- Don't zero for __copy_from_user_inatomic following i386. This will prevent spurious zeros for parallel file system writers when one does a exception - The string instruction version didn't zero the output on exception. Oops. Also I cleaned up the code a bit while I was at it and added a minor optimization to the string instruction path. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

This patch adds the per thread cookie field to the task struct and the PDA. Also it makes sure that the PDA value gets the new cookie value at context switch, and that a new task gets a new cookie at task creation time.

Change the comments in the pda structure to make the first fields to have their offset documented and to have the comments aligned. The stack protector series needs a field at offset 40 (gcc ABI); annotate upto 40 for that reason.

kexec: Avoid overwriting the current pgd (V4, x86_64) This patch upgrades the x86_64-specific kexec code to avoid overwriting the current pgd. Overwriting the current pgd is bad when CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is used to start a secondary kernel that dumps the memory of the previous kernel. The code introduces a new set of page tables. These tables are used to provide an executable identity mapping without overwriting the current pgd. Signed-off-by: NMagnus Damm <magnus@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

Based on a idea by Jeremy Fitzhardinge: Replace the volatiles and memory clobbers in the PDA access with telling gcc about access to a proxy PDA structure that doesn't actually exist. But the dummy accesses give a defined ordering for read/write accesses. Also add some memory barriers to the early GS initialization to make sure no PDA access is moved before it. Advantage is some .text savings (probably most from better code for accessing "current"): text data bss dec hex filename 4845647 1223688 615864 6685199 66020f vmlinux 4837780 1223688 615864 6677332 65e354 vmlinux-pda 1.2% smaller code Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

Based on patch from David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>, but changed by AK. Optimizes the 64-bit hamming weight for x86_64 processors assuming they have fast multiplication. Uses five fewer bitops than the generic hweight64. Benchmark on one EMT64 showed ~25% speedup with 2^24 consecutive calls. Define a new ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER that can be set by other architectures that can also multiply fast. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

And replace all users with ordinary smp_processor_id. The function was originally added to get some basic oops information out even if the GS register was corrupted. However that didn't work for some anymore because printk is needed to print the oops and it uses smp_processor_id() already. Also GS register corruptions are not particularly common anymore. This also helps the Xen port which would otherwise need to do this in a special way because it can't access the local APIC.

Right now the kernel on x86-64 has a 100% lazy fpu behavior: after *every* context switch a trap is taken for the first FPU use to restore the FPU context lazily. This is of course great for applications that have very sporadic or no FPU use (since then you avoid doing the expensive save/restore all the time). However for very frequent FPU users... you take an extra trap every context switch. The patch below adds a simple heuristic to this code: After 5 consecutive context switches of FPU use, the lazy behavior is disabled and the context gets restored every context switch. If the app indeed uses the FPU, the trap is avoided. (the chance of the 6th time slice using FPU after the previous 5 having done so are quite high obviously). After 256 switches, this is reset and lazy behavior is returned (until there are 5 consecutive ones again). The reason for this is to give apps that do longer bursts of FPU use still the lazy behavior back after some time.

Now for a completely different but trivial approach. I just boot tested it with 255 CPUS and everything worked. Currently everything (except module data) we place in the per cpu area we know about at compile time. So instead of allocating a fixed size for the per_cpu area allocate the number of bytes we need plus a fixed constant for to be used for modules. It isn't perfect but it is much less of a pain to work with than what we are doing now. AK: fixed warning Signed-off-by: NEric W.

This unifies the standard backtracer and the new stacktrace in memory backtracer. The standard one is converted to use callbacks and then reimplement stacktrace using new callbacks. The main advantage is that stacktrace can now use the new dwarf2 unwinder and avoid false positives in many cases. I kept it simple to make sure the standard backtracer stays reliable.

Lockdep can call the dwarf2 unwinder early, and the dwarf2 code uses safe_smp_processor_id which tries to access the local APIC page. But that doesn't work before the APIC code has set up its fixmap. Check for this case and always return boot cpu then. Cc: jbeulich@novell.com Cc: mingo@elte.hu Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

Instead of hackish manual parsing Requires earlier i386 patchkit, but also fixes i386 early_printk again. I removed some obsolete really early parameters which didn't do anything useful. Also made a few parameters that needed it early (mostly oops printing setup) Also removed one panic check that wasn't visible without early console anyways (the early console is now initialized after that panic) This cleans up a lot of code.

... instead of using a CONFIG option. The config option still controls if the resulting executable actually has unwind information.

Hello, Following my discussion with Andi. Here is a patch that introduces two new TIF flags to simplify the context switch code in __switch_to(). The idea is to minimize the number of cache lines accessed in the common case, i.e., when neither the debug registers nor the I/O bitmap are used. This patch covers the x86-64 modifications. A patch for i386 follows. Changelog: - add TIF_DEBUG to track when debug registers are active - add TIF_IO_BITMAP to track when I/O bitmap is used - modify __switch_to() to use the new TIF flags <signed-off-by>: eranian@hpl.hp.com Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
