Slightly modified by trenn@suse.de -> only do this on fam 10h and fam 11h.
Currently powernow-k8 determines CPU frequency from ACPI PSS objects, but
according to AMD family 11h BKDG this frequency is just a rounded value:
"CoreFreq (MHz) = The CPU COF specified by MSRC001_00[6B:64][CpuFid]
rounded to the nearest 100 Mhz."
As a consequnce powernow-k8 reports wrong CPU frequency on some systems,
e.g. on Turion X2 Ultra:
powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82
processors (2 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
powernow-k8: 0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz)
powernow-k8: 1 : pstate 1 (1100 MHz)
powernow-k8: 2 : pstate 2 (600 MHz)
But this is wrong as frequency for Pstate2 is 550 MHz. x86info reports it
correctly:
#x86info -a |grep Pstate
...
Pstate-0: fid=e, did=0, vid=24 (2200MHz)
Pstate-1: fid=e, did=1, vid=30 (1100MHz)
Pstate-2: fid=e, did=2, vid=3c (550MHz) (current)
Solution is to determine the frequency directly from Pstate MSRs instead
of using rounded values from ACPI table.

For relocatable 32bit kernels, boot/compressed/relocs.c processes
relocation entries in the kernel image and appends it to the kernel
image such that boot/compressed/head_32.S can relocate the kernel.
The kernel image is one statically linked object and only uses two
relocation types - R_386_PC32 and R_386_32, of the two only the latter
needs massaging during kernel relocation and thus handled by relocs.
R_386_PC32 is ignored and all other relocation types are considered
error.
When the target of a relocation resides in a discarded section,
binutils doesn't throw away the relocation record but nullifies it by
changing it to R_386_NONE, which unfortunately makes relocs fail.
The problem was triggered by yet out-of-tree x86 stack unwind patches
but given the binutils behavior, ignoring R_386_NONE is the right
thing to do.
The problem has been tracked down to binutils behavior by Jan Beulich.

KVM: Fix PDPTR reloading on CR4 writes
KVM: Make paravirt tlb flush also reload the PAE PDPTRs
The processor is documented to reload the PDPTRs while in PAE mode if any
of the CR4 bits PSE, PGE, or PAE change. Linux relies on this
behaviour when zapping the low mappings of PAE kernels during boot.
The code already handled changes to CR4.PAE; augment it to also notice changes
to PSE and PGE.
This triggered while booting an F11 PAE kernel; the futex initialization code
runs before any CR3 reloads and writes to a NULL pointer; the futex subsystem
ended up uninitialized, killing PI futexes and pulseaudio which uses them.

Remap percpu allocator has subtle bug when combined with page
attribute changing. Remap percpu allocator aliases PMD pages for the
first chunk and as pageattr doesn't know about the alias it ends up
updating page attributes of the original mapping thus leaving the
alises in inconsistent state which might lead to subtle data
corruption. Please read the following threads for more information:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/835783
The following is the proposed fix which teaches pageattr about percpu
aliases.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/837157
However, the above changes are deemed too pervasive for upstream
inclusion for 2.6.30 release, so this patch essentially disables

Remove ACPI 3 E820 extended memory attributes support. At least one
vendor actively set all the flags to zero, but left ECX on return at
24. This bug may be present in other BIOSes.
The breakage functionally means the ACPI 3 flags are probably
completely useless, and that no OS any time soon is going to rely on
their existence. Therefore, drop support completely. We may want to
revisit this question in the future, if we find ourselves actually
needing the flags.
This reverts all or part of the following checkins:

x86/function-graph: fix constraint for recording old return value
Xiaohui Xin and some other folks at Intel have been looking into what's
behind the performance hit of paravirt_ops when running native.
It appears that the hit is entirely due to the paravirtualized
spinlocks introduced by:
| commit 8efcbab674
| Date: Mon Jul 7 12:07:51 2008 -0700
|
| paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation
The extra call/return in the spinlock path is somehow
causing an increase in the cycles/instruction of somewhere around 2-7%
(seems to vary quite a lot from test to test). The working theory is
that the CPU's pipeline is getting upset about the
call->call->locked-op->return->return, and seems to be failing to
speculate (though I haven't seen anything definitive about the precise
reasons). This doesn't entirely make sense, because the performance
hit is also visible on unlock and other operations which don't involve
locked instructions. But spinlock operations clearly swamp all the
other pvops operations, even though I can't imagine that they're
nearly as common (there's only a .05% increase in instructions
executed).
If I disable just the pv-spinlock calls, my tests show that pvops is
identical to non-pvops performance on native (my measurements show that
it is actually about .1% faster, but Xiaohui shows a .05% slowdown).
Summary of results, averaging 10 runs of the "mmperf" test, using a
no-pvops build as baseline:
nopv Pv-nospin Pv-spin
CPU cycles 100.00% 99.89% 102.18%
instructions 100.00% 100.10% 100.15%
CPI 100.00% 99.79% 102.03%
cache ref 100.00% 100.84% 100.28%
cache miss 100.00% 90.47% 88.56%
cache miss rate 100.00% 89.72% 88.31%
branches 100.00% 99.93% 100.04%
branch miss 100.00% 103.66% 107.72%
branch miss rt 100.00% 103.73% 107.67%
wallclock 100.00% 99.90% 102.20%
The clear effect here is that the 2% increase in CPI is
directly reflected in the final wallclock time.
(The other interesting effect is that the more ops are
out of line calls via pvops, the lower the cache access
and miss rates. Not too surprising, but it suggests that
the non-pvops kernel is over-inlined. On the flipside,
the branch misses go up correspondingly...)
So, what's the fix?
Paravirt patching turns all the pvops calls into direct calls, so
_spin_lock etc do end up having direct calls. For example, the compiler
generated code for paravirtualized _spin_lock is:
<_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>: callq *0xffffffff805a5b30
<_spin_lock+22>: retq
The indirect call will get patched to:
<_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>: callq <__ticket_spin_lock>
<_spin_lock+20>: nop; nop /* or whatever 2-byte nop */
<_spin_lock+22>: retq
One possibility is to inline _spin_lock, etc, when building an
optimised kernel (ie, when there's no spinlock/preempt
instrumentation/debugging enabled). That will remove the outer
call/return pair, returning the instruction stream to a single
call/return, which will presumably execute the same as the non-pvops
case. The downsides arel 1) it will replicate the
preempt_disable/enable code at eack lock/unlock callsite; this code is
fairly small, but not nothing; and 2) the spinlock definitions are
already a very heavily tangled mass of #ifdefs and other preprocessor
magic, and making any changes will be non-trivial.
The other obvious answer is to disable pv-spinlocks. Making them a
separate config option is fairly easy, and it would be trivial to
enable them only when Xen is enabled (as the only non-default user).
But it doesn't really address the common case of a distro build which
is going to have Xen support enabled, and leaves the open question of
whether the native performance cost of pv-spinlocks is worth the
performance improvement on a loaded Xen system (10% saving of overall
system CPU when guests block rather than spin). Still it is a
reasonable short-term workaround.

After upgrading from gcc 4.2.2 to 4.4.0, the function graph tracer broke.
Investigating, I found that in the asm that replaces the return value,
gcc was using the same register for the old value as it was for the
new value.
mov (addr), old
mov new, (addr)
But if old and new are the same register, we clobber new with old!
I first thought this was a bug in gcc 4.4.0 and reported it:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40132
Andrew Pinski responded (quickly), saying that it was correct gcc behavior
and the code needed to denote old as an "early clobber".
Instead of "=r"(old), we need "=&r"(old).

According to the gettimeofday(2) manual:
If either tv or tz is NULL, the corresponding structure is not
set or returned.
Since it is legal to give NULL as the tv argument, the code should make
sure tv is not NULL before trying to dereference it.
This issue manifests itself on x86_64 when vdso=0 is not on the kernel
command-line and libc uses the vDSO for gettimeofday() (e.g. glibc >=
2.7). A simple reproducer:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
int main(void)
{
struct timezone tz;
gettimeofday(NULL, &tz);
return 0;
}

With this patch HPET_COUNTER is still stopped but not reset when HPET

HPET is programmed in periodic mode and fixes a boot time hang that

In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU(). This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.
On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section. The linker throws
up the following errors:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU(). However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

In 64bit signal delivery path, clear_used_math() was happening before saving
the current active FPU state on to the user stack for signal handling. Between
clear_used_math() and the state store on to the user stack, potentially we
can get a page fault for the user address and can block. Infact, while testing
we were hitting the might_fault() in __clear_user() which can do a schedule().
At a later point in time, we will schedule back into this process and
resume the save state (using "xsave/fxsave" instruction) which can lead
to DNA fault. And as used_math was cleared before, we will reinit the FP state
in the DNA fault and continue. This reinit will result in loosing the
FPU state of the process.
Move clear_used_math() to a point after the FPU state has been stored
onto the user stack.
This issue is present from a long time (even before the xsave changes
and the x86 merge). But it can easily be exposed in 2.6.28.x and 2.6.29.x
series because of the __clear_user() in this path, which has an explicit
__cond_resched() leading to a context switch with CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY.

int3 is a breakpoint!
Examining this further, I have CONFIG_NET_TCPPROBE enabled which adds

The paranoid_exit of the return of int3 does not account for enabling
interrupts on return to kernel. This code is a bit tricky since it

This patch just removes the track/untrack of vm_insert_pfn. That
means we will be in same state as 2.6.28, with respect to these APIs.
Newer APIs for the drivers to request a memtype for a bigger region
is coming soon.

This patch correctly sets BAU memory mapped registers to point
to the sending activation descriptor table and target payload table.
The "Broadcast Assist Unit" is used for TLB shootdown in UV.
The memory mapped registers that point to sending and receiving
memory structures contain node numbers.
In one case the __pa() function did not provide the node id of
memory on blade zero in configurations where that id is nonzero.
In another case, it was assumed that memory was allocated on
the local node. That assumption is not true in a configuration
in which the node has no memory.
Tested on the UV hardware simulator.

Oleg Nesterov found a couple of races in the ptrace-bts code
and fixes are queued up for it but they did not get ready in time
for the merge window. We'll merge them in v2.6.31 - until then
mark the feature as CONFIG_BROKEN. There's no user-space yet
making use of this so it's not a big issue.

It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.
My bad.
'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):
(a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.
(b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
call on that CPU.
Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel. So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

Revert part of af5c820a31 ("x86: cpumask:
use work_on_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c")
That change is causing only one Intel CPU's microcode to be updated e.g.
microcode: CPU3 updated from revision 0x9 to 0x17, date = 2005-04-22
where before it announced that also for CPU0 and CPU1 and CPU2.
We cannot use work_on_cpu() in the CONFIG_MICROCODE_OLD_INTERFACE code,
because Intel's request_microcode_user() involves a copy_from_user() from
/sbin/microcode_ctl, which therefore needs to be on that CPU at the time.

This patch enables each partition's BAU distribution bit map
to be partition-relative.
The distribution bitmap had been constructed assuming 0 as the base
node number. That construct would not have allowed a total system of
greater than 256 nodes.
It also corrects an error that occurred when the first blade's nasid
was not zero. That nasid was stored as the base node.
The base node number gets added by hardware to the node numbers implied
in the distribution bitmap, resulting in invalid target nasids.
Tested on the UV hardware simulator.

Yes. The idea here was to force the MSI migration to happen in process
context. One of the patches in the series did
disable_irq(dev->irq);
irq_set_affinity(dev->irq, cpumask_of(dev->cpu));
enable_irq(dev->irq);
with the above patch adding irq/manage code check for interrupt disabled
and moving the interrupt in process context.
IIRC, there was no IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT when we were developing this HPET
code and we ended up having this ugly hack. IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT was there
when we eventually submitted the patch upstream. But, looks like I did a
blind rebasing instead of using IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT in hpet MSI code.
Below patch fixes this. i.e., revert commit 932775a4ab
and add PCNTXT to HPET MSI setup. Also removes copying of desc->affinity
in generic code as set_affinity routines are doing it internally.

We ended up incorrectly using '&cur' instead of '&readin' in the
work_on_cpu() -> smp_call_function_single() transformation in commit
01599fca67 ("cpufreq: use
smp_call_function_[single|many]() in acpi-cpufreq.c").
Andrew explains:
"OK, the acpi tree went and had conflicting changes merged into it after
I'd written the patch and it appears that I incorrectly reverted part
of 18b2646fe3 while fixing the resulting
rejects.
Switching it to `readin' looks correct."
