514ec49a5f x86, mce: remove incorrect __cpuinit for intel_init_cmci()
Impact: Bug fix on UP

Referring commit cc3ca22063,
Peter removed __cpuinit annotations for mce_cpu_features()
and its successor functions, which caused troubles on UP
configurations.

However the intel_init_cmci() was introduced after that and
it also has __cpuinit annotation even though it is called from
mce_cpu_features(). Remove the annotation from that function
too.

0920dce7d5 x86, mm: remove unnecessary include file from iomap_32.c
asm/highmem.h inclusion is added to use kmap_atomic_prot_pfn()
by commit bb6d59ca92

Now kmap_atomic_prot_pfn is moved to iomap_32.c
by commit dd63fdcc63

So the asm/highmem.h inclusion in iomap_32.c is unnecessary now.

796216a57f x86: allow extend_brk users to reserve brk space
Impact: new interface; remove hard-coded limit

Add RESERVE_BRK(name, size) macro to reserve space in the brk
area.  This should be a conservative (ie, larger) estimate of
how much space might possibly be required from the brk area.
Any unused space will be freed, so there's no real downside
on making the reservation too large (within limits).

The name should be unique within a given file, and somewhat
descriptive.

The C definition of RESERVE_BRK() ends up being more complex than
one would expect to work around a cluster of gcc infelicities:

  The first attempt was to simply try putting __section(.brk_reservation)
  on a variable.  This doesn't work because it ends up making it a
  @progbits section, which gets actual space allocated in the vmlinux
  executable.

  The second attempt was to emit the space into a section using asm,
  but gcc doesn't allow arguments to be passed to file-level asm()
  statements, making it hard to pass in the size.

  The final attempt is to wrap the asm() in a function to allow
  it to have arguments, and put the function itself into the
  .discard section, which vmlinux*.lds drops entirely from the
  emitted vmlinux.

ccf3fe02e3 x86-32: use brk segment for allocating initial kernel pagetable
Impact: use new interface instead of previous ad hoc implementation

Rather than having special purpose init_pg_table_start/end variables
to delimit the kernel pagetable built by head_32.S, just use the brk
mechanism to extend the bss for the new pagetable.

This patch removes init_pg_table_start/end and pg0, defines __brk_base
(which is page-aligned and immediately follows _end), initializes
the brk region to start there, and uses it for the 32-bit pagetable.

93dbda7cbc x86: add brk allocation for very, very early allocations
Impact: new interface

Add a brk()-like allocator which effectively extends the bss in order
to allow very early code to do dynamic allocations.  This is better than
using statically allocated arrays for data in subsystems which may never
get used.

The space for brk allocations is in the bss ELF segment, so that the
space is mapped properly by the code which maps the kernel, and so
that bootloaders keep the space free rather than putting a ramdisk or
something into it.

The bss itself, delimited by __bss_stop, ends before the brk area
(__brk_base to __brk_limit).  The kernel text, data and bss is reserved
up to __bss_stop.

Any brk-allocated data is reserved separately just before the kernel
pagetable is built, as that code allocates from unreserved spaces
in the e820 map, potentially allocating from any unused brk memory.
Ultimately any unused memory in the brk area is used in the general
kernel memory pool.

Initially the brk space is set to 1MB, which is probably much larger
than any user needs (the largest current user is i386 head_32.S's code
to build the pagetables to map the kernel, which can get fairly large
with a big kernel image and no PSE support).  So long as the system
has sufficient memory for the bootloader to reserve the kernel+1MB brk,
there are no bad effects resulting from an over-large brk.

Move the symbols delimiting a section part of the section
(section relative) rather than absolute.  This avoids any
unexpected gaps between the section-start symbol and the first
data in the section, which could be caused by implicit
alignment of the section data.  It also makes the general
form of vmlinux_64.lds.S consistent with vmlinux_32.lds.S.

3ff42da504 x86: mtrr: don't modify RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed MTRRs
Impact: bug fix + BIOS workaround

BIOS is expected to clear the SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on AMD CPUs
after fixed MTRRs are configured.

Some BIOSes do not clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on BP (and on APs).

This can lead to obfuscation in Linux when this bit is not cleared on
BP but cleared on APs. A consequence of this is that the saved
fixed-MTRR state (from BP) differs from the fixed-MTRRs of APs --
because RdDram/WrDram bits are read as zero when
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] is cleared -- and Linux tries to sync
fixed-MTRR state from BP to AP. This implies that Linux sets
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and activates those bits.

More important is that (some) systems change these bits in SMM when
ACPI is enabled. Hence it is racy if Linux modifies RdMem/WrMem bits,
too.

(1) The patch modifies an old fix from Bernhard Kaindl to get
    suspend/resume working on some Acer Laptops. Bernhard's patch
    tried to sync RdMem/WrMem bits of fixed MTRR registers and that
    helped on those old Laptops. (Don't ask me why -- can't test it
    myself). But this old problem was not the motivation for the
    patch. (See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/3/110)

(2) The more important effect is to fix issues on some more current systems.

    On those systems Linux panics or just freezes, see

    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11541
    (and also duplicates of this bug:
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11737
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11714)

    The affected systems boot only using acpi=ht, acpi=off or
    when the kernel is built with CONFIG_MTRR=n.

    The acpi options prevent full enablement of ACPI.  Obviously when
    ACPI is enabled the BIOS/SMM modfies RdMem/WrMem bits.  When
    CONFIG_MTRR=y Linux also accesses and modifies those bits when it
    needs to sync fixed-MTRRs across cores (Bernhard's fix, see (1)).
    How do you synchronize that? You can't. As a consequence Linux
    shouldn't touch those bits at all (Rationale are AMD's BKDGs which
    recommend to clear the bit that makes RdMem/WrMem accessible).
    This is the purpose of this patch. And (so far) this suffices to
    fix (1) and (2).

I suggest not to touch RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed-MTRRs and
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and to clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] as
suggested by AMD K8, and AMD family 10h/11h BKDGs.
BIOS is expected to do this anyway. This should avoid that
Linux and SMM tread on each other's toes ...

5c0e6f035d x86: fix code paths used by update_mptable
Impact: fix crashes under Xen due to unrobust e820 code

find_e820_area_size() must return a properly distinguishable and
out-of-bounds value when it fails, and -1UL does not meet that
criteria on i386/PAE. Additionally, callers of the function must
check against that value.

early_reserve_e820() should be prepared for the region found to be
outside of the addressable range on 32-bits.

e820_update_range_map() should not blindly update e820, but should do
all it work on the map it got a pointer passed for (which in 50% of the
cases is &e820_saved). It must also not call e820_add_region(), as that
again acts on e820 unconditionally.

The issues were found when trying to make this option work in our Xen
kernel (i.e. where some of the silent assumptions made in the code
would not hold).

82034d6f59 x86: clean up output resulting from update_mptable option
Impact: cleanup

Without apic=verbose, using the update_mptable option would result in
garbled and confusing output due to the inconsistent use of printk() vs
apic_printk().

13c6c53282 x86, 32-bit: also use cpuinfo_x86's x86_{phys,virt}_bits members
Impact: 32/64-bit consolidation

In a first step, this allows fixing phys_addr_valid() for PAE (which
until now reported all addresses to be valid). Subsequently, this will
also allow simplifying some MTRR handling code.

46d50c98d9 x86, 32-bit: also limit NODES_HIGH_SHIFT here
Impact: configuration bug fix

Just like for x86-64, the range of widths valid for NODE_SHIFT is not
unbounded. The upper bound 64-bit uses is definitely also an upper
bound for 32-bit.

dd63fdcc63 x86: unify kmap_atomic_pfn() and iomap_atomic_prot_pfn(), fix
Impact: build fix

Move kmap_atomic_prot_pfn() to iomap_32.c. It is used on all 32-bit
kernels, while highmem_32.c is only built on highmem kernels.

( Note: the debug_kmap_atomic_prot() check is removed for now, that
  problem is handled via another patch. )

7a81d9a7da x86: smarten /proc/interrupts output
Impact: change /proc/interrupts output ABI

With the number of interrupts on large systems growing, assumptions on
the width an interrupt number requires when converted to a decimal
string turn invalid. Therefore, calculate the maximum number of digits
dynamically.
