Pekka Paalanen 6bc5c366b1 trace: mmiotrace to the tracer menu in Kconfig
Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout

This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it
was forgotten.

CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable
directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel
configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64.

Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own
sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there.
Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture
specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by
x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.

Sheng Yang ba4cef31d5 KVM: Fix racy in kvm_free_assigned_irq
In the past, kvm_get_kvm() and kvm_put_kvm() was called in assigned device irq
handler and interrupt_work, in order to prevent cancel_work_sync() in
kvm_free_assigned_irq got a illegal state when waiting for interrupt_work done.
But it's tricky and still got two problems:

1. A bug ignored two conditions that cancel_work_sync() would return true result
in a additional kvm_put_kvm().

2. If interrupt type is MSI, we would got a window between cancel_work_sync()
and free_irq(), which interrupt would be injected again...

This patch discard the reference count used for irq handler and interrupt_work,
and ensure the legal state by moving the free function at the very beginning of
kvm_destroy_vm(). And the patch fix the second bug by disable irq before
cancel_work_sync(), which may result in nested disable of irq but OK for we are
going to free it.

john stultz b13e24644c x86, hpet: fix for LS21 + HPET = boot hang
Between 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc1 a change was made that broke IBM LS21
systems that had the HPET enabled in the BIOS, resulting in boot hangs
for x86_64.

Specifically commit b8ce335906, which
merges the i386 and x86_64 HPET code.

Prior to this commit, when we setup the HPET timers in x86_64, we did
the following:

	hpet_writel(HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC | HPET_TN_SETVAL |
                    HPET_TN_32BIT, HPET_T0_CFG);

However after the i386/x86_64 HPET merge, we do the following:

	cfg = hpet_readl(HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));
	cfg |= HPET_TN_ENABLE | HPET_TN_PERIODIC |
			HPET_TN_SETVAL | HPET_TN_32BIT;
	hpet_writel(cfg, HPET_Tn_CFG(timer));

However on LS21s with HPET enabled in the BIOS, the HPET_T0_CFG register
boots with Level triggered interrupts (HPET_TN_LEVEL) enabled. This
causes the periodic interrupt to be not so periodic, and that results in
the boot time hang I reported earlier in the delay calibration.

My fix: Always disable HPET_TN_LEVEL when setting up periodic mode.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge d85cf93da6 x86/paravirt: make arch_flush_lazy_mmu/cpu disable preemption
Impact: avoid access to percpu vars in preempible context

They are intended to be used whenever there's the possibility
that there's some stale state which is going to be overwritten
with a queued update, or to force a state change when we may be
in lazy mode.  Either way, we could end up calling it with
preemption enabled, so wrap the functions in their own little
preempt-disable section so they can be safely called in any
context (though preemption should never be enabled if we're actually
in a lazy state).

(Move out of line to avoid #include dependencies.)

Suresh Siddha be03d9e802 x86, pat: fix warn_on_once() while mapping 0-1MB range with /dev/mem
Jeff Mahoney reported:

> With Suse's hwinfo tool, on -tip:
> WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:637 reserve_pfn_range+0x5b/0x26d()

reserve_pfn_range() is not tracking the memory range below 1MB
as non-RAM and as such is inconsistent with similar checks in
reserve_memtype() and free_memtype()

Rename the pagerange_is_ram() to pat_pagerange_is_ram() and add the
"track legacy 1MB region as non RAM" condition.

And also, fix reserve_pfn_range() to return -EINVAL, when the pfn
range is RAM. This is to be consistent with this API design.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 4f06b0436b x86/cpa: make sure cpa is safe to call in lazy mmu mode
Impact: fix race leading to crash under KVM and Xen

The CPA code may be called while we're in lazy mmu update mode - for
example, when using DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC and doing a slab allocation
in an interrupt handler which interrupted a lazy mmu update.  In this
case, the in-memory pagetable state may be out of date due to pending
queued updates.  We need to flush any pending updates before inspecting
the page table.  Similarly, we must explicitly flush any modifications
CPA may have made (which comes down to flushing queued operations when
flushing the TLB).

Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is

Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in

which will be called from __ptrace_unlink().

The fix follows a proposal from Oleg Nesterov.

Tejun Heo 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.

Commit 6194ba6ff6 ("x86: don't special-case
pmd allocations as much") made changes to the way we handle pmd allocations,
and while doing that it dropped a call to  paravirt_release_pd on the
pgd page from the pgd_dtor code path.

As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the
pgd page being freed, and as a result it ends up tracking this page as a
page table page.

After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and
depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance
and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots).

Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from
the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

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.

Roland McGrath c09249f8d1 x86-64: fix int $0x80 -ENOSYS return
One of my past fixes to this code introduced a different new bug.
When using 32-bit "int $0x80" entry for a bogus syscall number,
the return value is not correctly set to -ENOSYS.  This only happens
when neither syscall-audit nor syscall tracing is enabled (i.e., never
seen if auditd ever started).  Test program:

	/* gcc -o int80-badsys -m32 -g int80-badsys.c
	   Run on x86-64 kernel.
	   Note to reproduce the bug you need auditd never to have started.  */

	#include <errno.h>
	#include <stdio.h>

	int
	main (void)
	{
	  long res;
	  asm ("int $0x80" : "=a" (res) : "0" (99999));
	  printf ("bad syscall returns %ld\n", res);
	  return res != -ENOSYS;
	}

The fix makes the int $0x80 path match the sysenter and syscall paths.

Mark Langsdorf 732553e567 [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Get transition latency from ACPI _PSS table
At this time, the PowerNow! driver for K8 uses an experimentally
derived formula to calculate transition latency.  The value it
provides is orders of magnitude too large on modern systems.
This patch replaces the formula with ACPI _PSS latency values
for more accuracy and better performance.

I've tested it on two 2nd generation Opteron systems, a 3rd
generation Operton system, and a Turion X2 without seeing any
stability problems.

Kyle McMartin 0cd5c3c80a x86: disable intel_iommu support by default
Due to recurring issues with DMAR support on certain platforms.
There's a number of filesystem corruption incidents reported:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479996
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12578

Provide a Kconfig option to change whether it is enabled by
default.

If disabled, it can still be reenabled by passing intel_iommu=on to the
kernel. Keep the .config option off by default.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 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.

Pavel Emelyanov a6a95406c6 x86: fix hpet timer reinit for x86_64
There's a small problem with hpet_rtc_reinit function - it checks
for the:

	hpet_readl(HPET_COUNTER) - hpet_t1_cmp > 0

to continue increasing both the HPET_T1_CMP (register) and the
hpet_t1_cmp (variable).

But since the HPET_COUNTER is always 32-bit, if the hpet_t1_cmp
is 64-bit this condition will always be FALSE once the latter hits
the 32-bit boundary, and we can have a situation, when we don't
increase the HPET_T1_CMP register high enough.

The result - timer stops ticking, since HPET_T1_CMP becomes less,
than the COUNTER and never increased again.

The solution is (based on Linus's suggestion) to not compare 64-bits
(on 64-bit x86), but to do the comparison on 32-bit signed
integers.

Booting a 32bit kernel on an AMD Fam10h CPU running on chipsets with
missing/b0rked MP table leads to a hang pretty early in the boot process
due to the APIC not being initialized. Fix that by falling back to the
default APIC base address in 32bit code, as it is done in the 64bit

Impact: Fix race condition

xen_mc_batch has a small preempt race where it takes the address of a
percpu variable immediately before disabling interrupts, thereby
leaving a small window in which we may migrate to another cpu and save
the flags in the wrong percpu variable.  Disable interrupts before
saving the old flags in a percpu.
