      x86, percpu: fix kexec with vmlinux · ef3892bd
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      Impact: fix regression with kexec with vmlinux
      
      Split data.init into data.init, percpu, data.init2 sections
      instead of let data.init wrap percpu secion.
      
      Thus kexec loading will be happy, because sections will not
      overlap.
      
      Before the patch we have:

      Impact: bugfix
      
      In the 32-bit calling convention, %eax:%edx is used to return 64-bit
      values.  Don't save and restore %edx around wrapped functions, or they
      can't return a full 64-bit result.

      x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs, fix · 99fb4d34
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Impact: fix boot hang on pre-model-15 Intel CPUs
      
      rdmsrl_safe() does not work in very early bootup code yet, because we
      dont have the pagefault handler installed yet so exception section
      does not get parsed. rdmsr_safe() will just crash and hang the bootup.
      
      So limit the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR read to those CPU types that
      support it.

      x86: work around PAGE_KERNEL_WC not getting WC in iomap_atomic_prot_pfn. · ef5fa0ab
      Eric Anholt 提交于
      In the absence of PAT, PAGE_KERNEL_WC ends up mapping to a memory type that
      gets UC behavior even in the presence of a WC MTRR covering the area in
      question.  By swapping to PAGE_KERNEL_UC_MINUS, we can get the actual
      behavior the caller wanted (WC if you can manage it, UC otherwise).
      
      This recovers the 40% performance improvement of using WC in the DRM
      to upload vertex data.

      x86: use standard PIT frequency · e1b4d114
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      the RDC and ELAN platforms use slighly different PIT clocks, resulting in
      a timex.h hack that changes PIT_TICK_RATE during build time. But if a
      tester enables any of these platform support .config options, the PIT
      will be miscalibrated on standard PC platforms.
      
      So use one frequency - in a subsequent patch we'll add a quirk to allow
      x86 platforms to define different PIT frequencies.

      This is the case where a concurrent fault already installed the PTE and
      we get to free the newly allocated one.
      
      This is due to pgtable_page_ctor() doing the spin_lock_init(&page->ptl)
      which is overlaid with the {private, mapping} struct.
      
      union {
          struct {
              unsigned long private;
              struct address_space *mapping;
          };
          spinlock_t ptl;
          struct kmem_cache *slab;
          struct page *first_page;
      };
      
      Normally the spinlock is small enough to not stomp on page->mapping, but
      PREEMPT_RT=y has huge 'spin'locks.
      
      But lockdep kernels should also be able to trigger this splat, as the
      lock tracking code grows the spinlock to cover page->mapping.
      
      The obvious fix is calling pgtable_page_dtor() like the regular pte free
      path __pte_free_tlb() does.
      
      It seems all architectures except x86 and nm10300 already do this, and
      nm10300 doesn't seem to use pgtable_page_ctor(), which suggests it
      doesn't do SMP or simply doesnt do MMU at all or something.
