Add AMD prefetch and 3DNow! opcode including FEMMS. Since 3DNow! uses the last immediate byte as an opcode extension byte, x86 insn just treats the extenstion byte as an immediate byte instead of a part of opcode (insn_get_opcode() decodes first "0x0f 0x0f" bytes.) Users who are interested in analyzing 3DNow! opcode still can decode it by analyzing the immediate byte.

cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code. cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there, but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking. This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on all modern systems. Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

Add x86 instruction decoder to arch-specific libraries. This decoder can decode x86 instructions used in kernel into prefix, opcode, modrm, sib, displacement and immediates. This can also show the length of instructions. This version introduces instruction attributes for decoding instructions. The instruction attribute tables are generated from the opcode map file (x86-opcode-map.txt) by the generator script(gen-insn-attr-x86.awk). Currently, the opcode maps are based on opcode maps in Intel(R) 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developers Manual Vol.2: Appendix.A, and consist of below two types of opcode tables. 1-byte/2-bytes/3-bytes opcodes, which has 256 elements, are written as below; Table: table-name Referrer: escaped-name opcode: mnemonic|GrpXXX [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...] (or) opcode: escape # escaped-name EndTable Group opcodes, which has 8 elements, are written as below; GrpTable: GrpXXX reg: mnemonic [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...] EndTable These opcode maps include a few SSE and FP opcodes (for setup), because those opcodes are used in the kernel.

Linus noticed that the 32-bit version of atomic64_read() was being overly complex with re-reading the value and doing a retry loop over that. Instead we can just rely on cmpxchg8b returning either the new value or returning the current value. We can use any 'old' value, which will be faster as it can be loaded via immediates. Using some value that is not equal to the real value in memory the instruction gets faster. This also has the advantage that the CPU could avoid dirtying the cacheline.

Linus noted that the atomic64_t primitives are all inlines currently which is crazy because these functions have a large register footprint anyway. Move them to a separate file: arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c Also, while at it, rename all uses of 'unsigned long long' to the much shorter u64. This makes the appearance of the prototypes a lot nicer - and it also uncovered a few bugs where (yet unused) API variants had 'long' as their return type instead of u64.

Noticed the zero-sized function symbol while looking at 'perf' profiles, it causes the profiler to display those addresses in hexa. Turns out that this was wrong/bogus for an eternity.

The discussion about using "access_ok()" in get_user_pages_fast() (see commit 7f818906: "x86: don't use 'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()" for details and end result), made us notice that x86-64 was really being very sloppy about virtual address checking. So be way more careful and straightforward about masking x86-64 virtual addresses: - All the VIRTUAL_MASK* variants now cover half of the address space, it's not like we can use the full mask on a signed integer, and the larger mask just invites mistakes when applying it to either half of the 48-bit address space. - /proc/kcore's kc_offset_to_vaddr() becomes a lot more obvious when it transforms a file offset into a (kernel-half) virtual address. - Unify/simplify the 32-bit and 64-bit USER_DS definition to be based on TASK_SIZE_MAX. This cleanup and more careful/obvious user virtual address checking also uncovered a buglet in the x86-64 implementation of strnlen_user(): it would do an "access_ok()" check on the whole potential area, even if the string itself was much shorter, and thus return an error even for valid strings. Our sloppy checking had hidden this. So this fixes 'strnlen_user()' to do this properly, the same way we already handled user strings in 'strncpy_from_user()'. Namely by just checking the first byte, and then relying on fault handling for the rest. That always works, since we impose a guard page that cannot be mapped at the end of the user space address space (and even if we didn't, we'd have the address space hole).

Impact: fix rare (but currently harmless) miscompile with certain configs and gcc versions Hugh Dickins noticed that strncpy_from_user() was miscompiled in some circumstances with gcc 4.3. Thanks to Hugh's excellent analysis it was easy to track down.

The asm constraints for the strncpy_from_user() result were missing an early clobber, which tells gcc that the last output arguments are written before all input arguments are read. Also add more early clobbers in the rest of the file and fix 32-bit usercopy.c in the same way. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> [ since this API is rarely used and no in-kernel user relies on a 'len' return value (they only rely on negative return values) this miscompile was never noticed in the field. But it's worth fixing it nevertheless. ] Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
