2006-09-26[PATCH] Add a missing check for irq flags tracing in NMIAndi Kleen
NMIs are not supposed to track the irq flags, but TRACE_IRQS_IRETQ did it anyways. Add a check. Cc: mingo@elte.hu Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

2006-09-26[PATCH] Remove some cruft in apic id checking during processor setupAndi Kleen
- Remove a define that was used only once - Remove the too large APIC ID check because we always support the full 8bit range of APICs. - Restructure code a bit to be simpler. Cc: len.brown@intel.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2006-09-26[PATCH] Remove APIC version/cpu capability mpparse checking/printingAndi Kleen
ACPI went to great trouble to get the APIC version and CPU capabilities of different CPUs before passing them to the mpparser. But all that data was used was to print it out. Actually it even faked some data based on the boot cpu, not on the actual CPU being booted. Remove all this code because it's not needed.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Fix pte_exec/mkexec and use it in change_page_attr()Andi Kleen
Fix the pte_exec/mkexec page table accessor functions to really use the NX bit. Previously they only checked the USER bit, but weren't actually used for anything. Then use them in change_page_attr() to manipulate the NX bit properly. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

2006-09-26[PATCH] Remove safe_smp_processor_id()Andi Kleen
And replace all users with ordinary smp_processor_id. The function was originally added to get some basic oops information out even if the GS register was corrupted. However that didn't work for some anymore because printk is needed to print the oops and it uses smp_processor_id() already. Also GS register corruptions are not particularly common anymore. This also helps the Xen port which would otherwise need to do this in a special way because it can't access the local APIC.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Don't force reserve the 640k-1MB rangeAndi Kleen
From i386 x86-64 inherited code to force reserve the 640k-1MB area. That was needed on some old systems. But we generally trust the e820 map to be correct on 64bit systems and mark all areas that are not memory correctly. This patch will allow to use the real memory in there. Or rather the only way to find out if it's still needed is to try. So far I'm optimistic. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

2006-09-26[PATCH] non lazy "sleazy" fpu implementationArjan van de Ven
Right now the kernel on x86-64 has a 100% lazy fpu behavior: after *every* context switch a trap is taken for the first FPU use to restore the FPU context lazily. This is of course great for applications that have very sporadic or no FPU use (since then you avoid doing the expensive save/restore all the time). However for very frequent FPU users... you take an extra trap every context switch. The patch below adds a simple heuristic to this code: After 5 consecutive context switches of FPU use, the lazy behavior is disabled and the context gets restored every context switch. If the app indeed uses the FPU, the trap is avoided. (the chance of the 6th time slice using FPU after the previous 5 having done so are quite high obviously). After 256 switches, this is reset and lazy behavior is returned (until there are 5 consecutive ones again). The reason for this is to give apps that do longer bursts of FPU use still the lazy behavior back after some time.

Now for a completely different but trivial approach. I just boot tested it with 255 CPUS and everything worked. Currently everything (except module data) we place in the per cpu area we know about at compile time. So instead of allocating a fixed size for the per_cpu area allocate the number of bytes we need plus a fixed constant for to be used for modules.

2006-09-26[PATCH] i386: Descriptor and trap table cleanups.Rusty Russell
The implementation comes from Zach's [RFC, PATCH 10/24] i386 Vmi descriptor changes: Descriptor and trap table cleanups. Add cleanly written accessors for IDT and GDT gates so the subarch may override them. Note that this allows the hypervisor to transparently tweak the DPL of the descriptors as well as the RPL of segments in those descriptors, with no unnecessary kernel code modification. It also allows the hypervisor implementation of the VMI to tweak the gates, allowing for custom exception frames or extra layers of indirection above the guest fault / IRQ handlers.

2006-09-26[PATCH] X86_64 monotonic_clock goes backwardsDimitri Sivanich
I've noticed some erratic behavior while testing the X86_64 version of monotonic_clock(). While spinning in a loop reading monotonic clock values (pinned to a single cpu) I noticed that the difference between subsequent values occasionally went negative (time going backwards). I found that in the following code: this_offset = get_cycles_sync(); /* FIXME: 1000 or 1000000? */ --> offset = (this_offset - last_offset)*1000 / cpu_khz; } return base + offset; the offset sometimes turns out to be 0, even though this_offset > last_offset. +Added fix From: Toyo Abe <toyoa@mvista.com> The x86_64-mm-monotonic-clock.patch in 2.6.18-rc4-mm2 made a change to the updating of monotonic_base. It now uses cycles_2_ns(). I suggest that a set_cyc2ns_scale() should be done prior to the setup_irq(). Because cycles_2_ns() can be called from the timer ISR right after the irq0 is enabled.

2006-09-26[PATCH] x86: error_code is not safe for kprobesPrasanna S.P
This patch moves the entry.S:error_entry to .kprobes.text section, since code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to entry.S::error_entry, that must be marked unsafe as well. This patch also moves all the ".previous.text" asm directives to ".previous" for kprobes section. AK: Following a similar i386 patch from Chuck Ebbert AK: Also merged Jeremy's fix in. +From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> KPROBE_ENTRY does a .section .kprobes.text, and expects its users to do a .previous at the end of the function. Unfortunately, if any code within the function switches sections, for example .fixup, then the .previous ends up putting all subsequent code into .fixup. Worse, any subsequent .fixup code gets intermingled with the code its supposed to be fixing (which is also in .fixup). It's surprising this didn't cause more havok. The fix is to use .pushsection/.popsection, so this stuff nests properly. A further cleanup would be to get rid of all .section/.previous pairs, since they're inherently fragile. +From: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Because code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to entry.S::error_code, that must be marked unsafe as well. The easiest way to do that is to move the page fault entry point to just before error_code and let it inherit the same section.
