2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: x86_64 - Fix FS/GS registers for VT executionZachary Amsden
Initialize FS and GS to __KERNEL_DS as well. The actual value of them is not important, but it is important to reload them in protected mode. At this time, they still retain the real mode values from initial boot. VT disallows execution of code under such conditions, which means hardware virtualization can not be used to boot the kernel on Intel platforms, making the boot time painfully slow. This requires moving the GS load before the load of GS_BASE, so just move all the segments loads there to keep them together in the code.

2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: Allow to run a program when a machine check event is detectedAndi Kleen
When a machine check event is detected (including a AMD RevF threshold overflow event) allow to run a "trigger" program. This allows user space to react to such events sooner. The trigger is configured using a new trigger entry in the machinecheck sysfs interface. It is currently shared between all CPUs. I also fixed the AMD threshold handler to run the machine check polling code immediately to actually log any events that might have caused the threshold interrupt. Also added some documentation for the mce sysfs interface. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: Tighten mce_amd driver MSR readsJan Beulich
while debugging an unrelated problem in Xen, I noticed odd reads from non-existent MSRs. Having now found time to look why these happen, I came up with below patch, which - prevents accessing MCi_MISCj with j > 0 when the block pointer in MCi_MISC0 is zero - accesses only contiguous MCi_MISCj until a non-implemented one is found - doesn't touch unimplemented blocks in mce_threshold_interrupt at all - gives names to two bits previously derived from MASK_VALID_HI (it took me some time to understand the code without this) The first three items, besides being apparently closer to the spec, should namely help cutting down on the time mce_threshold_interrupt() takes.

2007-02-13[PATCH] x86-64: Fix fake numa for x86_64 machines with big IO holeRohit Seth
This patch resolves the issue of running with numa=fake=X on kernel command line on x86_64 machines that have big IO hole. While calculating the size of each node now we look at the total hole size in that range. Previously there were nodes that only had IO holes in them causing kernel boot problems. We now use the NODE_MIN_SIZE (64MB) as the minimum size of memory that any node must have. We reduce the number of allocated nodes if the number of nodes specified on kernel command line results in any node getting memory smaller than NODE_MIN_SIZE. This change allows the extra memory to be incremented in NODE_MIN_SIZE granule and uniformly distribute among as many nodes (called big nodes) as possible.

2007-02-13[PATCH] i386: improve sched_clock() on i686Ingo Molnar
Clean up sched_clock() on i686: it will use the TSC if available and falls back to jiffies only if the user asked for it to be disabled via notsc or the CPU calibration code didnt figure out the right cpu_khz. This generally makes the scheduler timestamps more finegrained, on all hardware. (the current scheduler is pretty resistant against asynchronous sched_clock() values on different CPUs, it will allow at most up to a jiffy of jitter.) Also simplify sched_clock()'s check for TSC availability: propagate the desire and ability to use the TSC into the tsc_disable flag, previously this flag only indicated whether the notsc option was passed. This makes the rare low-res sched_clock() codepath a single branch off a read-mostly flag.

2007-02-13[PATCH] i386: add idle notifierStephane Eranian
Add a notifier mechanism to the low level idle loop. You can register a callback function which gets invoked on entry and exit from the low level idle loop. The low level idle loop is defined as the polling loop, low-power call, or the mwait instruction. Interrupts processed by the idle thread are not considered part of the low level loop. The notifier can be used to measure precisely how much is spent in useless execution (or low power mode). The perfmon subsystem uses it to turn on/off monitoring.

One part which can go in .init.text section and can be freed and other part which has to be non __init(init_post()). Now init() calls init_post() and init_post() does not call any functions present in .init sections. Hence getting rid of warnings.

2007-02-13[PATCH] i386: Profile pc badnessZachary Amsden
Profile_pc was broken when using paravirtualization because the assumption the kernel was running at CPL 0 was violated, causing bad logic to read a random value off the stack. The only way to be in kernel lock functions is to be in kernel code, so validate that assumption explicitly by checking the CS value. We don't want to be fooled by BIOS / APM segments and try to read those stacks, so only match KERNEL_CS. I moved some stuff in segment.h to make it prettier.

2007-02-13[PATCH] i386: vMI timer patchesZachary Amsden
VMI timer code. It works by taking over the local APIC clock when APIC is configured, which requires a couple hooks into the APIC code. The backend timer code could be commonized into the timer infrastructure, but there are some pieces missing (stolen time, in particular), and the exact semantics of when to do accounting for NO_IDLE need to be shared between different hypervisors as well. So for now, VMI timer is a separate module.

2007-02-13[PATCH] i386: paravirt CPU hypercall batching modeZachary Amsden
The VMI ROM has a mode where hypercalls can be queued and batched. This turns out to be a significant win during context switch, but must be done at a specific point before side effects to CPU state are visible to subsequent instructions. This is similar to the MMU batching hooks already provided. The same hooks could be used by the Xen backend to implement a context switch multicall. To explain a bit more about lazy modes in the paravirt patches, basically, the idea is that only one of lazy CPU or MMU mode can be active at any given time. Lazy MMU mode is similar to this lazy CPU mode, and allows for batching of multiple PTE updates (say, inside a remap loop), but to avoid keeping some kind of state machine about when to flush cpu or mmu updates, we just allow one or the other to be active. Although there is no real reason a more comprehensive scheme could not be implemented, there is also no demonstrated need for this extra complexity.

2007-02-13[PATCH] MM: page allocation hooks for VMI backendZachary Amsden
The VMI backend uses explicit page type notification to track shadow page tables. The allocation of page table roots is especially tricky. We need to clone the root for non-PAE mode while it is protected under the pgd lock to correctly copy the shadow. We don't need to allocate pgds in PAE mode, (PDPs in Intel terminology) as they only have 4 entries, and are cached entirely by the processor, which makes shadowing them rather simple. For base page table level allocation, pmd_populate provides the exact hook point we need. Also, we need to allocate pages when splitting a large page, and we must release pages before returning the page to any free pool. Despite being required with these slightly odd semantics for VMI, Xen also uses these hooks to determine the exact moment when page tables are created or released.
