      x86: Remove "x86 CPU features in debugfs" (CONFIG_X86_CPU_DEBUG) · b1600918
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      CONFIG_X86_CPU_DEBUG, which provides some parsed versions of the x86
      CPU configuration via debugfs, has caused boot failures on real
      hardware.  The value of this feature has been marginal at best, as all
      this information is already available to userspace via generic
      interfaces.
      
      Causes crashes that have not been fixed + minimal utility -> remove.
      
      See the referenced LKML thread for more information.

      x86: xen: 64-bit kernel RPL should be 0 · e68266b7
      Ian Campbell 提交于
      Under Xen 64 bit guests actually run their kernel in ring 3,
      however the hypervisor takes care of squashing descriptor the
      RPLs transparently (in order to allow them to continue to
      differentiate between user and kernel space CS using the RPL).
      Therefore the Xen paravirt backend should use RPL==0 instead of
      1 (or 3). Using RPL==1 causes generic arch code to take
      incorrect code paths because it uses "testl $3, <CS>, je foo"
      type tests for a userspace CS and this considers 1==userspace.
      
      This issue was previously masked because get_kernel_rpl() was
      omitted when setting CS in kernel_thread(). This was fixed when
      kernel_thread() was unified with 32 bit in
      f443ff42.

      This fixes the regression introduced by the commit
      f405d2c0.
      
      The above commit fixes the following issue:
      
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2
      
      However, it doesn't work properly when you remove and insert the
      agp_amd64 module again.
      
      agp_amd64_init() and agp_amd64_cleanup should be called only
      when gart_iommu is not called earlier (that is, the GART IOMMU
      is not enabled). We need to use 'gart_iommu_aperture' to see if
      GART IOMMU is enabled or not.

      While processing kernel perf callchains, an bad entry can be

      In this case, we hang in an endless loop. This can happen in an

      x86, irq: Check move_in_progress before freeing the vector mapping · 7f41c2e1
      Suresh Siddha 提交于
      With the recent irq migration fixes (post 2.6.32), Gary Hade has noticed
      "No IRQ handler for vector" messages during the 2.6.33-rc1 kernel boot on IBM
      AMD platforms and root caused the issue to this commit:
      
      > commit 23359a88
      > Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>
      > Date:   Mon Oct 26 14:24:33 2009 -0800
      >
      >    x86: Remove move_cleanup_count from irq_cfg
      
      As part of this patch, we have removed the move_cleanup_count check
      in smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt(). With this change, we can run into a
      situation where an irq cleanup interrupt on a cpu can cleanup the vector
      mappings associated with multiple irqs, of which one of the irq's migration
      might be still in progress. As such when that irq hits the old cpu, we get
      the "No IRQ handler" messages.
      
      Fix this by checking for the irq_cfg's move_in_progress and if the move
      is still in progress delay the vector cleanup to another irq cleanup
      interrupt request (which will happen when the irq starts arriving at the
      new cpu destination).

      x86, compress: Force i386 instructions for the decompressor · 17a2a9b5
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      Recently, some distros have started shipping versions of gcc which
      default to -march=i686.  This breaks building kernels for pre-i686
      machines, even if they have been selected in Kconfig, due to the
      generation of CMOV instructions.
      
      There isn't enough benefit to try to preserve the generation of these
      instructions even when selected, so simply force -march=i386 for the
      decompressor when building a 32-bit kernel.

      Revert "x86, ucode-amd: Ensure ucode update on suspend/resume after CPU off/online cycle" · 2f99f5c8
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 9f15226e.  It's just
      wrong, and broke resume for Rafael even on a non-AMD CPU.
      
      As Rafael says:
       "... it causes microcode_init_cpu() to be called during resume even for
        CPUs for which there's no microcode to apply.  That, in turn, results
        in executing request_firmware() (on Intel CPUs at least) which doesn't
        work at this stage of resume (we have device interrupts disabled, I/O
        devices are still suspended and so on).
      
        If I'm not mistaken, the "if (uci->valid)" logic means "if that CPU is
        known to us" , so before commit 9f15226e microcode_resume_cpu() was
        called for all CPUs already in the system during suspend, which was
        the right thing to do.  The commit changed it so that the CPUs without
        microcode to apply are now treated as "unknown", which is not quite
        right.
      
        The problem this commit attempted to solve has to be handled
        differently."

      arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c: avoid cross-CPU interrupts by using smp_call_function_any()
      
      Presently acpi-cpufreq will perform the MSR read on the first CPU in the

      Because we have to perform a cross-CPU call, but we could have run the
      rdmsr on the current CPU.
      
      So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the
      call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).
