d315760ffa x86: fix math_emu register frame access
do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that
it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long
argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero
argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless
of configuration in the current code.

This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like
other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with
pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate()
like normal C functions do.  This way, unless gcc makes a copy of
struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is
correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler
used.

This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it
somewhat working.

a5ef7ca0e2 x86: spinlocks: define dummy __raw_spin_is_contended
Architectures other than mips and x86 are not using ticket spinlocks.
Therefore, the contention on the lock is meaningless, since there is
nobody known to be waiting on it (arguably /fairly/ unfair locks).

Dummy it out to return 0 on other architectures.

3f4a739c6a x86: find nr_irqs_gsi with mp_ioapic_routing
Impact: find right nr_irqs_gsi on some systems.

One test-system has gap between gsi's:

[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x04] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 4, version 0, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x05] address[0xfeafd000] gsi_base[48])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 5, version 0, address 0xfeafd000, GSI 48-54
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x06] address[0xfeafc000] gsi_base[56])
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[2]: apic_id 6, version 0, address 0xfeafc000, GSI 56-62
...
[    0.000000] nr_irqs_gsi: 38

So nr_irqs_gsi is not right. some irq for MSI will overwrite with io_apic.

need to get that with acpi_probe_gsi when acpi io_apic is used

e736ad548d x86: add clflush before monitor for Intel 7400 series
For Intel 7400 series CPUs, the recommendation is to use a clflush on the
monitored address just before monitor and mwait pair [1].

This clflush makes sure that there are no false wakeups from mwait when the
monitored address was recently written to.

b534816b55 x86: don't apply __supported_pte_mask to non-present ptes
On an x86 system which doesn't support global mappings,
__supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_GLOBAL clear, to make sure it never
appears in the PTE.  pfn_pte() and so on will enforce it with:

static inline pte_t pfn_pte(unsigned long page_nr, pgprot_t pgprot)
{
	return __pte((((phys_addr_t)page_nr << PAGE_SHIFT) |
		      pgprot_val(pgprot)) & __supported_pte_mask);
}

However, we overload _PAGE_GLOBAL with _PAGE_PROTNONE on non-present
ptes to distinguish them from swap entries.  However, applying
__supported_pte_mask indiscriminately will clear the bit and corrupt the
pte.

I guess the best fix is to only apply __supported_pte_mask to present
ptes.  This seems like the right solution to me, as it means we can
completely ignore the issue of overlaps between the present pte bits and
the non-present pte-as-swap entry use of the bits.

__supported_pte_mask contains the set of flags we support on the
current hardware.  We also use bits in the pte for things like
logically present ptes with no permissions, and swap entries for
swapped out pages.  We should only apply __supported_pte_mask to
present ptes, because otherwise we may destroy other information being
stored in the ptes.

e1b4d11436 x86: use standard PIT frequency
the RDC and ELAN platforms use slighly different PIT clocks, resulting in
a timex.h hack that changes PIT_TICK_RATE during build time. But if a
tester enables any of these platform support .config options, the PIT
will be miscalibrated on standard PC platforms.

So use one frequency - in a subsequent patch we'll add a quirk to allow
x86 platforms to define different PIT frequencies.

[<c0218875>] do_page_fault+0x36f/0x88a

This is the case where a concurrent fault already installed the PTE and
we get to free the newly allocated one.

This is due to pgtable_page_ctor() doing the spin_lock_init(&page->ptl)
which is overlaid with the {private, mapping} struct.

union {
    struct {
        unsigned long private;
        struct address_space *mapping;
    };
    spinlock_t ptl;
    struct kmem_cache *slab;
    struct page *first_page;
};

Normally the spinlock is small enough to not stomp on page->mapping, but
PREEMPT_RT=y has huge 'spin'locks.

But lockdep kernels should also be able to trigger this splat, as the
lock tracking code grows the spinlock to cover page->mapping.

The obvious fix is calling pgtable_page_dtor() like the regular pte free
path __pte_free_tlb() does.

It seems all architectures except x86 and nm10300 already do this, and
nm10300 doesn't seem to use pgtable_page_ctor(), which suggests it
doesn't do SMP or simply doesnt do MMU at all or something.

552b8aa4d1 Revert "x86: signal: change type of paramter for sys_rt_sigreturn()"
This reverts commit 4217458daf.

Justin Madru bisected this commit, it was causing weird Firefox
crashes.

The reason is that GCC mis-optimizes (re-uses) the on-stack parameters of
the calling frame, which corrupts the syscall return pt_regs state and
thus corrupts user-space register state.

So we go back to the slightly less clean but more optimization-safe
method of getting to pt_regs. Also add a comment to explain this.

Impact: less contention when issuing invalidate IPI, cleanup

Make x86_32 use the same tlb code as 64bit.  The 64bit code uses
multiple IPI vectors for tlb shootdown to reduce contention.  This
patch makes x86_32 allocate the same 8 IPIs as x86_64 and share the
code paths.

Note that the usage of asmlinkage is inconsistent for x86_32 and 64
and calls for further cleanup.  This has been noted with a FIXME
comment in tlb_64.c.

Impact: cleanup

Make the following uv related cleanups.

* collect visible uv related definitions and interfaces into uv/uv.h
  and use it.  this cleans up the messy situation where on 64bit, uv
  is defined properly, on 32bit generic it's dummy and on the rest
  undefined.  after this clean up, uv is defined on 64 and dummy on
  32.

* update uv_flush_tlb_others() such that it takes cpumask of
  to-be-flushed cpus as argument, instead of that minus self, and
  returns yet-to-be-flushed cpumask, instead of modifying the passed
  in parameter.  this interface change will ease dummy implementation
  of uv_flush_tlb_others() and makes uv tlb flush related stuff

6826c8ff07 x86: merge mmu_context.h
Impact: cleanup

tj: * changed cpu to unsigned as was done on mmu_context_64.h as cpu
      id is officially unsigned int
    * added missing ';' to 32bit version of deactivate_mm()

299e26992a x86: fix percpu_write with 64-bit constants
Impact: slightly better code generation for percpu_to_op()

The processor will sign-extend 32-bit immediate values in 64-bit
operations.  Use the 'e' constraint ("32-bit signed integer constant,
or a symbolic reference known to fit that range") for 64-bit constants.

67e68bde02 x86: update canary handling during switch
Impact: cleanup

In switch_to(), instead of taking offset to irq_stack_union.stack,
make it a proper percpu access using __percpu_arg() and per_cpu_var().

947e76cdc3 x86: move stack_canary into irq_stack
Impact: x86_64 percpu area layout change, irq_stack now at the beginning

Now that the PDA is empty except for the stack canary, it can be removed.
The irqstack is moved to the start of the per-cpu section.  If the stack
protector is enabled, the canary overlaps the bottom 48 bytes of the irqstack.

tj: * updated subject
    * dropped asm relocation of irq_stack_ptr
    * updated comments a bit
    * rebased on top of stack canary changes

8ce031972b x86: remove pda_init()
Impact: cleanup

Copy the code to cpu_init() to satisfy the requirement that the cpu
be reinitialized.  Remove all other calls, since the segments are
already initialized in head_64.S.

b4a8f7a262 x86: conditionalize stack canary handling in hot path
Impact: no unnecessary stack canary swapping during context switch

There's no point in moving stack_canary around during context switch
if it's not enabled.  Conditionalize it.

c6e50f93db x86: cleanup stack protector
Impact: cleanup

Make the following cleanups.

* remove duplicate comment from boot_init_stack_canary() which fits
  better in the other place - cpu_idle().

* move stack_canary offset check from __switch_to() to
  boot_init_stack_canary().

Conflicts:
	arch/x86/include/asm/pda.h

We merge tip/core/percpu into tip/perfcounters/core because of a
semantic and contextual conflict: the former eliminates the PDA,
while the latter extends it with apic_perf_irqs field.

Resolve the conflict by moving the new field to the irq_cpustat
structure on 64-bit too.
