In the case of multiple FPU errors, prioritize the error codes, instead of returning __SI_FAULT, which ends up pushing a 0 as the error code to userspace, a POSIX violation. For i386, we will simply return if there are no errors at all; for x86-64 this is probably a "can't happen" (and the code should be unified), but for this patch, return __SI_FAULT|SI_KERNEL if this ever happens.

Impact: fix deadlock This is in response to the following bug report: Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100 Subject : resume (S2R) broken by Intel microcode module, on A110L Submitter : Andreas Mohr <andi@lisas.de> Date : 2008-11-25 08:48 (19 days old) Handled-By : Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> [ The deadlock scenario has been discovered by Andreas Mohr ] I think I might have a logical explanation why the system: (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100) might hang upon resuming, OTOH it should have likely hanged each and every time. (1) possible deadlock in microcode_resume_cpu() if either 'if' section is taken; (2) now, I don't see it in spec. and can't experimentally verify it (newer ucodes don't seem to be available for my Core2duo)... but logically-wise, I'd think that when read upon resuming, the 'microcode revision' (MSR 0x8B) should be back to its original one (we need to reload ucode anyway so it doesn't seem logical if a cpu doesn't drop the version)... if so, the comparison with memcmp() for the full 'struct cpu_signature' is wrong... and that's how one of the aforementioned 'if' sections might have been triggered - leading to a deadlock. Obviously, in my tests I simulated loading/resuming with the ucode of the same version (just to see that the file is loaded/re-loaded upon resuming) so this issue has never popped up. I'd appreciate if someone with an appropriate system might give a try to the 2nd patch (titled "fix a comparison && deadlock..."). In any case, the deadlock situation is a must-have fix.

Impact: fix disabled MCE after resume Don't prevent multiple initialization of MCEs. Back from early prehistory mcheck_init() has a reentry check. Presumably that was needed in very old kernels to prevent it entering twice. But as Andreas points out this prevents CPU hotplug (and therefore resume) to correctly reinitialize MCEs when a AP boots again after being offlined. Just drop the check.

Impact: fix UV boot crash This fixes a UV bug related to generating global memory addresses on partitioned systems. Partition systems do not have physical memory at address 0. Instead, a chunk of high memory is remapped by the chipset so that it appears to be at address 0. This remapping is INVISIBLE to most of the OS. The only OS functions that need to be aware of the remaping are functions that directly interface to the chipset. The GRU is one example. Also, delete a couple of unused macros related to global memory addresses. Signed-off-by: NJack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: cleanup, remove dead debug code I ran across some old debugging code in vmi paravirt-ops code that was already dead, but still potentially useful. After reviewing recent changes to the way kernel page tables are allocated and initialized, and the lack of bugs caught by this debugging code, I've concluded it is now totally useless to have around, and it's already been #if 0'd for quite some time. There's no rush to get this in mainline, but it's also totally harmless, so I'll let the x86 maintainers decide where it should be tucked. I've been out of the mainstream dev loop for a couple months, so apologies if I haven't got any protocol changes in order.

VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap to malfunction if it is initialized before the relocation. To fix this, VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation, which must happen after parsing early boot parameters. This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware. Signed-off-by: NZachary Amsden <zach@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
