      x86/irq: mark NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC broken · ca713c2a
      由 Yinghai Lu 提交于 
      It causes crash on system with lots of cards with MSI-X
when irq_balancer enabled...

The patches fixing it were both complex and fragile, according
to Eric they were also doing quite dangerous things to the
hardware.

Instead we now have patches that solve this problem via static
NUMA node mappings - not dynamic allocation and balancing.

The patches are much simpler than this method but are still too
large outside of the merge window, so we mark the dynamic balancer
as broken for now, and queue up the new approach for v2.6.31.

[ Impact: deactivate broken kernel feature ]

      x86, intel-iommu: fix X2APIC && !ACPI build failure · f7d7f866
      由 David Woodhouse 提交于 
      This build failure:

| drivers/pci/dmar.c:47: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘dmar_tbl_size’
| drivers/pci/dmar.c:62: warning: ‘struct acpi_dmar_device_scope’ declared inside parameter list
| drivers/pci/dmar.c:62: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

Triggers due to this commit:

  d0b03bd1: x2apic/intr-remap: decouple interrupt remapping from x2apic

Which exposed a pre-existing but dormant fragility of the 'select X86_X2APIC'
it moved around and turned that fragility into a build failure.

Replace it with a proper 'depends on' construct.

      x86, mce, cmci: factor out threshold interrupt handler · b2762686
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      Impact: cleanup; preparation for feature

The mce_amd_64 code has an own private MC threshold vector with an own
interrupt handler. Since Intel needs a similar handler
it makes sense to share the vector because both can not
be active at the same time.

I factored the common APIC handler code into a separate file which can
be used by both the Intel or AMD MC code.

This is needed for the next patch which adds an Intel specific
CMCI handler.

This patch should be a nop for AMD, it just moves some code
around.

      bootmem: clean up arch-specific bootmem wrapping · c1329375
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Impact: cleaner and consistent bootmem wrapping

By setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE, archs can define
arch-specific wrappers for bootmem allocation.  However, this is done
a bit strangely in that only the high level convenience macros can be
changed while lower level, but still exported, interface functions
can't be wrapped.  This not only is messy but also leads to strange
situation where alloc_bootmem() does what the arch wants it to do but
the equivalent __alloc_bootmem() call doesn't although they should be
able to be used interchangeably.

This patch updates bootmem such that archs can override / wrap the
backend function - alloc_bootmem_core() instead of the highlevel
interface functions to allow simpler and consistent wrapping.  Also,
HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE is renamed to HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM.

      x86: remove the Voyager 32-bit subarch · 965c7eca
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      Impact: remove unused/broken code

The Voyager subarch last built successfully on the v2.6.26 kernel
and has been stale since then and does not build on the v2.6.27,
v2.6.28 and v2.6.29-rc5 kernels.

No actual users beyond the maintainer reported this breakage.
Patches were sent and most of the fixes were accepted but the
discussion around how to do a few remaining issues cleanly
fizzled out with no resolution and the code remained broken.

In the v2.6.30 x86 tree development cycle 32-bit subarch support
has been reworked and removed - and the Voyager code, beyond the
build problems already known, needs serious and significant
changes and probably a rewrite to support it.

CONFIG_X86_VOYAGER has been marked BROKEN then. The maintainer has
been notified but no patches have been sent so far to fix it.

While all other subarchs have been converted to the new scheme,
voyager is still broken. We'd prefer to receive patches which
clean up the current situation in a constructive way, but even in
case of removal there is no obstacle to add that support back
after the issues have been sorted out in a mutually acceptable
fashion.

So remove this inactive code for now.

      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: make lazy %gs optional on x86_32 · ccbeed3a
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Impact: pt_regs changed, lazy gs handling made optional, add slight
        overhead to SAVE_ALL, simplifies error_code path a bit

On x86_32, %gs hasn't been used by kernel and handled lazily.  pt_regs
doesn't have place for it and gs is saved/loaded only when necessary.
In preparation for stack protector support, this patch makes lazy %gs
handling optional by doing the followings.

* Add CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and place for gs in pt_regs.

* Save and restore %gs along with other registers in entry_32.S unless
  LAZY_GS.  Note that this unfortunately adds "pushl $0" on SAVE_ALL
  even when LAZY_GS.  However, it adds no overhead to common exit path
  and simplifies entry path with error code.

* Define different user_gs accessors depending on LAZY_GS and add
  lazy_save_gs() and lazy_load_gs() which are noop if !LAZY_GS.  The
  lazy_*_gs() ops are used to save, load and clear %gs lazily.

* Define ELF_CORE_COPY_KERNEL_REGS() which always read %gs directly.

xen and lguest changes need to be verified.

      ftrace: change function graph tracer to use new in_nmi · 9a5fd902
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The function graph tracer piggy backed onto the dynamic ftracer
to use the in_nmi custom code for dynamic tracing. The problem
was (as Andrew Morton pointed out) it really only wanted to bail
out if the context of the current CPU was in NMI context. But the
dynamic ftrace in_nmi custom code was true if _any_ CPU happened
to be in NMI context.

Now that we have a generic in_nmi interface, this patch changes
the function graph code to use it instead of the dynamic ftarce
custom code.

      ring-buffer: add NMI protection for spinlocks · 78d904b4
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      Impact: prevent deadlock in NMI

The ring buffers are not yet totally lockless with writing to
the buffer. When a writer crosses a page, it grabs a per cpu spinlock
to protect against a reader. The spinlocks taken by a writer are not
to protect against other writers, since a writer can only write to
its own per cpu buffer. The spinlocks protect against readers that
can touch any cpu buffer. The writers are made to be reentrant
with the spinlocks disabling interrupts.

The problem arises when an NMI writes to the buffer, and that write
crosses a page boundary. If it grabs a spinlock, it can be racing
with another writer (since disabling interrupts does not protect
against NMIs) or with a reader on the same CPU. Luckily, most of the
users are not reentrant and protects against this issue. But if a
user of the ring buffer becomes reentrant (which is what the ring
buffers do allow), if the NMI also writes to the ring buffer then
we risk the chance of a deadlock.

This patch moves the ftrace_nmi_enter called by nmi_enter() to the
ring buffer code. It replaces the current ftrace_nmi_enter that is
used by arch specific code to arch_ftrace_nmi_enter and updates
the Kconfig to handle it.

When an NMI is called, it will set a per cpu variable in the ring buffer
code and will clear it when the NMI exits. If a write to the ring buffer
crosses page boundaries inside an NMI, a trylock is used on the spin
lock instead. If the spinlock fails to be acquired, then the entry
is discarded.

This bug appeared in the ftrace work in the RT tree, where event tracing
is reentrant. This workaround solved the deadlocks that appeared there.
