Nick Piggin 4827bbb06e i386: remove bogus comment about memory barrier
The comment being removed by this patch is incorrect and misleading.

In the following situation:

	1. load  ...
	2. store 1 -> X
	3. wmb
	4. rmb
	5. load  a <- Y
	6. store ...

4 will only ensure ordering of 1 with 5.
3 will only ensure ordering of 2 with 6.

Further, a CPU with strictly in-order stores will still only provide that
2 and 6 are ordered (effectively, it is the same as a weakly ordered CPU
with wmb after every store).

In all cases, 5 may still be executed before 2 is visible to other CPUs!

The additional piece of the puzzle that mb() provides is the store/load
ordering, which fundamentally cannot be achieved with any combination of
rmb()s and wmb()s.

This can be an unexpected result if one expected any sort of global ordering
guarantee to barriers (eg. that the barriers themselves are sequentially
consistent with other types of barriers).  However sfence or lfence barriers
need only provide an ordering partial ordering of memory operations -- Consider
that wmb may be implemented as nothing more than inserting a special barrier
entry in the store queue, or, in the case of x86, it can be a noop as the store
queue is in order. And an rmb may be implemented as a directive to prevent
subsequent loads only so long as their are no previous outstanding loads (while
there could be stores still in store queues).

I can actually see the occasional load/store being reordered around lfence on
my core2. That doesn't prove my above assertions, but it does show the comment
is wrong (unless my program is -- can send it out by request).

So:
   mb() and smp_mb() always have and always will require a full mfence
   or lock prefixed instruction on x86.  And we should remove this comment.

Len Brown 61ec7567db ACPI: boot correctly with "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0"
In MPS mode, "nosmp" and "maxcpus=0" boot a UP kernel with IOAPIC disabled.
However, in ACPI mode, these parameters didn't completely disable
the IO APIC initialization code and boot failed.

init/main.c:
	Disable the IO_APIC if "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0"
	undefine disable_ioapic_setup() when it doesn't apply.

i386:
	delete ioapic_setup(), it was a duplicate of parse_noapic()
	delete undefinition of disable_ioapic_setup()

x86_64:
	rename disable_ioapic_setup() to parse_noapic() to match i386
	define disable_ioapic_setup() in header to match i386

Daniel Gollub 0328ecef90 x86_64: Fix to keep watchdog disabled by default for i386/x86_64
Fixed wrong expression which enabled watchdogs even if nmi_watchdog kernel
parameter wasn't set. This regression got slightly introduced with commit
b7471c6da9.

Introduced NMI_DISABLED (-1) which allows to switch the value of NMI_DEFAULT
without breaking the APIC NMI watchdog code (again).

Satyam Sharma 62be90012c i386: Fix a couple busy loops in mach_wakecpu.h:wait_for_init_deassert()
Use cpu_relax() in the busy loops, as atomic_read() doesn't automatically
imply volatility for i386 and x86_64. x86_64 doesn't have this issue because
it open-codes the while loop in smpboot.c:smp_callin() itself that already
uses cpu_relax().

For i386, however, smpboot.c:smp_callin() calls wait_for_init_deassert()
which is buggy for mach-default and mach-es7000 cases.

[ I test-built a kernel -- smp_callin() itself got inlined in its only
  callsite, smpboot.c:start_secondary() -- and the relevant piece of
  code disassembles to the following:

0xc1019704 <start_secondary+12>:        mov    0xc144c4c8,%eax
0xc1019709 <start_secondary+17>:        test   %eax,%eax
0xc101970b <start_secondary+19>:        je     0xc1019709 <start_secondary+17>

  init_deasserted (at 0xc144c4c8) gets fetched into %eax only once and
  then we loop over the test of the stale value in the register only,
  so these look like real bugs to me. With the fix below, this becomes:

0xc1019706 <start_secondary+14>:        pause
0xc1019708 <start_secondary+16>:        cmpl   $0x0,0xc144c4c8
0xc101970f <start_secondary+23>:        je     0xc1019706 <start_secondary+14>

  which looks nice and healthy. ]

Andi Kleen d3f7eae182 i386: Use global flag to disable broken local apic timer on AMD CPUs.
The Averatec 2370 and some other Turion laptop BIOS seems to program the
ENABLE_C1E MSR inconsistently between cores. This confuses the lapic
use heuristics because when C1E is enabled anywhere it seems to affect
the complete chip.

Use a global flag instead of a per cpu flag to handle this.
If any CPU has C1E enabled disabled lapic use.

Andi Kleen ab144f5ec6 i386: Make patching more robust, fix paravirt issue
Commit 19d36ccdc3 "x86: Fix alternatives
and kprobes to remap write-protected kernel text" uses code which is
being patched for patching.

In particular, paravirt_ops does patching in two stages: first it
calls paravirt_ops.patch, then it fills any remaining instructions
with nop_out().  nop_out calls text_poke() which calls
lookup_address() which calls pgd_val() (aka paravirt_ops.pgd_val):
that call site is one of the places we patch.

If we always do patching as one single call to text_poke(), we only
need make sure we're not patching the memcpy in text_poke itself.
This means the prototype to paravirt_ops.patch needs to change, to
marshal the new code into a buffer rather than patching in place as it
does now.  It also means all patching goes through text_poke(), which
is known to be safe (apply_alternatives is also changed to make a
single patch).

Muli Ben-Yehuda 73c59afc65 finish i386 and x86-64 sysdata conversion
This patch finishes the i386 and x86-64 ->sysdata conversion and hopefully
also fixes Riku's and Andy's observed bugs.  It is based on Yinghai Lu's
and Andy Whitcroft's patches (thanks!) with some changes:

- introduce pci_scan_bus_with_sysdata() and use it instead of
  pci_scan_bus() where appropriate. pci_scan_bus_with_sysdata() will
  allocate the sysdata structure and then call pci_scan_bus().
- always allocate pci_sysdata dynamically. The whole point of this
  sysdata work is to make it easy to do root-bus specific things
  (e.g., support PCI domains and IOMMU's). I dislike using a default
  struct pci_sysdata in some places and a dynamically allocated
  pci_sysdata elsewhere - the potential for someone indavertantly
  changing the default structure is too high.
- this patch only makes the minimal changes necessary, i.e., the NUMA node is
  always initialized to -1. Patches to do the right thing with regards
  to the NUMA node can build on top of this (either add a 'node'
  parameter to pci_scan_bus_with_sysdata() or just update the node
  when it becomes known).

The patch was compile tested with various configurations (e.g., NUMAQ,
VISWS) and run-time tested on i386 and x86-64.  Unfortunately none of my
machines exhibited the bugs so caveat emptor.

Andy, could you please see if this fixes the NUMA issues you've seen?
Riku, does this fix "pci=noacpi" on your laptop?

Andrew Morton 57d4810ea0 revert "x86, serial: convert legacy COM ports to platform devices"
Revert 7e92b4fc34.  It broke Sébastien Dugué's
machine and Jeff said (persuasively)

  This seems like it will break decades-long-working stuff, in favor of
  breaking new ground in our favorite area, "trusting the BIOS."

  It's just not worth it for serial ports, IMO.  Serial ports are something
  that just shouldn't break at this late stage in the game.  My new Intel
  platform boxes don't even have serial ports, so I question the value of
  messing with serial port probing even more...  because...  just wait a year,
  and your box won't have a serial port either!  :)

  I certainly don't object to the use of platform devices (or isa_driver),
  but the probe change seems questionable.  That's sorta analagous to
  rewriting the floppy driver probe routine.  Sure you could do it...  but why
  risk all that damage and go through debugging all over again?

  It seems clear from this report that we cannot, should not, trust BIOS for
  something (a) so simple and (b) that has been working for over a decade.

Much discussion ensued and we've decided to have another go at all of this.

Juergen Beisert f25f64ed5b x86: Replace NSC/Cyrix specific chipset access macros by inlined functions.
Due to index register access ordering problems, when using macros a line
like this fails (and does nothing):

	setCx86(CX86_CCR2, getCx86(CX86_CCR2) | 0x88);

With inlined functions this line will work as expected.

Note about a side effect: Seems on Geode GX1 based systems the
"suspend on halt power saving feature" was never enabled due to this
wrong macro expansion. With inlined functions it will be enabled, but
this will stop the TSC when the CPU runs into a HLT instruction.
Kernel output something like this:
	Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -472746897 ns)

This is the 3rd version of this patch.

Rafael J. Wysocki 1c10070a55 i386: do not restore reserved memory after hibernation
On some systems the ACPI NVS area is located in the first 1 MB of RAM and

This confuses the ACPI platform firmware that doesn't update the AC adapter
status appropriately as a result
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7995).

The solution is to register the reserved memory in the first 1 MB as
'nosave', so that swsusp doesn't touch it during the restore.  Also, this
has been done on x86_64 for a long time now, so this patch makes the i386

Andi Kleen b520b85a96 i386: Move all simple string operations out of line
The compiler generally generates reasonable inline code for the simple
cases and for the rest it's better for code size for them to be out of line.
Also there they can be potentially optimized more in the future.

In fact they probably should be in a .S file because they're all pure
assembly, but that's for another day.

Also some code style cleanup on them while I was on it (this seems
to be the last untouched really early Linux code)

This saves ~12k text for a defconfig kernel with gcc 4.1.

Avi Kivity 2d9ce177e6 i386: Allow KVM on i386 nonpae
Currently, CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 both enables boot-time checking of
the cmpxchg64b feature and enables compilation of the set_64bit() family.
Since the option is dependent on PAE, and since KVM depends on set_64bit(),
this effectively disables KVM on i386 nopae.

Simplify by removing the config option altogether: the boot check is made
dependent on CONFIG_X86_PAE directly, and the set_64bit() family is exposed
without constraints.  It is up to users to check for the feature flag (KVM
does not as virtualiation extensions imply its existence).

Fenghua Yu 5fb7dc37dc define new percpu interface for shared data
per cpu data section contains two types of data.  One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus.  In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out.  This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.

One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end.  Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.

This patch:

Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 5ead97c84f xen: Core Xen implementation
This patch is a rollup of all the core pieces of the Xen
implementation, including:
 - booting and setup
 - pagetable setup
 - privileged instructions
 - segmentation
 - interrupt flags
 - upcalls
 - multicall batching

BOOTING AND SETUP

The vmlinux image is decorated with ELF notes which tell the Xen
domain builder what the kernel's requirements are; the domain builder
then constructs the address space accordingly and starts the kernel.

Xen has its own entrypoint for the kernel (contained in an ELF note).
The ELF notes are set up by xen-head.S, which is included into head.S.
In principle it could be linked separately, but it seems to provoke
lots of binutils bugs.

Because the domain builder starts the kernel in a fairly sane state
(32-bit protected mode, paging enabled, flat segments set up), there's
not a lot of setup needed before starting the kernel proper.  The main
steps are:
  1. Install the Xen paravirt_ops, which is simply a matter of a
     structure assignment.
  2. Set init_mm to use the Xen-supplied pagetables (analogous to the
     head.S generated pagetables in a native boot).
  3. Reserve address space for Xen, since it takes a chunk at the top
     of the address space for its own use.
  4. Call start_kernel()

PAGETABLE SETUP

Once we hit the main kernel boot sequence, it will end up calling back
via paravirt_ops to set up various pieces of Xen specific state.  One
of the critical things which requires a bit of extra care is the
construction of the initial init_mm pagetable.  Because Xen places
tight constraints on pagetables (an active pagetable must always be
valid, and must always be mapped read-only to the guest domain), we
need to be careful when constructing the new pagetable to keep these
constraints in mind.  It turns out that the easiest way to do this is
use the initial Xen-provided pagetable as a template, and then just
insert new mappings for memory where a mapping doesn't already exist.

This means that during pagetable setup, it uses a special version of
xen_set_pte which ignores any attempt to remap a read-only page as
read-write (since Xen will map its own initial pagetable as RO), but
lets other changes to the ptes happen, so that things like NX are set
properly.

PRIVILEGED INSTRUCTIONS AND SEGMENTATION

When the kernel runs under Xen, it runs in ring 1 rather than ring 0.
This means that it is more privileged than user-mode in ring 3, but it
still can't run privileged instructions directly.  Non-performance
critical instructions are dealt with by taking a privilege exception
and trapping into the hypervisor and emulating the instruction, but
more performance-critical instructions have their own specific
paravirt_ops.  In many cases we can avoid having to do any hypercalls
for these instructions, or the Xen implementation is quite different
from the normal native version.

The privileged instructions fall into the broad classes of:
  Segmentation: setting up the GDT and the GDT entries, LDT,
     TLS and so on.  Xen doesn't allow the GDT to be directly
     modified; all GDT updates are done via hypercalls where the new
     entries can be validated.  This is important because Xen uses
     segment limits to prevent the guest kernel from damaging the
     hypervisor itself.
  Traps and exceptions: Xen uses a special format for trap entrypoints,
     so when the kernel wants to set an IDT entry, it needs to be
     converted to the form Xen expects.  Xen sets int 0x80 up specially
     so that the trap goes straight from userspace into the guest kernel
     without going via the hypervisor.  sysenter isn't supported.
  Kernel stack: The esp0 entry is extracted from the tss and provided to
     Xen.
  TLB operations: the various TLB calls are mapped into corresponding
     Xen hypercalls.
  Control registers: all the control registers are privileged.  The most
     important is cr3, which points to the base of the current pagetable,
     and we handle it specially.

Another instruction we treat specially is CPUID, even though its not
privileged.  We want to control what CPU features are visible to the
rest of the kernel, and so CPUID ends up going into a paravirt_op.
Xen implements this mainly to disable the ACPI and APIC subsystems.

INTERRUPT FLAGS

Xen maintains its own separate flag for masking events, which is
contained within the per-cpu vcpu_info structure.  Because the guest
kernel runs in ring 1 and not 0, the IF flag in EFLAGS is completely
ignored (and must be, because even if a guest domain disables
interrupts for itself, it can't disable them overall).

(A note on terminology: "events" and interrupts are effectively
synonymous.  However, rather than using an "enable flag", Xen uses a
"mask flag", which blocks event delivery when it is non-zero.)

There are paravirt_ops for each of cli/sti/save_fl/restore_fl, which
are implemented to manage the Xen event mask state.  The only thing
worth noting is that when events are unmasked, we need to explicitly
see if there's a pending event and call into the hypervisor to make
sure it gets delivered.

UPCALLS

Xen needs a couple of upcall (or callback) functions to be implemented
by each guest.  One is the event upcalls, which is how events
(interrupts, effectively) are delivered to the guests.  The other is
the failsafe callback, which is used to report errors in either
reloading a segment register, or caused by iret.  These are
implemented in i386/kernel/entry.S so they can jump into the normal
iret_exc path when necessary.

MULTICALL BATCHING

Xen provides a multicall mechanism, which allows multiple hypercalls
to be issued at once in order to mitigate the cost of trapping into
the hypervisor.  This is particularly useful for context switches,
since the 4-5 hypercalls they would normally need (reload cr3, update
TLS, maybe update LDT) can be reduced to one.  This patch implements a
generic batching mechanism for hypercalls, which gets used in many
places in the Xen code.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 688340ea34 Add a sched_clock paravirt_op
The tsc-based get_scheduled_cycles interface is not a good match for
Xen's runstate accounting, which reports everything in nanoseconds.

This patch replaces this interface with a sched_clock interface, which
matches both Xen and VMI's requirements.

In order to do this, we:
   1. replace get_scheduled_cycles with sched_clock
   2. hoist cycles_2_ns into a common header
   3. update vmi accordingly

One thing to note: because sched_clock is implemented as a weak
function in kernel/sched.c, we must define a real function in order to
override this weak binding.  This means the usual paravirt_ops
technique of using an inline function won't work in this case.
