The fpu code currently uses current->thread_info->status & TS_XSAVE as a way to distinguish between XSAVE capable processors and older processors. The decision is not really task specific; instead we use the task status to avoid a global memory reference - the value should be the same across all threads. Eliminate this tie-in into the task structure by using an alternative instruction keyed off the XSAVE cpu feature; this results in shorter and faster code, without introducing a global memory reference.

The cache flush denied error is an erratum on some AMD 486 clones. If an invd instruction is executed in userspace, the processor calls exception 19 (13 hex) instead of #GP (13 decimal). On cpus where XMM is not supported, redirect exception 19 to do_general_protection(). Also, remove die_if_kernel(), since this was the last user.

This is a standalone version of VMware Balloon driver. Ballooning is a technique that allows hypervisor dynamically limit the amount of memory available to the guest (with guest cooperation). In the overcommit scenario, when hypervisor set detects that it needs to shuffle some memory, it instructs the driver to allocate certain number of pages, and the underlying memory gets returned to the hypervisor. Later hypervisor may return memory to the guest by reattaching memory to the pageframes and instructing the driver to "deflate" balloon. We are submitting a standalone driver because KVM maintainer (Avi Kivity) expressed opinion (rightly) that our transport does not fit well into virtqueue paradigm and thus it does not make much sense to integrate with virtio. There were also some concerns whether current ballooning technique is the right thing. If there appears a better framework to achieve this we are prepared to evaluate and switch to using it, but in the meantime we'd like to get this driver upstream. We want to get the driver accepted in distributions so that users do not have to deal with an out-of-tree module and many distributions have "upstream first" requirement. The driver has been shipping for a number of years and users running on VMware platform will have it installed as part of VMware Tools even if it will not come from a distribution, thus there should not be additional risk in pulling the driver into mainline. The driver will only activate if host is VMware so everyone else should not be affected at all.

Atom erratum AAE44/AAF40/AAG38/AAH41: "If software clears the PS (page size) bit in a present PDE (page directory entry), that will cause linear addresses mapped through this PDE to use 4-KByte pages instead of using a large page after old TLB entries are invalidated. Due to this erratum, if a code fetch uses this PDE before the TLB entry for the large page is invalidated then it may fetch from a different physical address than specified by either the old large page translation or the new 4-KByte page translation. This erratum may also cause speculative code fetches from incorrect addresses." [http://download.intel.com/design/processor/specupdt/319536.pdf] Where as commit 211b3d03 seems to workaround errata AAH41 (mixed 4K TLBs) it reduces the window of opportunity for the bug to occur and does not totally remove it. This patch disables mixed 4K/4MB page tables totally avoiding the page splitting and not tripping this processor issue. This is based on an original patch by Colin King.

When we do a thread switch, we clear the outgoing FS/GS base if the corresponding selector is nonzero. This is taken by __switch_to() as an entry invariant; it does not verify that it is true on entry. However, copy_thread() doesn't enforce this constraint, which can result in inconsistent results after fork(). Make copy_thread() match the behavior of __switch_to().

When we fetch the hot regs and rewind to the nth caller, it might happen that we dereference a frame pointer outside the kernel stack boundaries, like in this example: perf_trace_sched_switch+0xd5/0x120 schedule+0x6b5/0x860 retint_careful+0xd/0x21 Since we directly dereference a userspace frame pointer here while rewinding behind retint_careful, this may end up in a crash. Fix this by simply using probe_kernel_address() when we rewind the frame pointer. This issue will have a much more proper fix in the next version of the perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() API that will only need to rewind to the first caller.

Hit another kdump problem as reported by Neil Horman. When initializaing the IOMMU, we attach devices to their domains before the IOMMU is fully (re)initialized. Attaching a device will issue some important invalidations. In the context of the newly kexec'd kdump kernel, the IOMMU may have stale cached data from the original kernel. Because we do the attach too early, the invalidation commands are placed in the new command buffer before the IOMMU is updated w/ that buffer. This leaves the stale entries in the kdump context and can renders device unusable. Simply enable the IOMMU before we do the attach.

Jan Grossmann reported kernel boot panic while booting SMP kernel on his system with a single core cpu. SMP kernels call enable_IR_x2apic() from native_smp_prepare_cpus() and on platforms where the kernel doesn't find SMP configuration we ended up again calling enable_IR_x2apic() from the APIC_init_uniprocessor() call in the smp_sanity_check(). Thus leading to kernel panic. Don't call enable_IR_x2apic() and default_setup_apic_routing() from APIC_init_uniprocessor() in CONFIG_SMP case. NOTE: this kind of non-idempotent and assymetric initialization sequence is rather fragile and unclean, we'll clean that up in v2.6.35. This is the minimal fix for v2.6.34.

When profiling a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel, callgraph tracing stopped after the first function, because it has seen a garbage memory address (tried to interpret the frame pointer, and return address as a 64-bit pointer). Fix this by using a struct stack_frame with 32-bit pointers when the TIF_IA32 flag is set. Note that TIF_IA32 flag must be used, and not is_compat_task(), because the latter is only set when the 32-bit process is executing a syscall, which may not always be the case (when tracing page fault events for example).

We think there exists a bug in the HPET code that emulates the RTC. In the normal case, when the RTC frequency is set, the rtc driver tells the hpet code about it here: int hpet_set_periodic_freq(unsigned long freq) { uint64_t clc; if (!is_hpet_enabled()) return 0; if (freq <= DEFAULT_RTC_INT_FREQ) hpet_pie_limit = DEFAULT_RTC_INT_FREQ / freq; else { clc = (uint64_t) hpet_clockevent.mult * NSEC_PER_SEC; do_div(clc, freq); clc >>= hpet_clockevent.shift; hpet_pie_delta = (unsigned long) clc; } return 1; } If freq is set to 64Hz (DEFAULT_RTC_INT_FREQ) or lower, then hpet_pie_limit (a static) is set to non-zero. Then, on every one-shot HPET interrupt, hpet_rtc_timer_reinit is called to compute the next timeout. Well, that function has this logic: if (!(hpet_rtc_flags & RTC_PIE) || hpet_pie_limit) delta = hpet_default_delta; else delta = hpet_pie_delta; Since hpet_pie_limit is not 0, hpet_default_delta is used. That corresponds to 64Hz. Now, if you set a different rtc frequency, you'll take the else path through hpet_set_periodic_freq, but unfortunately no one resets hpet_pie_limit back to 0. Boom....now you are stuck with 64Hz RTC interrupts forever. The patch below just resets the hpet_pie_limit value when requested freq is greater than DEFAULT_RTC_INT_FREQ, which we think fixes this problem.

This is a chipset erratum. Thomas: You mentioned we can retain this check only for known-buggy and hpet debug kind of options. But here is the simple workaround patch for this particular erratum. Some chipsets have a erratum due to which read immediately following a write of HPET comparator returns old comparator value instead of most recently written value. Erratum 15 in "Intel I/O Controller Hub 9 (ICH9) Family Specification Update" (http://www.intel.com/assets/pdf/specupdate/316973.pdf) Workaround for the errata is to read the comparator twice if the first one fails.

Scheduler's task migration events don't work because they always pass NULL regs perf_sw_event(). The event hence gets filtered in perf_swevent_add(). Scheduler's context switches events use task_pt_regs() to get the context when the event occured which is a wrong thing to do as this won't give us the place in the kernel where we went to sleep but the place where we left userspace. The result is even more wrong if we switch from a kernel thread. Use the hot regs snapshot for both events as they belong to the non-interrupt/exception based events family. Unlike page faults or so that provide the regs matching the exact origin of the event, we need to save the current context. This makes the task migration event working and fix the context switch callchains and origin ip.

Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

When CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, it could use memory more effiently, or in a more compact fashion. Example: Allocated new RAMDISK: 00ec2000 - 0248ce57 Move RAMDISK from 000000002ea04000 - 000000002ffcee56 to 00ec2000 - 0248ce56 The new RAMDISK's end is not page aligned. Last page could be shared with other users. When free_init_pages are called for initrd or .init, the page could be freed and we could corrupt other data. code segment in free_init_pages(): | for (; addr < end; addr += PAGE_SIZE) { | ClearPageReserved(virt_to_page(addr)); | init_page_count(virt_to_page(addr)); | memset((void *)(addr & ~(PAGE_SIZE-1)), | POISON_FREE_INITMEM, PAGE_SIZE); | free_page(addr); | totalram_pages++; | } last half page could be used as one whole free page. So page align the boundaries. -v2: make the original initramdisk to be aligned, according to Johannes, otherwise we have the chance to lose one page. we still need to keep initrd_end not aligned, otherwise it could confuse decompressor. -v3: change to WARN_ON instead, suggested by Johannes. -v4: use PAGE_ALIGN, suggested by Johannes. We may fix that macro name later to PAGE_ALIGN_UP, and PAGE_ALIGN_DOWN Add comments about assuming ramdisk start is aligned in relocate_initrd(), change to re get ramdisk_image instead of save it to make diff smaller. Add warning for wrong range, suggested by Johannes. -v6: remove one WARN() We need to align beginning in free_init_pages() do not copy more than ramdisk_size, noticed by Johannes Reported-by: NStanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Tested-by: NStanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NYinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Acked-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> LKML-Reference: <1269830604-26214-3-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Commit 3f6da390 (perf: Rework and fix the arch CPU-hotplug hooks) broke suspend to RAM on my HP nx6325 (and most likely on other AMD-based boxes too) by allowing amd_pmu_cpu_offline() to be executed for CPUs that are going offline as part of the suspend process. The problem is that cpuhw->amd_nb may be NULL already, so the function should make sure it's not NULL before accessing the object pointed to by it. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Currently c1e_idle returns true for all CPUs greater than or equal to family 0xf model 0x40. This covers too many CPUs. Meanwhile a respective erratum for the underlying problem was filed (#400). This patch adds the logic to check whether erratum #400 applies to a given CPU. Especially for CPUs where SMI/HW triggered C1e is not supported, c1e_idle() doesn't need to be used. We can check this by looking at the respective OSVW bit for erratum #400.

perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86 version, but not for the generic weak version. As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol exported in the same file they are defined. So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace events only.

Ingo Molnar reported that with the recent changes of not statically blocking IRQ0_VECTOR..IRQ15_VECTOR's on all the cpu's, broke an AMD platform (with Nvidia chipset) boot when "noapic" boot option is used. On this platform, legacy PIC interrupts are getting delivered to all the cpu's instead of just the boot cpu. Thus not initializing the vector to irq mapping for the legacy irq's resulted in not handling certain interrupts causing boot hang. Fix this by initializing the vector to irq mapping on all the logical cpu's, if the legacy IRQ is handled by the legacy PIC.

Now that the early _PDC evaluation path knows how to correctly evaluate _PDC on only physically present processors, there's no need for the processor driver to evaluate it later when it loads.

de957628 changed setting of the x86_init.iommu.iommu_init function ptr only when GART IOMMU is found. One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges is not initialized anymore if not explicitly called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in <arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>, for example, which uses the num_k8_northbridges thing through node_to_k8_nb_misc(). Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're running before that. What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of hardware dependency should be AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD && PCI. Make it so Number One!
