      perf,x86: fix wrmsr_on_cpu() warning on suspend/resume · 2a6e06b2
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      Commit 1d9d8639 ("perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after
suspend/resume") fixed a crash when doing PEBS performance profiling
after resuming, but in using init_debug_store_on_cpu() to restore the
DS_AREA mtrr it also resulted in a new WARN_ON() triggering.

init_debug_store_on_cpu() uses "wrmsr_on_cpu()", which in turn uses CPU
cross-calls to do the MSR update.  Which is not really valid at the
early resume stage, and the warning is quite reasonable.  Now, it all
happens to _work_, for the simple reason that smp_call_function_single()
ends up just doing the call directly on the CPU when the CPU number
matches, but we really should just do the wrmsr() directly instead.

This duplicates the wrmsr() logic, but hopefully we can just remove the
wrmsr_on_cpu() version eventually.

      x86, ACPI, mm: Revert movablemem_map support · 20e6926d
      由 Yinghai Lu 提交于

Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
commit e8d19552 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
is ready")

It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things

1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
	nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
	memset(&numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
   can not be just removed.  Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
   and make fall back path working.

2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
   a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
   b.  for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
	     set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
     still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
     it should be moved before that....
   c.  it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
       early before override from INITRD is settled.

3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
   but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
   pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
   be routed via tip/x86/mm.

4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
  a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
  b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
  c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
	anymore.
  d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
  e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
     not good.

If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
node.

We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
be fixed.

So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:

 f7210e6c ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
    protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")

 01a178a9 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from
    SRAT")

 27168d38 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to
    the end of node")

 e8d19552 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is
    ready")

 fb06bc8e ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map")

 42f47e27 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority")

 6981ec31 ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep
    movable limit for nodes")

 34b71f1e ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")

 4d59a751 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")

Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0.  Also
need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

      hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators · b67bfe0d
      由 Sasha Levin 提交于 
      I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

      x86: Make sure we can boot in the case the BDA contains pure garbage · 7c100936
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      On non-BIOS platforms it is possible that the BIOS data area contains
garbage instead of being zeroed or something equivalent (firmware
people: we are talking of 1.5K here, so please do the sane thing.)

We need on the order of 20-30K of low memory in order to boot, which
may grow up to < 64K in the future.  We probably want to avoid the
lowest of the low memory.  At the same time, it seems extremely
unlikely that a legitimate EBDA would ever reach down to the 128K
(which would require it to be over half a megabyte in size.)  Thus,
pick 128K as the cutoff for "this is insane, ignore."  We may still
end up reserving a bunch of extra memory on the low megabyte, but that
is not really a major issue these days.  In the worst case we lose
512K of RAM.

This code really should be merged with trim_bios_range() in
arch/x86/kernel/setup.c, but that is a bigger patch for a later merge
window.

      acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is ready · e8d19552
      由 Tang Chen 提交于 
      On linux, the pages used by kernel could not be migrated.  As a result,
if a memory range is used by kernel, it cannot be hot-removed.  So if we
want to hot-remove memory, we should prevent kernel from using it.

The way now used to prevent this is specify a memory range by
movablemem_map boot option and set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.

But when the system is booting, memblock will allocate memory, and
reserve the memory for kernel.  And before we parse SRAT, and know the
node memory ranges, memblock is working.  And it may allocate memory in
ranges to be set as ZONE_MOVABLE.  This memory can be used by kernel,
and never be freed.

So, let's parse SRAT before memblock is called first.  And it is early
enough.

The first call of memblock_find_in_range_node() is in:

  setup_arch()
    |-->setup_real_mode()

so, this patch add a function early_parse_srat() to parse SRAT, and call
it before setup_real_mode() is called.

NOTE:

1) early_parse_srat() is called before numa_init(), and has initialized
   numa_meminfo.  So DO NOT clear numa_nodes_parsed in numa_init() and DO
   NOT zero numa_meminfo in numa_init(), otherwise we will lose memory
   numa info.

2) I don't know why using count of memory affinities parsed from SRAT
   as a return value in original acpi_numa_init().  So I add a static
   variable srat_mem_cnt to remember this count and use it as the return
   value of the new acpi_numa_init()

The reason is that the cpu's node is not NUMA_NO_NODE, we will call
alloc_pages_exact_node() to alloc memory on the node, but the node is
offlined.

If the node is onlined, we still need cpu's node.  For example: a task
on the cpu is sleeped when the cpu is hotremoved.  We will choose
another cpu to run this task when it is waked up.  If we know the cpu's
node, we will choose the cpu on the same node first.  So we should clear
cpu-to-node mapping when the node is offlined.

This patch only clears apicid-to-node mapping when the cpu is
hotremoved.

      x86/apic: Work around boot failure on HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server systems · cb214ede
      由 Stoney Wang 提交于 
      When a HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server boots a regular kernel,
there will be intermittent lost interrupts which could
result in a hang or (in extreme cases) data loss.

The reason is that this system only supports x2apic physical
mode, while the kernel boots with a logical-cluster default
setting.

This bug can be worked around by specifying the "x2apic_phys" or
"nox2apic" boot option, but we want to handle this system
without requiring manual workarounds.

The BIOS sets ACPI_FADT_APIC_PHYSICAL in FADT table.
As all apicids are smaller than 255, BIOS need to pass the
control to the OS with xapic mode, according to x2apic-spec,
chapter 2.9.

Current code handle x2apic when BIOS pass with xapic mode
enabled:

When user specifies x2apic_phys, or FADT indicates PHYSICAL:

1. During madt oem check, apic driver is set with xapic logical
   or xapic phys driver at first.

2. enable_IR_x2apic() will enable x2apic_mode.

3. if user specifies x2apic_phys on the boot line, x2apic_phys_probe()
   will install the correct x2apic phys driver and use x2apic phys mode.
   Otherwise it will skip the driver will let x2apic_cluster_probe to
   take over to install x2apic cluster driver (wrong one) even though FADT
   indicates PHYSICAL, because x2apic_phys_probe does not check
   FADT PHYSICAL.

Add checking x2apic_fadt_phys in x2apic_phys_probe() to fix the
problem.

      x86 idle: remove 32-bit-only "no-hlt" parameter, hlt_works_ok flag · 27be4570
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      Remove 32-bit x86 a cmdline param "no-hlt",
and the cpuinfo_x86.hlt_works_ok that it sets.

If a user wants to avoid HLT, then "idle=poll"
is much more useful, as it avoids invocation of HLT
in idle, while "no-hlt" failed to do so.

Indeed, hlt_works_ok was consulted in only 3 places.

First, in /proc/cpuinfo where "hlt_bug yes"
would be printed if and only if the user booted
the system with "no-hlt" -- as there was no other code
to set that flag.

Second, check_hlt() would not invoke halt() if "no-hlt"
were on the cmdline.

Third, it was consulted in stop_this_cpu(), which is invoked
by native_machine_halt()/reboot_interrupt()/smp_stop_nmi_callback() --
all cases where the machine is being shutdown/reset.
The flag was not consulted in the more frequently invoked
play_dead()/hlt_play_dead() used in processor offline and suspend.

Since Linux-3.0 there has been a run-time notice upon "no-hlt" invocations
indicating that it would be removed in 2012.

      x86 idle: remove mwait_idle() and "idle=mwait" cmdline param · 69fb3676
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      mwait_idle() is a C1-only idle loop intended to be more efficient
than HLT, starting on Pentium-4 HT-enabled processors.

But mwait_idle() has been replaced by the more general
mwait_idle_with_hints(), which handles both C1 and deeper C-states.
ACPI processor_idle and intel_idle use only mwait_idle_with_hints(),
and no longer use mwait_idle().

Here we simplify the x86 native idle code by removing mwait_idle(),
and the "idle=mwait" bootparam used to invoke it.

Since Linux 3.0 there has been a boot-time warning when "idle=mwait"
was invoked saying it would be removed in 2012.  This removal
was also noted in the (now removed:-) feature-removal-schedule.txt.

After this change, kernels configured with
(CONFIG_ACPI=n && CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=n) when run on hardware
that supports MWAIT will simply use HLT.  If MWAIT is desired
on those systems, cpuidle and the cpuidle drivers above
can be enabled.
