2008-07-05x86 ACPI: fix resume from suspend to RAM on uniprocessor x86-64Rafael J. Wysocki
Since the trampoline code is now used for ACPI resume from suspend to RAM, the trampoline page tables have to be fixed up during boot not only on SMP systems, but also on UP systems that use the trampoline.

2008-07-05x86 ACPI: normalize segment descriptor register on resumeH. Peter Anvin
Some Dell laptops enter resume with apparent garbage in the segment descriptor registers (almost certainly the result of a botched transition from protected to real mode.) The only way to clean that up is to enter protected mode ourselves and clean out the descriptor registers. This fixes resume on Dell XPS M1210 and Dell D620.

2008-07-03x86: fix Intel Mac booting with EFIHugh Dickins
Fedora reports that mem_init()'s zap_low_mappings(), extended to SMP in 61165d7a035f6571c7576e7f51e7230157724c8d x86: fix app crashes after SMP resume causes 32-bit Intel Mac machines to reboot very early when booting with EFI. The EFI code appears to manage low mappings for itself when needed; but like many before it, confuses PSE with PAE. So it has only been mapping half the space it needed when PSE but not PAE. This remained unnoticed until we moved the SMP zap_low_mappings() before efi_enter_virtual_mode(). Presumably could have been noticed years ago if anyone ran a UP kernel on such machines?

2008-06-30x86: fix cpu hotplug crashZhang, Yanmin
Vegard Nossum reported crashes during cpu hotplug tests: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121413950227884&w=4 In function _cpu_up, the panic happens when calling __raw_notifier_call_chain at the second time. Kernel doesn't panic when calling it at the first time. If just say because of nr_cpu_ids, that's not right. By checking the source code, I found that function do_boot_cpu is the culprit. Consider below call chain: _cpu_up=>__cpu_up=>smp_ops.cpu_up=>native_cpu_up=>do_boot_cpu. So do_boot_cpu is called in the end. In do_boot_cpu, if boot_error==true, cpu_clear(cpu, cpu_possible_map) is executed. So later on, when _cpu_up calls __raw_notifier_call_chain at the second time to report CPU_UP_CANCELED, because this cpu is already cleared from cpu_possible_map, get_cpu_sysdev returns NULL. Many resources are related to cpu_possible_map, so it's better not to change it. Below patch against 2.6.26-rc7 fixes it by removing the bit clearing in cpu_possible_map.

2008-06-24x86: KVM guest: Use the paravirt clocksource structs and functionsGerd Hoffmann
This patch updates the kvm host code to use the pvclock structs and functions, thereby making it compatible with Xen. The patch also fixes an initialization bug: on SMP systems the per-cpu has two different locations early at boot and after CPU bringup. kvmclock must take that in account when registering the physical address within the host.

2008-06-24x86: Add structs and functions for paravirt clocksourceGerd Hoffmann
This patch adds structs for the paravirt clocksource ABI used by both xen and kvm (pvclock-abi.h). It also adds some helper functions to read system time and wall clock time from a paravirtual clocksource (pvclock.[ch]). They are based on the xen code. They are enabled using CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK. Subsequent patches of this series will put the code in use.

2008-06-19x86, 32-bit: fix boot failure on TSC-less processorsMikael Pettersson
Booting 2.6.26-rc6 on my 486 DX/4 fails with a "BUG: Int 6" (invalid opcode) and a kernel halt immediately after the kernel has been uncompressed. The BUG shows EIP pointing to an rdtsc instruction in native_read_tsc(), invoked from native_sched_clock(). (This error occurs so early that not even the serial console can capture it.) A bisection showed that this bug first occurs in 2.6.26-rc3-git7, via commit 9ccc906c97e34fd91dc6aaf5b69b52d824386910: >x86: distangle user disabled TSC from unstable > >tsc_enabled is set to 0 from the command line switch "notsc" and from >the mark_tsc_unstable code. Seperate those functionalities and replace >tsc_enable with tsc_disable. This makes also the native_sched_clock() >decision when to use TSC understandable. > >Preparatory patch to solve the sched_clock() issue on 32 bit. > >Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> The core reason for this bug is that native_sched_clock() gets called before tsc_init(). Before the commit above, tsc_32.c used a "tsc_enabled" variable which defaulted to 0 == disabled, and which only got enabled late in tsc_init(). Thus early calls to native_sched_clock() would skip the TSC and use jiffies instead. After the commit above, tsc_32.c uses a "tsc_disabled" variable which defaults to 0, meaning that the TSC is Ok to use. Early calls to native_sched_clock() now erroneously try to use the TSC on !cpu_has_tsc processors, leading to invalid opcode exceptions. My proposed fix is to initialise tsc_disabled to a "soft disabled" state distinct from the hard disabled state set up by the "notsc" kernel option. This fixes the native_sched_clock() problem. It also allows tsc_init() to be simplified: instead of setting tsc_disabled = 1 on every error return, we just set tsc_disabled = 0 once when all checks have succeeded. I've verified that this lets my 486 boot again. I've also verified that a Core2 machine still uses the TSC as clocksource after the patch.

Somehow (as described below) TS_USEDFPU is set but the fpu is not allocated or freed. Another possible FPU pre-emption issue with the sleazy FPU optimization which was benign before but not so anymore, with the dynamic FPU allocation patch. New task is getting exec'd and it is prempted at the below point. flush_thread() { ... /* * Forget coprocessor state.. */ clear_fpu(tsk); <----- Preemption point clear_used_math(); ... } Now when it context switches in again, as the used_math() is still set and fpu_counter can be > 5, we will do a math_state_restore() which sets the task's TS_USEDFPU. After it continues from the above preemption point it does clear_used_math() and much later free_thread_xstate(). Now, at the next context switch, it is quite possible that xstate is null, used_math() is not set and TS_USEDFPU is still set. This will trigger unlazy_fpu() causing kernel oops. Fix this by clearing tsk's fpu_counter before clearing task's fpu.

2008-06-12provide rtc_cmos platform deviceStas Sergeev
Recently (around 2.6.25) I've noticed that RTC no longer works for me. It turned out this is because I use pnpacpi=off kernel option to work around the parport_pc bugs. I always did so, but RTC used to work fine in the past, and now it have regressed. The patch fixes the problem by creating the platform device for the RTC when PNP is disabled. This may also help running the PNP-enabled kernel on an older PCs.

It would be interesting to see where the int3 comes from. Too bad, lockdep doesn't provide the register dump. The stacktrace also doesn't go further than the int3(), I wonder if this int3 came from userspace? The ltrace readme says "software breakpoints, like gdb", so I guess this is the case.

2008-06-10x86, pci-dma.c: don't always add __GFP_NORETRY to gfpMiquel van Smoorenburg
Currently arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c always adds __GFP_NORETRY to the allocation flags, because it wants to be reasonably sure not to deadlock when calling alloc_pages(). But really that should only be done in two cases: - when allocating memory in the lower 16 MB DMA zone. If there's no free memory there, waiting or OOM killing is of no use - when optimistically trying an allocation in the DMA32 zone when dma_mask < DMA_32BIT_MASK hoping that the allocation happens to fall within the limits of the dma_mask Also blindly adding __GFP_NORETRY to the the gfp variable might not be a good idea since we then also use it when calling dma_ops->alloc_coherent(). Clearing it might also not be a good idea, dma_alloc_coherent()'s caller might have set it on purpose. The gfp variable should not be clobbered.

2008-06-04x86, fpu: fix CONFIG_PREEMPT=y corruption of application's FPU stackSuresh Siddha
Jürgen Mell reported an FPU state corruption bug under CONFIG_PREEMPT, and bisected it to commit v2.6.19-1363-gacc2076, "i386: add sleazy FPU optimization". Add tsk_used_math() checks to prevent calling math_state_restore() which can sleep in the case of !tsk_used_math(). This prevents making a blocking call in __switch_to(). Apparently "fpu_counter > 5" check is not enough, as in some signal handling and fork/exec scenarios, fpu_counter > 5 and !tsk_used_math() is possible. It's a side effect though. This is the failing scenario: process 'A' in save_i387_ia32() just after clear_used_math() Got an interrupt and pre-empted out. At the next context switch to process 'A' again, kernel tries to restore the math state proactively and sees a fpu_counter > 0 and !tsk_used_math() This results in init_fpu() during the __switch_to()'s math_state_restore() And resulting in fpu corruption which will be saved/restored (save_i387_fxsave and restore_i387_fxsave) during the remaining part of the signal handling after the context switch.

2008-05-17x86: disable mwait for AMD family 10H/11H CPUsThomas Gleixner
The previous revert of 0c07ee38c9d4eb081758f5ad14bbffa7197e1aec left out the mwait disable condition for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs. Andreas Herrman said: It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong. Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core. If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never happen. Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here. It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU families like it was introduced with commit f039b754714a422959027cb18bb33760eb8153f0 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD Family 10) Re-add the AMD families 10H/11H check and disable the mwait usage for those.

2008-05-13x86: fix app crashes after SMP resumeHugh Dickins
After resume on a 2cpu laptop, kernel builds collapse with a sed hang, sh or make segfault (often on 20295564), real-time signal to cc1 etc. Several hurdles to jump, but a manually-assisted bisect led to -rc1's d2bcbad5f3ad38a1c09861bca7e252dde7bb8259 x86: do not zap_low_mappings in __smp_prepare_cpus. Though the low mappings were removed at bootup, they were left behind (with Global flags helping to keep them in TLB) after resume or cpu online, causing the crashes seen. Reinstate zap_low_mappings (with local __flush_tlb_all) for each cpu_up on x86_32. This used to be serialized by smp_commenced_mask: that's now gone, but a low_mappings flag will do. No need for native_smp_cpus_done to repeat the zap: let mem_init zap BSP's low mappings just like on UP. (In passing, fix error code from native_cpu_up: do_boot_cpu returns a variety of diagnostic values, Dprintk what it says but convert to -EIO. And save_pg_dir separately before zap_low_mappings: doesn't matter now, but zapping twice in succession wiped out resume's swsusp_pg_dir.) That worked well on the duo and one quad, but wouldn't boot 3rd or 4th cpu on P4 Xeon, oopsing just after unlock_ipi_call_lock. The TLB flush IPI now being sent reveals a long-standing bug: the booting cpu has its APIC readied in smp_callin at the top of start_secondary, but isn't put into the cpu_online_map until just before that unlock_ipi_call_lock. So native_smp_call_function_mask to online cpus would send_IPI_allbutself, including the cpu just coming up, though it has been excluded from the count to wait for: by the time it handles the IPI, the call data on native_smp_call_function_mask's stack may well have been overwritten. So fall back to send_IPI_mask while cpu_online_map does not match cpu_callout_map: perhaps there's a better APICological fix to be made at the start_secondary end, but I wouldn't know that.
