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.

Commit d1c84f79 leads to a regression when microcode_amd.c is compiled into the kernel. It causes a big boot delay because the firmware is not available. See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126267290920060 It also renders the reload sysfs attribute useless. Fixing this is too intrusive for an -rc5 kernel. Thus I'd like to restore the microcode loading behaviour of kernel 2.6.32.

Chris McDermott from IBM confirmed that hurricane chipset in IBM summit platforms doesn't support logical flat mode. Irrespective of the other things like apic_id's, total number of logical cpu's, Linux kernel should default to physical mode for this system. The 32-bit kernel does so using the OEM checks for the IBM summit platform. Add a similar OEM platform check for the 64bit kernel too.

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).

Pass the frame pointer from the regs of the interrupted path to dump_trace() while processing the stack trace. Currently, dump_trace() takes the current bp and starts the callchain from dump_trace() itself. This is wasteful because we need to walk through the entire NMI/DEBUG stack before retrieving the interrupted point. We can fix that by just using the frame pointer from the captured regs.

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."

Commit 83ce4009 did the following change If the TSC is constant and non-stop, also set it reliable. But, there seems to be few systems that will end up with TSC warp across sockets, depending on how the cpus come out of reset. Skipping TSC sync test on such systems may result in time inconsistency later. So, reenable TSC sync test even on constant and non-stop TSC systems. Set, sched_clock_stable to 1 by default and reset it in mark_tsc_unstable, if TSC sync fails. This change still gives perf benefit mentioned in 83ce4009 for systems where TSC is reliable.

Due to recent changes wakeup and mptable, we run out of early reservations on 32-bit NUMA. Thus, adjust the available number. Signed-off-by: NYinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> LKML-Reference: <4B22D754.2020706@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Use bitmap library and kill some unused iommu helper functions. 1. s/iommu_area_free/bitmap_clear/ 2. s/iommu_area_reserve/bitmap_set/ 3. Use bitmap_find_next_zero_area instead of find_next_zero_area This cannot be simple substitution because find_next_zero_area doesn't check the last bit of the limit in bitmap 4. Remove iommu_area_free, iommu_area_reserve, and find_next_zero_area Signed-off-by: NAkinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Cc: "David S.

The UV BIOS has moved the location of some of their pointers to the "partition reserved page" from memory into a uv hub MMR. The GRU does not support bcopy operations from MMR space so we need to special case the MMR addresses using VLOAD operations. Additionally, the BIOS call for registering a message queue watchlist has removed the 'blade' value and eliminated the structure that was being passed in. This is also reflected in this patch.
