When calibration against PIT fails, the warning that we print is misleading. In a virtualized environment the VM may get descheduled while calibration or, the check in PIT calibration may fail due to other virtualization overheads. The warning message explicitly assumes that calibration failed due to SMI's which may not be the case. Change that to something proper.

Larry Finger reported at http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/1/90: An ancient laptop of mine started throwing errors from b43legacy when I started using 2.6.27 on it. This has been bisected to commit bfc0f594 "x86: merge tsc calibration". The unification of the TSC code adopted mostly the 64bit code, which prefers PMTIMER/HPET over the PIT calibration. Larrys system has an AMD K6 CPU. Such systems are known to have PMTIMER incarnations which run at double speed. This results in a miscalibration of the TSC by factor 0.5. So the resulting calibrated CPU/TSC speed is half of the real CPU speed, which means that the TSC based delay loop will run half the time it should run. That might explain why the b43legacy driver went berserk. On the other hand we know about systems, where the PIT based calibration results in random crap due to heavy SMI/SMM disturbance. On those systems the PMTIMER/HPET based calibration logic with SMI detection shows better results. According to Alok also virtualized systems suffer from the PIT calibration method. The solution is to use a more wreckage aware aproach than the current either/or decision. 1) reimplement the retry loop which was dropped from the 32bit code during the merge. It repeats the calibration and selects the lowest frequency value as this is probably the closest estimate to the real frequency 2) Monitor the delta of the TSC values in the delay loop which waits for the PIT counter to reach zero. If the maximum value is significantly different from the minimum, then we have a pretty safe indicator that the loop was disturbed by an SMI. 3) keep the pmtimer/hpet reference as a backup solution for systems where the SMI disturbance is a permanent point of failure for PIT based calibration 4) do the loop iteration for both methods, record the lowest value and decide after all iterations finished. 5) Set a clear preference to PIT based calibration when the result makes sense. The implementation does the reference calibration based on HPET/PMTIMER around the delay, which is necessary for the PIT anyway, but keeps separate TSC values to ensure the "independency" of the resulting calibration values. Tested on various 32bit/64bit machines including Geode 266Mhz, AMD K6 (affected machine with a double speed pmtimer which I grabbed out of the dump), Pentium class machines and AMD/Intel 64 bit boxen.

Breaking lines due to some imaginary problem with a long line length is often stupid and wrong, but never more so when it splits a string that is printed out into multiple lines. This really ended up making it much harder to find where some error strings were printed out, because a simple 'grep' didn't work. I'm sure there is tons more of this particular idiocy hiding in other places, but this particular case hit me once more last week. So fix it.

This reverts commit a2bd7274. It wasn't really right to begin with (there's a better fix for the problem with e820 reservations clashing with PCI BAR's pending), but it also actually causes more regressions, so it should be reverted even before the better fix is finalized. Rafael reports that this commit broke AHCI detection, and thus causes the kernel to not boot on his quad core test box. Reported-and-bisected-by: NRafael J.

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 fixes a regression that was indirectly caused by commit 1184dc2f ("x86: modify Kconfig to allow up to 4096 cpus"). Allowing 4k CPU's is not practical at this time, because we still have a number of places that have several 'cpumask_t's on the stack, and a 4k-bit cpumask is 512 bytes of stack-space for each such variable. This literally caused functions like 'smp_call_function_mask' to have a 2.5kB stack frame, and several functions to have 2kB stackframes. With an 8kB stack total, smashing the stack was simply much too likely. At least bugzilla entry http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11342 was due to this. The earlier commit to not inline load_module() into sys_init_module() fixed the particular symptoms of this that Alan Brunelle saw in that bugzilla entry, but the huge stack waste by cpumask_t's was the more direct cause. Some day we'll have allocation helpers that allocate large CPU masks dynamically, but in the meantime we simply cannot allow cpumasks this large. Cc: Alan D.

由 Yinghai Lu 提交于
David Witbrodt tracked down (and bisected) a hpet bootup hang on his system to the following problem: a BIOS bug made the hpet device visible as a generic PCI device. If e820 reserved entries happen to be registered first in the resource tree [which v2.6.26 started doing], then the PCI code will reallocate that device's BAR to some other address - breaking timer IRQs and hanging the system. ( Normally hpet devices are hidden by the BIOS from the OS's PCI discovery via chipset magic. Sometimes the hpet is not a PCI device at all. ) Solve this fundamental fragility by making non-PCI platform drivers insert resources into the resource tree even if it overlaps the e820 reserved entry, to keep the resource manager from updating the BAR. Also do these checks for the ioapic and mmconfig addresses, and emit a warning if this happens.

During CPU hot-remove the sysfs directory created by threshold_create_bank(), defined in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_amd_64.c, has to be removed before its parent directory, created by mce_create_device(), defined in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_64.c . Moreover, when the CPU in question is hotplugged again, obviously the latter has to be created before the former. At present, the right ordering is not enforced, because all of these operations are carried out by CPU hotplug notifiers which are not appropriately ordered with respect to each other. This leads to serious problems on systems with two or more multicore AMD CPUs, among other things during suspend and hibernation. Fix the problem by placing threshold bank CPU hotplug callbacks in mce_cpu_callback(), so that they are invoked at the right places, if defined. Additionally, use kobject_del() to remove the sysfs directory associated with the kobject created by kobject_create_and_add() in threshold_create_bank(), to prevent the kernel from crashing during CPU hotplug operations on systems with two or more multicore AMD CPUs.
