由 Mark Langsdorf 提交于
When a CPU core is shut down, all of its caches need to be flushed to prevent stale data from causing errors if the core is resumed. Current Linux suspend code performs an assignment after the flush, which can add dirty data back to the cache. On some AMD platforms, additional speculative reads have caused crashes on resume because of this dirty data. Relocate the cache flush to be the very last thing done before halting. Tie into an assembly line so the compile will not reorder it. Add some documentation explaining what is going on and why we're doing this.

Uses xsave/xrstor (instead of traditional fxsave/fxrstor) in context switch when available. Introduces TS_XSAVE flag, which determine the need to use xsave/xrstor instructions during context switch instead of the legacy fxsave/fxrstor instructions. Thread-synchronous status word is already in L1 cache during this code patch and thus minimizes the performance penality compared to (cpu_has_xsave) checks.

This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/. The format: 1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved. 2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h. 3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single underscores. Signed-off-by: NVegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH) C-states. When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1, and use IO accesses for deeper C-states. This option is useful for power and performance comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs where broken MWAIT support is advertised. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10807 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914Signed-off-by: NZhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NLi Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NLen Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

"idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using the halt instruction. No MWAIT, no IO accesses, no C-states deeper than C1.

由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于
OK, so 25-mm1 gave a lockdep error which made me look into this. The first thing that I noticed was the horrible mess; the second thing I saw was hacks like: 71e93d15 The problem is that arch idle routines are somewhat inconsitent with their IRQ state handling and instead of fixing _that_, we go paper over the problem. So the thing I've tried to do is set a standard for idle routines and fix them all up to adhere to that. So the rules are: idle routines are entered with IRQs disabled idle routines will exit with IRQs enabled Nearly all already did this in one form or another. Merge the 32 and 64 bit bits so they no longer have different bugs. As for the actual lockdep warning; __sti_mwait() did a plainly un-annotated irq-enable.

It is claimed that NexGen CPUs were never shipped: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/20/179 Also, the kernel support for these chips has been broken for a long time, the code intended to support NexGen thereby being essentially dead. As an outcome of the discussion that can be found using the URL above, this patch removes the NexGen support altogether. The changes in this patch survived a defconfig build for i386, a couple of successful randconfig builds, as well as a runtime test, which consisted in booting a 32-bit x86 box up to the shell prompt.

Split the FPU save area from the task struct. This allows easy migration of FPU context, and it's generally cleaner. It also allows the following two optimizations: 1) only allocate when the application actually uses FPU, so in the first lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps. Next patch does this lazy allocation. 2) allocate the right size for the actual cpu rather than 512 bytes always. Patches enabling xsave/xrstor support (coming shortly) will take advantage of this.

由 Erik Bosman 提交于
This patch implements the PR_GET_TSC and PR_SET_TSC prctl() commands on the x86 platform (both 32 and 64 bit.) These commands control the ability to read the timestamp counter from userspace (the RDTSC instruction.) While the RDTSC instuction is a useful profiling tool, it is also the source of some non-determinism in ring-3. For deterministic replay applications it is useful to be able to trap and emulate (and record the outcome of) this instruction. This patch uses code earlier used to disable the timestamp counter for the SECCOMP framework. A side-effect of this patch is that the SECCOMP environment will now also disable the timestamp counter on x86_64 due to the addition of the TIF_NOTSC define on this platform. The code which enables/disables the RDTSC instruction during context switches is in the __switch_to_xtra function, which already handles other unusual conditions, so normal performance should not have to suffer from this change.

Otherwise, enabling (or better, subsequent disabling) of single stepping would cause a kernel oops on CPUs not having this MSR.
