record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some
general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables
looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.

This patch uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE for crashkernel reservation also for
i386 and prints a error message on failure.

The patch is still for 2.6.26 since it is only bug fixing. The unification
of reserve_crashkernel() between i386 and x86_64 should be done for 2.6.27.

Booting 2.6.26-rc6 on my 486 DX/4 fails with a "BUG: Int 6"
(invalid opcode) and a kernel halt immediately after the
kernel has been uncompressed. The BUG shows EIP pointing
to an rdtsc instruction in native_read_tsc(), invoked from
native_sched_clock().

(This error occurs so early that not even the serial console
can capture it.)

A bisection showed that this bug first occurs in 2.6.26-rc3-git7,
via commit 9ccc906c:

>x86: distangle user disabled TSC from unstable
>
>tsc_enabled is set to 0 from the command line switch "notsc" and from
>the mark_tsc_unstable code. Seperate those functionalities and replace
>tsc_enable with tsc_disable. This makes also the native_sched_clock()

>Preparatory patch to solve the sched_clock() issue on 32 bit.
>
>Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

The core reason for this bug is that native_sched_clock() gets
called before tsc_init().

Before the commit above, tsc_32.c used a "tsc_enabled" variable
which defaulted to 0 == disabled, and which only got enabled late
in tsc_init(). Thus early calls to native_sched_clock() would skip
the TSC and use jiffies instead.

After the commit above, tsc_32.c uses a "tsc_disabled" variable
which defaults to 0, meaning that the TSC is Ok to use. Early calls
to native_sched_clock() now erroneously try to use the TSC on
!cpu_has_tsc processors, leading to invalid opcode exceptions.

My proposed fix is to initialise tsc_disabled to a "soft disabled"
state distinct from the hard disabled state set up by the "notsc"
kernel option. This fixes the native_sched_clock() problem. It also
allows tsc_init() to be simplified: instead of setting tsc_disabled = 1
on every error return, we just set tsc_disabled = 0 once when all
checks have succeeded.

I've verified that this lets my 486 boot again. I've also verified
that a Core2 machine still uses the TSC as clocksource after the patch.

Somehow (as described below) TS_USEDFPU is set but the fpu is not
allocated or freed.

Another possible FPU pre-emption issue with the sleazy FPU optimization
which was benign before but not so anymore, with the dynamic FPU allocation
patch.

New task is getting exec'd and it is prempted at the below point.

flush_thread() {
	...
	/*
	* Forget coprocessor state..
	*/
	clear_fpu(tsk);
		<----- Preemption point
	clear_used_math();
	...
}

Now when it context switches in again, as the used_math() is still set
and fpu_counter can be > 5, we will do a math_state_restore() which sets
the task's TS_USEDFPU. After it continues from the above preemption point
it does clear_used_math() and much later free_thread_xstate().

Now, at the next context switch, it is quite possible that xstate is
null, used_math() is not set and TS_USEDFPU is still set. This will
trigger unlazy_fpu() causing kernel oops.

Fix this  by clearing tsk's fpu_counter before clearing task's fpu.

Most users by far do not care about the exact return value (they only
really care about whether the copy succeeded in its entirety or not),
but a few special core routines actually care deeply about exactly how
many bytes were copied from user space.

And the unrolled versions of the x86-64 user copy routines would
sometimes report that it had copied more bytes than it actually had.

Very few uses actually have partial copies to begin with, but to make
this bug even harder to trigger, most x86 CPU's use the "rep string"
instructions for normal user copies, and that version didn't have this
issue.

To make it even harder to hit, the one user of this that really cared
about the return value (and used the uncached version of the copy that
doesn't use the "rep string" instructions) was the generic write
routine, which pre-populated its source, once more hiding the problem by
avoiding the exception case that triggers the bug.

In other words, very special thanks to Bron Gondwana who not only
triggered this, but created a test-program to show it, and bisected the
behavior down to commit 08291429 ("mm:
fix pagecache write deadlocks") which changed the access pattern just
enough that you can now trigger it with 'writev()' with multiple
iovec's.

That commit itself was not the cause of the bug, it just allowed all the
stars to align just right that you could trigger the problem.

[ Side note: this is just the minimal fix to make the copy routines
  (with __copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache as the particular version that
  was involved in showing this) have the right return values.

  We really should improve on the exceptional case further - to make the
  copy do a byte-accurate copy up to the exact page limit that causes it
  to fail.  As it is, the callers have to do extra work to handle the
  limit case gracefully. ]

Recently (around 2.6.25) I've noticed that RTC no longer works for me.  It
turned out this is because I use pnpacpi=off kernel option to work around
the parport_pc bugs.  I always did so, but RTC used to work fine in the
past, and now it have regressed.

The patch fixes the problem by creating the platform device for the RTC
when PNP is disabled.  This may also help running the PNP-enabled kernel
on an older PCs.

It would be interesting to see where the int3 comes from.  Too bad,
lockdep doesn't provide the register dump. The stacktrace also doesn't
go further than the int3(), I wonder if this int3 came from userspace?
The ltrace readme says "software breakpoints, like gdb", so I guess
this is the case. Yep, seems like it.

Page faults in kernel address space between PAGE_OFFSET up to
VMALLOC_START should not try to map as vmalloc.

Fix rarely endless page faults inside mount_block_root for root
filesystem at boot time.

All 32bit kernels up to 2.6.25 can fail into this hole.
I can not present this under native linux kernel. I see, that the 64bit
has fixed the problem. I copied the same lines into 32bit part.

Recorded debugs are from coLinux kernel 2.6.22.18 (virtualisation):
http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/testing/pfn-check-0.7.3/20080410-antinx/bug16-recursive-page-fault-endless.txt
The physicaly memory was trimmed down to 192MB to better catch the bug.
More memory gets the bug more rarely.

Details, how every x86 32bit system can fail:

Start from "mount_block_root",
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/init/do_mounts.c#L297
There the variable "fs_names" got one memory page with 4096 bytes.
Variable "p" walks through the existing file system types. The first
string is no problem.
But, with the second loop in mount_block_root the offset of "p" is not
at beginning of page, the offset is for example +9, if "reiserfs" is the
first in list.
Than calls do_mount_root, and lands in sys_mount.
Remember: Variable "type_page" contains now "fs_type+9" and not contains
a full page.
The sys_mount copies 4096 bytes with function "exact_copy_from_user()":
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1540

Mostly exist pages after the buffer "fs_names+4096+9" and the page fault
handler was not called. No problem.

In the case, if the page after "fs_names+4096" is not mapped, the page
fault handler was called from http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1320

The do_page_fault gots an address 0xc03b4000.
It's kernel address, address >= TASK_SIZE, but not from vmalloc! It's
from "__getname()" alias "kmem_cache_alloc".
The "error_code" is 0. "vmalloc_fault" will be call:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L332

"vmalloc_fault" tryed to find the physical page for a non existing
virtual memory area. The macro "pte_present" in vmalloc_fault()
got a next page fault for 0xc0000ed0 at:

No PTE exist for such virtual address. The page fault handler was trying
to sync the physical page for the PTE lockup.

This called vmalloc_fault() again for address 0xc000000, and that also
was not existing. The endless began...

In normal case the cpu would still loop with disabled interrrupts. Under
coLinux this was catched by a stack overflow inside printk debugs.

We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.

The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
gcc from performing the transformation.

This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
to replace the open-coded versions I know about.

Currently arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c always adds __GFP_NORETRY
to the allocation flags, because it wants to be reasonably
sure not to deadlock when calling alloc_pages().

But really that should only be done in two cases:
- when allocating memory in the lower 16 MB DMA zone.
  If there's no free memory there, waiting or OOM killing is of no use
- when optimistically trying an allocation in the DMA32 zone
  when dma_mask < DMA_32BIT_MASK hoping that the allocation
  happens to fall within the limits of the dma_mask

Also blindly adding __GFP_NORETRY to the the gfp variable might
not be a good idea since we then also use it when calling
dma_ops->alloc_coherent(). Clearing it might also not be a
good idea, dma_alloc_coherent()'s caller might have set it
on purpose. The gfp variable should not be clobbered.

The hypercall instructions on Intel and AMD are different.  KVM allows the
guest to choose one or the other (the default is Intel), and if the guest
chooses incorrectly, KVM will patch it at runtime to select the correct
instruction.  This allows live migration between Intel and AMD machines.

This patching occurs in the x86 emulator.  The current code also executes
the hypercall.  Unfortunately, the tail end of the x86 emulator code also
executes, overwriting the return value of the hypercall with the original
contents of rax (which happens to be the hypercall number).

Fix not by executing the hypercall in the emulator context; instead let the
guest reissue the patched instruction and execute the hypercall via the
normal path.

Previously, one would have to specifically choose CONFIG_OLPC and
CONFIG_PCI_GOOLPC in order to enable PCI_OLPC.  That doesn't really work
for distro kernels, so this patch allows one to choose CONFIG_OLPC and
CONFIG_PCI_GOANY in order to build in OLPC support in a generic kernel (as
requested by Robert Millan).

This also moves GOOLPC before GOANY in the menuconfig list.

Finally, make pci_access_init return early if we detect OLPC hardware.
There's no need to continue probing stuff, and pci_pcbios_init
specifically trashes our settings (we didn't run into that before because
PCI_GOANY wasn't supported).

Jürgen Mell reported an FPU state corruption bug under CONFIG_PREEMPT,
and bisected it to commit v2.6.19-1363-gacc20761, "i386: add sleazy FPU
optimization".

Add tsk_used_math() checks to prevent calling math_state_restore()
which can sleep in the case of !tsk_used_math(). This prevents
making a blocking call in __switch_to().

Apparently "fpu_counter > 5" check is not enough, as in some signal handling
and fork/exec scenarios, fpu_counter > 5 and !tsk_used_math() is possible.

It's a side effect though. This is the failing scenario:

process 'A' in save_i387_ia32() just after clear_used_math()

Got an interrupt and pre-empted out.

At the next context switch to process 'A' again, kernel tries to restore
the math state proactively and sees a fpu_counter > 0 and !tsk_used_math()

This results in init_fpu() during the __switch_to()'s math_state_restore()

And resulting in fpu corruption which will be saved/restored
(save_i387_fxsave and restore_i387_fxsave) during the remaining
part of the signal handling after the context switch.

Clarify the usage of mtrr_lookup() in PAT code, and to make PAT code
resilient to mtrr lookup problems.

Specifically, pat_x_mtrr_type() is restructured to highlight, under what
conditions we look for mtrr hint. pat_x_mtrr_type() uses a default type
when there are any errors in mtrr lookup (still maintaining the pat
consistency). And, reserve_memtype() highlights its usage ot mtrr_lookup
for request type of '-1' and also defaults in a sane way on any mtrr
lookup failure.

pat.c looks at mtrr type of a range to get a hint on what mapping type
to request when user/API: (1) hasn't specified any type (/dev/mem
mapping) and we do not want to take performance hit by always mapping
UC_MINUS. This will be the case for /dev/mem mappings used to map BIOS
area or ACPI region which are WB'able. In this case, as long as MTRR is
not WB, PAT will request UC_MINUS for such mappings.

(2) user/API requests WB mapping while in reality MTRR may have UC or
WC. In this case, PAT can map as WB (without checking MTRR) and still
effective type will be UC or WC. But, a subsequent request to map same
region as UC or WC may fail, as the region will get trackked as WB in
PAT list. Looking at MTRR hint helps us to track based on effective type
rather than what user requested. Again, here mtrr_lookup is only used as
hint and we fallback to WB mapping (as requested by user) as default.

In both cases, after using the mtrr hint, we still go through the
memtype list to make sure there are no inconsistencies among multiple
users.

The RT team has been searching for a nasty latency. This latency shows
up out of the blue and has been seen to be as big as 5ms!

Using ftrace I found the cause of the latency.

   pcscd-2995  3dNh1 52360300us : irq_exit (smp_apic_timer_interrupt)
   pcscd-2995  3dN.2 52360301us : idle_cpu (irq_exit)
   pcscd-2995  3dN.2 52360301us : rcu_irq_exit (irq_exit)
   pcscd-2995  3dN.1 52360771us : smp_apic_timer_interrupt (apic_timer_interrupt
)
   pcscd-2995  3dN.1 52360771us : exit_idle (smp_apic_timer_interrupt)

Here's an example of a 400 us latency. pcscd took a timer interrupt and
returned with "need resched" enabled, but did not reschedule until after
the next interrupt came in at 52360771us 400us later!

At first I thought we somehow missed a preemption check in entry.S. But
I also noticed that this always seemed to happen during a __delay call.

   pcscd-2995  3dN.2 52360836us : rcu_irq_exit (irq_exit)
   pcscd-2995  3.N.. 52361265us : preempt_schedule (__delay)

Looking at the x86 delay, I found my problem.

In git commit 35d5d08a, Andrew Morton
placed preempt_disable around the entire delay due to TSC's not working
nicely on SMP.  Unfortunately for those that care about latencies this
is devastating! Especially when we have callers to mdelay(8).

Here I enable preemption during the loop and account for anytime the task
migrates to a new CPU. The delay asked for may be extended a bit by
the migration, but delay only guarantees that it will delay for that minimum
time. Delaying longer should not be an issue.

[
  Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for spotting that cpu wasn't updated,
    and to place the rep_nop between preempt_enabled/disable.
