2006-11-15[PATCH] Use delayed disable mode of ioapic edge triggered interruptsEric W. Biederman
Komuro reports that ISA interrupts do not work after a disable_irq(), causing some PCMCIA drivers to not work, with messages like eth0: Asix AX88190: io 0x300, irq 3, hw_addr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx eth0: found link beat eth0: autonegotiation complete: 100baseT-FD selected eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! ... Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> said: "Now, edge-triggered interrupts are a _lot_ harder to mask, because the Intel APIC is an unbelievable piece of sh*t, and has the edge-detect logic _before_ the mask logic, so if a edge happens _while_ the device is masked, you'll never ever see the edge ever again (unmasking will not cause a new edge, so you simply lost the interrupt). So when you "mask" an edge-triggered IRQ, you can't really mask it at all, because if you did that, you'd lose it forever if the IRQ comes in while you masked it. Instead, we're supposed to leave it active, and set a flag, and IF the IRQ comes in, we just remember it, and mask it at that point instead, and then on unmasking, we have to replay it by sending a self-IPI." This trivial patch solves the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-11-14[PATCH] x86-64: Fix race in exit_idleAndi Kleen

2006-11-14[PATCH] x86-64: Fix vgetcpu when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabledAndi Kleen
The vgetcpu per CPU initialization previously relied on CPU hotplug events for all CPUs to initialize the per CPU state. That only worked only on kernels with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU enabled. On the others some CPUs didn't get their state initialized properly and vgetcpu wouldn't work. Change the initialization sequence to instead run in a normal initcall (which runs after the normal CPU bootup) and initialize all running CPUs there. Later hotplug CPUs are still handled with an hotplug notifier. This actually simplifies the code somewhat. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2006-11-14[PATCH] x86: Add acpi_user_timer_override option for Asus boardsAndi Kleen
Timer overrides are normally disabled on Nvidia board because they are commonly wrong, except on new ones with HPET support. Unfortunately there are quite some Asus boards around that don't have HPET, but need a timer override. We don't know yet how to handle this transparently, but at least add a command line option to force the timer override and let them boot.

2006-11-14[PATCH] x86-64: setup saved_max_pfn correctly (kdump)Magnus Damm
x86_64: setup saved_max_pfn correctly 2.6.19-rc4 has broken CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP support on x86_64. It is impossible to read out the kernel contents from /proc/vmcore because saved_max_pfn is set to zero instead of the max_pfn value before the user map is setup. This happens because saved_max_pfn is initialized at parse_early_param() time, and at this time no active regions have been registered. save_max_pfn is setup from e820_end_of_ram(), more exact find_max_pfn_with_active_regions() which returns 0 because no regions exist.

2006-11-14[PATCH] x86-64: shorten the x86_64 boot setup GDT to what the comment saysSteven Rostedt
Stephen Tweedie, Herbert Xu, and myself have been struggling with a very nasty bug in Xen. But it also pointed out a small bug in the x86_64 kernel boot setup. The GDT limit being setup by the initial bzImage code when entering into protected mode is way too big. The comment by the code states that the size of the GDT is 2048, but the actual size being set up is much bigger (32768). This happens simply because of one extra '0'. Instead of setting up a 0x800 size, 0x8000 is set up. On bare metal this is fine because the CPU wont load any segments unless they are explicitly used. But unfortunately, this breaks Xen on vmx FV, since it (for now) blindly loads all the segments into the VMCS if they are less than the gdt limit. Since the real mode segments are around 0x3000, we are getting junk into the VMCS and that later causes an exception. Stephen Tweedie has written up a patch to fix the Xen side and will be submitting that to those folks. But that doesn't excuse the GDT limit being a magnitude too big.

2006-11-08[PATCH] htirq: refactor so we only have one function that writes to the chipEric W. Biederman
This refactoring actually optimizes the code a little by caching the value that we think the device is programmed with instead of reading it back from the hardware. Which simplifies the code a little and should speed things up a bit. This patch introduces the concept of a ht_irq_msg and modifies the architecture read/write routines to update this code.

2006-11-08x86-64: write IO APIC irq routing entries in correct orderLinus Torvalds
This is the x86-64 version of f9dadfa71bc594df09044da61d1c72701121d802 that did the same thing on i386. Since the "mask" bit is in the low word, when we write a new entry, we need to write the high word first, before we potentially unmask it. The exception is when we actually want to mask the interrupt, in which case we want to write the low word first to make sure that the high word doesn't change while the interrupt routing is still active.

2006-10-25[PATCH] x86-64: Only look at per_cpu data for online cpus.Eric W. Biederman
When I generalized __assign_irq_vector I failed to pay attention to what happens when you access a per cpu data structure for a cpu that is not online. It is an undefined case making any code that does it have undefined behavior as well. The code still needs to be able to allocate a vector across cpus that are not online to properly handle combinations like lowest priority interrupt delivery and cpu_hotplug. Not that we can do that today but the infrastructure shouldn't prevent it. So this patch updates the places where we touch per cpu data to only touch online cpus, it makes cpu vector allocation an atomic operation with respect to cpu hotplug, and it updates the cpu start code to properly initialize vector_irq so we don't have inconsistencies.

2006-10-25[PATCH] x86-64: Simplify the vector allocator.Eric W. Biederman
There is no reason to remember a per cpu position of which vector to try. Keeping a global position is simpler and more likely to result in a global vector allocation even if I don't need or require it. For level triggered interrupts this means we are less likely to acknowledge another cpus irq, and cause the level triggered irq to harmlessly refire. This simplification makes it easier to only access data structures of online cpus, by having fewer special cases to deal with. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: Revert timer routing behaviour back to 2.6.16 stateAndi Kleen
By default route the 8254 over the 8259 and only disable it on ATI boards where this causes double timer interrupts. This should unbreak some Nvidia boards where the timer doesn't seem to tick of it isn't enabled in the 8259. At least one VIA board also seemed to have a little trouble with the disabled 8259. For 2.6.20 we'll try both dynamically without black listing, but I think for .19 this is the safer approach because it has been already well tested in earlier kernels. This also makes the x86-64 behaviour the same as i386. Command line options can change all this of course. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

o A recent change to vmlinux.ld.S file broke kexec as now resulting vmlinux program headers are overlapping in physical address space. o Now all the vsyscall related sections are placed after data and after that mostly init data sections are placed. To avoid physical overlap among phdrs, there are three possible solutions. - Place vsyscall sections also in data phdrs instead of user - move vsyscal sections after init data in bss. - create another phdrs say data.init and move all the sections after vsyscall into this new phdr. o This patch implements the third solution.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: Put more than one cpu in TARGET_CPUSEric W. Biederman
TARGET_CPUS is the default irq routing poicy. It specifies which cpus the kernel should aim an irq at. In physflat delivery mode we can route an irq to a single cpu. But that doesn't mean our default policy should only be a single cpu is allowed. By allowing the irq routing code to select from multiple cpus this enables systems with more irqs then we can service on a single processor to actually work. I just audited and tested the code and irqbalance doesn't care, and the io_apic.c doesn't care if we have extra cpus in the mask. Everything will use or assume we are using the lowest numbered cpu in the mask if we can't use them all. So this should result in no behavior changes except on systems that need it.

Thanks to YH Lu for spotting this.

2006-10-21[PATCH] x86-64: fix page align in e820 allocatorVivek Goyal
Currently some code pieces assume that address returned by find_e820_area() are page aligned.

2006-10-14ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAITVenkatesh Pallipadi
Intel processors starting with the Core Duo support support processor native C-state using the MWAIT instruction. Refer: Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/253668.htm Platform firmware exports the support for Native C-state to OS using ACPI _PDC and _CST methods. Refer: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI: Interface Specification http://www.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/302223.htm With Processor Native C-state, we use 'MWAIT' instruction on the processor to enter different C-states (C1, C2, C3). We won't use the special IO ports to enter C-state and no SMM mode etc required to enter C-state. Overall this will mean better C-state support. One major advantage of using MWAIT for all C-states is, with this and "treat interrupt as break event" feature of MWAIT, we can now get accurate timing for the time spent in C1, C2, .. states.

2006-10-11[PATCH] mm: use symbolic names instead of indices for zone initialisationMel Gorman
Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off. The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86, x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2.

2006-10-09[PATCH] x86_64 irq: Scream but don't die if we receive an unexpected irqEric W. Biederman
Due to code bugs or misbehaving hardware it is possible that we can receive an interrupt that we have not mapped into a linux irq. Calling BUG when that happens is very rude, and if the problem is mild enough prevents anything else from getting done. So instead of calling BUG just scream loudly about the problem and continue running. We don't have enough knowledge to know which interrupt triggered this behavior so we don't acknowledge it. This will likely prevent a recurrence of the problem by jamming up the works with an unacknowledged interrupt. If the interrupt was something important it is quite possible that nothing productive will happen past this point. But it is now at least possible to keep working if the kernel can survive without the interrupt we dropped on the floor. Solutions like irqpoll should generally make dropped irqs non-fatal.

2006-10-08[PATCH] x86_64 irq: Allocate a vector across all cpus for genapic_flat.Eric W. Biederman
The problem we can't take advantage of lowest priority delivery mode if the vectors are allocated for only one cpu at a time. Nor can we work around hardware that assumes lowest priority delivery mode is always used with several cpus. So this patch introduces the concept of a vector_allocation_domain. A set of cpus that will receive an irq on the same vector. Currently the code for implementing this is placed in the genapic structure so we can vary this depending on how we are using the io_apics. This allows us to restore the previous behaviour of genapic_flat without removing the benefits of having separate vector allocation for large machines. This should also fix the problem report where a hyperthreaded cpu was receving the irq on the wrong hyperthread when in logical delivery mode because the previous behaviour is restored. This patch properly records our allocation of the first 16 irqs to the first 16 available vectors on all cpus. This should be fine but it may run into problems with multiple interrupts at the same interrupt level. Except for some badly maintained comments in the code and the behaviour of the interrupt allocator I have no real understanding of that problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-08[PATCH] i386/x86_64: Remove global IO_APIC_VECTOREric W. Biederman
Which vector an irq is assigned to now varies dynamically and is not needed outside of io_apic.c. So remove the possibility of accessing the information outside of io_apic.c and remove the silly macro that makes looking for users of irq_vector difficult. The fact this compiles ensures there aren't any more pieces of the old CONFIG_PCI_MSI weirdness that I failed to remove. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-06[PATCH] x86_64 irq_regs fixAndrew Morton
smp_apic_timer_interrupt() needs to stack the pt_regs* for profile_tick. If any other of those APIC interrupt handlers want to run get_irq_regs() then their C entrypoint handlers will need the same treatment.

2006-10-05[PATCH] x86-64: Fix FPU corruptionAndi Kleen
This reverts an earlier patch that was found to cause FPU state corruption. I think the corruption happens because unlazy_fpu() can cause FPU exceptions and when it happens after the current switch some processing would affect the state in the wrong process. Thanks to Douglas Crosher and Tom Hughes for testing. Cc: jbeulich@novell.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
