If HW IOMMU initialization fails (Intel VT-d often does this,
typically due to BIOS bugs), we fall back to nommu. It doesn't
work for the majority since nowadays we have more than 4GB
memory so we must use swiotlb instead of nommu.
The problem is that it's too late to initialize swiotlb when HW
IOMMU initialization fails. We need to allocate swiotlb memory
earlier from bootmem allocator. Chris explained the issue in
detail:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125657444317079&w=2
The current x86 IOMMU initialization sequence is too complicated
and handling the above issue makes it more hacky.
This patch changes x86 IOMMU initialization sequence to handle
the above issue cleanly.
The new x86 IOMMU initialization sequence are:
1. we initialize the swiotlb (and setting swiotlb to 1) in the case
of (max_pfn > MAX_DMA32_PFN && !no_iommu). dma_ops is set to
swiotlb_dma_ops or nommu_dma_ops. if swiotlb usage is forced by
the boot option, we finish here.
2. we call the detection functions of all the IOMMUs
3. the detection function sets x86_init.iommu.iommu_init to the
IOMMU initialization function (so we can avoid calling the
initialization functions of all the IOMMUs needlessly).
4. if the IOMMU initialization function doesn't need to swiotlb
then sets swiotlb to zero (e.g. the initialization is
sucessful).
5. if we find that swiotlb is set to zero, we free swiotlb
resource.

This enables us to avoid printing swiotlb memory info when we
initialize swiotlb. After swiotlb initialization, we could find
that we don't need swiotlb.
This patch removes the code to print swiotlb memory info in
swiotlb_init() and exports the function to do that.

We call the detections functions of all the IOMMUs then all
their initialization functions. The latter is pointless since we
don't detect multiple different IOMMUs. What we need to do is
calling the initialization function of the detected IOMMU.
This adds iommu_init hook to x86_init_ops so if an IOMMU
detection function can set its initialization function to the
hook.

This patch cleans up pci_iommu_shutdown() a bit to use
x86_platform (similar to how IA64 initializes an IOMMU driver).
This adds iommu_shutdown() to x86_platform to avoid calling
every IOMMUs' shutdown functions in pci_iommu_shutdown() in
order. The IOMMU shutdown functions are platform specific (we
don't have multiple different IOMMU hardware) so the current way
is pointless.
An IOMMU driver sets x86_platform.iommu_shutdown to the shutdown
function if necessary.

This patch fixes two issues in the procfs stack information on
x86-64 linux.
The 32 bit loader compat_do_execve did not store stack
start. (this was figured out by Alexey Dobriyan).
The stack information on a x64_64 kernel always shows 0 kbyte
stack usage, because of a missing implementation of the KSTK_ESP
macro which always returned -1.
The new implementation now returns the right value.

Non-PAE 32-bit dump kernels may wrap an address around 4G and
poke unwanted space. ptes there are 32-bit long, and since
pfn << PAGE_SIZE may exceed this limit, high pfn bits are
cropped and wrong address mapped by kmap_atomic_pfn in
copy_oldmem_page.
Don't allow this behavior in non-PAE kdump kernels by checking
pfns passed into copy_oldmem_page. In the case of failure,
userspace process gets EFAULT.

The MCE initialization code explicitly says it doesn't handle
asymmetric configurations where different CPUs support different
numbers of MCE banks, and it prints a big warning in that case.
Therefore, printing the "mce: CPU supports <x> MCE banks"
message into the kernel log for every CPU is pure redundancy
that clutters the log significantly for systems with lots of
CPUs.

A few parts of the uv_hub_info structure are initialized
incorrectly.
- n_val is being loaded with m_val.
- gpa_mask is initialized with a bytes instead of an unsigned long.
- Handle the case where none of the alias registers are used.
Lastly I converted the bau over to using the uv_hub_info->m_val
which is the correct value.
Without this patch, booting a large configuration hits a
problem where the upper bits of the gnode affect the pnode
and the bau will not operate.

The real bug producing LatencyTop latencies has been fixed in:
f5dc375: sched: Update the clock of runqueue select_task_rq() selected
And the commit being reverted here triggers local timer processing
from every device IRQ. If device IRQs come in at a high frequency,
this could cause a performance regression.
The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency
as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more
often.

Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a
problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also
reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using
iwlagn.
It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get
checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic
timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other
wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible.
The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer
interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that:
1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less
2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because
the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up.
I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the
original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported
success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec
range.

Make decoding of MCEs happen only on AMD hardware by registering a
non-default callback only on CPU families which support it.
While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE
code i also noticed a few other things and made the following
cleanups/fixes:
- Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not
good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be
overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not
good, obviously.
- The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h.
- Added the more correct fallback printk of:
No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type.
Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode.
On CPUs that dont have a decoder.
- Made the surrounding code more readable.
Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback -
without having to check the CPU versions during the printout
itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the
decode-print function.
(there's no unregister needed as this is core code.)
version -v2 by Borislav Petkov:
- add K8 to the set of supported CPUs
- always build in edac_mce_amd since we use an early_initcall now
- fix checkpatch warnings

Commit c953094 ("early_printk: Allow more than one early console")
introduced a regression in the parsing of the earlyprintk= kernel
arguments.
If you specify "earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200" as a kernel
argument, the "serial,ttyS" should be parsed as a single argument
and not as "serial" and then "ttyS".
Also update the documentation to reflect you can specify the ttyS
directly without the "serial" argument.

Conditionaly compile cmpxchg8b_emu.o and EXPORT_SYMBOL(cmpxchg8b_emu).
This reduces the kernel size a bit.

* 'sched-fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
sched_clock: Fix atomicity/continuity bug by using cmpxchg64()
x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()
|
|
cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code.
cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there,
but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking.
This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that
uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on
all modern systems.
Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback
is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems
are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

This reverts commit 22223c9b417be5fd0ab2cf9ad17eb7bd1e19f7b9, as
requested by Andi Kleen:
"Obviously kernels compiled with AMD support can still run on non AMD
systems, so messages like this can never be removed at compile time."

Don't disable ARB_DISABLE when the familary ID is 0x0F.

This was a 2.6.31 regression, and so this patch
needs to be applied to 2.6.31.stable
