Impact: keep kernel text read only Because dynamic ftrace converts the calls to mcount into and out of nops at run time, we needed to always keep the kernel text writable. But this defeats the point of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. This patch converts the kernel code to writable before ftrace modifies the text, and converts it back to read only afterward. The kernel text is converted to read/write, stop_machine is called to modify the code, then the kernel text is converted back to read only. The original version used SYSTEM_STATE to determine when it was OK or not to change the code to rw or ro. Andrew Morton pointed out that using SYSTEM_STATE is a bad idea since there is no guarantee to what its state will actually be. Instead, I moved the check into the set_kernel_text_* functions themselves, and use a local variable to determine when it is OK to change the kernel text RW permissions.

Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21 systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs for x86_64. Specifically commit b8ce3359, which merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code. Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did the following: hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG); However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following: cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT; hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer)); However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration. My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode. Signed-off-by: NJohn Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: avoid access to percpu vars in preempible context They are intended to be used whenever there's the possibility that there's some stale state which is going to be overwritten with a queued update, or to force a state change when we may be in lazy mode. Either way, we could end up calling it with preemption enabled, so wrap the functions in their own little preempt-disable section so they can be safely called in any context (though preemption should never be enabled if we're actually in a lazy state).

do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless of configuration in the current code. This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate() like normal C functions do. This way, unless gcc makes a copy of struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler used. This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it somewhat working. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Commit 6194ba6f ("x86: don't special-case pmd allocations as much") made changes to the way we handle pmd allocations, and while doing that it dropped a call to paravirt_release_pd on the pgd page from the pgd_dtor code path. As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the pgd page being freed, and as a result it ends up tracking this page as a page table page. After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots). Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

There's a small problem with hpet_rtc_reinit function - it checks for the: hpet_readl(HPET_COUNTER) - hpet_t1_cmp > 0 to continue increasing both the HPET_T1_CMP (register) and the hpet_t1_cmp (variable). But since the HPET_COUNTER is always 32-bit, if the hpet_t1_cmp is 64-bit this condition will always be FALSE once the latter hits the 32-bit boundary, and we can have a situation, when we don't increase the HPET_T1_CMP register high enough. The result - timer stops ticking, since HPET_T1_CMP becomes less, than the COUNTER and never increased again. The solution is (based on Linus's suggestion) to not compare 64-bits (on 64-bit x86), but to do the comparison on 32-bit signed integers.

Impact: Fixes crashes with misconfigured BIOSes on XSAVE hardware Avuton Olrich reported early boot crashes with v2.6.28 and bisected it down to dc1e35c6 ("x86, xsave: enable xsave/xrstor on cpus with xsave support"). If the CPUID limit bit in MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE is set, clear it to make all CPUID information available. This is required for some features to work, in particular XSAVE.

while looking at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11541 I realized that the mtrr.show param cannot work, because the code is processed much too early. This patch: - Declares mtrr.show as early_param - Stays consistent with the previous param (which I doubt that it ever worked), so mtrr.show=1 would still work - Declares mtrr_show as initdata Signed-off-by: NThomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Acked-by: NJan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
