In uv_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_uv.c),
the "WARN_ON(!in_atomic())" fails if CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled.
And CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled by default in the distribution that
most UV owners will use.
We could #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT the warning, but that is not good form.
And there seems to be no suitable fix to in_atomic() when CONFIG_PREMPT
is not on.
As Ingo commented:
> and we have no proper primitive to test for atomicity. (mainly
> because we dont know about atomicity on a non-preempt kernel)
So we drop the WARN_ON.

Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load
x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu
symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu
segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee.
This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the
first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the
first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range.
This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered
when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located
beyond 2GB on it.
This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such
that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic
allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate. New
PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as
the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and
having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after
minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case
performance.
x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving.
Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the
embedding percpu allocator commit.

Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module
percpu variables
This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk. When
setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number
of bytes right after the core static area which is available only
through a separate reserved allocator. This will be used primarily
for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited
relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside
the relocatable range.
If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and
isn't available for regular allocation. If the first chunk also
includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping
the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation. The first one
is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk.
Although they share the page map, their different area map
initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their
purposes.
If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled
like any other allocation.

Impact: reduce unnecessary memory usage on certain configurations
Embedding percpu allocator allocates unit_size *
smp_num_possible_cpus() bytes consecutively and use it for the first
chunk. However, if the static area is small, this can result in
excessive prellocated free space in the first chunk due to
PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE restriction.
This patch makes embedding percpu allocator preallocate only what's
necessary as described by PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE and return the
leftover to the bootmem allocator.

Impact: argument semantic cleanup
In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant
auto-sizing. It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0
dynamic reserve size is valid. Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated
from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and
malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted.
This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for
auto sizing.

Impact: fix bad frame in rt_sigreturn on 64-bit
After commit 97286a2b64725aac2d584ddd1f94871f9991d5a1 some applications

On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.
In both these cases, audit_syscall_entry() will use the wrong system
call number table and the wrong system call argument registers. This
could be used to circumvent a syscall audit configuration that filters
based on the syscall numbers or argument details.

- exit_thread
- flush_thread

and as bonus pickups:

- sys_vfork

Impact: remove 32-bit optimization to prepare unification
x86-32 and -64 differ in the way they context-switch tasks
with io permission bitmaps. x86-64 simply copies the next
tasks io bitmap into place (if any) on context switch. x86-32
invalidates the bitmap on context switch, so that the next
IO instruction will fault; at that point it installs the
appropriate IO bitmap.
This makes context switching IO-bitmap-using tasks a bit more
less expensive, at the cost of making the next IO instruction
slower due to the extra fault. This tradeoff only makes sense
if IO-bitmap-using processes are relatively common, but they
don't actually use IO instructions very often.
However, in a typical desktop system, the only process likely
to be using IO bitmaps is the X server, and nothing at all on
a server. Therefore the lazy context switch doesn't really win
all that much, and its just a gratuitious difference from
64-bit code.
This patch removes the lazy context switch, with a view to
unifying this code in a later change.

Impact: add better first percpu allocation for NUMA
On NUMA, embedding allocator can't be used as different units can't be
made to fall in the correct NUMA nodes. To use large page mapping,
each unit needs to be remapped. However, percpu areas are usually
much smaller than large page size and unused space hurts a lot as the
number of cpus grow. This allocator remaps large pages for each chunk
but gives back unused part to the bootmem allocator making the large
pages mapped twice.
This adds slightly to the TLB pressure but is much better than using
4k mappings while still being NUMA-friendly.
Ingo suggested that this would be the correct approach for NUMA.

Impact: add better first percpu allocation for !NUMA
On !NUMA, we can simply allocate contiguous memory and use it for the

percpu area and whatever falls into the first chunk and the
implementation is very simple too.

Impact: more latitude for first percpu chunk allocation
The first percpu chunk serves the kernel static percpu area and may or
may not contain extra room for further dynamic allocation.
Initialization of the first chunk needs to be done before normal
memory allocation service is up, so it has its own init path -
pcpu_setup_static().
It seems archs need more latitude while initializing the first chunk
for example to take advantage of large page mapping. This patch makes
the following changes to allow this.
* Define PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE to give arch hint about how much space
to reserve in the first chunk for further dynamic allocation.
* Rename pcpu_setup_static() to pcpu_setup_first_chunk().
* Make pcpu_setup_first_chunk() much more flexible by fetching page
pointer by callback and adding optional @unit_size, @free_size and
@base_addr arguments which allow archs to selectively part of chunk
initialization to their likings.

Impact: Cleanup
Checkin be44d2aabce2d62f72d5751d1871b6212bf7a1c7 eliminates the use of
a 16-bit stack for espfix. However, at least one instruction remained
that only operated on the low 16 bits of %esp.
This is not a bug per se because the kernel stack is always an aligned
4K or 8K block. Therefore it cannot cross 64K boundaries; this code,
in fact, relies strictly on that fact.
However, it's a lot cleaner (and, for that matter, smaller) to operate
on the entire 32-bit register.

works even if the table is in an unexpected place.
