The hardware virtualization technology evolves very fast. But currently it's hard to tell if your CPU support a certain kind of HW technology without digging into the source code. The patch add a new catagory in "flags" under /proc/cpuinfo. Now "flags" can indicate the (important) HW virtulization features the CPU supported as well. Current implementation just cover Intel VMX side. Signed-off-by: NSheng Yang <sheng.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: "smx" flags showed as "safer" in /proc/cpuinfo The SMX feature flag is the so-called "safer mode"... I had put that in quotes, but that flagged it as a cpuinfo flag name. Remove the quotes to correct the flag name in /proc/cpuinfo. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

We have had a number of cases where <asm/cpufeature.h> (and its predecessors) have diverged substantially from the names list in /proc/cpuinfo. This patch generates the latter from the former. It retains the option for explicitly overriding the strings, but by making that require a separate action it should at least be less likely to happen. It would be good to do a future pass and rename strings that are gratuituously different in the kernel (/proc/cpuinfo is a userspace interface and must remain constant.) Signed-off-by: NH.

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>

Use alternatives to select the workaround for the 11AP Pentium erratum for the affected steppings on the fly rather than build time. Remove the X86_GOOD_APIC configuration option and replace all the calls to apic_write_around() with plain apic_write(), protecting accesses to the ESR as appropriate due to the 3AP Pentium erratum. Remove apic_read_around() and all its invocations altogether as not needed. Remove apic_write_atomic() and all its implementing backends. The use of ASM_OUTPUT2() is not strictly needed for input constraints, but I have used it for readability's sake. I had the feeling no one else was brave enough to do it, so I went ahead and here it is. Verified by checking the generated assembly and tested with both a 32-bit and a 64-bit configuration, also with the 11AP "feature" forced on and verified with gdb on /proc/kcore to work as expected (as an 11AP machines are quite hard to get hands on these days). Some script complained about the use of "volatile", but apic_write() needs it for the same reason and is effectively a replacement for writel(), so I have disregarded it. I am not sure what the policy wrt defconfig files is, they are generated and there is risk of a conflict resulting from an unrelated change, so I have left changes to them out. The option will get removed from them at the next run. Some testing with machines other than mine will be needed to avoid some stupid mistake, but despite its volume, the change is not really that intrusive, so I am fairly confident that because it works for me, it will everywhere.

Sets up pat_init() infrastructure. PAT MSR has following setting. PAT |PCD ||PWT ||| 000 WB _PAGE_CACHE_WB 001 WC _PAGE_CACHE_WC 010 UC- _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS 011 UC _PAGE_CACHE_UC We are effectively changing WT from boot time setting to WC. UC_MINUS is used to provide backward compatibility to existing /dev/mem users(X). reserve_memtype and free_memtype are new interfaces for maintaining alias-free mapping. It is currently implemented in a simple way with a linked list and not optimized. reserve and free tracks the effective memory type, as a result of PAT and MTRR setting rather than what is actually requested in PAT. pat_init piggy backs on mtrr_init as the rules for setting both pat and mtrr are same.
