      doc: fix broken references · 395cf969
      Paul Bolle 提交于
      There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
      Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
      caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
      Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.
      
      Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
      they were part of.

      x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties on AMD family 15h · dfb09f9b
      Borislav Petkov 提交于
      This patch provides performance tuning for the "Bulldozer" CPU. With its
      shared instruction cache there is a chance of generating an excessive
      number of cache cross-invalidates when running specific workloads on the
      cores of a compute module.
      
      This excessive amount of cross-invalidations can be observed if cache
      lines backed by shared physical memory alias in bits [14:12] of their
      virtual addresses, as those bits are used for the index generation.
      
      This patch addresses the issue by clearing all the bits in the [14:12]
      slice of the file mapping's virtual address at generation time, thus
      forcing those bits the same for all mappings of a single shared library
      across processes and, in doing so, avoids instruction cache aliases.
      
      It also adds the command line option "align_va_addr=(32|64|on|off)" with
      which virtual address alignment can be enabled for 32-bit or 64-bit x86
      individually, or both, or be completely disabled.
      
      This change leaves virtual region address allocation on other families
      and/or vendors unaffected.

      panic: panic=-1 for immediate reboot · 4302fbc8
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      When a kernel BUG or oops occurs, ChromeOS intends to panic and
      immediately reboot, with stacktrace and other messages preserved in RAM
      across reboot.
      
      But the longer we delay, the more likely the user is to poweroff and
      lose the info.
      
      panic_timeout (seconds before rebooting) is set by panic= boot option or
      sysctl or /proc/sys/kernel/panic; but 0 means wait forever, so at
      present we have to delay at least 1 second.
      
      Let a negative number mean reboot immediately (with the small cosmetic
      benefit of suppressing that newline-less "Rebooting in %d seconds.."
      message).

      usb-storage: redo incorrect reads · 21c13a4f
      Alan Stern 提交于
      Some USB mass-storage devices have bugs that cause them not to handle
      the first READ(10) command they receive correctly.  The Corsair
      Padlock v2 returns completely bogus data for its first read (possibly
      it returns the data in encrypted form even though the device is
      supposed to be unlocked).  The Feiya SD/SDHC card reader fails to
      complete the first READ(10) command after it is plugged in or after a
      new card is inserted, returning a status code that indicates it thinks
      the command was invalid, which prevents the kernel from retrying the
      read.
      
      Since the first read of a new device or a new medium is for the
      partition sector, the kernel is unable to retrieve the device's
      partition table.  Users have to manually issue an "hdparm -z" or
      "blockdev --rereadpt" command before they can access the device.
      
      This patch (as1470) works around the problem.  It adds a new quirk
      flag, US_FL_INVALID_READ10, indicating that the first READ(10) should
      always be retried immediately, as should any failing READ(10) commands
      (provided the preceding READ(10) command succeeded, to avoid getting
      stuck in a loop).  The patch also adds appropriate unusual_devs
      entries containing the new flag.

      intel-iommu: Enable super page (2MiB, 1GiB, etc.) support · 6dd9a7c7
      Youquan Song 提交于
      There are no externally-visible changes with this. In the loop in the
      internal __domain_mapping() function, we simply detect if we are mapping:
        - size >= 2MiB, and
        - virtual address aligned to 2MiB, and
        - physical address aligned to 2MiB, and
        - on hardware that supports superpages.
      
      (and likewise for larger superpages).
      
      We automatically use a superpage for such mappings. We never have to
      worry about *breaking* superpages, since we trust that we will always
      *unmap* the same range that was mapped. So all we need to do is ensure
      that dma_pte_clear_range() will also cope with superpages.
      
      Adjust pfn_to_dma_pte() to take a superpage 'level' as an argument, so
      it can return a PTE at the appropriate level rather than always
      extending the page tables all the way down to level 1. Again, this is
      simplified by the fact that we should never encounter existing small
      pages when we're creating a mapping; any old mapping that used the same
      virtual range will have been entirely removed and its obsolete page
      tables freed.
      
      Provide an 'intel_iommu=sp_off' argument on the command line as a
      chicken bit. Not that it should ever be required.

      The original commit seen in the iommu-2.6.git was Youquan's
      implementation (and completion) of my own half-baked code which I'd
      typed into an email. Followed by half a dozen subsequent 'fixes'.
      
      I've taken the unusual step of rewriting history and collapsing the
      original commits in order to keep the main history simpler, and make
      life easier for the people who are going to have to backport this to
      older kernels. And also so I can give it a more coherent commit comment
      which (hopefully) gives a better explanation of what's going on.
      
      The original sequence of commits leading to identical code was:
      
      Youquan Song (3):
            intel-iommu: super page support
            intel-iommu: Fix superpage alignment calculation error
