghai Lu 提交于 
      Impact: new feature

Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.

To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.

When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).

This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.
