      x86: fix section mismatch warnings in kernel/setup_percpu.c · c7f8562a

      The function setup_cpu_local_masks() has been marked __init, in
      order to remove the following section mismatch messages:

      x86: put trigger in to detect mismatched apic versions · b2b815d8
      Mike Travis 提交于
      Impact: add debug warning
      
      Fire off one message if two apic's discovered with different
      apic versions. (this code is only called during CPU init)
      
      The goal of this is to pave the way of the removal of the apic_version[]
      array. We dont expect any apic version incompatibilities in the x86
      landscape of systems [if so we dont handle them very well and probably
      never will handle deep apic version assymetries well], but it's prudent
      to have a debug check for one kernel cycle nevertheless.

      x86: define ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS · 64dec40d
      Jeff Mahoney 提交于
      Commit da4276b8 changed a dependency
      for FRAME_POINTER from X86 to ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS, but didn't
      actually define it.
      
      This patch adds the definition for ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS. Without it,
      FRAME_POINTER can't be enabled on x86.

      x86: fix assumed to be contiguous leaf page tables for kmap_atomic region (take 2) · a3c6018e
      Jan Beulich 提交于
      Debugging and original patch from Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>
      
      The early fixmap pmd entry inserted at the very top of the KVA is causing the
      subsequent fixmap mapping code to not provide physically linear pte pages over
      the kmap atomic portion of the fixmap (which relies on said property to
      calculate pte addresses).
      
      This has caused weird boot failures in kmap_atomic much later in the boot
      process (initial userspace faults) on a 32-bit PAE system with a larger number
      of CPUs (smaller CPU counts tend not to run over into the next page so don't
      show up the problem).
      
      Solve this by attempting to clear out the page table, and copy any of its
      entries to the new one. Also, add a bug if a nonlinear condition is encountered
      and can't be resolved, which might save some hours of debugging if this fragile
      scheme ever breaks again...
      
      Once we have such logic, we can also use it to eliminate the early ioremap
      trickery around the page table setup for the fixmap area. This also fixes
      potential issues with FIX_* entries sharing the leaf page table with the early
      ioremap ones getting discarded by early_ioremap_clear() and not restored by
      early_ioremap_reset(). It at once eliminates the temporary (and configuration,
      namely NR_CPUS, dependent) unavailability of early fixed mappings during the
      time the fixmap area page tables get constructed.
      
      Finally, also replace the hard coded calculation of the initial table space
      needed for the fixmap area with a proper one, allowing kernels configured for
      large CPU counts to actually boot.

      x86, UV: cpu_relax in uv_wait_completion · 18c07cf5
      Cliff Wickman 提交于
      The function uv_wait_completion() spins on reads of a memory-mapped
      register, waiting for completion of BAU hardware replies.
      
      It should call "cpu_relax()" between those reads to improve performance
      on hyperthreaded configurations.

      x86, generic: mark complex bitops.h inlines as __always_inline · c8399943
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Impact: reduce kernel image size
      
      Hugh Dickins noticed that older gcc versions when the kernel
      is built for code size didn't inline some of the bitops.
      
      Mark all complex x86 bitops that have more than a single
      asm statement or two as always inline to avoid this problem.
      
      Probably should be done for other architectures too.
      
      Ingo then found a better fix that only requires
      a single line change, but it unfortunately only
      works on gcc 4.3.
      
      On older gccs the original patch still makes a ~0.3% defconfig
      difference with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y.
      
      With gcc 4.1 and a defconfig like build:
      
          6116998 1138540  883788 8139326  7c323e vmlinux-oi-with-patch
          6137043 1138540  883788 8159371  7c808b vmlinux-optimize-inlining
      
      ~20k / 0.3% difference.
