If we encounter an efi_memory_desc_t without EFI_MEMORY_WB set in ->attribute we currently call set_memory_uc(), which in turn calls __pa() on a potentially ioremap'd address. On CONFIG_X86_32 this is invalid, resulting in the following oops on some machines: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f7f22280 IP: [<c10257b9>] reserve_ram_pages_type+0x89/0x210 [...] Call Trace: [<c104f8ca>] ? page_is_ram+0x1a/0x40 [<c1025aff>] reserve_memtype+0xdf/0x2f0 [<c1024dc9>] set_memory_uc+0x49/0xa0 [<c19334d0>] efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x1c2/0x3aa [<c19216d4>] start_kernel+0x291/0x2f2 [<c19211c7>] ? loglevel+0x1b/0x1b [<c19210bf>] i386_start_kernel+0xbf/0xc8 A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache(). Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in the following bug report, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516 Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows us to delete efi_ioremap() completely. Signed-off-by: NMatt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Cc: H.

由 Mark Langsdorf 提交于
When HPET is operating in RTC mode, the TN_ENABLE bit on timer1 controls whether the HPET or the RTC delivers interrupts to irq8. When the system goes into suspend, the RTC driver sends a signal to the HPET driver so that the HPET releases control of irq8, allowing the RTC to wake the system from suspend. The switchover is accomplished by a write to the HPET configuration registers which currently only occurs while servicing the HPET interrupt. On some systems, I have seen the system suspend before an HPET interrupt occurs, preventing the write to the HPET configuration register and leaving the HPET in control of the irq8. As the HPET is not active during suspend, it does not generate a wake signal and RTC alarms do not work. This patch forces the HPET driver to immediately transfer control of the irq8 channel to the RTC instead of waiting until the next interrupt event.

Fix an outstanding issue that has been reported since 2.6.37.

Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has not been set. Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses 'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go away. Interestingly, commit b8bcfe99 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario.

Following is from Notes of section 11.5.3 of Intel processor manual available at: http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/manual/325384.pdf For the Pentium 4 and Intel Xeon processors, after the sequence of steps given above has been executed, the cache lines containing the code between the end of the WBINVD instruction and before the MTRRS have actually been disabled may be retained in the cache hierarchy. Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have been disabled. This patch provides resolution for that. Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it. And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other processors.

In commit f8924e77 ("x86: unify mp_bus_info"), the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each other better. Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit, then clear it if we found a PCI bus. After it, we set mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave it alone otherwise. In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference. But ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI. Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the "noapic" option is supplied. With this change, the machine boots reliably without "noapic".

On AMD family 10h we see firmware bug messages like the following: [Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x10400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu [Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, IBS interrupt offset 0 not available (MSRC001103A=0x0000000000000100) [Firmware Bug]: using offset 1 for IBS interrupts [Firmware Bug]: workaround enabled for IBS LVT offset perf: AMD IBS detected (0x00000007) We always see this, since the offsets are not assigned by the BIOS for this family. Force LVT offset assignment in this case. If the OS assignment fails, fallback to BIOS settings and try to setup this. The fallback to BIOS settings weakens the family check since force_ibs_eilvt_setup() may fail e.g. in case of virtual machines. But setup may still succeed if BIOS offsets are correct. Other families don't have a workaround implemented that assigns LVT offsets. It's ok, to drop calling force_ibs_eilvt_setup() for that families. With the patch the [Firmware Bug] messages vanish.

People with old AMD chips are getting hung boots, because commit bcb80e53 ("x86, microcode, AMD: Add microcode revision to /proc/cpuinfo") moved the microcode detection too early into "early_init_amd()". At that point we are *so* early in the booth that the exception tables haven't even been set up yet, so the whole rdmsr_safe(MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LEVEL, &c->microcode, &dummy); doesn't actually work: if the rdmsr does a GP fault (due to non-existant MSR register on older CPU's), we can't fix it up yet, and the boot fails. Fix it by simply moving the code to a slightly later point in the boot (init_amd() instead of early_init_amd()), since the kernel itself doesn't even really care about the microcode patchlevel at this point (or really ever: it's made available to user space in /proc/cpuinfo, and updated if you do a microcode load).

The idea behind commit d91ee586 ("cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle") was to have one call - disable_cpuidle() which would make pm_idle not be molested by other code. It disallows cpuidle_idle_call to be set to pm_idle (which is excellent). But in the select_idle_routine() and idle_setup(), the pm_idle can still be set to either: amd_e400_idle, mwait_idle or default_idle. This depends on some CPU flags (MWAIT) and in AMD case on the type of CPU. In case of mwait_idle we can hit some instances where the hypervisor (Amazon EC2 specifically) sets the MWAIT and we get: Brought up 2 CPUs invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64 #1 RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81015d1d>] [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4 ...

Meaning we end up going to hypervisor twice instead of just once. The previous behavior before v3.0 was that pm_idle was set to default_idle regardless of select_idle_routine/idle_setup. We want to do that, but only for one specific case: Xen. This patch does that.

git commit 20b40a79 "signal race with restarting system calls" added code to the poke_user/poke_user_compat to reset the system call restart information in the thread-info if the PSW address is changed. The purpose of that change has been to workaround old gdbs that do not know about the REGSET_SYSTEM_CALL. It turned out that this is not a good idea, it makes the behaviour of the debuggee dependent on the order of specific ptrace call, e.g. the REGSET_SYSTEM_CALL register set needs to be written last. And the workaround does not really fix old gdbs, inferior calls on interrupted restarting system calls do not work either way. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

There is a kprobes testcase for the instruction "strd r2, [r3], r4". This has unpredictable behaviour as it uses r3 for register writeback addressing and also stores it to memory. On a cortex A9, this testcase would fail because the instruction writes the updated value of r3 to memory, whereas the kprobes emulation code writes the original value. Fix this by changing testcase to used r5 instead of r3.

Commit 4294f8ba ("ARM: gic: add irq_domain support") defines irq_start as irq_start = (irq_start & ~31) + 16; On a platform with a GIC and a CPU without PPIs, this results in irq_start being off by 16. This patch fixes gic_init so that we only carve out a PPI space when PPIs exist for the GIC being initialised.

When multiple GICs exist on a platform (RealView PB1176/11MP), we must make sure the PM notifier block is only registered once, otherwise we end up corrupting the PM notifier list. The fix is to only register the notifier when initializing the first GIC, as the power management functions seem to iterate over all the registered GICs. Tested on PB11MP and PB1176.

When compiling kprobes-test-thumb.c an error like below may occur: /tmp/ccKcuJcG.s:19179: Error: offset out of range This is caused by the compiler underestimating the size of the inline assembler instructions containing ".space 0x1000" and failing to spill the literal pool in time to prevent the generation of PC relative load instruction with invalid offsets. The fix implemented by this patch is to replace a single large .space directive by a number of 4 byte .space's. This requires splitting the macros which generate test cases for branch instructions into two forms: one with, and one without support for inserting extra code between branch and target.

dma_alloc_coherent wants to split pages after allocation in order to reduce the memory footprint. This does not work well with GFP_COMP pages, so drop this flag before allocation.

The bitops functions (e.g. _test_and_set_bit) on ARM do not have unwind annotations and therefore the kernel cannot backtrace out of them on a fatal error (for example, NULL pointer dereference). This patch annotates the bitops assembly macros with UNWIND annotations so that we can produce a meaningful backtrace on error. Callers of the macros are modified to pass their function name as a macro parameter, enforcing that the macros are used as standalone function implementations.
