      x86: add extension fields for bootloader type and version · 5031296c
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      A long ago, in days of yore, it all began with a god named Thor.
There were vikings and boats and some plans for a Linux kernel
header.  Unfortunately, a single 8-bit field was used for bootloader
type and version.  This has generally worked without *too* much pain,
but we're getting close to flat running out of ID fields.

Add extension fields for both type and version.  The type will be
extended if it the old field is 0xE; the version is a simple MSB
extension.

Keep /proc/sys/kernel/bootloader_type containing
(type << 4) + (ver & 0xf) for backwards compatiblity, but also add
/proc/sys/kernel/bootloader_version which contains the full version
number.

[ Impact: new feature to support more bootloaders ]

      FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU() · 9b8de747
      由 David Howells 提交于 
      In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.

On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
up the following errors:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o

To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

      cpumask: fix CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y cpu hotunplug crash · 30e1e6d1
      由 Rusty Russell 提交于 
      Impact: Fix cpu offline when CONFIG_MAXSMP=y

Changeset bc9b83dd "cpumask: convert
c1e_mask in arch/x86/kernel/process.c to cpumask_var_t" contained a
bug: c1e_mask is manipulated even if C1E isn't detected (and hence
not allocated).

This is simply fixed by checking for NULL (which gcc optimizes out
anyway of CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, since it knows ce1_mask can never
be NULL).

In addition, fix a leak where select_idle_routine re-allocates
(and re-clears) c1e_mask on every cpu init.

      x86-32: use non-lazy io bitmap context switching · db949bba
      由 Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于 
      Impact: remove 32-bit optimization to prepare unification

x86-32 and -64 differ in the way they context-switch tasks
with io permission bitmaps.  x86-64 simply copies the next
tasks io bitmap into place (if any) on context switch.  x86-32
invalidates the bitmap on context switch, so that the next
IO instruction will fault; at that point it installs the
appropriate IO bitmap.

This makes context switching IO-bitmap-using tasks a bit more
less expensive, at the cost of making the next IO instruction
slower due to the extra fault.  This tradeoff only makes sense
if IO-bitmap-using processes are relatively common, but they
don't actually use IO instructions very often.

However, in a typical desktop system, the only process likely
to be using IO bitmaps is the X server, and nothing at all on
a server.  Therefore the lazy context switch doesn't really win
all that much, and its just a gratuitious difference from
64-bit code.

This patch removes the lazy context switch, with a view to
unifying this code in a later change.

      x86, mm: rename TASK_SIZE64 => TASK_SIZE_MAX · d9517346
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      Impact: cleanup

Rename TASK_SIZE64 to TASK_SIZE_MAX, and provide the
define on 32-bit too. (mapped to TASK_SIZE)

This allows 32-bit code to make use of the (former-) TASK_SIZE64
symbol as well, in a clean way.

      x86: implement x86_32 stack protector · 60a5317f
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Impact: stack protector for x86_32

Implement stack protector for x86_32.  GDT entry 28 is used for it.
It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes.
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs
to the stack canary segment on entry.  As %gs is otherwise unused by
the kernel, the canary can be anywhere.  It's defined as a percpu
variable.

x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as
struct pt_regs.  With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the
whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy
back on return thus losing all changed.  For now, -fno-stack-protector
is added to all files which contain those functions.  We definitely
need something better.

      x86: move stack_canary into irq_stack · 947e76cd
      由 Brian Gerst 提交于 
      Impact: x86_64 percpu area layout change, irq_stack now at the beginning

Now that the PDA is empty except for the stack canary, it can be removed.
The irqstack is moved to the start of the per-cpu section.  If the stack
protector is enabled, the canary overlaps the bottom 48 bytes of the irqstack.

tj: * updated subject
    * dropped asm relocation of irq_stack_ptr
    * updated comments a bit
    * rebased on top of stack canary changes

      x86-64: Convert irqstacks to per-cpu · 26f80bd6
      由 Brian Gerst 提交于 
      Move the irqstackptr variable from the PDA to per-cpu.  Make the
stacks themselves per-cpu, removing some specific allocation code.
Add a seperate flag (is_boot_cpu) to simplify the per-cpu boot
adjustments.

tj: * sprinkle some underbars around.

    * irq_stack_ptr is not used till traps_init(), no reason to
      initialize it early.  On SMP, just leaving it NULL till proper
      initialization in setup_per_cpu_areas() works.  Dropped
      is_boot_cpu and early irq_stack_ptr initialization.

    * do DECLARE/DEFINE_PER_CPU(char[IRQ_STACK_SIZE], irq_stack)
      instead of (char, irq_stack[IRQ_STACK_SIZE]).

      x86: Hypervisor detection and get tsc_freq from hypervisor · 88b094fb
      由 Alok Kataria 提交于 
      Impact: Changes timebase calibration on Vmware.

v3->v2 : Abstract the hypervisor detection and feature (tsc_freq) request
	 behind a hypervisor.c file
v2->v1 : Add a x86_hyper_vendor field to the cpuinfo_x86 structure.
	 This avoids multiple calls to the hypervisor detection function.

This patch adds function to detect if we are running under VMware.
The current way to check if we are on VMware is following,
#  check if "hypervisor present bit" is set, if so read the 0x40000000
   cpuid leaf and check for "VMwareVMware" signature.
#  if the above fails, check the DMI vendors name for "VMware" string
   if we find one we query the VMware hypervisor port to check if we are
   under VMware.

The DMI + "VMware hypervisor port check" is needed for older VMware products,
which don't implement the hypervisor signature cpuid leaf.
Also note that since we are checking for the DMI signature the hypervisor
port should never be accessed on native hardware.

This patch also adds a hypervisor_get_tsc_freq function, instead of
calibrating the frequency which can be error prone in virtualized
environment, we ask the hypervisor for it. We get the frequency from
the hypervisor by accessing the hypervisor port if we are running on VMware.
Other hypervisors too can add code to the generic routine to get frequency on
their platform.
