Muli Ben-Yehuda 08f1c192c3 x86-64: introduce struct pci_sysdata to facilitate sharing of ->sysdata
This patch introduces struct pci_sysdata to x86 and x86-64, and
converts the existing two users (NUMA, Calgary) to use it.

This lays the groundwork for having other users of sysdata, such as
the PCI domains work.

The Calgary bits are tested, the NUMA bits just look ok.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 9585116ba0 i386: fix iounmap's use of vm_struct's size field
get_vm_area always returns an area with an adjacent guard page.  That guard
page is included in vm_struct.size.  iounmap uses vm_struct.size to
determine how much address space needs to have change_page_attr applied to
it, which will BUG if applied to the guard page.

This patch adds a helper function - get_vm_area_size() in linux/vmalloc.h -
to return the actual size of a vm area, and uses it to make iounmap do the
right thing.  There are probably other places which should be using
get_vm_area_size().

Thanks to Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> for debugging the
problem.

Yinghai Lu bc2cea6a34 x86_64: disable the GART in shutdown
For K8 system: 4G RAM with memory hole remapping enabled, or more than 4G
RAM installed.  when using kexec to load second kernel.  In the second
kernel, when mem is allocated for GART, it will do the memset for clear, it
will cause restart, because some device still used that for dma.  solution
will be:

in second kernel: disable that at first before we try to allocate mem for
it.  or in the first kernel: do disable that before shutdown.
Andi/Eric/Alan prefer to second one for clean shutdown in first kernel.
Andi also point out need to consider to AGP enable but mem less 4G case
too.

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
it is overwritten by the i386 code during the restore after hibernation.
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
restore code behave like the x86_64 one.

Tim Hockin e02e68d31e x86_64: support poll() on /dev/mcelog
Background:
 /dev/mcelog is typically polled manually.  This is less than optimal for
 situations where accurate accounting of MCEs is important.  Calling
 poll() on /dev/mcelog does not work.

Description:
 This patch adds support for poll() to /dev/mcelog.  This results in
 immediate wakeup of user apps whenever the poller finds MCEs.  Because
 the exception handler can not take any locks, it can not call the wakeup
 itself.  Instead, it uses a thread_info flag (TIF_MCE_NOTIFY) which is
 caught at the next return from interrupt or exit from idle, calling the
 mce_user_notify() routine.  This patch also disables the "fake panic"
 path of the mce_panic(), because it results in printk()s in the exception
 handler and crashy systems.

 This patch also does some small cleanup for essentially unused variables,
 and moves the user notification into the body of the poller, so it is
 only called once per poll, rather than once per CPU.

Result:
 Applications can now poll() on /dev/mcelog.  When an error is logged
 (whether through the poller or through an exception) the applications are
 woken up promptly.  This should not affect any previous behaviors.  If no
 MCEs are being logged, there is no overhead.

Alternatives:
 I considered simply supporting poll() through the poller and not using
 TIF_MCE_NOTIFY at all.  However, the time between an uncorrectable error
 happening and the user application being notified is *the*most* critical
 window for us.  Many uncorrectable errors can be logged to the network if
 given a chance.

 I also considered doing the MCE poll directly from the idle notifier, but
 decided that was overkill.

Testing:
 I used an error-injecting DIMM to create lots of correctable DRAM errors
 and verified that my user app is woken up in sync with the polling interval.
 I also used the northbridge to inject uncorrectable ECC errors, and
 verified (printk() to the rescue) that the notify routine is called and the
 user app does wake up.  I built with PREEMPT on and off, and verified
 that my machine survives MCEs.

David Rientjes 3484d79813 x86_64: fake pxm-to-node mapping for fake numa
For NUMA emulation, our SLIT should represent the true NUMA topology of the
system but our proximity domain to node ID mapping needs to reflect the
emulated state.

When NUMA emulation has successfully setup fake nodes on the system, a new
function, acpi_fake_nodes() is called.  This function determines the proximity
domain (_PXM) for each true node found on the system.  It then finds which
emulated nodes have been allocated on this true node as determined by its
starting address.  The node ID to PXM mapping is changed so that each fake
node ID points to the PXM of the true node that it is located on.

If the machine failed to register a SLIT, then we assume there is no special
requirement for emulated node affinity so we use the default LOCAL_DISTANCE,
which is newly exported to this code, as our measurement if the emulated nodes
appear in the same PXM.  Otherwise, we use REMOTE_DISTANCE.

PXM_INVAL and NID_INVAL are also exported to the ACPI header file so that we
can compare node_to_pxm() results in generic code (in this case, the SRAT
code).

Christoph Lameter 34feb2c83b x86_64: Quicklist support for x86_64
This adds caching of pgds and puds, pmds, pte.  That way we can avoid costly
zeroing and initialization of special mappings in the pgd.

A second quicklist is useful to separate out PGD handling.  We can carry the
initialized pgds over to the next process needing them.

Also clean up the pgd_list handling to use regular list macros.  There is no
need anymore to avoid the lru field.

Move the add/removal of the pgds to the pgdlist into the constructor /
destructor.  That way the implementation is congruent with i386.

Andi Kleen 2aae950b21 x86_64: Add vDSO for x86-64 with gettimeofday/clock_gettime/getcpu
This implements new vDSO for x86-64.  The concept is similar
to the existing vDSOs on i386 and PPC.  x86-64 has had static
vsyscalls before,  but these are not flexible enough anymore.

A vDSO is a ELF shared library supplied by the kernel that is mapped into
user address space.  The vDSO mapping is randomized for each process
for security reasons.

Doing this was needed for clock_gettime, because clock_gettime
always needs a syscall fallback and having one at a fixed
address would have made buffer overflow exploits too easy to write.

The vdso can be disabled with vdso=0

It currently includes a new gettimeofday implemention and optimized
clock_gettime(). The gettimeofday implementation is slightly faster
than the one in the old vsyscall.  clock_gettime is significantly faster
than the syscall for CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_REALTIME.

The new calls are generally faster than the old vsyscall.

Advantages over the old x86-64 vsyscalls:
- Extensible
- Randomized
- Cleaner
- Easier to virtualize (the old static address range previously causes
overhead e.g. for Xen because it has to create special page tables for it)

Weak points:
- glibc support still to be written

The VM interface is partly based on Ingo Molnar's i386 version.

Andi Kleen a586df067a x86: Support __attribute__((__cold__)) in gcc 4.3
gcc 4.3 supports a new __attribute__((__cold__)) to mark functions cold. Any
path directly leading to a call of this function will be unlikely. And gcc
will try to generate smaller code for the function itself.

Please use with care. The code generation advantage isn't large and in most
cases it is not worth uglifying code with this.

This patch marks some common error functions like panic(), printk()
as cold.  This will longer term make many unlikely()s unnecessary, although
we can keep them for now for older compilers.

BUG is not marked cold because there is currently no way to tell
gcc to mark a inline function told.

Also all __init and __exit functions are marked cold. With a non -Os
build this will tell the compiler to generate slightly smaller code
for them. I think it currently only uses less alignments for labels,
but that might change in the future.

One disadvantage over *likely() is that they cannot be easily instrumented
to verify them.

Another drawback is that only the latest gcc 4.3 snapshots support this.
Unfortunately we cannot detect this using the preprocessor. This means older
snapshots will fail now. I don't think that's a problem because they are
unreleased compilers that nobody should be using.

gcc also has a __hot__ attribute, but I don't see any sense in using
this in the kernel right now. But someday I hope gcc will be able
to use more aggressive optimizing for hot functions even in -Os,
if that happens it should be added.

Includes compile fix from Thomas Gleixner.

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.

David Rientjes ae2c6dcf90 x86_64: various cleanups in NUMA scan node
In acpi_scan_nodes(), we immediately return -1 if acpi_numa <= 0, meaning
we haven't detected any underlying ACPI topology or we have explicitly
disabled its use from the command-line with numa=noacpi.

acpi_table_print_srat_entry() and acpi_table_parse_srat() are only
referenced within drivers/acpi/numa.c, so we can mark them as static and
remove their prototypes from the header file.

Likewise, pxm_to_node_map[] and node_to_pxm_map[] are only used within
drivers/acpi/numa.c, so we mark them as static and remove their externs
from the header file.

The automatic 'result' variable is unused in acpi_numa_init(), so it's
removed.

Thomas Gleixner 18de5bc4c1 clockevents: fix resume logic
We need to make sure, that the clockevent devices are resumed, before
the tick is resumed. The current resume logic does not guarantee this.

Add CLOCK_EVT_MODE_RESUME and call the set mode functions of the clock
event devices before resuming the tick / oneshot functionality.

Fixup the existing users.

Thanks to Nigel Cunningham for tracking down a long standing thinko,
which affected the jinxed VAIO.

Jan Harkes d3fec424b2 coda: remove CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcalls
This is an variation on the patch sent by Christoph Hellwig which kills
file_count abuse by the Coda kernel module by moving the coda_flush
functionality into coda_release.  However part of reason we were using the
coda_flush callback was to allow Coda to pass errors that occur during
writeback from the userspace cache manager back to close().

As Al Viro explained on linux-fsdevel, it is impossible to guarantee that
such errors can in fact be returned back to the caller.  There are many
cases where the last reference to a file is not released by the close
system call and it is also impossible to pick some close as a 'last-close'
and delay it until all other references have been destroyed.

The CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcall combination is clearly a broken design,
and it is better to remove it completely.
