Suresh Siddha 8e221b6db4 x86: Avoid unnecessary __clear_user() and xrstor in signal handling
fxsave/xsave doesn't touch all the bytes in the memory layout used by
these instructions. Specifically SW reserved (bytes 464..511) fields
in the fxsave frame and the reserved fields in the xsave header.

To present a clean context for the signal handling, just clear these fields
instead of clearing the complete fxsave/xsave memory layout, when we dump these
registers directly to the user signal frame.

Also avoid the call to second xrstor (which inits the state not passed
in the signal frame) in restore_user_xstate() if all the state has already
been restored by the first xrstor.

These changes improve the performance of signal handling(by ~3-5% as measured
by the lat_sig).

Cyrill Gorcunov 39ef13a4ac perf, x86: P4 PMU -- redesign cache events
To support cache events we have reserved the low 6 bits in
hw_perf_event::config (which is a part of CCCR register
configuration actually).

These bits represent Replay Event mertic enumerated in
enum P4_PEBS_METRIC. The caller should not care about
which exact bits should be set and how -- the caller
just chooses one P4_PEBS_METRIC entity and puts it into
the config. The kernel will track it and set appropriate
additional MSR registers (metrics) when needed.

The reason for this redesign was the PEBS enable bit, which
should not be set until DS (and PEBS sampling) support will
be implemented properly.

TODO
====

 - PEBS sampling (note it's tricky and works with _one_ counter only
   so for HT machines it will be not that easy to handle both threads)

 - tracking of PEBS registers state, a user might need to turn
   PEBS off completely (ie no PEBS enable, no UOP_tag) but some
   other event may need it, such events clashes and should not
   run simultaneously, at moment we just don't support such events

 - eventually export user space bits in separate header which will
   allow user apps to configure raw events more conveniently.

Ingo Molnar 0a54cec0c2 Merge branch 'linus' into core/rcu
Conflicts:
	fs/fs-writeback.c

Merge reason: Resolve the conflict

Note, i picked the version from Linus's tree, which effectively reverts
the fs-writeback.c bits of:

  b97181f: fs: remove all rcu head initializations, except on_stack initializations

As the upstream changes to this file changed this code heavily and the
first attempt to resolve the conflict resulted in a non-booting kernel.
It's safer to re-try this portion of the commit cleanly.

Frederic Weisbecker a1e80fafc9 x86: Send a SIGTRAP for user icebp traps
Before we had a generic breakpoint layer, x86 used to send a
sigtrap for any debug event that happened in userspace,
except if it was caused by lazy dr7 switches.

Currently we only send such signal for single step or breakpoint
events.

However, there are three other kind of debug exceptions:

- debug register access detected: trigger an exception if the
  next instruction touches the debug registers. We don't use
  it.
- task switch, but we don't use tss.
- icebp/int01 trap. This instruction (0xf1) is undocumented and
  generates an int 1 exception. Unlike single step through TF
  flag, it doesn't set the single step origin of the exception
  in dr6.

icebp then used to be reported in userspace using trap signals
but this have been incidentally broken with the new breakpoint
code. Reenable this. Since this is the only debug event that
doesn't set anything in dr6, this is all we have to check.

This fixes a regression in Wine where World Of Warcraft got broken
as it uses this for software protection checks purposes. And
probably other apps do.

Masami Hiramatsu 567a9fd867 kprobes/x86: Fix kprobes to skip prefixes correctly
Fix resume_execution() and is_IF_modifier() to skip x86
instruction prefixes correctly by using x86 instruction
attribute.

Without this fix, resume_execution() can't handle instructions
which have non-REX prefixes (REX prefixes are skipped). This
will cause unexpected kernel panic by hitting bad address when a
kprobe hits on two-byte ret (e.g. "repz ret" generated for
Athlon/K8 optimization), because it just checks "repz" and can't
recognize the "ret" instruction.

These prefixes can be found easily with x86 instruction
attribute. This patch introduces skip_prefixes() and uses it in
resume_execution() and is_IF_modifier() to skip prefixes.

Tejun Heo b71ab8c202 workqueue: increase max_active of keventd and kill current_is_keventd()

it which means that keventd now can process upto WQ_MAX_ACTIVE / 2 - 1
works concurrently.  Unless some combination can result in dependency
loop longer than max_active, deadlock won't happen and thus it's
unnecessary to check whether current_is_keventd() before trying to

Frederic Weisbecker 0c4519e825 x86: Set resume bit before returning from breakpoint exception
Instruction breakpoints trigger before the instruction executes,
and returning back from the breakpoint handler brings us again
to the instruction that breakpointed. This naturally bring to
a breakpoint recursion.

To solve this, x86 has the Resume Bit trick. When the cpu flags
have the RF flag set, the next instruction won't trigger any
instruction breakpoint, and once this instruction is executed,
RF is cleared back.

This let's us jump back to the instruction that triggered the
breakpoint without recursion.

Use this when an instruction breakpoint triggers.

Andres Salomon fd699c7655 x86, olpc: Add support for calling into OpenFirmware
Add support for saving OFW's cif, and later calling into it to run OFW
commands.  OFW remains resident in memory, living within virtual range
0xff800000 - 0xffc00000.  A single page directory entry points to the
pgdir that OFW actually uses, so rather than saving the entire page
table, we grab and install that one entry permanently in the kernel's
page table.

This is currently only used by the OLPC XO.  Note that this particular
calling convention breaks PAE and PAT, and so cannot be used on newer
x86 hardware.

Eric W. Biederman a4384df3e2 x86, irq: Rename gsi_end gsi_top, and fix off by one errors
When I introduced the global variable gsi_end I thought gsi_end on
io_apics was one past the end of the gsi range for the io_apic.  After
it was pointed out the the range on io_apics was inclusive I changed
my global variable to match.  That was a big mistake.  Inclusive
semantics without a range start cannot describe the case when no gsi's
are allocated.  Describing the case where no gsi's are allocated is
important in sfi.c and mpparse.c so that we can assign gsi numbers
instead of blindly copying the gsi assignments the BIOS has done as we
do in the acpi case.

To keep from getting the global variable confused with the gsi range
end rename it gsi_top.

To allow describing the case where no gsi's are allocated have gsi_top
be one place the highest gsi number seen in the system.

Oleg Nesterov 147ec4d236 x86: Make save_stack_address() !CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER friendly
If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n, print_context_stack() shouldn't neglect the
non-reliable addresses on stack, this is all we have if dump_trace(bp)
is called with the wrong or zero bp.

For example, /proc/pid/stack doesn't work if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n.

This patch obviously has no effect if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y, otherwise
it reverts 1650743c "x86: don't save unreliable stack trace entries".

Also, remove the unnecessary type-cast.

A simple flag test instead of alternative instructions was choosen

Cliff Wickman 450a007eeb x86, UV: BAU broadcast to the local hub
Make the Broadcast Assist Unit driver use the BAU for TLB
shootdowns of cpu's on the local uvhub.

It was previously thought that IPI might be faster to the cpu's
on the local hub.  But the IPI operation would have to follow
the completion of the BAU broadcast anyway.  So we broadcast to
the local uvhub in all cases except when the current cpu was the
only local cpu in the mask.

This simplifies uv_flush_send_and_wait() in that it returns
either all shootdowns complete, or none.

Adjust the statistics to account for shootdowns on the local
uvhub.

Stephane Eranian 90151c35b1 perf_events: Fix event scheduling issues introduced by transactional API
The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific
code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at
least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog,  and were
over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was
showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more
often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though
harder to expose.

The issues were:

 - group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path

 - cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing
   actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot
   update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In
   case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back.

 - in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called
   and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg.
   But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch
   HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you
   could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which
   did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1.

The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems.

First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the
transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is
necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all
event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events.

Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in
group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations
symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction
and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag.

With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned
system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

Kay Sievers 578454ff7e driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loading
This adds:
  alias: devname:<name>
to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading
of the kernel module when the device node is accessed.

Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too
much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common
cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty
useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts.

The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The
program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory:
  $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d-dirty/modules.devname
  # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading.
  microcode cpu/microcode c10:184
  fuse fuse c10:229
  ppp_generic ppp c108:0
  tun net/tun c10:200
  dm_mod mapper/control c10:235

Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the
static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules
get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed:
  $ /sbin/udevd --debug
  ...
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200
  static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235
  udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666
  udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666

A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow
the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run
a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor
numbers.

Note:
The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance*
device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited
systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a
control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of
device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used.

This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized
kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to
paper-over broken concepts. Thanks! :)

Peter Zijlstra 87f44bbc24 perf, trace: Fix !x86 build bug
Patch b7e2ecef92 (perf, trace: Optimize tracepoints by removing
IRQ-disable from perf/tracepoint interaction) made the
unfortunate mistake of assuming the world is x86 only, correct
this.

The problem was that perf_fetch_caller_regs() did
local_save_flags() into regs->flags, and I re-used that to
remove another local_save_flags(), forgetting !x86 doesn't have
regs->flags.

Do the reverse, remove the local_save_flags() from
perf_fetch_caller_regs() and let the ftrace site do the
local_save_flags() instead.

Bits set in cpu_possible_mask prior to the execution of
prefill_possible_map() (i.e.  when parsing ACPI or MPS tables) would
prevent the SMP alternatives logic from switching to UP mode, plus
unnecessary setup of per-CPU data for CPUs that can never come online.

Additionally, without CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU disabled CPUs can never come
online, and hence setting cpu_possible_mask bits for them is again a
simple waste of resources.

Kerstin Jonsson 8c3ba8d049 x86, apic: ack all pending irqs when crashed/on kexec
When the SMP kernel decides to crash_kexec() the local APICs may have
pending interrupts in their vector tables.

The setup routine for the local APIC has a deficient mechanism for
clearing these interrupts, it only handles interrupts that has already
been dispatched to the local core for servicing (the ISR register) safely,
it doesn't consider lower prioritized queued interrupts stored in the IRR
register.

If you have more than one pending interrupt within the same 32 bit word in
the LAPIC vector table registers you may find yourself entering the IO
APIC setup with pending interrupts left in the LAPIC.  This is a situation
for wich the IO APIC setup is not prepared.  Depending of what/which
interrupt vector/vectors are stuck in the APIC tables your system may show
various degrees of malfunctioning.  That was the reason why the
check_timer() failed in our system, the timer interrupts was blocked by
pending interrupts from the old kernel when routed trough the IO APIC.

Additional comment from Jiri Bohac:
==============
If this should go into stable release,
I'd add some kind of limit on the number of iterations, just to be safe from
hard to debug lock-ups:

+if (loops++  > MAX_LOOPS) {
+        printk("LAPIC pending clean-up")
+        break;
+}
 while (queued);

with MAX_LOOPS something like 1E9 this would leave plenty of time for the
pending IRQs to be cleared and would and still cause at most a second of delay
if the loop were to lock-up for whatever reason.

[trenn@suse.de:

V2: Use tsc if avail to bail out after 1 sec due to possible virtual
    apic_read calls which may take rather long (suggested by: Avi Kivity
    <avi@redhat.com>) If no tsc is available bail out quickly after
    cpu_khz, if we broke out too early and still have irqs pending (which
    should never happen?) we still get a WARN_ON...

V3: - Fixed indentation -> checkpatch clean
    - max_loops must be signed

V4: - Fix typo, mixed up tsc and ntsc in first rdtscll() call

V5: Adjust WARN_ON() condition to also catch error in cpu_has_tsc case]

Prior to smp_init() it is possible to simply write to the dr registers

The kernel debugger can operate well before mm_init(), but the x86
hardware breakpoint code which uses the perf api requires that the
kernel allocators are initialized.

This means the kernel debug core needs to provide an optional arch
specific call back to allow the initialization functions to run after
the kernel has been further initialized.

The kdb shell already had a similar restriction with an early
initialization and late initialization.  The kdb_init() was moved into
the debug core's version of the late init which is called
dbg_late_init();

Jason Wessel dcc7871128 kgdb: core changes to support kdb
These are the minimum changes to the kgdb core in order to enable an
API to connect a new front end (kdb) to the debug core.

This patch introduces the dbg_kdb_mode variable controls where the
user level I/O is routed.  It will be routed to the gdbstub (kgdb) or
to the kdb front end which is a simple shell available over the kgdboc
connection.

You can switch back and forth between kdb or the gdb stub mode of
operation dynamically.  From gdb stub mode you can blindly type
"$3#33", or from the kdb mode you can enter "kgdb" to switch to the
gdb stub.

The logic in the debug core depends on kdb to look for the typical gdb
connection sequences and return immediately with KGDB_PASS_EVENT if a
gdb serial command sequence is detected.  That should allow a
reasonably seamless transition between kdb -> gdb without leaving the
kernel exception state.  The two gdb serial queries that kdb is
responsible for detecting are the "?" and "qSupported" packets.

Huang Ying 482908b49e ACPI, APEI, Use ERST for persistent storage of MCE
Traditionally, fatal MCE will cause Linux print error log to console
then reboot. Because MCE registers will preserve their content after
warm reboot, the hardware error can be logged to disk or network after
reboot. But system may fail to warm reboot, then you may lose the
hardware error log. ERST can help here. Through saving the hardware
error log into flash via ERST before go panic, the hardware error log
can be gotten from the flash after system boot successful again.

The fatal MCE processing procedure with ERST involved is as follow:

- Hardware detect error, MCE raised
- MCE read MCE registers, check error severity (fatal), prepare error record
- Write MCE error record into flash via ERST
- Go panic, then trigger system reboot
- System reboot, /sbin/mcelog run, it reads /dev/mcelog to check flash
  for error record of previous boot via ERST, and output and clear
  them if available
- /sbin/mcelog logs error records into disk or network

ERST only accepts CPER record format, but there is no pre-defined CPER
section can accommodate all information in struct mce, so a customized
section type is defined to hold struct mce inside a CPER record as an
error section.

Huang Ying d334a49113 ACPI, APEI, Generic Hardware Error Source memory error support
Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report platform
hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It works in so called
"Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware errors are reported to
firmware firstly, then reported to Linux by firmware. This way, some
non-standard hardware error registers or non-standard hardware link
can be checked by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
information for Linux.

Now, only SCI notification type and memory errors are supported. More
notification type and hardware error type will be added later. These
memory errors are reported to user space through /dev/mcelog via
faking a corrected Machine Check, so that the error memory page can be

On some machines, Machine Check can not report physical address for
some corrected memory errors, but GHES can do that. So this simplified
GHES is implemented firstly.

Jacob Pan a875c01944 x86, mrst: add more timer config options
Always-on local APIC timer (ARAT) has been introduced to Medfield, along
with the platform APB timers we have more timer configuration options
between Moorestown and Medfield.

This patch adds run-time detection of avaiable timer features so that
we can treat Medfield as a variant of Moorestown and set up the optimal
timer options for each platform. i.e.

Medfield: per cpu always-on local APIC timer
Moorestown: per cpu APB timer

Manual override is possible via cmdline option x86_mrst_timer.

Medfield is the follow-up of Moorestown, it is treated under the same

At start_kernel() level, this patch moves init_scattered_cpuid_features()

Glauber Costa 838815a787 x86: KVM guest: Try using new kvm clock msrs
We now added a new set of clock-related msrs in replacement of the old
ones. In theory, we could just try to use them and get a return value
indicating they do not exist, due to our use of kvm_write_msr_save.

However, kvm clock registration happens very early, and if we ever
try to write to a non-existant MSR, we raise a lethal #GP, since our
idt handlers are not in place yet.

So this patch tests for a cpuid feature exported by the host to
decide which set of msrs are supported.

Glauber Costa 489fb490db x86, paravirt: Add a global synchronization point for pvclock
In recent stress tests, it was found that pvclock-based systems
could seriously warp in smp systems. Using ingo's time-warp-test.c,
I could trigger a scenario as bad as 1.5mi warps a minute in some systems.
(to be fair, it wasn't that bad in most of them). Investigating further, I
found out that such warps were caused by the very offset-based calculation
pvclock is based on.

This happens even on some machines that report constant_tsc in its tsc flags,
specially on multi-socket ones.

Two reads of the same kernel timestamp at approx the same time, will likely
have tsc timestamped in different occasions too. This means the delta we
calculate is unpredictable at best, and can probably be smaller in a cpu
that is legitimately reading clock in a forward ocasion.

Some adjustments on the host could make this window less likely to happen,
but still, it pretty much poses as an intrinsic problem of the mechanism.

A while ago, I though about using a shared variable anyway, to hold clock
last state, but gave up due to the high contention locking was likely
to introduce, possibly rendering the thing useless on big machines. I argue,
however, that locking is not necessary.

We do a read-and-return sequence in pvclock, and between read and return,
the global value can have changed. However, it can only have changed
by means of an addition of a positive value. So if we detected that our
clock timestamp is less than the current global, we know that we need to
return a higher one, even though it is not exactly the one we compared to.

OTOH, if we detect we're greater than the current time source, we atomically
replace the value with our new readings. This do causes contention on big
boxes (but big here means *BIG*), but it seems like a good trade off, since
it provide us with a time source guaranteed to be stable wrt time warps.

After this patch is applied, I don't see a single warp in time during 5 days
of execution, in any of the machines I saw them before.

Glauber Costa 424c32f1aa x86, paravirt: Enable pvclock flags in vcpu_time_info structure
This patch removes one padding byte and transform it into a flags
field. New versions of guests using pvclock will query these flags
upon each read.

Flags, however, will only be interpreted when the guest decides to.
It uses the pvclock_valid_flags function to signal that a specific
set of flags should be taken into consideration. Which flags are valid
are usually devised via HV negotiation.

Jacob Pan fea24e28c6 x86, mrst: add nop functions to x86_init mpparse functions
Moorestown does not have BIOS provided MP tables, we can save some time
by avoiding scaning of these tables. e.g.
[    0.000000] Scan SMP from c0000000 for 1024 bytes.
[    0.000000] Scan SMP from c009fc00 for 1024 bytes.
[    0.000000] Scan SMP from c00f0000 for 65536 bytes.
[    0.000000] Scan SMP from c00bfff0 for 1024 bytes.

Searching EBDA with the base at 0x40E will also result in random pointer
deferencing within 1MB. This can be a problem in Lincroft if the pointer
hits VGA area and VGA mode is not enabled.

Don Zickus cafcd80d21 lockup_detector: Cross arch compile fixes
Combining the softlockup and hardlockup code causes watchdog.c
to build even without the hardlockup detection support.

So if an arch, that has the previous and the new nmi watchdog
implementations cohabiting, wants to know if the generic one
is in use, CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR is not a reliable check.
We need to use CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR instead.

Fixes:
	kernel/built-in.o: In function `touch_nmi_watchdog':
	(.text+0x449bc): multiple definition of `touch_nmi_watchdog'
	arch/sparc/kernel/built-in.o:(.text+0x11b28): first defined here

Cyrill Gorcunov 1ff3d7d792 x86, perf: P4 PMU - fix counters management logic
Jaswinder reported this #GP:

 | Message from syslogd@ht at May 14 09:39:32 ...
 | kernel:[  314.908612] EIP: [<c100ccca>]
 | x86_perf_event_set_period+0x19d/0x1b2 SS:ESP 0068:edac3d70
 |

Ming has narrowed it down to a comparision issue
between arguments with different sizes and
signs. As result event index reached a wrong
value which in turn led to a GP fault.

At the same time it was found that p4_next_cntr
has broken logic and should return the counter
index only if it was not yet borrowed for
another event.

The L3 cache index disable feature of AMD CPUs has to be disabled if the
kernel is running as guest on top of a hypervisor because northbridge
devices are not available to the guest. Currently, this fixes a boot
crash on top of Xen. In the future this will become an issue on KVM as
well.

Check if northbridge devices are present and do not enable the feature
if there are none.

Don Zickus 58687acba5 lockup_detector: Combine nmi_watchdog and softlockup detector
The new nmi_watchdog (which uses the perf event subsystem) is very
similar in structure to the softlockup detector.  Using Ingo's
suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file:
kernel/watchdog.c.

Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup
detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every
60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups.

To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I
implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event
overflow event.  If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is
most likely in trouble.

To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the
previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires.
If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the
warning is printed to the console.

I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths
work.

V2:
- cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination
- surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI
- seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem
- re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space
- added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases
- removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events

V3:
- comment cleanups
- drop support for older softlockup code
- per_cpu cleanups
- completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector
- use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection
- #ifdef cleanups
- rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR
- documentation additions

V4:
- documentation fixes
- convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var
- powerpc compile fixes

V5:
- split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups

TODO:
- figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call
  (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period

Matthew Garrett b6dacf63e9 ACPI: Unconditionally set SCI_EN on resume
The ACPI spec tells us that the firmware will reenable SCI_EN on resume.
Reality disagrees in some cases. The ACPI spec tells us that the only way
to set SCI_EN is via an SMM call.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13745 shows us that doing so
may break machines. Tracing the ACPI calls made by Windows shows that it
unconditionally sets SCI_EN on resume with a direct register write, and
therefore the overwhelming probability is that everything is fine with
this behaviour.

Masami Hiramatsu 829e924585 kprobes/x86: Fix removed int3 checking order
Fix kprobe/x86 to check removed int3 when failing to get kprobe
from hlist. Since we have a time window between checking int3
exists on probed address and getting kprobe on that address,
we can have following scenario:

 -------
 CPU1                     CPU2
 hit int3
 check int3 exists
                          remove int3
                          remove kprobe from hlist
 get kprobe from hlist
 no kprobe->OOPS!
 -------

This patch moves int3 checking if there is no kprobe on that
address for fixing this problem as follows:

 ------
 CPU1                     CPU2
 hit int3
                          remove int3
                          remove kprobe from hlist
 get kprobe from hlist
 no kprobe->check int3 exists

Avi Kivity c9ad488289 x86: Eliminate TS_XSAVE
The fpu code currently uses current->thread_info->status & TS_XSAVE as
a way to distinguish between XSAVE capable processors and older processors.
The decision is not really task specific; instead we use the task status to
avoid a global memory reference - the value should be the same across all
threads.

Eliminate this tie-in into the task structure by using an alternative
instruction keyed off the XSAVE cpu feature; this results in shorter and
faster code, without introducing a global memory reference.

Due to the fact that p4 counters are shared between HT threads
we synthetically divide the whole set of counters into two
non-intersected subsets. And while we're "borrowing" counters
from these subsets we should not be preempted (well, strictly
speaking in p4_hw_config we just pre-set reference to the
subset which allow to save some cycles in schedule routine
if it happens on the same cpu). So use get_cpu/put_cpu pair.

Also p4_pmu_schedule_events should use smp_processor_id rather
than raw_ version. This allow us to catch up preemption issue
(if there will ever be).

H. Peter Anvin e08cae4181 x86: Clean up the hypervisor layer
Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops
structure instead of an enumeration with if statements.

The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing
the pointer value in x86_hyper.

The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable
(it's per-system state, not per-CPU state).  Being a normal bss
variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so
can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without
additional qualification.

Peter Zijlstra ab608344bc perf, x86: Improve the PEBS ABI
Rename perf_event_attr::precise to perf_event_attr::precise_ip and
widen it to 2 bits. This new field describes the required precision of
the PERF_SAMPLE_IP field:

  0 - SAMPLE_IP can have arbitrary skid
  1 - SAMPLE_IP must have constant skid
  2 - SAMPLE_IP requested to have 0 skid
  3 - SAMPLE_IP must have 0 skid

And modify the Intel PEBS code accordingly. The PEBS implementation
now supports up to precise_ip == 2, where we perform the IP fixup.

Also s/PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT/&_IP/ to clarify its meaning, this bit
should be set for each PERF_SAMPLE_IP field known to match the actual
instruction triggering the event.

This new scheme allows for a PEBS mode that uses the buffer for more
than a single event.

Eric W. Biederman 988856ee16 x86, acpi/irq: Handle isa irqs that are not identity mapped to gsi's.
ACPI irq source overrides are allowed for the 16 isa irqs and are
allowed to map any gsi to any isa irq.  A few motherboards have been
seen to take advantage of this and put the isa irqs on the 2nd or
3rd ioapic.  This causes some problems, most notably the fact
that we can not use any gsi < 16.

To correct this move the gsis that are not isa irqs and have
a gsi number < 16 into the linux irq space just past gsi_end.
This is what the es7000 platform is doing today.  Moving only the
low 16 gsis above the rest of the gsi's only penalizes weird
platforms, leaving sane acpi implementations with a 1-1 mapping
of gsis and irqs.

Eric W. Biederman cf7500c0ea x86, ioapic: In mpparse use mp_register_ioapic
Long ago MP_ioapic_info was the primary way of setting up our
ioapic data structures and mp_register_ioapic was a compatibility
shim for acpi code.  Now the situation is reversed and
and mp_register_ioapic is the primary way of setting up our
ioapic data structures.

Keep the setting up of ioapic data structures uniform by
having mp_register_ioapic call mp_register_ioapic.

This changes a few fields:

- type: is now hardset to MP_IOAPIC but type had to
  bey MP_IOAPIC or MP_ioapic_info would not have been called.

- flags: is now hard coded to MPC_APIC_USABLE.
  We require flags to contain at least MPC_APIC_USEBLE in
  MP_ioapic_info and we don't ever examine flags so dropping
  a few flags that might possibly exist that we have never
  used is harmless.

- apicaddr: Unchanged

- apicver: Read from the ioapic instead of using the cached
  hardware value in the MP table.  The real hardware value
  will be more accurate.

- apicid: Now verified to be unique and changed if it is not.
  If the BIOS got this right this is a noop.  If the BIOS did
  not fixing things appears to be the better solution.

This adds gsi_base and gsi_end values to our ioapics defined with
the mpatable, which will make our lives simpler later since
we can always assume gsi_base and gsi_end are valid.

io_apic_redir_entries has a huge conceptual bug.  It returns the maximum
redirection entry not the number of redirection entries.  Which simply
does not match what the name of the function.  This just caught me
and it caught  Feng Tang, and  Len Brown when they wrote sfi_parse_ioapic.

Modify io_apic_redir_entries to actually return the number of redirection
entries, and fix the callers so that they properly handle receiving the
number of the number of redirection table entries, instead of the
number of redirection table entries less one.

While the usage in sfi.c does not show up in this patch it is fixed
by virtue of the fact that io_apic_redir_entries now has the semantics
sfi_parse_ioapic most reasonably expects.

that isa irqs identity map to the first 16 acpi global system intereupts.
In most instances that assumption is correct as that is the required
behaviour in dual i8259 mode and the default behavior in ioapic mode.

However there are some systems out there that take advantage of acpis
interrupt remapping  for the isa irqs to have a completely different
mapping of isa_irq to gsi.

Introduce acpi_isa_irq_to_gsi to perform this mapping explicitly in the
code that needs it.  Initially this will be just the current assumed
identity mapping to ensure it's introduction does not cause regressions.

Frederic Weisbecker b2812d031d hw-breakpoints: Change/Enforce some breakpoints policies
The current policies of breakpoints in x86 and SH are the following:

- task bound breakpoints can only break on userspace addresses
- cpu wide breakpoints can only break on kernel addresses

The former rule prevents ptrace breakpoints to be set to trigger on
kernel addresses, which is good. But as a side effect, we can't
breakpoint on kernel addresses for task bound breakpoints.

The latter rule simply makes no sense, there is no reason why we
can't set breakpoints on userspace while performing cpu bound
profiles.

We want the following new policies:

- task bound breakpoint can set userspace address breakpoints, with
no particular privilege required.
- task bound breakpoints can set kernelspace address breakpoints but
must be privileged to do that.
- cpu bound breakpoints can do what they want as they are privileged
already.

To implement these new policies, this patch checks if we are dealing
with a kernel address breakpoint, if so and if the exclude_kernel
parameter is set, we tell the user that the breakpoint is invalid,
which makes a good generic ptrace protection.
If we don't have exclude_kernel, ensure the user has the right
privileges as kernel breakpoints are quite sensitive (risk of
trap recursion attacks and global performance impacts).

  double function declaration]

Thomas Gleixner 30a564be9d x86, hpet: Restrict read back to affected ATI chipsets
After programming the HPET, we do a readback as a workaround for
ATI/SBx00 chipsets as a synchronization.  Unfortunately this triggers
an erratum in newer ICH chipsets (ICH9+) where reading the comparator
immediately after the write returns the old value.  Furthermore, as
always, I/O reads are bad for performance.

Therefore, restrict the readback to the chipsets that need it, or, for
debugging purposes, when we are running with hpet=verbose.

Dmitry Torokhov 453dc65931 VMware Balloon driver
This is a standalone version of VMware Balloon driver.  Ballooning is a
technique that allows hypervisor dynamically limit the amount of memory
available to the guest (with guest cooperation).  In the overcommit
scenario, when hypervisor set detects that it needs to shuffle some
memory, it instructs the driver to allocate certain number of pages, and
the underlying memory gets returned to the hypervisor.  Later hypervisor
may return memory to the guest by reattaching memory to the pageframes and
instructing the driver to "deflate" balloon.

We are submitting a standalone driver because KVM maintainer (Avi Kivity)
expressed opinion (rightly) that our transport does not fit well into
virtqueue paradigm and thus it does not make much sense to integrate with
virtio.

There were also some concerns whether current ballooning technique is the
right thing.  If there appears a better framework to achieve this we are
prepared to evaluate and switch to using it, but in the meantime we'd like
to get this driver upstream.

We want to get the driver accepted in distributions so that users do not
have to deal with an out-of-tree module and many distributions have
"upstream first" requirement.

The driver has been shipping for a number of years and users running on
VMware platform will have it installed as part of VMware Tools even if it
will not come from a distribution, thus there should not be additional
risk in pulling the driver into mainline.  The driver will only activate
if host is VMware so everyone else should not be affected at all.

H. Peter Anvin 7a0fc404ae x86: Disable large pages on CPUs with Atom erratum AAE44
Atom erratum AAE44/AAF40/AAG38/AAH41:

"If software clears the PS (page size) bit in a present PDE (page
directory entry), that will cause linear addresses mapped through this
PDE to use 4-KByte pages instead of using a large page after old TLB
entries are invalidated. Due to this erratum, if a code fetch uses
this PDE before the TLB entry for the large page is invalidated then
it may fetch from a different physical address than specified by
either the old large page translation or the new 4-KByte page
translation. This erratum may also cause speculative code fetches from
incorrect addresses."

[http://download.intel.com/design/processor/specupdt/319536.pdf]

Where as commit 211b3d03c7 seems to
workaround errata AAH41 (mixed 4K TLBs) it reduces the window of
opportunity for the bug to occur and does not totally remove it.  This
patch disables mixed 4K/4MB page tables totally avoiding the page
splitting and not tripping this processor issue.

This is based on an original patch by Colin King.

H. Peter Anvin 7ce5a2b9bb x86-64: Clear a 64-bit FS/GS base on fork if selector is nonzero
When we do a thread switch, we clear the outgoing FS/GS base if the
corresponding selector is nonzero.  This is taken by __switch_to() as
an entry invariant; it does not verify that it is true on entry.
However, copy_thread() doesn't enforce this constraint, which can
result in inconsistent results after fork().

Make copy_thread() match the behavior of __switch_to().
