Rename genapic-> to apic-> references because in a future chagne we'll open-code all the indirect calls (instead of obscuring them via macros), so we want this reference to be as short as possible. Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: re-enable CPUID unmasking on affected processors As far as I am capable of discerning from the documentation, MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE should be available for all family 0xf CPUs, as well as family 6 for model >= 0xd (newer Pentium M). The documentation on this isn't ideal, so we need to be on the lookout for errors, still. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

The current version of __raw_read_trylock starts with decrementing the lock and read its new value as a separate operation after that. That makes 3 dereferences (read, write (after sub), read) whereas a single atomic_dec_return does only two pointers dereferences (read, write).

Impact: fix boot hang on pre-model-15 Intel CPUs rdmsrl_safe() does not work in very early bootup code yet, because we dont have the pagefault handler installed yet so exception section does not get parsed. rdmsr_safe() will just crash and hang the bootup. So limit the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR read to those CPU types that support it. Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

In the absence of PAT, PAGE_KERNEL_WC ends up mapping to a memory type that gets UC behavior even in the presence of a WC MTRR covering the area in question. By swapping to PAGE_KERNEL_UC_MINUS, we can get the actual behavior the caller wanted (WC if you can manage it, UC otherwise). This recovers the 40% performance improvement of using WC in the DRM to upload vertex data. Signed-off-by: NEric Anholt <eric@anholt.net> Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

the RDC and ELAN platforms use slighly different PIT clocks, resulting in a timex.h hack that changes PIT_TICK_RATE during build time. But if a tester enables any of these platform support .config options, the PIT will be miscalibrated on standard PC platforms. So use one frequency - in a subsequent patch we'll add a quirk to allow x86 platforms to define different PIT frequencies. Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: Fixes potential crashes on misconfigured systems. Some CPU features require specific CPUID levels to be available in order to function, as they contain information about the operation of a specific feature. However, some BIOSes and virtualization software provide the ability to mask CPUID levels in order to support legacy operating systems. We try to enable such CPUID levels when we know how to do it, but for the remaining cases, filter out such CPU features when there is no way for us to support them. Do this in one place, in the CPUID code, with a table-driven approach. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>

Impact: Cleanup When PAT was originally introduced, it was handled specially for a few reasons: - PAT bugs are hard to track down, so we wanted to maintain a whitelist of CPUs. - The i386 and x86-64 CPUID code was not yet unified. Both of these are now obsolete, so handle PAT like any other features, including ordinary feature blacklisting due to known bugs. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>

Impact: introduce new uaccess exception handling framework Introduce {get|put}_user_try and {get|put}_user_catch as new uaccess exception handling framework. {get|put}_user_try begins exception block and {get|put}_user_catch(err) ends the block and gets err if an exception occured in {get|put}_user_ex() in the block. The exception is stored thread_info->uaccess_err. The example usage of this framework is below; int func() { int err = 0; get_user_try { get_user_ex(...); get_user_ex(...); : } get_user_catch(err); return err; } Note: get_user_ex() is not clear the value when an exception occurs, it's different from the behavior of __get_user(), but I think it doesn't matter.

This is due to pgtable_page_ctor() doing the spin_lock_init(&page->ptl) which is overlaid with the {private, mapping} struct. union { struct { unsigned long private; struct address_space *mapping; }; spinlock_t ptl; struct kmem_cache *slab; struct page *first_page; }; Normally the spinlock is small enough to not stomp on page->mapping, but PREEMPT_RT=y has huge 'spin'locks. But lockdep kernels should also be able to trigger this splat, as the lock tracking code grows the spinlock to cover page->mapping. The obvious fix is calling pgtable_page_dtor() like the regular pte free path __pte_free_tlb() does. It seems all architectures except x86 and nm10300 already do this, and nm10300 doesn't seem to use pgtable_page_ctor(), which suggests it doesn't do SMP or simply doesnt do MMU at all or something.
