2006-06-08[PATCH] Fix HPET operation on 32-bit NVIDIA platformsAndy Currid
From: "Andy Currid" <ACurrid@nvidia.com> This patch fixes a kernel panic during boot that occurs on NVIDIA platforms that have HPET enabled. When HPET is enabled, the standard timer IRQ is routed to IOAPIC pin 2 and is advertised as such in the ACPI APIC table - but an earlier workaround in the kernel was ignoring this override. The fix is to honor timer IRQ overrides from ACPI when HPET is detected on an NVIDIA platform.

2006-05-21[PATCH] i386 kdump boot cpu physical apicid fixVivek Goyal
o Kdump second kernel boot fails after a system crash if second kernel is UP and acpi=off and if crash occurred on a non-boot cpu. o Issue here is that MP tables report boot cpu lapic id as 0 but second kernel is booting on a different processor and MP table data is stale in this context. Hence apic_id_registered() check fails in setup_local_APIC() when called from APIC_init_uniprocessor(). o Problem is not seen if ACPI is enabled as in that case boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from the LAPIC. o Problem is not seen with SMP kernels as well because in this case also boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from LAPIC. (smp_boot_cpus()). o The problem is fixed by reading boot_cpu_physical_apicid from LAPIC if it is a UP kernel and CRASH_DUMP is enabled.

2006-05-08[PATCH] x86_64: avoid IRQ0 ioapic pin collisionKimball Murray
The patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI interrupt entry, which gets re-used, and the IRQ is assigned to another unrelated device. The patch corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided. Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up. The VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices. The patch corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

2006-04-20[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Fix x87 information leak between processesAndi Kleen
AMD K7/K8 CPUs only save/restore the FOP/FIP/FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE when an exception is pending. This means the value leak through context switches and allow processes to observe some x87 instruction state of other processes. This was actually documented by AMD, but nobody recognized it as being different from Intel before. The fix first adds an optimization: instead of unconditionally calling FNCLEX after each FXSAVE test if ES is pending and skip it when not needed. Then do a x87 load from a kernel variable to clear FOP/FIP/FDP. This means other processes always will only see a constant value defined by the kernel in their FP state. I took some pain to make sure to chose a variable that's already in L1 during context switch to make the overhead of this low. Also alternative() is used to patch away the new code on CPUs who don't need it. Patch for both i386/x86-64. The problem was discovered originally by Jan Beulich. Richard Brunner provided the basic code for the workarounds, with contribution from Jan.

When nolapic was passed or the local APIC was disabled for another reason ACPI would still parse the IO-APICs until these were explicitely disabled with noapic. Usually this resulted in a non booting configuration unless "nolapic noapic" was used. I also disabled the local APIC parsing in this case, although that's only cosmetic (suppresses a few printks) This hopefully makes nolapic work in all cases.

While cleaning up parisc_ksyms.c earlier, I noticed that strpbrk wasn't being exported from lib/string.c.

2006-04-11[PATCH] swsusp: don't require bigsmpAshok Raj
Switching to automatic bigsmp causes a misleading error message, that more then 8 cpus are detected, and user needs to select either X86_GENERICARCH or X86_BIGSMP to handle. Reason is we switched to bigsmp to avoid IP race when new cpu is comming up. [bigsmp is nothing but using physical flat mode that can work for 1 .. 255 cpus] [default is X86_PC, that uses logical flat mode up to 8 CPUs max] Current x86_64 code uses bigsmp as default when hotplug is enabled. It would be preferable to make bigsmp as default, and work the dependencies of other related code like SMP_SUSPEND, and some related to memory hotplug code for i386. Current logical flat mode doesnt use shortcuts that cause the race by using the send_IPI_mask() instead of shortcuts when HOTPLUG_CPU is enabled. In the meantime this patch is the path of lease resistance. We will switch to bigsmp default sometime soon, when we get to work it again.

2006-04-09Move request_standard_resources() back to before PCI probingLinus Torvalds
This effectively undoes the PCI resource allocation changes done in commit b408cbc704352eccee301e1103b23203ba1c3a0e, but leaves the cleanups of that commit in place. We're going back to marking the resources reported by e820 busy _before_ doing PCI probing, so that any PCI resource that clashes with the BIOS- reported memory map will be reloacted to a non-clashing area. The reason? Larry Finger reports that his laptop has the cardbus controller set up by the BIOS so that it conflicts with the e820 memory map, and needs to be relocated. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6337 for more details. We'll have to work out how to handle the fbcon problem that caused that commit in the first place in some other way.
