When adding cpuidle support to pSeries, we introduced two regressions: - The new cpuidle backend driver only works under hypervisors supporting the "SLPLAR" option, which isn't the case of the old POWER4 hypervisor and the HV "light" used on js2x blades - The cpuidle driver registers fairly late, meaning that for a significant portion of the boot process, we end up having all threads spinning. This slows down the boot process and increases the overall resource usage if the hypervisor has shared processors. This fixes both by implementing a "default" idle that will cede to the hypervisor when possible, in a very simple way without all the bells and whisles of cpuidle.

Before this patch we would patch all of the pv_lock_ops sites using alternative assembler. Then later in the bootup cycle change the unlock_kick and lock_spinning to the Xen specific - without re patching. That meant that for the core of the kernel we would be running with the baremetal version of unlock_kick and lock_spinning while for modules we would have the proper Xen specific slowpaths. As most of the module uses some API from the core kernel that ended up with slowpath lockers waiting forever to be kicked (b/c they would be using the Xen specific slowpath logic). And the kick never came b/c the unlock path that was taken was the baremetal one. On PV we do not have the problem as we initialise before the alternative code kicks in. The fix is to make the updating of the pv_lock_ops function be done before the alternative code starts patching. Note that this patch fixes issues discovered by commit f10cd522. ("xen: disable PV spinlocks on HVM") wherein it mentioned PV spinlocks cannot possibly work with the current code because they are enabled after pvops patching has already been done, and because PV spinlocks use a different data structure than native spinlocks so we cannot switch between them dynamically. The first problem is solved by this patch. The second problem has been solved by commit 816434ec (Merge branch 'x86-spinlocks-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip) P.S. There is still the commit 70dd4998 (xen/spinlock: Disable IRQ spinlock (PV) allocation on PVHVM) to revert but that can be done later after all other bugs have been fixed.

The xen_lock_spinning has a check for the kicker interrupts and if it is not initialized it will spin normally (not enter the slowpath). But for PVHVM case we would initialize the kicker interrupt before the CPU came online. This meant that if the booting CPU used a spinlock and went in the slowpath - it would enter the slowpath and block forever. The forever part because during bootup: the spinlock would be taken _before_ the CPU sets itself to be online (more on this further), and we enter to poll on the event channel forever. The bootup CPU (see commit fc78d343 "xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU online" for details) and the CPU that started the bootup consult the cpu_online_mask to determine whether the booting CPU should get an IPI. The booting CPU has to set itself in this mask via: set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true); However, if the spinlock is taken before this (and it is) and it polls on an event channel - it will never be woken up as the kernel will never send an IPI to an offline CPU. Note that the PVHVM logic in sending IPIs is using the HVM path which has numerous checks using the cpu_online_mask and cpu_active_mask. See above mention git commit for details.

m2p_remove_override() calls get_balloon_scratch_page() in MULTI_update_va_mapping() even though it already has pointer to this page from the earlier call (in scratch_page). This second call doesn't have a matching put_balloon_scratch_page() thus not restoring preempt count back. (Also, there is no put_balloon_scratch_page() in the error path.)

Change the hash algorithm a bit so it produces only values in the range of 0..31. This allows to reduce the size of the external interrupt handler hash array even further while making sure that each of the known interrupt sources keeps its unique hash with the slightly modified algorithm: 0x1004 --> 12 0x1201 --> 10 0x1202 --> 11 0x1406 --> 16 0x1407 --> 17 0x2401 --> 19 0x2603 --> 22 0x4000 --> 0 This also means that the entire array now fits into exactly one cache line; so add a proper align statement as well.

The macrology in cmpxchg.h was designed to allow arbitrary pointer and integer values to be passed through the routines. To support cmpxchg() on 64-bit values on the 32-bit tilepro architecture, we used the idiom "(typeof(val))(typeof(val-val))". This way, in the "size 8" branch of the switch, when the underlying cmpxchg routine returns a 64-bit quantity, we cast it first to a typeof(val-val) quantity (i.e. size_t if "val" is a pointer) with no warnings about casting between pointers and integers of different sizes, then cast onwards to typeof(val), again with no warnings. If val is not a pointer type, the additional cast is a no-op. We can't replace the typeof(val-val) cast with (for example) unsigned long, since then if "val" is really a 64-bit type, we cast away the high bits. HOWEVER, this fails with current gcc (through 4.7 at least) if "val" is a pointer to an incomplete type. Unfortunately gcc isn't smart enough to realize that "val - val" will always be a size_t type even if it's an incomplete type pointer. Accordingly, I've reworked the way we handle the casting. We have given up the ability to use cmpxchg() on 64-bit values on tilepro, which is OK in the kernel since we should use cmpxchg64() explicitly on such values anyway. As a result, I can just use simple "unsigned long" casts internally. As I reworked it, I realized it would be cleaner to move the architecture-specific conditionals for cmpxchg and xchg out of the atomic.h headers and into cmpxchg, and then use the cmpxchg() and xchg() primitives directly in atomic.h and elsewhere. This allowed the cmpxchg.h header to stand on its own without relying on the implicit include of it that is performed by <asm/atomic.h>. It also allowed collapsing the atomic_xchg/atomic_cmpxchg routines from atomic_{32,64}.h into atomic.h. I improved the tests that guard the allowed size of the arguments to the routines to use a __compiletime_error() test. (By avoiding the use of BUILD_BUG, I could include cmpxchg.h into bitops.h as well and use the macros there, which is otherwise impossible due to include order dependency issues.) The tilepro _atomic_xxx internal methods were previously set up to take atomic_t and atomic64_t arguments, which isn't as convenient with the new model, so I modified them to take int or u64 arguments, which is consistent with how they used the arguments internally anyway, so provided some nice simplification there too.
