Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using iwlagn. It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible. The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that: 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up. I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec range.

When using mmu notifiers, we are allowed to remove the page count reference tooken by get_user_pages to a specific page that is mapped inside the shadow page tables. This is needed so we can balance the pagecount against mapcount checking. (Right now kvm increase the pagecount and does not increase the mapcount when mapping page into shadow page table entry, so when comparing pagecount against mapcount, you have no reliable result.)

Make decoding of MCEs happen only on AMD hardware by registering a non-default callback only on CPU families which support it. While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE code i also noticed a few other things and made the following cleanups/fixes: - Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not good, obviously. - The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h. - Added the more correct fallback printk of: No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type. Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode. On CPUs that dont have a decoder. - Made the surrounding code more readable. Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback - without having to check the CPU versions during the printout itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the decode-print function. (there's no unregister needed as this is core code.) version -v2 by Borislav Petkov: - add K8 to the set of supported CPUs - always build in edac_mce_amd since we use an early_initcall now - fix checkpatch warnings Signed-off-by: NBorislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> LKML-Reference: <20091001141432.GA11410@aftab> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Try to avoid the 'alternates()' code when we can statically determine that cmpxchg8b is fine. We already have that CONFIG_x86_CMPXCHG64 (enabled by PAE support), and we could easily also enable it for some of the CPU cases. Note, this patch only adds CMPXCHG8B for the obvious Intel CPU's, not for others. (There was something really messy about cmpxchg8b and clone CPU's, so if you enable it on other CPUs later, do it carefully.) If we avoid that asm-alternative thing when we can assume the instruction exists, we'll generate less support crud, and we'll avoid the whole issue with that extra 'nop' for padding instruction sizes etc. LKML-Reference: <alpine.LFD.2.01.0909301743150.6996@localhost.localdomain> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code. cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there, but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking. This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on all modern systems. Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

It doesn't updated at memory hotplug and it tend to include unnecessary memory holes. Now, /proc/iomem (kernel/resource.c) includes required physical memory range information and it's properly updated at memory hotplug.

Some 64bit arch has special segment for mapping kernel text. It should be entried to /proc/kcore in addtion to direct-linear-map, vmalloc area. This patch unifies KCORE_TEXT entry scattered under x86 and ia64. I'm not familiar with other archs (mips has its own even after this patch) but range of [_stext ..._end) is a valid area of text and it's not in direct-map area, defining CONFIG_ARCH_PROC_KCORE_TEXT is only a necessary thing to do. Note: I left mips as it is now.

For /proc/kcore, vmalloc areas are registered per arch. But, all of them registers same range of [VMALLOC_START...VMALLOC_END) This patch unifies them. By this. archs which have no kclist_add() hooks can see vmalloc area correctly.
