This is needed for large multinode IBM systems which have a sparse APIC space in clustered mode, fully covering the available 8 bits. The previous kernels would limit the local APIC number to 127, which caused it to reject some of the CPUs at boot. I increased the maximum and shrunk the apic_version array a bit to make up for that (the version is only 8 bit, so don't need an full int to store) Cc: Chris McDermott <lcm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Keeping this function does not makes sense because it's a copied (and buggy) copy of sys_time. The only difference is that now.tv_sec (which is a time_t, i.e. a 64-bit long) is copied (and truncated) into a int (32-bit). The prototype is the same (they both take a long __user *), so let's drop this and redirect it to sys_time (and make sure it exists by defining __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME). Only disadvantage is that the sys_stime definition is also compiled (may be fixed if needed by adding a separate __ARCH_WANT_SYS_STIME macro, and defining it for all arch's defining __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME except x86_64).

The current value was correct before the introduction of Intel EM64T support - but now L1_CACHE_SHIFT_MAX can be less than L1_CACHE_SHIFT, which _is_ funny! Between the few users of ____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp, we also have (for example) rcu_ctrlblk, and struct zone, with zone->{lru_,}lock. I.e. we have a lot of excess cacheline bouncing on them. No correctness issues, obviously. So this could even be merged for 2.6.14 (I'm not a fan of this idea, though).

Fields obtained through cpuid vector 0x1(ebx[16:23]) and vector 0x4(eax[14:25], eax[26:31]) indicate the maximum values and might not always be the same as what is available and what OS sees. So make sure "siblings" and "cpu cores" values in /proc/cpuinfo reflect the values as seen by OS instead of what cpuid instruction says. This will also fix the buggy BIOS cases (for example where cpuid on a single core cpu says there are "2" siblings, even when HT is disabled in the BIOS. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4359) Signed-off-by: NSuresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

With a NR_CPUS==128 kernel with CPU hotplug enabled we would waste 4MB on per CPU data of all possible CPUs. The reason was that HOTPLUG always set up possible map to NR_CPUS cpus and then we need to allocate that much (each per CPU data is roughly ~32k now) The underlying problem is that ACPI didn't tell us how many hotplug CPUs the platform supports. So the old code just assumed all, which would lead to this memory wastage. This implements some new heuristics: - If the BIOS specified disabled CPUs in the ACPI/mptables assume they can be enabled later (this is bending the ACPI specification a bit, but seems like a obvious extension) - The user can overwrite it with a new additionals_cpus=NUM option - Otherwise use half of the available CPUs or 2, whatever is more.

We should zap the low mappings, as soon as possible, so that we can catch kernel bugs more effectively. Previously early boot had NULL mapped and didn't trap on NULL references. This patch introduces boot_level4_pgt, which will always have low identity addresses mapped. Druing boot, all the processors will use this as their level4 pgt. On BP, we will switch to init_level4_pgt as soon as we enter C code and zap the low mappings as soon as we are done with the usage of identity low mapped addresses. On AP's we will zap the low mappings as soon as we jump to C code.

Here's a patch that builds on Natalie Protasevich's IRQ compression patch and tries to work for MPS boots as well as ACPI. It is meant for a 4-node IBM x460 NUMA box, which was dying because it had interrupt pins with GSI numbers > NR_IRQS and thus overflowed irq_desc. The problem is that this system has 270 GSIs (which are 1:1 mapped with I/O APIC RTEs) and an 8-node box would have 540. This is much bigger than NR_IRQS (224 for both i386 and x86_64). Also, there aren't enough vectors to go around. There are about 190 usable vectors, not counting the reserved ones and the unused vectors at 0x20 to 0x2F. So, my patch attempts to compress the GSI range and share vectors by sharing IRQs.

Add a new 4GB GFP_DMA32 zone between the GFP_DMA and GFP_NORMAL zones. As a bit of historical background: when the x86-64 port was originally designed we had some discussion if we should use a 16MB DMA zone like i386 or a 4GB DMA zone like IA64 or both. Both was ruled out at this point because it was in early 2.4 when VM is still quite shakey and had bad troubles even dealing with one DMA zone. We settled on the 16MB DMA zone mainly because we worried about older soundcards and the floppy. But this has always caused problems since then because device drivers had trouble getting enough DMA able memory. These days the VM works much better and the wide use of NUMA has proven it can deal with many zones successfully. So this patch adds both zones. This helps drivers who need a lot of memory below 4GB because their hardware is not accessing more (graphic drivers - proprietary and free ones, video frame buffer drivers, sound drivers etc.). Previously they could only use IOMMU+16MB GFP_DMA, which was not enough memory. Another common problem is that hardware who has full memory addressing for >4GB misses it for some control structures in memory (like transmit rings or other metadata). They tended to allocate memory in the 16MB GFP_DMA or the IOMMU/swiotlb then using pci_alloc_consistent, but that can tie up a lot of precious 16MB GFPDMA/IOMMU/swiotlb memory (even on AMD systems the IOMMU tends to be quite small) especially if you have many devices. With the new zone pci_alloc_consistent can just put this stuff into memory below 4GB which works better. One argument was still if the zone should be 4GB or 2GB. The main motivation for 2GB would be an unnamed not so unpopular hardware raid controller (mostly found in older machines from a particular four letter company) who has a strange 2GB restriction in firmware. But that one works ok with swiotlb/IOMMU anyways, so it doesn't really need GFP_DMA32. I chose 4GB to be compatible with IA64 and because it seems to be the most common restriction. The new zone is so far added only for x86-64. For other architectures who don't set up this new zone nothing changes. Architectures can set a compatibility define in Kconfig CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32 that will define GFP_DMA32 as GFP_DMA. Otherwise it's a nop because on 32bit architectures it's normally not needed because GFP_NORMAL (=0) is DMA able enough. One problem is still that GFP_DMA means different things on different architectures. e.g. some drivers used to have #ifdef ia64 use GFP_DMA (trusting it to be 4GB) #elif __x86_64__ (use other hacks like the swiotlb because 16MB is not enough) ... . This was quite ugly and is now obsolete. These should be now converted to use GFP_DMA32 unconditionally. I haven't done this yet. Or best only use pci_alloc_consistent/dma_alloc_coherent which will use GFP_DMA32 transparently. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
