For additional coverage, BorisO and friends unknowlingly did swap AMD
microcode with Intel microcode blobs in order to see what happens. What
did happen on 32-bit was

[    5.722656] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at be3a6008
[    5.722693] IP: [<c106d6b4>] load_microcode_amd+0x24/0x3f0
[    5.722716] *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000

because there was a valid initrd there but without valid microcode in it
and the container check happened *after* the relocated ramdisk handling
on 32-bit, which was clearly wrong.

While at it, take care of the ramdisk relocation on both 32- and 64-bit
as it is done on both. Also, comment what we're doing because this code
is a bit tricky.

Commit d61931d8, "x86: Add optimized popcnt variants" introduced
compile flag -fcall-saved-rdi for lib/hweight.c. When combined with
options -fprofile-arcs and -O2, this flag causes gcc to generate
broken constructor code. As a result, a 64 bit x86 kernel compiled
with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y prints message "gcov: could not create
file" and runs into sproadic BUGs during boot.

The gcc people indicate that these kinds of problems are endemic when
using ad hoc calling conventions.  It is therefore best to treat any
file compiled with ad hoc calling conventions as an isolated
environment and avoid things like profiling or coverage analysis,
since those subsystems assume a "normal" calling conventions.

This patch avoids the bug by excluding lib/hweight.o from coverage
profiling.

With DISCONTIGMEM, the mapping between a pfn and its owning node is
initialized using data provided by the BIOS. However, the initialization
may fail if the extents are not aligned to section boundary (64M).

The symptom of this bug is an early boot failure in pfn_to_page(),
as it tries to access NODE_DATA(__nid) using index from an unitialized
element of the physnode_map[] array.

While the bug is always present, it is more likely to be hit in kdump
kernels on large machines, because:

1. The memory map for a kdump kernel is specified as exactmap, and
   exactmap is more likely to be unaligned.

2. Large reservations are more likely to span across a 64M boundary.

This patch fixes the following warning:

  warning: (X86_INTEL_MID) selects INTEL_SCU_IPC which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && X86_INTEL_MID)

It happens because when selected, X86_INTEL_MID tries to select
INTEL_SCU_IPC regardless all its dependencies are met or not.

This patch fixes it by adding the missing X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES
dependency to X86_INTEL_MID.

When ACPI SLIT table has an I/O locality (i.e. a locality
unique to an I/O device), numa_set_distance() emits this warning
message:

 NUMA: Warning: node ids are out of bound, from=-1 to=-1 distance=10

acpi_numa_slit_init() calls numa_set_distance() with
pxm_to_node(), which assumes that all localities have been
parsed with SRAT previously.  SRAT does not list I/O localities,
where as SLIT lists all localities including I/Os.  Hence,
pxm_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE (-1) for an I/O locality.

I/O localities are not supported and are ignored today, but emitting
such warning message leads to unnecessary confusion.

Change acpi_numa_slit_init() to avoid calling
numa_set_distance() with NUMA_NO_NODE.

There was a large ebizzy performance regression that was
bisected to commit 611ae8e3 (x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range
support for x86).  The problem was related to the
tlb_flushall_shift tuning for IvyBridge which was altered.  The
problem is that it is not clear if the tuning values for each
CPU family is correct as the methodology used to tune the values
is unclear.

This patch uses a conservative tlb_flushall_shift value for all
CPU families except IvyBridge so the decision can be revisited
if any regression is found as a result of this change.
IvyBridge is an exception as testing with one methodology
determined that the value of 2 is acceptable.  Details are in
the changelog for the patch "x86: mm: Change tlb_flushall_shift
for IvyBridge".

One important aspect of this to watch out for is Xen.  The
original commit log mentioned large performance gains on Xen.
It's possible Xen is more sensitive to this value if it flushes
small ranges of pages more frequently than workloads on bare
metal typically do.

between a local and global flush for IvyBridge.

In the interest of allowing the tests to be reproduced, this
patch was tested using mmtests 0.15 with the following
configurations

	configs/config-global-dhp__tlbflush-performance
	configs/config-global-dhp__scheduler-performance

Ivybridge   8 threads:  Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz

Page fault microbenchmark showed nothing interesting.

Ebizzy was configured to run multiple iterations and threads.
Thread counts ranged from 1 to NR_CPUS*2. For each thread count,
it ran 100 iterations and each iteration lasted 10 seconds.

Ebizzy hits the worst case scenario for TLB range flushing every
time and it shows for these Ivybridge CPUs at least that the
default choice is a poor on.  The patch addresses the problem.

Next was a tlbflush microbenchmark written by Alex Shi at
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133727348217113 .  It
measures access costs while the TLB is being flushed.  The
expectation is that if there are always full TLB flushes that
the benchmark would suffer and it benefits from range flushing

There are 320 iterations of the test per thread count.  The
number of entries is randomly selected with a min of 1 and max
of 512.  To ensure a reasonably even spread of entries, the full
range is broken up into 8 sections and a random number selected
within that section.

iteration 1, random number between 0-64
iteration 2, random number between 64-128 etc

This is still a very weak methodology.  When you do not know
what are typical ranges, random is a reasonable choice but it
can be easily argued that the opimisation was for smaller ranges
and an even spread is not representative of any workload that
matters.  To improve this, we'd need to know the probability
distribution of TLB flush range sizes for a set of workloads
that are considered "common", build a synthetic trace and feed
that into this benchmark.  Even that is not perfect because it
would not account for the time between flushes but there are
limits of what can be reasonably done and still be doing
something useful.  If a representative synthetic trace is
provided then this benchmark could be revisited and the shift values retuned.

Mean       16       40.05 (  0.00%)       39.04 (  2.51%)

For both CPUs, average access time is reduced which is good as
this is the benchmark that was used to tune the shift values in
the first place albeit it is now known *how* the benchmark was
used.

The scheduler benchmarks were somewhat inconclusive.  They
showed gains and losses and makes me reconsider how stable those
benchmarks really are or if something else might be interfering
with the test results recently.

Network benchmarks were inconclusive.  Almost all results were
flat except for netperf-udp tests on the 4 thread machine.
These results were unstable and showed large variations between
reboots.  It is unknown if this is a recent problems but I've
noticed before that netperf-udp results tend to vary.

Based on these results, changing the default for Ivybridge seems
like a logical choice.

When choosing between doing an address space or ranged flush,
the x86 implementation of flush_tlb_mm_range takes into account
whether there are any large pages in the range.  A per-page
flush typically requires fewer entries than would covered by a
single large page and the check is redundant.

There is one potential exception.  THP migration flushes single
THP entries and it conceivably would benefit from flushing a
single entry instead of the mm.  However, this flush is after a
THP allocation, copy and page table update potentially with any
other threads serialised behind it.  In comparison to that, the
flush is noise.  It makes more sense to optimise balancing to
require fewer flushes than to optimise the flush itself.

This patch deletes the redundant huge page check.

The workaround for this Erratum is included in AGESA. But BIOSes
spun only after Jan2014 will have the fix (atleast server
versions of the chip). The erratum affects both embedded and
server platforms and since we cannot say with certainity that
ALL BIOSes on systems out in the field will have the fix, we
should probably insulate ourselves in case BIOS does not do the
right thing or someone is using old BIOSes.

 "Kernel side changes:

   - Add Intel RAPL energy counter support (Stephane Eranian)
   - Clean up uprobes (Oleg Nesterov)
   - Optimize ring-buffer writes (Peter Zijlstra)

  Tooling side changes, user visible:

   - 'perf diff':
     - Add column colouring improvements (Ramkumar Ramachandra)

  - 'perf kvm':
     - Add guest related improvements, including allowing to specify a
       directory with guest specific /proc information (Dongsheng Yang)
     - Add shell completion support (Ramkumar Ramachandra)
     - Add '-v' option (Dongsheng Yang)
     - Support --guestmount (Dongsheng Yang)

   - 'perf probe':
     - Support showing source code, asking for variables to be collected
       at probe time and other 'perf probe' operations that use DWARF
       information.

       This supports only binaries with debugging information at this
       time, detached debuginfo (aka debuginfo packages) support should
       come in later patches (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - 'perf record':
     - Rename --no-delay option to --no-buffering, better reflecting its
       purpose and freeing up '--delay' to take the place of
       '--initial-delay', so that 'record' and 'stat' are consistent
       (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
     - Default the -t/--thread option to no inheritance (Adrian Hunter)
     - Make per-cpu mmaps the default (Adrian Hunter)

   - 'perf report':

       --header option in the stdio UI (Namhyung Kim)

   - 'perf script':
     - Add an option in 'perf script' to print the source line number
       (Adrian Hunter)
     - Add --header/--header-only options to 'script' and 'report', the
       default is not tho show the header info, but as this has been the
       default for some time, leave a single line explaining how to
       obtain that information (Jiri Olsa)
     - Add options to show comm, fork, exit and mmap PERF_RECORD_ events
       (Namhyung Kim)
     - Print callchains and symbols if they exist (David Ahern)

   - 'perf top':
     - Make 'perf top -g' refer to callchains, for consistency with
       other tools (David Ahern)

     - Handle old kernels where the "raw_syscalls" tracepoints were
       called plain "syscalls" (David Ahern)
     - Remove thread summary coloring, by Pekka Enberg.
     - Honour -m option in 'trace', the tool was offering the option to
       set the mmap size, but wasn't using it when doing the actual mmap
       on the events file descriptors (Jiri Olsa)

   - generic:
     - Backport libtraceevent plugin support (trace-cmd repository, with
       plugins for jbd2, hrtimer, kmem, kvm, mac80211, sched_switch,
       function, xen, scsi, cfg80211 (Jiri Olsa)
     - Print session information only if --stdio is given (Namhyung Kim)

  Tooling side changes, developer visible (plumbing):

   - Improve 'perf probe' exit path, release resources (Masami
     Hiramatsu)
   - Improve libtraceevent plugins exit path, allowing the registering
     of an unregister handler to be called at exit time (Namhyung Kim)

     tested in the host and then being enabled on the target (Mark
     Rutland)
   - Improve forked workload error reporting by sending the errno in the
     signal data queueing integer field, using sigqueue and by doing the
     signal setup in the evlist methods, removing open coded equivalents
     in various tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
   - Do more auto exit cleanup chores in the 'evlist' destructor, so
     that the tools don't have to all do that sequence (Arnaldo Carvalho
     de Melo)
   - Pack 'struct perf_session_env' and 'struct trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho
     de Melo)
   - Add test for building detached source tarballs (Arnaldo Carvalho de
     Melo)
   - Move some header files (tools/perf/ to tools/include/ to make them
     available to other tools/ dwelling codebases (Namhyung Kim)

     'inject' (Jiri Olsa)
   - Use pr_*() functions where applicable in 'report' (Namhyumg Kim)
   - Add 'machine' 'addr_location' struct to have full picture (machine,
     thread, map, symbol, addr) for a (partially) resolved address,
     reducing function signatures (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
   - Reduce code duplication in the histogram entry creation/insertion
     (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
   - Auto allocate annotation histogram data structures (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

     memory in struct pointers to NULL, to help fixing use after free
     bugs (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
   - Rename some struct DSO binary_type related members and methods, to
     clarify its purpose and need for differentiation (symtab_type, ie
     one is about the files .text, CFI, etc, i.e.  its binary contents,
     and the other is about where the symbol table came from (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)
   - Convert to new topic libraries, starting with an API one (sysfs,
     debugfs, etc), renaming liblk in the process (Borislav Petkov)
   - Get rid of some more panic() like error handling in libtraceevent.
     (Namhyung Kim)
   - Get rid of panic() like calls in libtraceevent (Namyung Kim)
   - Start carving out symbol parsing routines (perf, just moving
     routines to topic files in tools/lib/symbol/, tools that want to
     use it need to integrate it directly, ie no
     tools/lib/symbol/Makefile is provided (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
   - Assorted refactoring patches, moving code around and adding utility
     evlist methods that will be used in the IPT patchset (Adrian
     Hunter)

  distros that generally want their kernel defaults to come with the
  .config.

  CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT defaults to 0, which was the previous default
