      vfs: make word-at-a-time accesses handle a non-existing page · e419b4cc
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      It turns out that there are more cases than CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC that
      can have holes in the kernel address space: it seems to happen easily
      with Xen, and it looks like the AMD gart64 code will also punch holes
      dynamically.
      
      Actually hitting that case is still very unlikely, so just do the
      access, and take an exception and fix it up for the very unlikely case
      of it being a page-crosser with no next page.
      
      And hey, this abstraction might even help other architectures that have
      other issues with unaligned word accesses than the possible missing next
      page.  IOW, this could do the byte order magic too.
      
      Peter Anvin fixed a thinko in the shifting for the exception case.

      x86/amd: Re-enable CPU topology extensions in case BIOS has disabled it · f7f286a9
      Andreas Herrmann 提交于
      BIOS will switch off the corresponding feature flag on family
      15h models 10h-1fh non-desktop CPUs.
      
      The topology extension CPUID leafs are required to detect which
      cores belong to the same compute unit. (thread siblings mask is
      set accordingly and also correct information about L1i and L2
      cache sharing depends on this).
      
      W/o this patch we wouldn't see which cores belong to the same
      compute unit and also cache sharing information for L1i and L2
      would be incorrect on such systems.

      xen/smp: Fix crash when booting with ACPI hotplug CPUs. · cf405ae6
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于
      When we boot on a machine that can hotplug CPUs and we
      are using 'dom0_max_vcpus=X' on the Xen hypervisor line
      to clip the amount of CPUs available to the initial domain,
      we get this:

      In the future, if there is a hypercall that will allow a running
      domain to expand past its initial set of vCPUS, this patch should
      be re-evaluated.

      xen/enlighten: Disable MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded. · df88b2d9
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于
      There are exactly four users of __monitor and __mwait:
      
       - cstate.c (which allows acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter to be called
         when the cpuidle API drivers are used. However patch
         "cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle"
         provides a mechanism to disable the cpuidle and use safe_halt.
       - smpboot (which allows mwait_play_dead to be called). However
         safe_halt is always used so we skip that.
       - intel_idle (same deal as above).
       - acpi_pad.c. This the one that we do not want to run as we
         will hit the below crash.
      
      Why do we want to expose MWAIT_LEAF in the first place?
      We want it for the xen-acpi-processor driver - which uploads
      C-states to the hypervisor. If MWAIT_LEAF is set, the cstate.c
      sets the proper address in the C-states so that the hypervisor
      can benefit from using the MWAIT functionality. And that is
      the sole reason for using it.
      
      Without this patch, if a module performs mwait or monitor we
      get this:
